Load Runner Functions

The document describes various transaction, string, message, run-time, informational, and command line parsing functions available in LoadRunner. Transaction functions mark the beginning and end of transactions and sub-transactions, and retrieve transaction duration and timing data. String functions save data to parameters and evaluate strings. Message functions send debug, error, and status messages. Run-time functions load DLLs, insert think time, and set error handling. Informational functions record custom data points and return host information. Command line functions retrieve variables passed from the LoadRunner controller.
