UI Automation provides programmatic access to most user interface (UI) elements on the desktop, enabling assistive technology products such as screen readers to provide information about the UI to end users and to manipulate the UI by means other than standard input. UI Automation also allows automated test scripts to interact with the UI.
This is UI Automation class-wrapped for ahkv2-beta.1.

cool, this will be super useful
but why is everything wrapped in some UiError function? ComCall would already throw if there was an error

Nice project! Do you have any test scripts?
@swagfag
I think thqby wants the name of the calling function. OSError(some_error, -2)

so it wouldnt even be able to get to run that function
he needs something like
Code: Select all
MyComCall(Args*) {
try
return ComCall(Args*)
catch Error as E
{
ErrorType := %Type(E)%
throw ErrorType((ErrorType is OSError) ? E.Number : E.Message, -2, E.Extra)
}
}
it more plausible that this was copypasted from somewhere that already had this wrapper in place...
in which case
* @author thqby probly needs a revision or two(not to diminish ur accomplishments, but lets not kid ourselves)

Oh, My idea is to show the cause of the error and the caller, but I forgot that comcall already throw.
And thank you for your warning.
It based on
neptercn's UIA2, and I added a few extra interfaces and tweaked some.
