Win Runner Q & A Part 14

131. Why you use reload function?

a) If you make changes in a module, you should reload it. The reload function removes a loaded module from memory and reloads it (combining the functions of unload and load).

The syntax of the reload function is:

reload ( module_name [ ,1|0 ] [ ,1|0 ] );

The module_name is the name of an existing compiled module.

Two additional optional parameters indicate the type of module. The first parameter indicates whether the module is a system module or a user module: 1 indicates a system module; 0 indicates a user module.

(Default = 0)

The second optional parameter indicates whether a user module will remain open in the WinRunner window or will close automatically after it is loaded. 1 indicates that the module will close automatically. 0 indicates that the module will remain open.

(Default = 0)

132. Why does the minus sign not appear when using obj_type(), win_type(), type()?

If using any of the type() functions, minus signs actually means hold down the button for the previous character. The solution is to put a backslash character "\\" before the minus sign. This also applies to + < >.
