Wait For Window or Control stores only about 8000 bytes of a caption

FinalBuilder Bugs
1

I appologize for not having a test case, but our system produces a window semi-periodically that contains error text.  The error text in some few cases has run longer than about 8000 characters and the remaining text gets cut off.  If necessary I could create a sample executable that demonstrates the problem.

I'm using FinalBuilder 6.3.0.1916.

The usage is to create a "Wait For Window or Control" that waits for an textarea / edit box with the "On Find Window" set to "Store caption in variable".  "Control From Description" looks like:

FindChild("%iProject% WinConsole",null).FindChild("Edit",null)

"Wait Parameters" is set to "Wait for the process" and "Time out after 10secs" and "On Timeout" "Fail the action".  Basically it runs in a loop waiting for the window while checking other variables.

This is a failure to store more than 8k of data, otherwise it seems to work more or less fine.

Thanks,
John

Hi John,

Thanks for reporting this, I’ve increased the maximum number of characters to returned from an edit control from 8192, to 65k. I’ll let you know when a new test build is available.

Regards,
Paul.
