Spy on toolbars, commandbars etc

[junkew]

Over time I made a small spy on the objects that are not default in AU3Info spied on

As in new release ticket #140 wish was added to AU3Info and I missed still some things I decided to share at least below code that easily spies on treeview, commandbars, toolbars etc. a level deeper then AU3Info does that normally takes me a lot of time to find out by hand.

Additions please share them and maybe later adds a ticket for wishes of AU3Info

usage: run the script, hover the mouse over the toolbar, commandbar you want information on, press the hotkey alt+shift+a

Somehow I don't get the text of the toolbarwindow32 whereas AU3Info does this properly on ToolsBar tab (latest version has this tab) but seems to have a bug (reported in tracker) as only instance 1 information is retrieved.

Hey, I found the same issue where the _GUICtrlToolbar_GetButtonText was returning '' as in empty string, but not every time.

So I went in the GuiToolbar.au3 and commented out this line flagged below in the code.

Seems like this was excluding text that is one character is length, or that's my guess anyway. The code seems to work for me now.

Maybe there should be a ticket created? I'm not too well versed in that.

If $fUnicode Then
                $iBuffer = _SendMessage($hWnd, $TB_GETBUTTONTEXTW, $iCommandID)
        Else
                $iBuffer = _SendMessage($hWnd, $TB_GETBUTTONTEXTA, $iCommandID)
        EndIf

        If $iBuffer = 0 Then Return SetError(True, 0, "")
;---->  If $iBuffer = 1 Then Return SetError(False, 0, "")
        If $iBuffer <= -1 Then Return SetError(False, -1, "")

Code looks nice. It's usefull.

It would be good to add retriving of ToolTips especially for Toolbar's buttons.
