return string from DLL to test stand

[Yuri_IL]

Hi, I work with TestStand3.5

I have a question regards following issue ->

1. I called to remote DLL and pass some parameters, after that the 'called' DLL returned to me also some value.

I did not success to get that returned value from DLL. In other words i do not know where in TS 3.5

i can find that returned variable(value) from called DLL(where it situated...).

2. I can find that variable(value) only on a RunTime or also after finishing of execution of my step/sequence?

3. Where is the place in TestStand that i can find ALL  RunTime variables(include returned values from called DLL's)???

To better understanding of my question I attached a screenshot of my issue:

1. I want to get ExecutionSessionID that my 'called' DLL will return to me

2. I defined Local variable ->Session_ID

3. As you can see at screenshot i put Locals.Session_ID to the value of ExecutionSessionID but i does not work 😞

   I only see after execution that value of Locals.Seession_ID="Done" but it is not the right value that 'called' DLL returns...

Hi, i solved the problem ->

In that case i must use a station global and not any other.  This will write the value to a file, which will be stable until it is overwritten by the next execution

After that i got from that station global the value that i need from 'called DLL'.
