Re: [Wtr-general] Attaching to windows problem

Found the cause of my problem..

added some extra puts lines to watir.rb _find function

def self._find(how, what)
      shell = WIN32OLE.new("Shell.Application")
      ieTemp = nil
      shell.Windows.each do |window|
      puts window.locationname
      puts "location url"
      puts window.locationURL
      puts "window path"
      puts window.path
      #next unless (window.path =~ /Internet Explorer/ rescue false)
      next unless (window.path =~ /WINDOWS/ rescue false) # this works

window.path on my machine is putting out C:\WINDOWS\ and not matching on /Internet Explorer/

Now over to smarter minds than mine to explain where and how the value of window.path is sourced from ..

I'm using Windows XP - SP2 -- more precisely from About Windows Version 5.1 (Build 2600.xpsp_sp2_gdr.050301-1519 : Service Pack 2)

and

Ruby version: 1.8.2 (I was once under the impression that this was required for watir and haven't had the need to upgrade)

Note:

I had not installed Watir from a gem, obviously when I did it put it in the gems directories.

I had watir files in the C:\ruby\lib\ruby\site_ruby\1.8 directory so I moved the watir.rb and watir folder from here to another location out of my path to make sure it called the right watir files -- did I miss anything here by chance?

The error messages refer to watir 1.5 so it seems it's using the correct version.

Just wondering, as I said I haven't done this before.

------------------------------

There have been a lot of changes in this code in 1.5 and this code is very sensitive to environment.

What version of Windows and Ruby are you using?
