Hi, I've been trying to play with using the Accessibility API to do some automated testing.
>From what I have researched, I have to use some C functions that often need a >reference passed to the them. I am at a loss when trying to deal with Pointer objects. I've tried playing with them and googling it, but I just cannot figure out how to turn a pointer into a more useful type or to get what I want out of them. For example, I can start like this: framework 'Cocoa' unless AXAPIEnabled() # only works if I include the parenthesis puts 'Please enable Access for Assistive Devices first' exit 2 end mail = NSRunningApplication.runningApplicationsWithBundleIdentifier('com.apple.Mail').first mail_object = AXUIElementCreateApplication mail.processIdentifier names = Pointer.new :object AXUIElementCopyAttributeNames mail_object, names But then how do I get the values out of the names pointer? For reference, I found the functions in AXUIElement.h.
