How to write ControlID in AutoIt library

[midnig...@gmail.com]

Hi, I  just started using  AutoIt library. I am having problem to perform typing on a textfield. I experimented with  Autoit SciTE as follows and that works perfect:

AutoIT:

                                           ControlSend("Add a contact","","[ID:1102]","something")

But If I use same thing from RIDE as follows it does not  work:

                                          Control Send    Add a contact    {EMPTY}    [Id:1102]    something

Can anyone please help in this regard?

BR,

The AutoItLibrary wraps the AutoItX COM object.  Sometimes its keyword methods are not the same as the ones you would use in AutoIt’s own “language”.  Check the KW documentation in C:\RobotFramework\Extensions\AutoItLibrary\AutoItLibrary.html or in RIDE for details.

 

Cheers,

Martin

Hi, Thanks for your reply. I checked the documentation before using it. The parameter order is same in both cases for that function mentioned here. There is no example of how to write control id in documentation either. So still in problem .

  Hi ,

I want to Automate a java based desktop application.Can I use robotframework  AuoItlibrary  for this purpose?

Thanks,

Hi,

as far as I remember AutoIt works with COM objects. For Java you should use Robot Framework Remote Swing Library.

Best Regards,

Ugh

AutoIT[1] should have a viewer, which allows you to see are the UI application controls visible to the AutoIT. Unfortunately I can't find from the mobile site, where that viewer is located.

https://github.com/lucyking/robotframework-autoitlibrary/tree/master/3rdPartyTools/AutoIt path to autoIt tools - I think Tatu is refering to Au3Info.exe

Thanks, I think also that it was that one. Download and run the exe, it should open a UI which allows you to view the controls of your application.

For Java you need to use special branch - https://www.autoitscript.com/forum/topic/87956-java-udf/ , so in my opinion is better to use something (Remote Swing Library) design for Java, which use internal Java applications elements. A specially because you will not able to control some elements like lists.
