Error description

  • User has a macro that when he looks at it in the VME it says
    that there is no associated screen capture but when he looks at
    the source he finds that it is specified.
    
    visualinfo:x=370;showActions=1;lastPropertiesPage=com.ibm.hats.v
    me.properties.ScreenRecoPropertiesPage;
    associatedScreenName=Trans_AAME\Search off street exceptions -
    car.hsc;y=63;
    
    User can browse and locate the screen again, then he can see it
    and work with it, but when he closes the window and open it
    again the problem re-occurs.
    
    Additionallu and occasionally no associatedScreenName parameter
    will be added to the source at all. User did a cleanup of the
    project and also did a -clean start of the studio, but problem
    remains.
    
    User noticed that this problem seems to occur most often when
    the name of the screen capture is long and contains blanks and
    "-" characters.

    ****************************************************************
    * PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: When a screen capture is created and    *
    *                      the name contains certain symbols,      *
    *                      like a hyphen, the Visual Macro         *
    *                      Editor will fail to show the            *
    *                      associated screen capture.              *
    ****************************************************************
    * RECOMMENDATION:                                              *
    ****************************************************************
    The code which parses the screen capture names for the Visual
    Macro Editor doesn't handle certain symbols correctly and will
    fail to display the associated screen capture file.
    

Problem conclusion

  • The parseString function in VisualInfoUtils was changed so
    that the pattern matcher can handle these symbols.
