Deriving a TestObject for the active window

Resolving The Problem

Use the getPid method on the IWindow returned by the getActiveWindow window to find the process id for the window.

Use the getDomains method to return all of the Java and HTML domains running on the computer. Run the getTopObjects method on those domains, which returns the top objects as type TestObject. For each top object, run the getProcess method to retrieve its corresponding ProcessTestObject. On each ProcessTestObject, run the getProcessId method to return its process id. Then compare the process ids returned by this method with the process id returned by the getActiveWidow method to determine which top object TestObject corresponds to the active window. Since the getDomains method only returns Java and HTML domains, this comparison is only possible if the active window is a Java or HTML object.

What follows is sample code that uses this approach

IWindow aw = getScreen().getActiveWindow();
TestObject to = getActiveTOWindow(aw);
if (to != null)
{
System.out.println("Active Window is a Java or HTML app");
}
else
{
System.out.println("Active Window NOT a Java or HTML app");
}

long awPID = (long)aw.getPid();

DomainTestObject[] dto = getDomains();
for(int i = 0; i < dto.length; i++)
{
TestObject[] topTO = dto[i].getTopObjects();
int topCount = (topTO != null ? topTO.length : 0);
for(int j = 0; j < topCount; j++)
{
long PID = topTO[j].getProcess().getProcessId();
if (awPID == PID)
return (topTO[j]);
}//end of inner for loop
}//end of outer for loop

return null;
