4.3 Running the Analyzer and Capturing a Trace File
To run an Analyzer project and create a trace file, you have two options. The first one is Start/Stop
Recording, and the second one is MakeRecording.
Using either option, the captured trace file is stored in the Trace File Path specified in the Settings
dialog. The trace file name is the test name and is in a folder with a name similar to the device (DUT)
name specified in the Configuration dialog.
Start/Stop Recording
You can start capturing by calling the StartRecording function, using as input parameter the path of
the Analyzer project.
MySASAutomation.StartRecording("E:\ AnalyzerOnly.sac")
If Err.Number <> 0 Then
MySTATS.ReportError Err.number, Err.Description
Else
MySTATS.ReportText ("Recording is started")
End If
WScript.Sleep(10000) ' Wait 10 seconds for our capturing process.
You stop recording by calling the StopRecording function after waiting enough time for the capturing
process to complete. The parameter specifies whether you want to stop capturing only or you want to
create your trace file also. The FALSE value creates a trace file.
MySASAutomation.StopRecording(FALSE)
If Err.Number <> 0 Then
MySTATS.ReportError Err.number, Err.Description
Else
MySTATS.ReportText ("Recording is stopped")
End If
To get the object of the generated trace file, call the OpenFile function to open the file and return the
reference.
Set SASTracer = MySASAutomation.OpenFile("E:\Output\Device 1\AnalyzerOnly.scs")
If Err.Number <> 0 Then
MySTATS.ReportError Err.number, Err.Description
Else
MySTATS.ReportText ("Trace file is opened")
End If
