C++ Test Data Source Generation Issue
What headings do I need to use in a CSV file to enable setting of Buffer[0], Buffer[1], etc. for the following function: unsigned char CalculateChecksum(unsigned char *Buffer,unsigned char Length).

1. C++Test is not going to allow you to place an array of values for the Buffer variable as written. Therefore I would suggest changing the parameters
FROM:
unsigned char CalculateChecksum(unsigned char *Buffer,unsigned char Length)
TO:
unsigned char CalculateChecksum(unsigned char *Buffer[],unsigned char Length)
2. I would suggest using hex values in your *.csv file. For Example
try.csv
---------------------cut-------------------
Column1,Column2,
"\x041", "\x001",
----------------------cut-------------------
Note: Data Source support is only available for Native Test Cases0 -

Why not? It is a legitimate function. Also, I can set such values directly in the Test Case Editor with the function as is.0 -
OK, I have this now working, using option 2 and using the folowing format: "\x041\x043...". Thanks for the advice. Option 1 wasn't an option as this changes the nature of the function, which we did not want to do.0
