Read or Write a Notepad with load runner or Read Write text file in load runner Vugen

If we want to alter a text file(.txt) with loadrunner or we may need to read or write the notepad,we can simply use load runner inbuild functionalities.Here is the example.

Script code:

 char * filename =”C:\\easytech\\loadrunner\\testfile.txt”; 

// {Use // quote instead of single (/) for defining path.}

long file;

char names[100];

Vugen Action:

Action()

{

fopen(filename, “r”);

if ((file = fopen(filename, “r”)) == NULL) {

lr_error_message (“Loadrunner cannot open the %s”, file);

return -1; }

while (!feof(file))

{

fgets(names, 200, file);  // here 200 decide the length of the contents in a line. So, if you have a longer piece to read, you'll need to lengthen it.

if (!feof(file)) //if not at the end of file print names

{

lr_output_message(“%s”,lr_eval_string(names));

}

}

fclose(file);

return 0;
