Additional attribute is a run time setting in VuGen
and controller in load runner. This is used for reading a attribute value from
run time settings.
This will be helpful, to pass any value to the test
script from run time settings. This will overcome the limitations of parameters
in VuGen. The parameters can be read and edited from the VuGen script only.
Cannot be edited from controller.
If you want pass some value to the script from
controller, we use additional attributes. Since additional attributes are part
of run time settings, so it can be passed from controller. But there should be
corresponding functions written in VuGen script to read the values.
Additional Attribute:
Char *cache1;
Char *cache2;
cache1=lr_get_attrib_string
("Cache_Param1");
lr_save_string (cache1,"NewCache1");
cache2=lr_get_attrib_string("Cache_Param2");
lr_save_string (cache2,"NewCache2");
In Performance center Command line argument:
-Cache_Param1
"http://tkodclxgfa1stg003.lehman.com:19000"
Note:Cache_Param1 is the string that will give in
Run-time setting.
