Problem: What are the known compatibility issues for TestStand 3.1?
Solution: TestStand includes the following behavior changes between version 3.0 and version 3.1.
- In TestStand 3.0, the ListBar control fired the CurPageChanged event when you selected a new current page or when you changed a property of the current page. In TestStand 3.1, the ListBar control only fires the CurPageChanged event when you select a new current page.
- Typically, TestStand does not call Custom substeps. In TestStand 3.1, if you add a Custom substep named OnNewStep to a step type, the TestStand Sequence Editor calls the substep each time you create a new step of that type. You can use the TestStand API to invoke a Custom substep from a code module or an operator interface.
- In TestStand 3.1, the PropertyObject.GetXML method generates a stream that contains additional XML attributes and elements to support the new PropertyObject.SetXML method.
Additionally, the values of the Type and ElementType attributes no longer specify named types. The new TypeName and ElementTypeName attributes specify named types, and the Type and ElementType attributes specify base types only.
Refer to the following file, <TestStand>\Components\Models\ TestStandModels\PropertyObject.xsd, which defines the XSD schema definition for the PropertyObject.GetXML and PropertyObject.SetXML methods.
