Hi Geoff,
The only way I can think of right now is to get the handle for the application
main window, and loop through every window with enumerate child windows and
check to see if a class repeats. This is untested, but maybe it would work.
Make a global array of strings. write a call back function that simply adds the
class of the handle of the window that enumerate child windows passes to it.
When enumerate child windows is done, your global string array will contain the
classes of all the windows in the application. Unfortunately I don't see
anything that sorts an array, then you could use string compare to point at two
indexes and compare them to see if the values they point to are equal. But I
guess you could point at the first element of the array and then loop through
the second through the last and see if any of those classes equal the first. If
not, point to the second index and loop starting with the third. Then loop
starting with the third pointing to the fourth. And each time you look through
classes, the loop would be shorter. And finally, you'd either find two classes
that are equal, or you'd be finished looping.

Subject: [jawsscripts] Queery on Doug's bx ToolBox?
Scripters, can anyone tell me if there is a way, either without, or with,
doug's Bx ToolBox installed, of asking the application quickly and easily,
if any other windows, have a particular class?
i.e. if a window doesn't have a name, that is, it's blank, and I wana use
findWindow to locate it uniquely, and so I'm restricted to class as the only
uniquely identifying attribute of the window being searched for,
I just thought it'd be rather handy for me to easily be able to find out, if
any other visible/non-disabled windows in the application, or even perhaps any
of them, might have the same class? such that I might predetermine whether
searching for a window with a given className only, might fail in unforseen
circumstances?
thanks for any thoughts.
Geoff c.
