Example

The following code example demonstrates uses of the ActiveWindow method. In this code activated the three windows. The first and the second are shown without parameter topMost (topMost is false). But the third window is shown on top of all.

// activate the first window just show it string result = Emulator.ActiveWindow("First window"); // if was not any errors if (result == "ok" && !Emulator.ErrorDetected) { // also activate the second window just show it but set the parameters topMost == false result = Emulator.ActiveWindow("Second window", false); // if was not any errors if (result == "ok" && !Emulator.ErrorDetected) { // also activate the third window and show on top of all. Set the parameters topMost == true result = Emulator.ActiveWindow("Third window", true); // if all nice if (result == "ok" && !Emulator.ErrorDetected) return "All in openwork boss!"; // if bad else return "Fail: The third window"; } else return "Fail: The second window"; } else return "Fail: The first window";
