Description
Use the GetPropertyValue method to retrieve the value of a particular property of a certain object. If the property requires additional parameters, for example an item index, then they are specified after the property name.
Declaration
aqObject.GetPropertyValue(IObject, PropertyName, Param1, Param2, ...)
| IObject | [in] | Required | Variant | |
| PropertyName | [in] | Required | String | |
| Param1 | [in] | Optional | Variant | |
| Param2 | [in] | Optional | Variant | ... |
| Result | Variant | |||
Applies To
The method is applied to the following object:
Parameters
The method has the following parameters:
IObject
The object to which the desired property belongs.
PropertyName
The name of the property whose value you want to get.
If the property with the given name was not found, an error occurs. Use the aqObject.IsSupported method to verify whether the object has a certain property.
Specify the parameters (if any) required to access the property value.
Result Value
The value of the specified object property.
Example
The code below obtains the value of the wText property of an object corresponding to Notepad's window. After that, the routine posts this value to the test log. Note that in this case, notepad.exe is added to the list of tested applications with the C:\Hello!.txt parameter.
JavaScript, JScript
function GettingPropertyValue()
{
// Launches notepad.exe with the C:\Hello.txt command line parameter
WshShell.Run("notepad.exe", SW_NORMAL);
// Specifies an object that corresponds
// to notepad's window
var wndNotepad = Sys.Process("notepad").Window("Notepad", "Hello - Notepad", 1);
var Obj = wndNotepad.Window("Edit", "", 1);
var PropValue = aqObject.GetPropertyValue(Obj, "wText");
// Posts the value of the specified property to the test log
Log.Message(PropValue);
// Closes notepad's window
aqObject.CallMethod(wndNotepad, "Close");
}
Python
def GettingPropertyValue():
# Launches notepad.exe with the C:\Hello.txt command line parameter
WshShell.Run("notepad.exe", SW_NORMAL)
# Specifies an object that corresponds
# to notepad's window
wndNotepad = Sys.Process("notepad").Window("Notepad", "Hello - Notepad", 1)
Obj = wndNotepad.Window("Edit", "", 1)
PropValue = aqObject.GetPropertyValue(Obj, "wText")
# Posts the value of the specified property to the test log
Log.Message(PropValue)
# Closes notepad's window
aqObject.CallMethod(wndNotepad, "Close")VBScript

End Sub
DelphiScript

WshShell.Run('notepad.exe', SW_NORMAL);
// Specifies an object that corresponds

// Posts the value of the specified property to the test log
Log.Message(PropValue);
// Closes notepad's window
aqObject.CallMethod(wndNotepad, 'Close');

C++Script, C#Script

// Launches notepad.exe with the C:\Hello.txt command line parameter

// Specifies an object that corresponds
// to notepad's window

// Posts the value of the specified property to the test log
Log["Message"](PropValue);
// Closes notepad's window
