Example

The following code example demonstrates uses of the some methods of Emulator class.

// set active window
string result = Emulator.ActiveWindow("Simple window");
// check result
if (result == "ok" && !Emulator.ErrorDetected)
{
    // send key "z"
    result = Emulator.SendKey("Simple window", 100, 200, System.Windows.Forms.Keys.Z, KeyboardEvent.Press);
    // check result
    if (result == "ok" && !Emulator.ErrorDetected)
    {
        // send text
        result = Emulator.SendText("Simple window",  100, 200, "Simple text", false);
        // check result
        if (result == "ok" && !Emulator.ErrorDetected)
        {
            // mouse move
            Emulator.MouseMove("Simple window",350, 370);
            // mouse click on button as result it will show save file dialog
            result = Emulator.MouseClick("Simple window", MouseButton.Left, MouseButtonEvent.Click, 350, 370);
            // check result
            if (result == "ok" && !Emulator.ErrorDetected)
            {
                // click on button with text "Save"
                return Emulator.ButtonClick("Save as", "Save");
            }
            else return "Fail";
        }
        else return "Fail";
    }
    else return "Fail";
}
else return "Fail";
// close window
result = Emulator.CloseWindow("Simple window");
// check result
if (result != "ok" || Emulator.ErrorDetected) return "Fail";
return "All done";

// set active window
$result = Emulator:ActiveWindow("Simple window");
// check result
if ($result == "ok" && !Emulator::ErrorDetected)
{
    // send key "z"
    $result = Emulator::SendKey("Simple window", 100, 200, System\Windows\Forms\Keys::Z, KeyboardEvent::Press);
    // check result
    if ($result == "ok" && !Emulator::ErrorDetected)
    {
        // send text
        $result = Emulator::SendText("Simple window",  100, 200, "Simple text", false);
        // check result
        if (result == "ok" && !Emulator.ErrorDetected)
        {
            // mouse move
            Emulator::MouseMove("Simple window", 350, 3700);
            // mouse click on button as result it will show save file dialog
            $result = Emulator::MouseClick("Simple window", MouseButton::Left, MouseButtonEvent::Click, 350, 370);
            // check result
            if ($result == "ok" && !Emulator::ErrorDetected)
            {
                // click on button with text "Save"
                return Emulator::ButtonClick("Save as", "Save");
            }
            else return "Fail";
        }
        else return "Fail";
    }
    else return "Fail";
}
else return "Fail";
// close window
