使用 UI 自動化中的快取

注意

本文件適用對象為 .NET Framework 開發人員,其想要使用 System.Windows.Automation 命名空間中定義的受控 UI 自動化類別。 如需 UI 自動化的最新資訊,請參閱 Windows 自動化 API:UI 自動化

本節說明如何實作 AutomationElement 屬性和控制項模式的快取。

啟動快取要求

  1. 建立 CacheRequest

  2. 使用 Add指定要快取的屬性和模式。

  3. 設定 TreeScope 屬性,以指定快取的範圍。

  4. 設定 TreeFilter 屬性,以指定樹狀子目錄的檢視。

  5. 如果要提高效率而不擷取物件的完整參考,可以將 AutomationElementMode 屬性設為 None 。 (如此將無法從這些物件擷取目前值。)

  6. using 區塊內使用 Activate (在 Microsoft Visual Basic .NET 中為 Using) 來啟動要求。

在取得 AutomationElement 物件或訂閱事件之後,使用 Pop (若使用 Push ) 或處置 Activate所建立的物件,以停用要求。 (在 using 區塊中使用 Activate (Microsoft Visual Basic .NET 中為 Using)。

快取 AutomationElement 屬性

  1. CacheRequest 在作用中時,使用 AutomationElementFindFirst 取得 FindAll物件;或取得 AutomationElement 做為 CacheRequest 作用中時註冊之事件的來源。 (您也可以將 CacheRequest 傳遞至 GetUpdatedCache 或其中一個 TreeWalker 方法,以此方式建立快取。)

  2. 使用 GetCachedPropertyValue ,或從 CachedAutomationElement屬性擷取屬性。

取得快取的模式及其屬性

  1. CacheRequest 在作用中時,使用 AutomationElementFindFirst 取得 FindAll物件;或取得 AutomationElement 做為 CacheRequest 作用中時註冊之事件的來源。 (您也可以將 CacheRequest 傳遞至 GetUpdatedCache 或其中一個 TreeWalker 方法,以此方式建立快取。)

  2. 使用 GetCachedPatternTryGetCachedPattern 擷取快取的模式。

  3. 從控制項模式的 Cached 屬性擷取屬性值。
