variable (value) in comment

Post by dman » Fri Sep 02, 2011 2:54 pm

is it possible to display a variable's value into a comment (e.g. by some escape characters)?
I'm referring to the comments from the recordings, which are displayed in console when running projects

All the best,
D.

I'm a little confused... Are you asking about (A) displaying variable values in the resulting ranorex report?
Or literally, (B) variable values in the comments in the code?

If A, something like this:

Code: Select all

Report.Info("** My Report Comment: " + MyVariable + ".");
If B, well then... I'm not sure what that would mean... Since you only see comments when modifying the code and/or debugging. In which case you would have a look at the variable for its value.
If this or any response has helped you, please reply to the thread stating that it worked so other people with a similar issue will know how you fixed your issue!

HI Ciege,

and thank you for your reply!

It's (A) - only that is related to the recorder view comments (in the report I'd like to get the value); hence no code.
Please see the screenshot I've attached.

All the best,
D.
