Get the Window Class

[Scrubby]

Hi All,

I'm looking to get the window class (see the autoIT INfo tool below). I have a handle on the window and it's title, I'd like to get the class name for the window programmatically! I can't find out where to get it at. Anyone got this laying around on their computer?

Class: MozillaUIWindowClass <<< ---- (I want to get this info)

Try this:

$list = WinList()
for $x = 1 to $list[0][0]
    ;filter out empty titles
    If $list[$x][0] <> "" Then
        ConsoleWrite(StringFormat("Title:%s  Classname:%s",$list[$x][0],_GetClassName($list[$x][1])&@LF))
    EndIf
Next

Edit: I did not try passing the handle to WinGetClassList builtin function. I use this function mostly as a replacement for vb's TypeOf function.
