Hi Anna,
Is there any method by which I can convert the String values to Hash.
Thanks

Hi,
Actually, I am trying to read the sLocator value form a xml file and
thats the main problem if I put the value directly into a variable
then it's working fine like--
a= {:name='q'}
return $sBrowser.text_field(a)
Code written above works fine but when I m doing this-
sLoc = getObjectLocator(Text_Search)
return $sBrowser.text_field(sLoc)
def getObjectLocator(sObjectId)
begin
$sObjectFile = Document.new File.new(c:\\a.xml)
$sObjectFile.elements.each(//TestObject[Identifier='#
{sObjectId}']) { |element|
sLocator = element.elements['Locator'].text
sObjectType = element.elements['ObjType'].text
return sLocator
}
sLoc returns the correct value, I tried this by printing the sLoc
value but It is nt working
It is returning a different value. Your assignment is equivalent to:
sLoc = {:name='q'}
which is different from:
a = {:name='q'}
The first is a string, the second is a hash, and these object types are
not interchangeable.

P.S. Starting your variable names with $ turns them into global variables.

Well, the fastest (but also dirtiest) way is instance_eval:
irb(main):001:0 s = {:name='q'}
= {:name='q'}
irb(main):002:0 s.class
= String
irb(main):003:0 o = instance_eval(s)
= {:name=q}
irb(main):004:0 o.class
= Hash
This would work, but I wouldn't recommend it since it interprets
everything in Locator as Ruby code.
You could also add more structure to the locator and build the hash
yourself:
Locator
Keyname/Key
Valueq/Value
Locator
def get_object_locator(object_id)
object_file = Document.new File.new('c:\a.xml')
object_file.elements.each(//TestObject[Identifier='#{object_id}']) {
locator = element.elements['Locator']
key = locator.elements['Key'].text
value = locator.elements['Value'].text
return { key.to_sym, value }
}
end
That's not the most elegant of code, but you get the idea.
HTH,
Anna

Hi, Thanks for the time. It returns hash values but I want to use this value into methods for objects identification like- a= get_object_locator(Text1) ie.text_field(a).set(test) Here, it's not working as it is.So how I can use this. I am very new to Watir and don't have too much idea. Sorry to bother you guys again and again. Thanks Vikas On Apr 1, 12:24 pm, Anna Gabutero a...@lavabit.com wrote: P.S.

Hi , Thanks for the time, actually I am creating a some common methods and for that I have created some classes and I want to work on the same IE instance, means all the classes should access the same IE instance and perform the operations on the same IE.

[wtr-general] Re: IE instance problem
Hi,
Thanks for the reply, your exaple is useful. can you please gide me
more for the following problem--
Hi All,
I want to return a instance of a browser and a prticular method
related to the browser from a function --
Following is the my code--
def getObjectLocator(sObjectId)
begin
$sObjectFile.elements.each(//TestObject[Identifier='#
{sObjectId}']) { |element|
sLocator = element.elements['Locator'].text
sObjectType = element.elements['ObjType'].text
if(sObjType.eql?(TextField))
s = Watir.IE.new
s.text_field(sLocator)
return s
}
end
Here, sLocator is-- :name,'q'. I am not able to return the instance
of this text filed which has the property as sLocator. if I write the
code as --
s.text_field(:name,'q') , then it's working fine but it's nt working
with s.text_field(sLocator). Here sLocator contains the same value
i.e. :name,'q'.
please help me.
Thanks
Vikas
but I am facing some other
