Re: [Wtr-general] Is there a way to make file_field.set faster?

[Cain, Mark]

Zeljko, this works for me and it is much faster because it uses the handle of 
the object.

 

require 'watir/contrib/enabled_popup'

   

   $path = "C\:\\watir_bonus\\working\\MyDoc.txt"

 

   def startClicker( button , waitTime=5, user_input=nil)

    hwnd = $ie.enabled_popup(waitTime)  # get a handle if one exists 

    if (hwnd)  # yes there is a popup

      w = WinClicker.new

      if ( user_input )

        w.setTextValueForFileNameField(hwnd, "#{user_input}")

      end

      sleep 3  # I put this in to see the text being input it is not necessary 
to work

      w.clickWindowsButton_hwnd(hwnd, "#{button}")  # "OK" or whatever the name 
on the button is

      w=nil    # this is just cleanup

    end

  end

 

  # this is whatever invokes the file field dialog

  adoc = $ie.frame("main").image(:src, 
"https://alinea.inmar.com/alinea/images/adddocument.gif";)

 

  adoc.click_no_wait

  

  # call the clicker

  startClicker( '&Open', 9, $path)

Is there a way to make file_field.set faster?

I have noticed that this is the slowest part of my tests. It takes about 10 
seconds to set file field. I have read that it can not be set directly because 
that would be security issue, but I wonder what I could do to make it faster. I 
upload extremely small files (a few bytes), but I have to do it frequently, and 
every time it takes about 10 seconds just to set file field. 

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks.
