I did not try this in gambas, but I read the docs. The Desktop.find()
method takes "regular expression" parameters, so if you search for a
window class, and you do not know the other strings, you should specify
them using a pattern:
hPointer = Desktop.Find(".*", "Gpartedbin", ".*")
I am not sure if empty strings ("") work, so you should try with ".*"
which matches any string.
What you receive is an array of all the windows matching your request,
so you can try also:
hPointer = Desktop.Find(".*", "partedbi", ".*")
(note that "partedbi", as regular expression, should match "Gpartedbin",
"gpartedbin", and so on...
Then you can analyze hPointer.count to see if a meaningful result is
returned. If .count is 1, then you are done; hPointer[0] is the value
you need to embed.
I opened a shell, and typed:
xprop |grep WM_CLASS
then clicked in a firefox window, and got:
WM_CLASS(STRING) = "firefox-bin", "Firefox-bin"
I don't know why there are two strings (class and instance?), but
passing "irefox-bin" to Desktop.Find() should work.
Hope this is useful - cheers.
