I would like to capture information from a multi-player internet game in order
to tabulate player statistics. Specifically, I need information from a chat
box within the main play window.
Using the win32 extension (win32gui module: EnumWindows, EnumChildWIndows) I
can obtain a handle to the chat box. At that point, I don't see any apparent
win32 functions to expose the methods available in the chat box and, thereby,
extract the chat text information I need.
So, if I have the handle to a child window, does anyone know how to enumerate
the attributes and methods for that window using Python or its extensions?
(Since the window is not a Python generated window, __dict__ doesn't work, or
I am incorrectly using it: w = CreateWindowFromHandle(hwnd); print
w.__dict__). Also, if I know that a particular method is supported by the
window's class (e.g., GetText), can I use the window's handle to access the
method (i.e., text = hwnd.GetText) ? Or, what is the correct syntax?
Thanks for your help.
Mike
