Hi Everyone,

I can’t seem to get UIShow to launch my screen.

The names of the application extentions in my home directory are:

TpsViewFSWControlScreen.dll  
TpsViewFSWControlScreen.gtpu.dll

In Rapid I have this:

* * *

CONST string Name:=“TpsViewFSWControlScreen.gtpu.dll”;  
CONST string Type:=“ABB.Robotics.SDK.Views.TpsViewFSWControlScreen”;  
CONST string Cmd1:=“Init data string passed to the view”;  
PERS uishownum myinstance:=0;  
VAR num mystatus:=0;

UIShow Name,TypeInitCmd:=Cmd1InstanceID:=myinstanceStatus:=mystatus;

* * *

Why does executing UIShow generate the following error?

41664 The typename is invalid for this assembly 2009-04-01 14:02:01  
Task: T\_ROB1 The inparameter TypeName is invalid.  
The typename does not match the assembly.Status -5.  
Program Ref /SWV50\_Gantry/StirL/UIShow/483.  
{args: “T\_ROB1”, “TypeName”, “-5”, “/  
SWV50\_Gantry/StirL/UIShow/483”, “ERR\_UISHOW\_FATAL”}

Hi Kevin,

You should post this quetion inside Robot Application Builder Forum.

Can you copy the declaration of your TpsView? .. it seems that it is something about the full name: NAMESPACE.NAME
