fishweasel Posted April 20, 2011 Share Posted April 20, 2011 Good Morning, I am having a small issue in getting the handle for the console window that launched the process - which then tries to get its own handle. If i may elaborate. I have a script compiled as a console app. When run, i need to write commands directly back into the command window that launched the exe. There may be numerous cmd windows open, so looking for a class wouldnt be enough. The command prompt could be launched from desktop or system32 so title wont be enough either. So what i am asking is, is it possible to get the hwnd for the command prompt window that launched the script ? My code is as follows : expandcollapse popup#Region ;**** Directives created by AutoIt3Wrapper_GUI **** #AutoIt3Wrapper_Change2CUI=y #EndRegion ;**** Directives created by AutoIt3Wrapper_GUI **** #Include <WinAPI.au3> ; ; validate parameters ; ; if no parmeters, assume launched via desktop and open GUI exe ; ; if 1 paramater, assume lanched from cmd line and return error for insuficient parameters ; ; if 2 paramters, use this info and launch console procedure if $CmdLine[0] = 0 Then ;launch gui and terminate launcher Run("C:\GuiPart.exe", "", @SW_MAXIMIZE) Exit EndIf if $CmdLine[0] = 1 Then ; generate console error and terminate ConsoleWrite ("") ConsoleWrite ("Error - command not specified") ConsoleWrite ("") Exit EndIf if $CmdLine[0] = 2 Then ; valid parameters passed - start console process $tillno = $CmdLine[1] $cmd = $CmdLine[2] ConsoleWrite ("") ConsoleWrite ("Here we go") ConsoleWrite ("") ConsoleWrite ("") ;; ^^^^ all working fine above ; get hwnd and write commands to it. Local $hWnd = WinGetHandle("[CLASS:ConsoleWindowClass]") Local $sHWND = String($hWnd) ; Convert to a string _WinAPI_PostMessage($hWnd, "dir c:\" & @CRLF) EndIf Exit Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
