Nagappan,

Thanks a lot for sending the link to that code. It checks for an event, "window:destroy" that is not documented

in my primary source of documentation:

http://library.gnome.org/devel/at-spi-cspi/stable/at-spi-cspi-Registry-queries.html#SPI-registerGlobalEventListener

I registered a listener for window:destroy and received it. Hopefully window:destroy is an event officially supported

by at-spi and not an event that is soon to go away. I see that you are one of the authors of that file -- what

documentation did you read that told you that "window:destroy" was a possible event?

Don't remember exactly. But in general, I check the at-spi/test code and at-poke code for C based development and Orca/atspi for Python based development.

The code also listens for window:close. As I'm sure you've seen, Li Yuan claims that window:close is not implemented

yet in at-spi, so I assume your code has never seen that event, right?

Yes, since we should not miss that event, when implemented, I have just added it to the code :)

Thanks
Nagappan

Hi Sam,

If its C based code you can try this - report_window_event - http://cgit.freedesktop.org/ldtp/ldtp/tree/src/ldtp.c

For python based, you can check here - windowListenerCallback - http://cgit.freedesktop.org/ldtp/ldtp/tree/python/ldtplib/ldtprecorder.py

Thanks

What does it take to get the window:close event to occur? I've tried everything I can think of. Now that I've got Accerciser installed (Thanks Willie Walker) , I set the Event Monitor to watch for only the window->close event, but I can't get it to happen no matter how I make windows go away.

I am experimenting with the "Keyboard Shortcuts" dialog (in gnome-terminal click Edit -> Keyboard Shortcuts...). The dialog has a "Close" push-button. When I click the "Close" button, Accerciser's event monitor does not report a window:close event. If I add window:create to the monitor, the event monitor sees that event when the dialog comes up. So the dialog definitely qualifies as a window.

I do get window:activate and window:deactivate events for the "Keyboard Shortcuts" dialog.
