OutputMessagesEnabled Property
Syntax
Engine.OutputMessagesEnabled
Data Type
Purpose
Specifies whether TestStand collects output messages and whether TestStand sends a UIMsg_OutputMessages message to the user interface.
Remarks
TestStand maintains a list of output messages in the OutputMessages collection object returned by the Engine.GetOutputMessages method. If you enable this property and you call the OutputMessage.Post method, TestStand adds the message to the collection. In addition, if the number of items in the collection changes from zero to one, TestStand sends a UIMsg_OutputMessages message to inform the user interface to retrieve the output message.
When you disable this property, TestStand does not collect output messages and the sequence editor does not update the Output pane.
TestStand always sends output messages to a debugger if you enable the DebugOptions_SendOutputMessagesToDebugger option of the StationOptions.DebugOptions property.
