Subject: RE: Can I alter Window-Eyes behavior in a WE4Java environment?
To: "[email protected]" <[email protected]>
Doug,
I am the author of WE4Java. I am actually working on a new version which I hope
will be more compatible with windows 7 and with 64-bit Java.
At this time, you can't actually manipulate the objects like what you are
talking about within WE4Java. Java doesn't create object handles as we think of
them for the screen controls and events. The Java access Bridge attempts to
simulate this to a degree but WE4Java does not as this tends to be somewhat
unpredictable.
NOTE: I am at work today and can't contact the scripting list from this e-mail
account. would you mind forwarding this response to the scripting list?

Subject: Can I alter Window-Eyes behavior in a WE4Java environment?
Not sure if the author of WE4Java is still floating around on here, but I have
a question, for him or anyone else sufficiently familiar with the WE4Java
system:
I want to alter WE's behavior for some Java controls. In straight WE, the
obvious thing is to connect to events and handle them. However, I don't see
any way to do this in the WE4Java environment, because the shared WE4JavaUtils
class doesn't provide either outgoing event functionality or properties
enabling me to, say, grab my own reference to an ObjectInfo object and capture
its event calls.
Is there a way to do this that I missed?
