                                AROexception

                               throws java.io.IOException,
                                      AROexception

Returns the text (caption) of the window. This is essentially a front-end to the Microsoft Win32 SDK routine of the same name. This ARO request is processed immediately, regardless of the state of the ARO server application.

getNextWindow

public MSwindow getNextWindow()
                       throws java.io.IOException,
                              AROexception

Returns the next window in the OS's Z-order; that is, the window immediately below this one. This is essentially a front-end to the Microsoft Win32 SDK routine of the same name. This ARO request is processed immediately, regardless of the state of the ARO server application.

getPrevWindow

public MSwindow getPrevWindow()
                       throws java.io.IOException,
                              AROexception

Returns the previous window in the OS's Z-order; that is, the window immediately above this one. This is essentially a front-end to the Microsoft Win32 SDK routine of the same name. This ARO request is processed immediately, regardless of the state of the ARO server application.

getTopWindow

public MSwindow getTopWindow()
                      throws java.io.IOException,
                             AROexception

Returns the topmost child window. This is essentially a front-end to the Microsoft Win32 SDK routine of the same name. This ARO request is processed immediately, regardless of the state of the ARO server application.

getHandle

public int getHandle()
              throws java.io.IOException,
                     AROexception

Returns the window's handle. There is nothing programmatic that you can do with this handle, but it is provided as a diagnostic tool for use with other tools such as Spy. This ARO request is processed immediately, regardless of the state of the ARO server application.
