Calling a C++ function

Hi, I am new to TestStand and would appreciate some help on this. I am using TestStand 3.5 for some automated testing. I have created a PCB board which uses RS232 serial communication interface and so far I have been communicating with it through Hyperterminal on PC. Now I would like to be able to incorporate it with automated testing with TestStand. For that, I have created a C++ serial port class and function which accepts 4 bytes and sends it on the serial port.
My question is, how do I call this from TestStand? Is there any step-by-step guide to doign this? I have created the CPP in Visual C++ 2008.
Thanks. 

Hi Engineer101,
One way to integrate your code into TestStand would be to save it as a .dll file.  Cick this link for information on how to do this in visual c++ 2008. Once you have the dll, you can call it in teststand using a c/c++ dll action step.  I hope this helps, and let me know if you have any further questions!

  • How to call a C function calling a Java Method from another C function ?

    Hi everyone,
    I'm just starting to learn JNI and my problem is that I don't know if it is possible to call a C function calling a Java Method (or doing anything else with JNI) from another C function.
    In fact, after receiving datas in a socket made by a C function, I would like to create a class instance (and I don't know how to do it too ; ) ) and init this instance with the strings I received in the socket.
    Is all that possible ?
    Thank you very much for your help !

    Hard to understand the question, but by most interpretations the answer is going to be yes.
    You do of course understand that JNI is the "API" that sits between Java and C and that every call between the two must go through that. You can't call it directly.

  • How to call a SQL function from an XSL expression

    Hi
    In R12, in Payroll Deposit adivce/Check writer, We need to sort the earnings tag <AC_Earnings> in to two different categories as regular and other earnings. In the DB and form level of element defintiion we have a DFF which differentiates between the two kinds of earnings. But the seeded XML that is gerneated by the check writer does not have this field.
    The seeded template displays all the earnings in one column. How can we achieve this in the template without modifying the seeded XML.
    The one approach i have is to write a function and based on the return value sort the data. For this I need to know :

  • Problem while calling an RFC Function Module in Background

    Hello,
    I have created a RFC function module for reading data from an external DB system. The FM calls an external RFC program (coded in C++ using RFC SDK), which delivers the required data. This external program is maintainged as an TCP RFC Connection in SM59.
    Further I have created a report, that calls the RFC function module to get the data from the external RFC programm.
    My problem is, when I call the report in foreground, everything works OK, the RFC connection works and data can be read from the external program.
    However, when I schedule the report to run in background as a job, the report is stating in the protocoll that there was a problem calling the defined RFC connection (although the connection is working properly at that time).
    More funny is, this particular problem with running in background occurs only in the productive system, in test and development system the report works correctly also while running as a job in background.
    Can you suggest the solution to this problem? Could it be something with authorisations or server settings?
    I will be on holiday for the next 6 weeks, so take your time to answer .
    Regards,
    Dusan.

    Please read the forum rules about u r g e n t ...

    This is an external RFC server program, not a remote enabled ABAP RFC function module as the others seem to be assuming, right?
    Is it possible that your DEV and QAS systems only have one application server, but the PROD has many and dedicated one(s) for processing low priority background jobs?
    It might be that the target server of your TCP connection is not this BTC instance, and your RFC server is returning the data "locally" - so, into nirvana...
    Just guessing, but might be worth checking.
    Cheers,
    Julius

  • How can I have a backing file call a JavaScript function?

    I have a Weblogic portal with a JSP portlet. The portlet has a backing file. How can I get the backing file to call a JavaScript function in my portlet?
    thanks

    Hi
    your questions are not correct because you are mixing up server side operations with client side operations.
    First server side code executes then the page is sent to the browser , then any javascript executes on the browser. So asking for javascript to be called from backing file (server side) doesn't make sense or asking for javascript to read a parameter doesnt exactly work either.
    However in your server code suppose you have a variable action in the request that you want javascript to know then in your JSP you would add something like
    <script type="text/javascript">
    var action = '${requestScope.action}';
    alert(action);//or whatever you want to do
    <c:if test="${requestScope.someOthervariable == ''xyz'}"><%-- this check is done on the server --%>
    callSomeJavascript(); <%--this javascript is only executed when the server side value of someOtherVariable is xyz --%>
    </c:if>
    </script>
    i.e. you can output the javascript that has the variables you need or the function calls you want.
    Like I said understand whats server side and whats client side.

  • How to call the 'DETAIL' function in ALV for a program?

    Dear Friends,
    I have a prf_tree (TYPE REF TO cl_gui_alv_tree), and I added below codes to add an new button for displaying the detail record, it works fine:
    CALL METHOD prf_toolbar->add_button
        EXPORTING

          icon      = icon_detail
          butn_type = cntb_btype_button
          text      = ''
          quickinfo = 'Show Details'.
    Everytime I click this new button, a window will popup and display the record details.
    My question is: how to call this standard function  ('DETAIL' function) in a program? for example:
    CASE ldf_ok_code.
        WHEN gcf_okcode_save.
          PERFORM okcode_save.
        WHEN 'SHOW_DETAIL'.
          CHECK  gdf_nodkey_9003 IS NOT INITIAL.

  • Calling Synchronous RFC Function Module in Background

    Hi all,
    Currently we are working on some requirement where in we have to retrieve data from one system(CRM) and update the same into another system(ECC). We have developed a RFC Function in CRM system and it is being called from ECC system as in synchronous mode via a batch program.
    Now since all sychronous call to a RFC function will be dialog there is a constraint on the runtime which is being set by maximum run time for each dialog work process. So my question is there an option to call an RFC function synchronously in background (background task) so there is no runtime performance.
    The standard TRFC, QRFC calls in background runs asynchronously and so I am trying to check with the SDN world as whether has anyone tried  SRFC(Synchronous) call in background?
    Thanks in advance,
    Jagath

    So my question is there an option to call an RFC function synchronously in background (background task) so there is no runtime performance.
    One solution would be to increase the value of the "time out" parameter defined the CRM system. This i feel is not a fool-proof solution as the run-times cannot be predicted. Check this thread: Re: RFC timeout profile parameter
    For me a better solution would be to implement tRFC call instead of a synchronous call. Any reasons why you don't want to implement a tRFC ?

  • Calling a RFC Function Module

    Hello Guys,
    I have a question regarding calling a RFC function module.
    In BW - BI 7.0 I call a RFC function module:
    (The ABAP program in BW-BI 7.0 is below)
      CALL FUNCTION ''ZTESTFUNCTIONMODULE'  " Function module in ECC
         DESTINATION 'DECCLNT110'  " ECC system
        TABLES
          it_gl_item   = it_gl
          it_errlog_gl = it_errlog_gl.
    The 'ZTESTFUNCTIONMODULE'   is RFC enabled in the ECC system.
    The purpose is we retarct the data from BW to ECC.
    When I run the function module it always asks for the user id and password.
    The SAP logon screen appears and it asks for the user id and password.
    The destination is maintained in the SM59 transaction and also the user is maintained there. I think it should login automatically into remote system and return the tables. is it correct. How to skip the logon screen.
    Do I have to pass the user id and password in the function module. I think it should take the user id from the SM59 destination. Is it correct.
    Please advise. As always thanks for your help guys.

    Hi Senthil,
    I think you answered your query in your question itself
    The user ID and password need to be maintained in RFC destination in SM59.
    Go to SM59 and then click on test connection..if it does not ask for ID and passwoed that means correct ID and password is maintained in SM59 otherwise maintain it.

  • Calling CVI DLL Function from Visual Studio

    HI all ,
    Iv'e created a DLL using CVI and i'm tring to call one of it's function from visual studio 6.0
    I'm getting a general error , is there a specific prototype that i need to set my functions in ordrer to call them ?!  
    Kobi Kalif
    Software Engineer

    You will need to distribute the CVI RTE along with your DLL, since anything you write in CVI is going to use the RTE.
    As far as calling the DLL functions, you can use the CVI defined macros
    <return type> DLLEXPORT DLLSTDCALL <function name> (<param1 type> <param1> ...) {
    to declare your functions in the DLL for access by a VS application.
    for example
    int DLLEXPORT DLLSTDCALL myfunction (int funparam1, double func param2) {
    There are options for identifying which functions to export from your DLL, I use "functions marked for export" but there are other choices available.  I also include a type library so when you type the name of a DLL funciton in VS6 you see a balloon popup with the function signature.  This is a check box in the target settings.  You have to create a ".fp" file (function panel file) to collect the function info for the library.
    From VB6 you can access the DLL a couple of ways, but I usually add the DLL as a reference.

  • Help needed in calling a javascript function from a jsp

    Hey guys,
    I need help.
    In my jsp I have a field called date. When i get date field from the database, it is a concatination of date and time field, so I wrote a small javascript function to strip just the date part from this date and time value.
    The javascript function is
    function formatDate(fieldName)
              var timer=fieldName;
              timer = timer.substring(5,7)+"/"+timer.substring(8,10)+"/"+timer.substring(0,4);
              return timer;
    Now I want to call this javascript function from the input tag in jsp where I am displaying the value of date. Check below
    This is one way I tried to do:
    <input size="13" name="startDate" maxLength="255" value=<script>formatDate("<%=startDate%>")</script> onChange="checkDate(this)">
    I even tried this:
    <input size="13" name="startDate" maxLength="255" value="'formatDate(<%=startDate%>)'" onChange="checkDate(this)">
    But it dosen't work

    1) Configured Php4.4 to have oci8 enabled with Apache2.2 on Windows 2000 ( service pack4). No error at the time of Apache start but when trying to connect to Oracle using Oracle Instant Client below error is thrown..
    "Fatal error: Call to undefined function: ocilogon() in C:\Apache2 \htdocs\star\dbconnect.php on line 7"

    3)Copied all Php4.4 dlls( oci..etc) into the directory pointed by "PHPIniDir", which is configured in httpd.conf
    If i run phpinfo(), i dont see oci8 enabled in the output. I guess there is problem in the configuration? Any insights into the error is greatly appreciated..
