Problem resolved.
First -- I don't actually know if this is, or is not, a modal dialog, since the:
"if (modal = ie.modal_dialog(:hwnd, hwnd))"
statement cannot be parsed (because apparently, even in the 1081 code branch
the :hwnd parameter is not recognized for this method call.)
However, I resolved the problem by brute force (non elegantly.) This is how I
did it.
===
require 'watir'
require 'test/unit'
class TC_article_example < Test::Unit::TestCase
def test_search
# open the IE browser
ie = Watir::IE.new
# steer to google
ie.goto('http://www.google.com/')
# load the search field
ie.text_field(:name, "q").set("pickaxe")
#Ensure popup won't block Watir
ie.button(:name, "btnG").click_no_wait
#Handle the popup
hwnd = ie.enabled_popup(5)
if (hwnd) #yes there is a popup
p hwnd
w = WinClicker.new
w.makeWindowActive(hwnd)
w.clickWindowsButton_hwnd(hwnd, "Yes")
end
# insert pause or it doesn't work...
sleep 3
# Validate response
assert(ie.pageContainsText("Programming Ruby"))
end
end
===
The key things.
1st, I used the click no wait feature: ie.button(:name, "btnG").click_no_wait
2nd, I made use of the new "enabled_popup" functionality to get hwnd.
3rd, I used WinClicker to access and kill the security popup
4th and finally, I had to insert that sleep statement or...it would fail with
this error on the assert call: "<nil> is not true." Why this should occur I
don't know and I find troubling...perhaps someone can explain why this works.
