问题
I'm working on a little macro record/replay tool which can automate a few very old Visual Basic 6 GUIs we have. To do so, I'm identifying the controls by their name (the value of the name property of a control, that is).
One part of this tool needs to determine the name of a control given its HWND. For newer Visual Basic applications which were done using VB.NET, I can use the WM_GETCONTROLNAME window message. This works nicely.
However, this message is not understood by older windows. Is there any way to do this for controls of Visual Basic 6 applications? A solution which does not require being in the process of the GUI would be preferrable, but if I had a solution which only works inside the GUI process then that would be acceptable as well (since I can do the injection myself).
UPDATE: One thing I just tried, this moderate success: I used the AccessibleObjectFromWindow to check for implementations of the IAccessible interface of the object which shows the given HWND. In case I get an implementation (it seems that many [all?] Visual Basic controls implement this interface), I use the accName property to read out the "accessible name". Sometimes this does yield a useful string, but usually it doesn't.
回答1:
I believe the only way would be getting inside the process and obtaining a pointer to the Form object, yet I have no idea how to do it from outside.
Is it possible you add support for the WM_GETCONTROLNAME to those older applications?
Or maybe, you could identify the controls by some other, natively-available properties?
Other that that, as Raymond is saying, there isn't much you can do.
回答2:
Can you modify the vb6 apps? if so in each form load event you could iterate me.controls and use the SetProp(ctrl.hwnd, "MYNAME:" & ctrl.name, 0) api to add the name to the window's own property list, then in your other app you can EnumProps(ctrl_HWND) looking for the one that begins with MYNAME: and parse out the value.
