How to programmatically add a sequence file to a project

[Guiro]

Hi,
Using Teststand C++ API, I would like to add a sequence file to the current project in the current workspace.

My sequence file has been created using engine->NewSequenceFile(); and saved in the path "Path" (as std::string).
I try to create a new workspace file this way :

engine->CurrentWorkspaceFile->GetRootWorkspaceObject()->NewFile( _com_util::ConvertStringToBSTR(Path.c_str()) );

But this line throw a com exception "Unknown error 0xFFFFBC63" which should correspond to error -17309

What is the correct way to do this ?

Thank you.

hello

Could you provide the code you're using, for example the order of functions you're calling?

So that we could look closer at your project.

Thanks

Thank you for your answer.

Here the code I'm using :

    string newSeqName = "myNewSequence";
    TS::SequenceFilePtr newSeqFile = _currentContext.engine->NewSequenceFile();
    TS::WorkspaceObjectPtr workspacePtr = _currentContext.engine->CurrentWorkspaceFile->GetRootWorkspaceObject();
    string chapterPath = getFolderFromFilePath(string(workspacePtr->GetPath())) + "\\";
    chapterPath += newSeqName + ".seq";
    try
    {
        newSeqFile->Save(chapterPath.c_str());
    } catch (_com_error const & e) {
        gcLogModuleError("Error on save :  %s", e.ErrorMessage());
    }
    TS::WorkspaceObjectPtr newSeqObj;
    try {
        newSeqObj = workspacePtr->NewFile( _com_util::ConvertStringToBSTR(chapterPath.c_str()) );
    } catch (_com_error const & e) {
        gcLogModuleError("got error on newfile :  %s ", e.ErrorMessage());
    }
    workspacePtr->InsertObject(newSeqObj, workspacePtr->NumContainedObjects);
    _currentContext.engine->CurrentWorkspaceFile->AsPropertyObjectFile()->IncChangeCount();
    _currentContext.engine->ReleaseSequenceFile(newSeqFile);
    _currentContext.engine->SaveAllModifiedSeqFiles(0);

this code saves in the right place my file "NewSequence.seq"

Generate error TS_Err_IllegalOperationOnValue

Hello,

Looking at your code, the way to script TestStand is to - create a workspace, the create a project then create a sequence. It doesn't appear in your code that you create a project.

Please could you try this using the Workspace.Objectfile.Newfile(path du projet)? The project file extension is .tpj.

Thanks

Hello,

I want to add a sequence to the current project of the current workspace but GetProjectFile() always give me an invalid pointer in :

_currentContext.engine->CurrentWorkspaceFile->RootWorkspaceObject->GetProjectFile()

If I create a new project, I don't see how to add a sequence to it once I got my TS::WorkspaceObjectPtr.

Is there documentation/example on this subject ?

Thank you.
