Reading from java app.

[dbzfanatic]

I have a java program that has a file list and I need a way to read those files. As of now my idea is to open the location in IE, Read the body text, and see if the filename is in the returned string. Is there a way to do this direcly in the java app? Normally I'd just use the control functions but this is all that's returned from the Window Info tool.

Is there a way to get the file list directly from the java app?

There was a post back in '07 that may help you; while Au3Info may not be able to return the controls from your individual window, the following information may:

I have found another solution though, which seems like it might work....

By using Java Ferret (Java's version of Auto-It's Window Info program) I can get the handles and classnames to call

by installing the Java Access Bridge and its incorporated dll, windowsaccessbridge.dll, I should be able to use a DllCall() to the Dll and then select menus through this. This would be a much smarter approach.

The following code is something I'm trying to get working. By using an example Java Swing program, I tried to find the controls in it using the Java Ferret.

Now I know my call to the command prompt ain't the cleanest, but I don't care about it for the moment, I really wasn't bothereb being perfect about it, I can clean that later.

Run("cmd.exe")
WinWaitActive("C:\WINDOWS\system32\cmd.exe")
Send( "cd \Progra~1\Java\jdk1.6.0_02\bin{ENTER}")
Send( "java JMenuDemo{ENTER}")

; Wait for the JMenu Usage Demo to become active - it is titled "JMenu Usage Demo" on English systems
WinWaitActive("JMenu Usage Demo")

WinActivate ( "JMenu Usage Demo" )
AutoItSetOption("SendKeyDelay", 400)

$dll = DllOpen("windowsaccessbridge.dll")
$hwnd = ControlClick("[Class:SunAWTFrame]", "&Menu 1", "", "left", 1)
$menu = ControlClick("[Class:SunAWTFrame]", "Menu Item with PlainText", "","left", 1)

ControlFocus("[Class:SunAWTFrame]","JMenu Usage Demo")
DllCall($dll, "void", "Windows_run")
DllCall($dll, "void", "AccessBridge_FocusGainedFP", "hwnd", $hwnd)
DllCall($dll, "void", "setMouseClickedFP(MouseClickedDelegate fp)")

It's not exactly what you are looking for, but should point you in the proper direction. While Au3Info may not return the results for you, that Java Ferrett program may return the proper &ControlID's for you to work with, and scrape the information you need w/ the various Control* functions in Autoit.

The code example was just what 'MadMike' was working on, not really relevant to what you are doing, but, you can at least see his train of thought.
