Random errors in Ranorex generated cs files

Post by costamesakid » Mon Oct 24, 2011 10:19 pm

I decided to try out the Ranorex Recorder for the first time in a while instead of coding all my validation statements by hand because the recorder has always failed me in the past. This time I just wanted to validate some text and continue on fail. I recorded the validation item and got the following errors in my Ranorex generated cs file:
'TacViewLib.UISpecific.Preferences.General_Preferences.DefaultSettings.Validate' does not contain a definition for 'DefaultMessage' (CS0117) - C:\TacView\TacViewLib\UISpecific\Preferences\General_Preferences\DefaultSettings\Reset.cs:94,267
'TacViewLib.UISpecific.Preferences.General_Preferences.DefaultSettings.Validate' does not contain a definition for 'Attribute' (CS0117) - C:\TacView\TacViewLib\UISpecific\Preferences\General_Preferences\DefaultSettings\Reset.cs:94,26
I have these methods in 1000's of other user code files and the solution builds without incident until I used the recorder to validate an item. Any idea what is wrong with the Ranorex generated code? Thanks

Well apparently Ranorex didnt like my 2 recording modules named 'Reset' and 'Validate'. I updated them to 'ResetSettings' and 'ValidatedSettings' then my solution built

Hi,

If you use Validate for a Recording you create a class named Validate and this class conflicts with the Validate Method of Ranorex. There are few values you shouldn't use and in a future release of Ranorex we will have a "Black List" with values you can't use.
