Logging Arrays to database as NON Binary

[david_feo]

Hi All,

one last try....

Thanks to several forum posts and manuals, we managed to:

- Create an own step type, holding scope trace data in arrays of numbers

- create a new table in the database

- log the traces into the new table in the database

But: We may not store binary fields into the database. How can we force the teststand logging to iterate through the result array and store the values as numbers, a new entry for every value?

Looking forward to any hints

David

Hi David,

the TestStand help contains the following chapter: Logging Binary and String Database Values

When you select the elements to log, you can choose a format in which to store the actual data.

Please let me know if this is what your were looking for.

Thanks

Peter

Hi Peter,

thank you for your reply. This helps to write an array of numbers as a varchar or BSTR into one single database field. What we would like to have, is to have a new database field filled with every array member. Is there a chance to let teststand iterate over the array members?
