Hello,
i want to know why waitForExistence do not work on ProcessTestObject.
i'm doing the following:
ProcessTestObject testObject = startApp(config.getApplicationName());
testObject.waitForExistence();
.....
clickOK();
when i run the script an exception occurs, because the button is not found => application not fully loaded.
i thought i could use waitForExistence instead of sleep(3)
regards, michael
hmm you have a funny way of asking questions.. it's more like a statement ;) Anyway here you go±
public void
waitForExistence(double maximum_find_object_time,
double find_object_wait_between_retry)
RationalTestScript onObjectNotFound methods are not supported.
waitForExistence in class TestObject
maximum_find_object_time - the maximum amount of time (in seconds) to wait while finding the object
find_object_wait_between_retry - the amount of time (in seconds) to wait between attempts to find the object
ObjectNotFoundException
isAlive()
RationalTestScript onObjectNotFound methods are not supported.
waitForExistence in class TestObject
maximum_find_object_time - the maximum amount of time (in seconds) to wait while finding the object
find_object_wait_between_retry - the amount of time (in seconds) to wait between attempts to find the object
ObjectNotFoundException
isAlive()

- Normally, waits until an object exists, but for a process this actually never waits. If the process does not now exist, it never will. Throws an exception if the process has terminated. The
RationalTestScript onObjectNotFoundmethods are not supported.
- Overrides:
waitForExistencein classTestObject
- Parameters:
maximum_find_object_time- the maximum amount of time (in seconds) to wait while finding the objectfind_object_wait_between_retry- the amount of time (in seconds) to wait between attempts to find the object- Throws:
ObjectNotFoundException- Since:
- RFT1.1

Hm, i'm using version 8.
in the docu there is another info at waitForExistence():
waitForExistence(double maximum_find_object_time, double find_object_wait_between_retry)
Wait for the Existence of the Objects
testObject.waitForExistence(10,1); does not wait the max time of 10 sec.

oh, yes, you where right :)
i will use sleep instead of waitForExistence.

I think sleep is a bad idea because if the application doesn't open within that time you are going to get the same error.
So the solution is use this.
int i=0;
while(i==0){
if(testObject().exists()){
i++;
}
System.out.println("found it not");
}
System.out.println("found it ");
This will insure you that the script will wait until it opens.

That's a terrible loop.. wastes far to much system resources and is potentially infinite when object will never exsist. fixed it for you:

I just provided him the approach how to handle that situation.
If you are concern regarding time frame just add a code to capture time and set a expire code.
What is the difference between your code and having a wait for existence for 60 second .If you have one line of code that does it why use a long code
In that case your code is use less.
My code was to provide him a approach not a solution.
Sorry for the harsh sentence.

Well then u could have made that a little clearer; if you say 'So the solution is use this', people might get confused.

waitForExistence is void(), my code 'returns' a boolean.
Sorry for the harsh sentence.
no hard feelings, maybe i was i little rude in my last reply
