Disable report creation programatically

[Sgy1]

I have a customized user interface in C# for Test Stand. From that I need to enable/disable the option for generating report after coompletion of Single Pass/ Test UUT. Is it possible to do so.

Hi,

You can try StationOptions.DisableResults.

Alhough I don't really understand your question.

Do you want to stop the reporting of the results that have just been collected from a test run?

Hi! Thanks for the reply. My requiement is : In TestStand Sequence Editor -> Configure -> Report Options dialog, we have an option 'Diable Report Generation'. Is there any interface to do this from my C# code. Regards Sgy

Hi,

StationOptions.DisableResults should do the trick.

Didnt work by setting DisableResults to true

Does that mean you ran a sequence file and it still generated a Report?

Hi,

What I believe you need to do is actual alter the TestStandModelReportOptions file. 

The Tag is [ReportOptions] and the item is DisableReportGeneration=True to disable report.

I think you need to get a reference to the ConfigFile using Engine.ConfigFile.

As it getting late, I'll check this out tomorrow.

Hi,

Looking at changing the DisableReportGeneration boolean in the Report Options.

You could use the PropertyObject.ReadEx method to load the configuration data into memory, change the Disable ReportGeneration to True then call the PropertyObject.Write method to save the changed value. (see attached picture - this I have done in a Sequence by calling the ReadReportOptionsDefaultEx() in modelsupport2.dll and then calling WriteReportOptionsDefaultEx(). I copied the first step from Get Report Options sequence found in the ProcessModel sequence file "SequentialModel.seq")

I believe you want to do this in your UI. Therefore your would need to call the relavant API calls that are performed in the  DLL. Have a look at report.c. I'll let you convert to C#

Hope this helps
