Get ProcessId of a Form

Hiya

I want to get the process Id of the owner of a dialog:
e.g.

Dim objForm As ranorex.Form = "/form[@Class='#32770']"

How can I get the ProcessId from the Form object ?

Just cast your form object to "Ranorex.NativeWindow" and then access the ProcessId property.
(you will need a Ranorex.Win32Plugin.dll reference for this)

-or-

use objForm.Element.GetAttributeValue("processid")

Ok thanks

GetAttributeValue ... has no documentation about what the attibute name can be, what are the possible values ?

Cheers

That depends on the element. You can use all attributes visible in the spy "overview" tab.

Hoever, we recommend using the adapters. A list of all available adapters (e.g. Form, NativeWindow) is available in the API doc, Ranorex namespace
