monitoring the taskbar in windows
Hi friends
Is there a bulit in class that can directly control the open aplications in windows?.
i,e. it can find out which programs are open and minimise and maximise them, or even close them.
i am developing a java program that controls other programs in windows, but to do this i need 2 things
1. a way to control the mouse and keyboard, i have found the class ROBOT and this could control the windows as neccisary because ROBOT directly controls the mouse and keyboard strokes.
2. i need a way to get information back from the other open programs, i was thinking of print screen but that is a real mission,.. it would be ideal to read the screen shot directly from the memory without having to maximise or minimise the window.
Does Such A Class Exist?!?
Thanx
