Ranorex is not able to detect controls implemented in C++ : General Questions

[jara]

Hi,

When I tried to detect the controls which are implemented in C++ application, Ranorex is not able to detect the controls. Is this an expected behavior, since Ranorex itself is written in C# ?

Hi!

Please can you post us a Ranorex Snapshot of your application? So it's easier for use to help your with the issue.

Please find the attached snapshot file,
The buttons inside the table are not getting detected by Ranorex.

We identified this to be a limitation of the ListView control handling. Ranorex currently does not recognize child controls of ListView32 windows. We will fix this bug in the next minor release V2.3.1!

Thanks for reporting this issue!

Thanks for your reply.

Is there any other way to automate the MFC control(button) implemented in C++ which is under listview ? Say by setting the AccessibleName and AccessibleRole ?

I'm not able to find such an option available in MFC. Any help on this would be great.

Thanks,
Jayalakshmi.

Hi!

No sorry there is no other way to handle this issue. But we plan to release the Ranorex Version 2.3.1 by the end of this week.

I examined in 2.3.1 version and found that Ranorex is able to recognize child controls embedded in ListView32.

Thank You peter.
