CitrixWaitForTextFuzzy Function

Action

This function uses optical character recognition (OCR) to synchronize subsequent user actions. Based on provided parameters, this function waits until the provided text pattern appears on the specified location.

Use TrueLog Explorer to insert this synchronization call.

The screen region can be specified absolutely or relatively to a window (by specifying a window handle). When only a window handle, and no position or size, is provided, the region specified by the window outline is used.

注: Text synchronization is only possible in Normal Mode (see CitrixInit). When used in Fast Mode this function waits a specified period of time (configurable through a call to CitrixSetOption).

In the case of a timeout, error reporting can be prohibited with the bNoError parameter.

CitrixWaitForTextFuzzy performs OCR more exactly than CitrixWaitForText but requires more resources.

Syntax

CitrixWaitForTextFuzzy( in  sText        : string,
                        in  nWindow      : number,
                        in  nX           : number,

                        in  sLanguage    : string,                        
                        in  nMatch       : number,
                        in  nTimeout     : number  optional,
                        in  bNoError     : boolean optional,
                        out sResult      : string  optional,
                        in  nPolling     : number  optional ): boolean;

Parameter	Description
sText	String or string pattern to wait for.
nWindow	Window handle returned by a call to `CitrixWaitForWindowCreation`. Use `DESKTOP` to specify a region relative to the desktop.
nX	X coordinate of the left margin of the screen region.
nY	Y coordinate of the top margin of the screen region.
nWidth	Width of the region.
nHeight	Height of the region.
sLanguage	The language of the text to be verified. Possible language codes are chi_sim, dan, deu, eng, fin, fra, ita, jpn, nld, nor, pol, spa and swe.
nMatch	Specify one of the following values (optional): MATCH_Exact (default): Case-sensitive comparison. MATCH_ExactNoCase: Case-insensitive comparison. MATCH_Wildcard: The search string must either begin or end with a '' character, which matches everything. The rest of the string is compared case sensitively. MATCH_WildcardNoCase: The search string must either begin or end with a '' character, which matches everything. The rest of the string is compared case insensitively. MATCH_RegExp: The search string is a regular expression. See the regular expression chapter for a description of Silk Performer's regular expression capability. In the optional flag MATCH_IfDifferent is added to the value the function waits until the OCR result does not match the provided string or string pattern any more.
nTimeout	Specify the time in milliseconds to wait for the screen region to reach the correct appearance (optional). When this parameter is omitted or set to `0`, the default timeout is used. The default value can be adjusted by profile settings ( Settings > Active Profile > Citrix > General > Synchronization timeout ) or an appropriate call to the `CitrixSetOption` function.
bNoError	Set this parameter to `true` to prevent a timeout from raising an error. This is especially useful for controlling variable user reactions.
sResult	Retrieves the result of the OCR conversion.
nPolling	Specify the polling period in milliseconds that the Citrix Replay engine will wait to poll a screen for an update (`0` means no polling). If omitted, the parameter is set to `1000`. This setting overrides the `CitrixSetOption(CITRIX_OPT_ScreenTextPolling)` polling interval.

Example:

transaction TMain
var
  sResult  : string;
begin
  CitrixInit(800,600); // do not change the resolution
  CitrixConnect("server","John",Decrypt("8V6F"),"",COLOR_256);
  CitrixWaitForLogon();
  CitrixWaitForTextFuzzy("St*",DESKTOP,20,579,35,16,MATCH_Wildcard, "eng",0,false,sResult);
  print(sResult);
  CitrixDisconnect();
end TMain;
