Seeking help,
My name is John Brumbelow, and I am a developer of OptiDoc. I am trying to make a reader/magnifier for our software to read text from any application, including Java Applets, into our C++/VB/C# programs. To explain this need. We have customers who are visually impared, but need to gather information from 3rd party applications, and get it to index information. Sun has an API which makes a good part of this possible. It is called the "Java Access Bridge". This API is usable in C/C++/VB/C# applications, to let them read from Java Applets. But it does not work on all components of Java Applets. In particular, "combo box", "push button", "check box" and other controls do not have functionality in the "Java Access Bridge" (JAB) to get their text. So, I have been struggling to find anything that can take the "Java Access Bridge" or something, the extra step to get the text from "combo box", "push button", and other controls. In my searches, I came across this website of yours: http://lists.cs.uiuc.edu/pipermail/llvm-commits/Week-of-Mon-20071105/055 414.html It had a link to a Bill Wendling, who evidently is related to code in this link. This link has lots of C/C++ code for providing "accessibility support for the combo box". I can clearly see relationship from the code to "jobject" handles, which is a key ingredient to JAB's various functions. If you can please, help me bridge between JAB or something, to get the text from "combo box", "push button" and other various control. Here are questions I think that if you could please help me answer, would bridge this gap: Is there a way, that one can take a "jobject" handle that JAB gets for a "combo box" object and some how use it with your AccessibleAWTChoice class in your code, to then let one use the AccessibleAWTChoice's member function called "getItem" to get the text? If not, do you know of anyway one can use JAB or something in a C/C++ windows application, to get the text from "combo box", "push button", and other controls from an external running Java Applet? Thank you for your time, John Brumbelow
