Having trouble with WTT Logger from your WDTF script?
Just a quick note, since someone asked about this recently on one of the WDTF support aliases and for a change, I actually knew the answer without looking it up.
The sample scripts will try to create a COM automation object from the ProgId WTTLogger.Logger.
The file you are looking for is named WTTLogCM.Dll, and all you need to do is register it:
- Open a command prompt (administrative, I believe).
- Regsvr32 <path to WTTLogCM.DLL>
- Popup should say DllRegisterServer succeeded.
That’s it! You can unregister it later with regsvr32 /u.
You can find the file in the WDK- in the server 2008 WDK (6001.18002) it lives in tools\wdtf\<arch>\redist\Extras. If you look through the WDK tree, you may also find a wttlog.dll- wrong one! For the curious, that’s got a direct call interface for native code apps- but that’s not suitable for scripting.
Happens I’ve been developing a couple of COM automation in-process servers of the same type for some of my own test tools, and I live and die by WTT, anyway- so for a change, the answer was a no-brainer…
