how to suppress warning about files changed outside teststand

[MichaelAivaliotis]

Well, all I can say is... this is a bug.

I would assume that based on the ReloadFromDisk method, it would perform the same action without popping up a dialog. Please consider fixing this so it can suppress the dialog in a future version of TestStand or change your documentation. I know that NI can do this because for some reason, the same logic that you describe for the users file (race condition) does not seem to apply to the station globals file.

When I do a CommitGlobalsToDisk, I set the promptOnSaveConflicts to false and then I do a ReloadGlobals. Everything works fine without any prompts.

Have there been any recent change to the TestStand app regarding this? This would be very useful. There is a way to increase the warning interval but, eventually, the warnings sill pop up.

Thanks.

Ted 724,

Thanks for contacting National Instruments!

Which version of TestStand are you currently using?  Are you encountering the same issue as mentioned in this older thread or are you simply inquiring as to whether or not corrective action steps were taken?

I can definitely look into this for you but if you're using an upgraded version of TestStand (we're currently up to TestStand 4.0) I'll need to know which version that is to see if actions were taken in regard to a fix for that particular version.  Let me know!
