Silk4NETInitSession Function

Action

The Silk4NETInitSession function connects to a Windows Terminal Server session and opens a remote desktop user session. If no user name or password is provided, the function uses the user name and password that are saved in the profile settings. If you want to run the test on your local console, do not set user credentials in the profile settings or the script.

注: Color depth settings defined using this function override profile settings configured in Silk Performer in the profile settings: Profile settings > GUI-Level Testing > General > Session settings. When the optional uColorDepth parameter is omitted, profile settings are used. The default color-depth setting is 16 bit.

The server may limit maximum color depth. The client cannot force a color depth setting that is higher than is supported by the server. See the Terminal Services Configuration documentation for details about the color-depth limitations of your server version.

By default Silk4NETInitSession raises an error with the severity SEVERITY_PROCESS_EXIT if the function fails to start a valid session. The severity of that error can be adjusted by a custom event handler function. When an error with SEVERITY_PROCESS_EXIT occurs, the rest of the script is ignored and no unsaved results data or measurements will be saved.
