storeValue action not working [message #987843] Wed, 28 November 2012 06:14 Go to next message

Trying to store a value from a Spinner widget (SWT) using the ub_ctx_storeValue action. On object mapping, jubula identifies it as 'Graphics Component' (org.eclipse.swt.widgets.Spinner)
However, on executing, the test fails with the error : Operation not supported by the selected toolkit'

I'm currently using the rcp toolkit. I tried changing it to 'swt' but the AUT fails to startup( eclipse.exe in this case)

Please advise

Just so you know, a spinner widget is a component having a numeric field along with two small buttons that can increase or decrease the numeric value in the field.

I know the reason now..

Its because the spinner widget has default datatype of Integer (int) while jubula action storeValue assumes String. Looks like jubula is unable to perform an implicit conversion.

Any way i can store integer values ?

Hi,

This one is new to me - I would have thought that we take the text regardless of its type. That it ends up as a string is logical (to me at least Wink ). I'll check and get back to you.

Best regards,
Alex

Hi,

I've spoken to a developer and it would appear that the spinner is supported only as a "graphics component" (i.e. you can click it, check its existence etc), but it is not currently possible to e.g. check its text, store a value - these are actions on "Component with Text".

However, it *should* be possible to work around this Wink If you use "Store Property" (on Graphics Component) and use the text property of the spinner, then you should get the right result...

HTH,
Alex

The property should be called "text" (I should have put it in quotes in the last post).

Thank you for the prompt reply.. A final call for help -
storeProperty stores the text in a 'Variable' data type (eg VAR_1). Whenever i try to reference this variable, (for eg: in checkStringValues action) it displays error saying incompatible datatype
How do i copy this value to another String or integer parameter

Hi,

It sounds like you need the action to check numeric values instead of string values.

HTH,
Alex

I am also trying to access the value of a spinner field, but using a property value of 'text' gives me a Configuration Error. am I missing something? i tried in single quotes, double quotes, all caps, all lower, initial caps, but nothing works, always the same result.
thanks!

Hi Anthony

are you by any chance working with Swing? The discussions was on using SWT. The Swing Spinner doesn't have a Text property, it uses Value instead (see http://docs.oracle.com/javase/7/docs/api/javax/swing/JSpinner.html).

Ah, then this could be something else. Can you click on the spinner widget? My gut feeling is that you'd get the same error there as well. If so, then see if adding the jar from this ticket helps. If not, please enter a new ticket.

Thanks!
Alex
