Turning Off the Class Declaration Filter

This functionality is supported only if you are using the Classic Agent.

When you record classes, Silk Test Classic by default filters out properties and methods inherited at or above a certain level in a class hierarchy. The threshold at which filtering occurs varies according to the hierarchy. You can turn off this filter if you want these properties and methods to be enumerated.

We provide this filter as a convenience, but it has not been thoroughly tested.

To turn off the class declaration filter:
  1. Open the javaex.ini file. The path is <SilkTest install directory>\extend\javaex.ini.
  2. In the [Recording] section, add the command FilterClassDecl=false.
  3. Save and close javaex.ini.
  4. Restart the Agent, and the application or applet under test.
