Array problem?

guds

I try to convert some of our earlier programs from pcsdk.5.10 to pcsdk.6.02.01 but encounter a problem.

The code below is to set the value of a Num Array in the controller.

These codes work fine with pcsdk.5.10, however, it just don't work when I replace the dll with pcsdk 6.02.01 under Windows 7 64-bit (.net4.5 VS2012).

No error or exception appear but the values in controller remain unchanged.

I think these codes are very similar to those in the pcsdk example document.

Does anyone has an idea about what is going on?

                Num rapidNum1;
                Num rapidNum2;

                RapidData rd = controller.Rapid.GetTask("T_ROB1").GetModule("MainModule).GetRapidData("varArray1);

                ArrayData ad = (ArrayData)rd.Value;

                rapidNum1.Value = 123.45;

                rapidNum2.Value = 678.90;

                ad[0] =rapidNum1;

                ad[1] =rapidNum2;

                rd.Value= ad;

Hi

Did you mouseover the variable in RAPID and checked 'Current value' from the mouseover dialog, sometimes the visual value is not refreshed.

Hi,

Thanks for your reply.  

Yes, on flexpendent I always press "Refresh" button before visually reading the value to avoid this problem.

And in PC environment (VS2012) I can always read the corresponding value after changing the value in flexpendent.

So I assume that  "rd.value=xxxx" works for Num and String but doesn't work for Array in pcsdk.6.02.01???

For editing an array, I use the WriteItem method. In your case it will be something like:

rd.WriteItem(rapidNum1, 0);
rd.WriteItem(rapidNum2, 1);

To be sure your array is defined as PERS? Maybe you can try if this is a solution...

Hi,guds
     To read RAPID data you need to log on to the controller. To modify RAPID data you must also request mastership of the Rapid domain.
