Arduino Uploaded notification

[Bobbins]

I am trying to get autoit to notify me and give a popup message of some kind once arduino finishes compiling.

I have seen that you can detect when windows are opened or closed so is there perhaps anyway that autoit can detect changes in programs like a change in text written in the program, or even better when upload state changes to finish.

If there is anyway to approach this I would appreciate it.

Thanks in advance!

You answered your questions.

Look at WinGetText, an StringInStr.

Those in a loop with a bit of logic should be all you need.

I have made a code for getting the string but when it launches nothing occurs. Did i make a mistake somewhere?

This is my code and the window I'm trying to get the string from

#include <Constants.au3>

WinWaitActive("[CLASS:SunAwtFrame]")

Send("^u")
Local $sText = WinGetText("[CLASS:SunAwtFrame]")
Local $iEvaluate = StringInStr ($sText, "Done uploading.", 0)
if $iEvaluate > 0 Then
WinClose("[CLASS:SunAwtFrame]")
Exit
EndIf

I think after Send, you probably need to loop the remaining code.

#include <Constants.au3>

WinWaitActive("[CLASS:SunAwtFrame]")

Send("^u")
While 3
  Local $sText = WinGetText("[CLASS:SunAwtFrame]")
  Local $iEvaluate = StringInStr ($sText, "Done uploading.", 0)
  if $iEvaluate > 0 Then
    WinClose("[CLASS:SunAwtFrame]")
    MsgBox(0,0,0); just as indicator
    Exit
  EndIf
WEnd

I tried your code but to no avail, there isn't any popups showing up after the upload is done.

[JohnOne]

the code is not looking for a pop up

@JohnOne - I think he means message box when he says popup.  I think the issue may be the Arduino window.  I have Arduino also and tried to read the text but Au3Info returns some kind of container "SunAwtFrame" - presumably Java that may not behave like a regular window.  I could not read the text.   As a first step to see if that is right, is the ever a situation in which you are able to read any text from that window before you start searching for the done message?  If the answer is no then you may need to consider the >UI Automation Framework to read/find the appropriate text.
