Problem with 2 IE Objects

Valuater · January 9, 2006

can't seem to get this one...

per help, I read the object create as.. "Use ObjCreate if you want to have a new instance of the referring application."

here is an example... it gives an error

#include <GUIConstants.au3>

$gui = GUICreate ( "Embedded Web control Test", 630, 580,(@DesktopWidth-640)/2, (@DesktopHeight-580)/2 , $WS_OVERLAPPEDWINDOW + $WS_VISIBLE + $WS_CLIPSIBLINGS)

$GUI_Button_win2    = GuiCtrlCreateButton   ("IE Two",  230, 520, 100,  30)
GUISetState ()    ;Show GUI

$oIE = ObjCreate("Shell.Explorer.2")

; Create a simple GUI for our output
$win1 = GUICreate ( "Embedded Web control Test", 600, 360, 10, 40, $WS_CHILD + $WS_BORDER, "", $gui)
$GUIActiveX         = GUICtrlCreateObj      ( $oIE,     -1, -1, 600 , 360 )

For some reason, both embedded controls are being added to the first child GUI. The window Z-order is:

"Embedded Web control Test"
    "Embedded Web control Test"
        "Shell Embedding"
        "Shell Embedding"
    "Embedded Web control Test2"

It needs to be:

"Embedded Web control Test"
    "Embedded Web control Test"
        "Shell Embedding"
    "Embedded Web control Test2"
        "Shell Embedding"

Seems like a bug in AutoIt to me but I could be wrong. I tried inserting GUISwitch() statements to make sure the right window was last active but that was to no avail. Perhaps JP can comment further as to whether or not this is a bug.

That being said, I wouldn't use 2 child GUI's at all. I would create however many IE objects I needed and place them all on the 1 child GUI. Then I would use the Visible property of IE to show the correct instance on the fly.

i say just make 2 seperate ones and when $win2 is clicked it runs the other browser whcih could be installed in the temp or something thats if u cant get this to work

It works better when you connect $GUIActiveX3 to $oIE3 and $GUIActiveX4 to $oIE4.

look at the GUICtrlCreateObj.

Hope this helps.

Probably not an AutoIt bug but a Programmer bug

rightio....

thx

but i still would like to know about the two+ child gui's with objects

jpm · January 9, 2006

For some reason, both embedded controls are being added to the first child GUI. The window Z-order is:
"Embedded Web control Test"
    "Embedded Web control Test"
        "Shell Embedding"
        "Shell Embedding"
    "Embedded Web control Test2"
It needs to be:
"Embedded Web control Test"
    "Embedded Web control Test"
        "Shell Embedding"
    "Embedded Web control Test2"
        "Shell Embedding"
Seems like a bug in AutoIt to me but I could be wrong. I tried inserting GUISwitch() statements to make sure the right window was last active but that was to no avail. Perhaps JP can comment further as to whether or not this is a bug.

That being said, I wouldn't use 2 child GUI's at all. I would create however many IE objects I needed and place them all on the 1 child GUI. Then I would use the Visible property of IE to show the correct instance on the fly.

I do my best to correct what's reproducible. I always need the most simpler script that can be reproduced the behaviour. don't expect to much as the comp /object code is beyond my understanding/knowledge.

With the SvenP silence is difficult to answer positively to com/object request.

jpm · January 9, 2006

I correct(?) the Autoit crash of the first script for 3.1.1.101 just avoiding the crash.

Certainly it is an ostrich approach perhaps the real correction has to be different.

Sad, Com will die with his silence?

I hope no. Somebody will takeover if needed

I do my best to correct what's reproducible. I always need the most simpler script that can be reproduced the behaviour. don't expect to much as the comp /object code is beyond my understanding/knowledge.
With the SvenP silence is difficult to answer positively to com/object request.

I was leaning more towards a GUI-related problem with how GUICtrlCreateObj() is setting the parent to the wrong HWND. However, I've not looked at the function so perhaps it is 99% COM based.

I just looked at the code and I see the problem right off. For some reason, Sven made the decision that only one ActiveX control container would be created. That means you can create 1 object or 100 and they will all end up on the same container which means whichever window you create the first ActiveX control on will have the container.

I'm not sure of the logic behind this. This logic definitely does not support multiple windows, however (As evidenced by the original code). Migrating the code to support multiple windows shouldn't be too hard but it might take awhile to look over the code and figure out just why Sven implemented things the way he did.

JP, where can I find all the documentation Sven wrote while he was developing COM? I remember he used to have a bunch of files describing what he had implemented and what needed implemented and things like that. Those are the closest thing to technical documents for COM that we have and I'd like to go over them before I start butchering this code too much.

I uploaded under SvenP what I have archived.

Unfortunately, I saw no detailed texts on the ActiveX container implementation so I will essentially be flying blind with regards to his design decisions.

You are certainly the less blind of us

I've upgraded GUICtrlCreateObj() so it will support multiple GUIs. The example scripts ran with no error.

It should be available in the next beta version.

Valik: I will start making some documentation for developers about GUICtrlCreateObj().
