[zator]

Hi again,

I have a simple question. I would like to send object\UI elements to user code action function?? Is is possible only by sending xPath as a string??

Hi Pawel,

Do you mean as a parameter to the user code action in the recording view?

Hi Markus,

Yes that is what i want to achieve. Additionally, this object can be in recording repository.

Hi Pawel,

This is unfortunately in the recording not possible, you can just use strings as arguments.

Am I missing something here?
Could you not pass the object rxpath to the user code and use a FindSingle to see if it is present and get the object pointer?

I must be misunderstanding the requirement. If so, please let me know.

Hi,

You currently just can pass strings to the UserCode actions of the action table, but in order to pass a RxPath you can convert the RxPath to a String with "toString" or with the "ToResolvedString" method of the RxPath object.

Hi orbistest,

It IS possible to send xPath as parameter of user-code-action and everything works fine!
My problem was that i had to explain it to people using recorder who did not know what xPath is and I was interested if its possible to send items from reposiroty directly to user-code-actions.

Hi,

Could it be that you talk about a normal method in a UserCodeModule and not about a UserCode Action from a Recording?

Hi Markus,

Could you please help me. I also wanted to pass the repository item as the argument to my user code.But as the argument is of type string it throws exception. So please suggest how to proceed.


Thanks
