Just an idea - create a proxy in C# that calls
TreeWalker.ControlViewWalker.GetFirstChild and other methods for you and
return you the results. Maybe it will work. The similar way I created
the C# proxy to access Win32API functions

I have been playing around UI Automation and IronPython for several
days now. My impression is that they don't play each other well. Or
maybe I missed something.
I am trying to dig deeper to understand why.....
Probably this issue is not fixed
yet? http://blogs.msdn.com/b/shrib/archive/2008/03/24/ironpython-cannot-call-automationelement-fromhandle.aspx

Hello to all,
over many years I have forced to implement a test automation
scenerie in our company.
Now they will do it and - who hat thougth that - I've got the job!
And I had to bring the job to success!
My Environment:
------------------------
I've succesfully presented a test automation solution only build
from Internet-Software. It includes:
Keyword-Driven Tables in HTML (done with Winword)
!
Python 2.6
!
Robot-Framework
! !
ApplTestlib.py SeleniumLibrary
! !
pyWinAuto WEB-AppToTest
!
WIN32-AppToTest
Later we will embed the solution in a QAtrac process.
Now it's time to test automate GUIs build from Windows-Forms and
WPF too.
First I switched Python 2.6 to IronPython 2.6[and 2.6.1 RC1] and
got only one, but 'very magic', bug in Robot-Framework when
creating the HTML-Report-File.
Second I'm switched the pyWinAuto-Layer to Miscrosoft UI
Automation (.NET >= 3.0) to support all GUI-Frameworks (WIN32,
WINFORMS and WPF)
I. In IronPython all UI Automation values ControlTypePropertys
(w/o the window itself) where Type 'panel'. Other values are also
not the same as you can see
with UISpy or UIA Verify (Tool from Codeplex 'white'-Project). The
AutomationIDs has the values from NativeWindowHandles (unique
- but never the same from run to run!).
Only the NamePropertys are OK but often empty (when control has no
text content yet).
II. All Controls in the window title (titlebar, menubar,
menuitems, and min-, max- and close-Button) where completely
hidden in Automation-Tree (I've tested with Raw-, Control- and
ContentViews)! These eight controls are from IronPython-UI
Automation not reachable. This may be a consequence from point I.
above.
In this situation it's unpossible for me to identify Controls in
the application to automate!
I have found, I run in exactly the same problems witch where
reported from Jozef in November 2009:
http://lists.ironpython.com/pipermail/users-ironpython.com/2009-November/011583.html
and heself stated a own solution in
http://lists.ironpython.com/pipermail/users-ironpython.com/2009-November/011630.html
The solution reads:
'Thanks for your response.
Solution to my problem is to first instantiate AutomationElement
from dll, not from IronPython.
Then all subsequent AutomationElement retrieved from IronPython
looks ok.'
About 30 years I have programmed in ANSI-C (Same SW on
Windows,VMS, Linux, etc.) but now being a newbie to C#, .NET and
Python.
Therefore I should have an (syntax-)example for the expression:
'to first instantiate AutomationElement from dll'
Witch DLL (Own written, .NET-DLL. ??)
How to instantiate in C#?
How to transport the AutomationElement to IronPython?
The best will be if jozef.a... will give me some example lines of
code from his solution in nov 2009 in C# and/or Python. Thanks.
Greetings
Wolfram
