DotNetFactory interface functions (2) – Create Label

Posted by Albert Gareev on Jun 13, 2009 | Categories: DotNetClassesSource code

Parent page: Service Functions – DotNetFactory (QTP, VBScript)

Creating .NET objects from VBScript/QTP

You can create a label and assign required properties within one line by calling the function below. The function has one mandatory parameter (which though is initialized by default if empty) and a set of optional parameters provided in the Dictionary object.

Currently supported optional parameters:

Label Width and Height.

Label Coordinates – Left, Top.

Note. You may code as many optional parameters as required. Just follow the established syntax and keep in mind that parameter index for Dictionary must be unique – otherwise it will overwrite the previous parameter.

Create Label


 Public Function CreateLabel(ByVal sText, ByVal objParameter)
    Dim intLength
    Dim intWidth, intHeight
    Dim intLeft, intTop
    Dim objLabel

  'Verify parameters
  If TypeName (objParameter) <>  "Dictionary" Then
   Set objParameter = CreateObject("Scripting.Dictionary")
  End If

  If sText = "" Then sText = "Default"
  intLength = (Len(sText) + 4)*10
  
  intWidth = InitLong(objParameter.Item("p.width"), intLength)
  intHeight = InitLong(objParameter.Item("p.height"), 20)

  intLeft = IntVal(objParameter.Item("p.left"))
  intTop = IntVal(objParameter.Item("p.top"))

  Set objLabel = DotNetFactory.CreateInstance("System.Windows.Forms.Label", "System.Windows.Forms")
  objLabel.Text = sText
  objLabel.Width = intWidth
  objLabel.Height = intHeight
  objLabel.Left = intLeft
  objLabel.Top = intTop

  Set CreateLabel = objLabel
 End Function

Example

Set objPromptLabel = CreateLabel("Please provide your Username and Password", AssociateParameters("p.left = 10, p.top = 15, p.width = 200, p.height = 25"))
