Microsoft Windows Support



The three libraries documented in this chapter turn Ruby into a powerful and convenient Windows scripting language. Now you have the power to control your applications, but in a controlled, object-oriented environment.

klassen WIN32OLE
Forelder: Object
Versjon: 1.6

Indeks:

connect const_load new [ ] [ ]= each invoke


require 'win32ole'
ie = WIN32OLE.new('InternetExplorer.Application')
ie.visible = true
ie.gohome

WIN32OLE provides a client interface to Windows 32 OLE Automation servers. See the tutorial description on page 164 for more information.

konstanter
WIN32OLE::VERSION Current version number

klassemetoder
connect WIN32OLE.connect( aString ) -> wapi

Returns a new OLE automation client connected to an existing instance of the named automation server.

const_load WIN32OLE.const_load( wapi, [ aClass=WIN32OLE ] ) -> nil

Defines the constants from the specified automation server as class constants in aClass.

new WIN32OLE.new( aString ) -> wapi

Returns a new OLE automation client connected to a new instance of the automation server named by aString.

instansmetoder
[ ] wapi[ aString ] -> anObject

Returns the named property from the OLE automation object.

[ ]= wapi[ aString ] = aValue -> nil

Sets the named property in the OLE automation object.

each wapi.each {| anObj | block }

-> nil

Iterates over each item of this OLE server that supports the IEnumVARIANT interface.

invoke wapi.invoke ( aCmdString, [ args ]* ) -> anObject

Invokes the command given in aCmdString with the given args. args may be a Hash of named parameters and values. You don't need to call invoke explicitly; this class uses method_missing to forward calls through invoke, so you can simply use the OLE methods as methods of this class.

klassen WIN32OLE_EVENT
Forelder: Object
Versjon: 1.6

Indeks:

message_loop new on_event


This (slightly modified) example from the Win32OLE 0.1.1 distribution shows the use of an event sink.

require 'win32ole'

$urls = []

def navigate(url)   $urls << url end

def stop_msg_loop   puts "IE has exited..."   throw :done end

def default_handler(event, *args)   case event   when "BeforeNavigate"     puts "Now Navigating to #{args[0]}..."   end end

ie = WIN32OLE.new('InternetExplorer.Application') ie.visible = TRUE ie.gohome ev = WIN32OLE_EVENT.new(ie, 'DWebBrowserEvents')

ev.on_event {|*args| default_handler(*args)} ev.on_event("NavigateComplete") {|url| navigate(url)} ev.on_event("Quit") {|*args| stop_msg_loop}

catch(:done) {   loop {     WIN32OLE_EVENT.message_loop   } }

puts "You Navigated to the following URLs: " $urls.each_with_index do |url, i|   puts "(#{i+1}) #{url}" end

WIN32OLE_EVENT is used in conjunction with the WIN32OLE class to add callbacks for Windows 32 events.
klassemetoder
message_loop WIN32OLE_EVENT.message_loop -> nil

Executes the Windows event loop, translating and dispatching events.

new WIN32OLE_EVENT.new ( anOle, aName ) -> wapi

Returns a new WIN32OLE_EVENT (an event sink) for the given WIN32OLE object and named event source. If aName is nil, it will attempt to use the default source and will raise a RuntimeError if it cannot find one.

instansmetoder
on_event wapi.on_event ( [ anEvent ] ) {| args | block }

-> nil

Defines a callback for the named anEvent. If anEvent is nil, then this callback is associated with all events. The block will be given any arguments appropriate for this event.

klassen Win32API
Forelder: Object
Versjon: 1.6

Indeks:

new call Call


This example is from the Ruby distribution, in ext/Win32API:

require 'Win32API'

getCursorPos = Win32API.new("user32", "GetCursorPos", ['P'], 'V')

lpPoint = " " * 8 # store two LONGs getCursorPos.Call(lpPoint) x, y = lpPoint.unpack("LL") # get the actual values

print "x: ", x, "\n" print "y: ", y, "\n"

ods = Win32API.new("kernel32", "OutputDebugString", ['P'], 'V') ods.Call("Hello, World\n")

GetDesktopWindow = Win32API.new("user32", "GetDesktopWindow", [], 'L') GetActiveWindow = Win32API.new("user32", "GetActiveWindow", [], 'L') SendMessage = Win32API.new("user32", "SendMessage", ['L'] * 4, 'L') SendMessage.Call(GetDesktopWindow.Call, 274, 0xf140, 0)

The Win32API module allows access to any arbitrary Windows 32 function. Many of these functions take or return a Pointer datatype---a region of memory corresponding to a C string or structure type.

In Ruby, these pointers are represented using class String, which contains a sequence of 8-bit bytes. It is up to you to pack and unpack the bits in the String. See the reference section for unpack on page 378 and pack on page 286 for details.
klassemetoder
new Win32API.new( dllname, procname, importArray, export ) -> wapi

Returns a new object representing a Windows 32 API function. dllname is the name of the DLL containing the function, such as ``user32'' or ``kernel32.'' procname is the name of the desired function. importArray is an array of strings representing the types of arguments to the function. export is a string representing the return type of the function. Strings ``n'' and ``l'' represent numbers, ``i'' represent integers, ``p'' represents pointers to data stored in a string, and ``v'' represents a void type (used for export parameters only). These strings are case-insensitive.

instansmetoder
call wapi.call( [ args ]* ) -> anObject

Calls this API function with the given arguments, which must match the signature specified to new.

Call wapi.Call( [ args ]* ) -> anObject

Synonym for Win32API#call.
