Reload automation server doesn't work for all steps

Hi all,
I'm creating ActiveX Servers using Visual Basic 6. In TestStand 3.1 I have steps that call methods from an automation server and I have steps that get properties of an automation server.
When I create a new version of an automation server, I open one of the steps that use the automation server and press "Reload", so that is uses the latest version. TestStand Automatically updates all the rest of the steps that use the same automation server, but for some reason it only updates the steps that call a method and not the steps that Get a property. Why is this?

Frank -
When you configure a TestStand step to call an automation server, it stores the specific ID information for the server and the class and method/property that you are calling. If the server is created with MSVB the compatibility mode of the project defines whether MSVB alters this information after each recompile of the project. TestStand tries to find the server, class and method/property after you compile the project each time. If you take a look at the Compatibility Options for Visual Basic section in Chapter 5 of the TestStand 3.x Reference Manual you will find more information on this. The section describes the various compatibility modes Visual Basic projects. In a nut shell, it is recommended to use Project Compatibility while developing code and switch to Binary Compatibility when you release a system. When you switch to Binary Compatibility you should keep it there and only add new methods or classes. You should not change the names or prototypes of existing methods or properties for this breaks binary compatibility. In my previous development, it would have been nice if VB exposed the control of these IDs, but they do not.

  • "Move Current Track Automation Data to Region" doesn't work for all

    I have been using the 'Move Current Track Automation Data to Region' and while it works fine for some types of automation data like channel volume, pan and some plugin parameters, it doesn't work for all of them.
    I haven't done exhaustive research into which parameters work and which don't, but most of the parameters for individual voices within Ultrabeat don't - which is annoying as that is what I was trying to use it for.
    Any ideas about this, or workarounds?

    OK, well an update on this in case anyone's interested.
    With some further experimentation I have discovered that this problem did not exist in Logic 7 - ie you can move current track automation data for individual Ultrabeat voices to the region.
    It's also possible to move automation data for individual Ultrabeat voices using 'Move All Track Automation Data to Region,' so I suppose this is a kind of workaround, though it can be annoying if you don't want to move all track automation data.
    I'm now assuming this is a bug in Logic 8; is there any way to convert a Logic 8 project to work in Logic 7, as this along with the touch tracks bug is making working in Logic 8 very frustrating?

  • Creativ Cloud for Teams doesn´t work for all members

    Why do the products work for all members except oe? The test version is started here.

    Hi YES-2013,
    Welcome to the Community!

  • Exchange server doesn't work at all after upgrade to 8.1.1

    Hi there,
    Upgraded to 8.1.1 yesterday and ever since getting mail from an Exchange server (not GMail as exchange, real exchange) doesn't work.
    I have tried removing account and re-adding it again, it authenticates, all is dandy, but it never pulls the folders list or the mail at all.
    Refreshing says "Updated just now", and then zilch, nothing, nada.
    Can someone please help?
    Thanks,
    Vlad
    PS. I tried resetting, wifi/3g, push vs fetch, all the standard knobs and whistles - nothing helps.

    I just got my emails again, not sure what did the magic, but this is what I did:
    - Downloaded my enterprise certificates (device provisioining) - Maybe you don't have to do this step.
    - Reset the iPAD (press power button and menu button until you see apple logo -> this doesn't erase data on the iPAD)
    - Deleted the exchange account
    - Created the exchange account - at this time the iPAD could confirm credentials
    After a couple of minutes emails started coming again!
    Btw, I had this issue after upgrading to iOS 8.1.1.

  • Exported UTI doesn't work for all account

    Hello,
    We have a QuickTime component that permits to play files with our video codec. These files also have a specific extension.
    It works fine with QuickTime 7 that allows "anything" content type. But on Snow Leopard, with QuickTime 10, we can not open file with our private extension. When we open QuickTime, our files are in grey and we can not click on it.
    What I've done is to export an UTI from my application info.plist file. This export says that my UTI with the right filename extension is conform to "public.movie". I have done it from the original admin account of the machine.
    What is strange, is that this modification has an impact on the others accounts I have created (standard or admin) but not on this original admin account.
    I mean, on the others accounts, the files with our extension are well seen as movie file and can be played with QuickTime Player. So the Uniform Type I export is well interpreted when I log with a different account.
    I do not understand what is wrong with this original account. The behavior is also the same if I am loged as root.
    I have made a repair disk permissions but it didn't change anything.
    Right now I don't know what to do in order to have this export to work for this particular account...
    Thanks in advance for your help,
    Loïc

    Use Quicktime 7 on the Snow Leopard Computers to playback this video. On the Snow Leopard computer quicktime 7 should be in the Utility folder. If not download Quicktime 7 for Snow Leopard:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/DL92
    If some reason you can't download Quicktime 7 here how you can install it from the Snow Leopard installation disc:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht3678#1
    Scroll to the top of the page for instruction on how to install Qt 7.
    Quicktime X can't playback all video formats/codecs. It's limited to a few so use Qt 7.

  • Flash Player doesn't work for all accounts

    I am having a problem like others as described in this topic:
    http://www.adobe.com/cfusion/webforums/forum/messageview.cfm?forumid=44&catid=184&threadid =1262196&enterthread=y
    Namely, Flash Player works fine for my main administrative
    account, but does not work for my other accounts (I am running
    Windows XP Home Edition). As suggested in the above topic, I have
    tried uninstalling Flash (for all users) then re-installing it.
    This did not help. The above topic also suggests that my registry
    may be corrupted and referenced the following technical article for
    a solution.
    http://www.adobe.com/cfusion/knowledgebase/index.cfm?id=fb1634cb
    That article instructs you to use a Microsoft download called
    SubInACL to repair the registry. However, the article specifically
    states "Note: Do not run the Microsoft SubInACL tool on Windows XP
    Home. This tool should only be used with Windows XP Pro". So it
    will not help me since I'm running XP Home Edition.
    Is there any solution to the corrupted registry problem if
    you're running XP HomeEdition?

    I had the same problem none of that works...
    This is what I did:
    Using the adm profile, go to the windows folder, find the
    regedit icon, open it, then scroll all the way down until you find
    the shockwave files. Right click on each and the click on
    permissions, give each user persmission and do it for all the
    shockwave flash floders you see, it should be about 9.
    good luck.
    need help call me 305 228 7574, EST until 10pm.

  • Ftp to a local ftp server doesn't work for VIREX 7.7

    Has anyone else experienced this and know of a work-around? I have mac 10.3.9 machines not connected to the internet and running Virex 7.7. I have them setup to access signature files I download to a local ftp server on our subnet. This works fine.
    We've installed a couple of Tiger (10.4.4) machines and this setup for Virex does not work. It acts like it can't see the ftp server. When I use Terminal I can ftp to the ftp server and transfer files that way. Why doesn't Virex 7.7 successfully download signature files from the ftp server?
    Any suggestions?

    I have been having the same problem. Our McAfee rep sent me a patch that apparently fixes the problem. Since McAfee issues DATs on Wednesdays, I ran the the e-update yesterday morning. It all seemed to run too quickly, but I checked the dates of the vscan files and they were correct. The files are:
    names.dat
    clean.dat
    scan.dat
    They located in /usr/local/vscanx/ (hidden files - you can download "Wizzard" to show/hide files).
    I believe you can download the patch at:

  • Preview search doesn't work for all ASCII characters

    The title pretty much says it all. The behavior is completely broken. Any searches for words that contain a non-letter, non-number ASCII, non-standard punctuation character, e.g., @#$%^&*()+, kind of ignores the special characters. For example:
    Find: C++
    Finds all pages with the text "C++", but doesn't highlight that text. Instead, it highlights all "C" and "c" characters, and the find counts for those pages are the number of C characters. Note that it neither highlights nor counts C characters on pages that don't contain "C++"
    Find: "C++"
    Finds about half the pages and the find count is correct, but it highlights only C characters that are followed by ++ OR other special characters, e.g. it highlights the C in "C#".

    By all means tell Apple it does not perform according to their documentation when you ask them to fix it.

  • HT1391 "File Get Info" doesn't work for all items in iTunes.

    I have some iTunesU videos where the Get Info is grayed out (not available).How do I find out where these files are located on my system? (Mac OS X).
    Thanks,
    Chris.

    Try to update iTunes.
    Or - Remove iTunes from your system, download from https://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
    And install.
    In simple words (reinstall iTunes)
    i guess you have updated Yosemite not clean install.
    Anyway, for me updates not worked 100% stable. i always do clean install and this is the best way to go, only problem is that there are no official way from apple to make a bootable drive - all the time this is big problem...

  • I've blocked anonymous but it doesn't work for all: unavailable, no name, etc

    It appears this question has been asked numerous times, but there is no response from Verizon. What's the deal here? I don't want to call Verizon because when I do, I'm inundated with calls from them, which I'm trying to decrease not increase. Honestly, Verizon reminds me of an ex who takes a break up badly, and I don't want to encourage continued calls, but I need to know how to stop this.

    It does work.  The problem is that anonymous call rejection doesn't do what you want it to do!    ACR blocks calls from people who withhold their telephone number by entering the ACR code on their phone.  "Unavailable" and "no name" callers have not used the ACR code to block their telephone number, so the call comes through.   It's a loophole in the regulation and there is no way for the consumer to get around it.
    If you feel motivated enough, a letter to the FCC or your congressman asking them to fix the loophole is your best recourse.

  • Spelling again | Multilingual doesn't work for all languages

    Hello,
    I am writing e-mails on a daily basis in different languages (English, German, Spanisch, Russian, and French).
    And, of course, I have set my Mail spelling checker to <Multilingual>. It works just fine with the first three languages. But it “doesn't know” the french words. Neither checks it the russian words at all...
    If I turn <Francais> on, then it works, but the other languages don't (of course).
    Have you guys an idea???
    Thanks!

    And, of course, I have set my Mail spelling checker
    to <Multilingual>. It works just fine with the first
    three languages. But it “doesn't know” the french
    words.
    Seems like it should know French. Is French on your list in system prefs/international/languages? If not, use the Edit button to add it.
    Neither checks it the russian words at all...
    OS X has never come with a Russian spell checker.

  • Headphone Jack doesn't work for all headphones

    I don't have apple haeadphones anymore and I realized that not all headphones work on my ipod4. I have to turn my headphones to a certain angle to get them to work all the time. help?

    - Try cleaning out/blowing out the headphone jack. Try inserting/removing the plug a dozen times or so.
    Try the following to rule out a software problem. However, from your description you have a bad headohone jack.
    - Reset the iPod. Nothing will be lost
    Reset iPod touch: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Reset all settings
    Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
    All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
    - Restore from backup
    - Restore to factory settings/new iPod.
    - Make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store. Seems you have a bad headphone jack.

  • Since downloading the iOS5.1 software to a 4th Gen ipod Touch Facetime doesn't work for all contacts. Any ideas?

    When trying to facetime a contact (which worked prior to update) it says that person is 'unavailable for facetime'. Some contacts work and some don't. Facetime is enabled in settings.
    Also can message some people but not others - not necessarily the same people that can't be facetimed.
    Anyone experienced similar or got any ideas?
    Thanks.

    No, just some of them. Tried getting them to facetime my daughter which worked, but still couldn't facetime back.

  • My iMessage read receipts are turned on but it doesn't work for all my contacts

    I have iMessage read receipts turned on on my iPhone 5. Several of my contacts also have it turned on. They can see when I read their messages but it's not showing up on my end. Someone explain to me how this is happening and how I can fix it. I have SEVERAL contacts who can see my read receipts but I can't see theirs. It has to be something on my end but I don't see how!
    Thank you.

    It makes things easier if you reply on your original thread rather than starting a new one - you should see a 'reply' button at the bottom of each post.
    How did the photos get onto your iPad e.g. were they copied to the iPad from your computer ? If not then you should be able to delete them directly in the Photos app on your iPad. If they were copied from your computer then they are removed from the iPad using the same process as you used to put them onto the iPad :
    Connect the iPad to your computer and select it on the left-hand sidebar (if you are using iTunes 11 on your PC then control-s should get the sidebar to show) :
    On the right-hand side of the iTunes screen select the Photos tab :
    If you just want to remove some folders/albums that you had copied from your computer then de-select them on the list :
    If you want to remove all photos that you had copied to your iPad from your computer then select and sync a folder that doesn't have any photos in it :
