in thread Perl on Windows: automate WPF applications, similar to Win32::GUI ?

Hi dasgar,

Since all windows is based on window ids/handles ... you can use Win32::GUI to automate the widgets provided by the module, they use the same APIs (user32.dll / gdi32.dll), its must easier to use Win32::GUI to deal with a list control than it is to use straight guitest calls

WPF is a totally new api/library, and neither guitest nor win32::gui will work well with those, you have to use WPF IUAutomation... good luck with that
