Fill Array of Containers in Teststand

[R.B.]

Hello comunity,

i have a problem in dynamically filling an empty array of containers with the corresponding container elements.

Background is , i receive values from a database with the TS Database functions and write them into a container with 2 strings and 1 number.

The count of the containers is variable and depends on the database inserts. Now i need the whole information after getting the information form db at

one time to get a drop-down selection of one string of the container.

It is a requirement of the program that this action is not made in an vi but in a TS statement.

How do i code this in TS ?

I tried this :

FileGlobals.dbInformationName[Locals.index]=FileGlobals.dbResultList.surename,
FileGlobals.User.id=FileGlobals.dbResultList.id,
FileGlobals.User.firstName = FileGlobals.dbResultList.firstname,
FileGlobals.User.surname= FileGlobals.dbResultList.surename,
InsertElements(Parameters.dbResults,"Locals.index", FileGlobals.User)
, but i always get a error message -> Expected Number, found Container.

Can anyone please help me with this matter ?

Thank you very much.

B.R.

Hi,

The "InsertElements" function will only insert new elements to your existing array. And you are getting errors because the third parameter should be a number saying how many elements needs to be inserted. 

For the application you mentioned, you can use the flow control steps in teststand for looping ( loop index may be same as the number of elements, dynamically assigned) and assigning the elemnts using TS statement steps.
