PTO Assessment Probability is apparently not stored

by Will, 2017/09/08

Our testing suggests that if we do something like the following while building a TDR:

AddPTOAssessment(index, flag, category, ability, description, 57.0f)

Then the 57.0% probability is not stored. 

The AddPTOAssessment() call will apparently complete successfully, but calling 

GetPTOAssessmentProbability(index) immediately afterwards will return -1, not 57.0.  It also appears that the probability is not written to the TDR file.

This is using the 64-bit version of sdicos_win_vs2015_r20170608

Is this a bug or are we misuing the library somehow?

Thanks,

Will

Christian,

Thanks for this - makes sense.  The CT_With_TDR.cpp example will need a tweak, as that uses 98 to set 98% rather than 0.98.

Might also be worth removing the word "percentage" from the comments in ScdsTemplateTDR.h (I guess that's where the docs come from anyway.

Thanks again,

Will

Will,

The assessment probability value must be a value between 0.0 and 1.0.  Calling the function with the assessment probablity of 0.57 will solve the issue.  The documention does not state this within the User-Level API and will be revised in the next update to include this information.  The function returning true even though the value was not accepted is a bug that will be fixed in the next update.
