Error description
RFT8201 /iFix001 OS: Win XP IE:6/7/8 Problem description: RFT playback log is corrupt and cannot show header ? Error/Warning boxes'. We believe this is caused by special character such as line feed. We suspect the other special character, e..g tab, may cause the same error. The System.getProperty ( 'line.separator' ) will return the line feed ('\r/n' on Windows) (see below link). If you run the script, you will find that the header and Error/Warning boxes are missing the test log. http://publib.boulder.ibm.com/infocenter/rfthelp/v8r2/topic/com. ibm.rational.test.ft.doc/topics/PlaceholderDefault.html Expected : When a RFT logging API function is used, we expect a full playback log Actual: When RFT logging API is used, playback log seems be corrupted.
Local fix
Problem summary
**************************************************************** * USERS AFFECTED: * **************************************************************** * PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: * **************************************************************** * RECOMMENDATION: * **************************************************************** We were not processing the \r\n characters while generating the html format and hence the corruption of the generated log. Proper handling of such characters resolved the issue.
Problem conclusion
Handling of the \r\n characters renders the logs appropriately
Temporary fix
