Robot SE Customization

Customize Robot SE RoboViewModel

1. Create a new Class library project.
2. Add below reference DLLs to the project.
   1. PresentationCore.dll
   2. PresentationFramework.dll
   3. RobotViewModel
   4. System.Xaml
   5. Utilities.Interfaces
   6. WindowsBase
3. Derive the new custom class from the RoboViewModel.ViewModel.RoboViewModel class.
4. Write a constructor to this custom class and pass the respective parameters to the base class.
5. Once done, override the below methods as per the business requirement.
   1. StartHeartBeat: This generates the robot and sends a heartbeat.
   2. InitializeMQAdapter: This method initializes the connections with the message queues.
   3. MQAdaptor_MessageReceivedEvent: This method is attached to the message queues received event.
   4. vmRoboController_ResponseGeneratedEvent: This method generates response event raised attached to the RoboController’s response completed.

Code snippet:

6. Build this custom robot view model.
7. In the RoboView project, add this newly created custom robot view model dll. Add the RobotViewModel DLL.
8. In the RView constructor, create the instance of this newly created custom robo view model class with the respective param- eters and assign it to datacontext of RoboView project.

Below is the code snippet of the custom robot view model.

Customize Robot SE UI

1. Create a new WPF application project in Visual studio.
2. Copy the “App.config” from default Roboview project to this newly created project.
3. Add ‘Robocommands.html’ and’Robocommands.xml’ files to the project.
4. Add Configurations folder to the project and below files to the configurations folder.
   1. MQConfiguration.xml
   2. RobotDetails.xml
5. Add Images folder to the project and below files to the images folder.
   1. ev_logo_woInfy.png
   2. logo.gif
   3. top_left_close_btn.png
6. Add references to following DLLs:
   1. RobotViewModel.dll
   2. UIAutomationProvider.dll
   3. Utilities.AppSettingsManager.dll
   4. Utilities.CustomMessageBox.dll
   5. Utilities.Interfaces.dll
7. Create the required view in MainWindow.xaml or customize the default view xaml.
8. Xaml for the default view:
