WinAPI Suite 2.2.5 Description

"WinAPI Suite is a set of utilities to call MS-Windows API ."


Edit by : WinAPI Suite is a set of utilities to call MS-Windows API from a command line or a Batch file. The following utilities currently included:

FindWindow - finds window handle that satisfy miscelaneous search criteria;
SendMessage - sends or posts message to the window, with specified parameters;
DropFiles.exe - emulates drag and drop operation for specified window;
Sleep - yields processor time (pauses) for specified number of milliseconds;

(NOTE: the last one, Sleep, is actually a freeware, you don't need to buy WinAPI Suite, if all you need is Sleep :-)

As most MS-Windows programmers know, much of the low-level work in Windows performed by sending messages to miscelaneous code objects, called (surprise!) windows. An ability to send messages from a batch file to a selected window, can provide you with means of automating a third party application, that otherwise would require user interaction with mouse and keyboard.

The simplest example would be terminating application. Most of the application would respond to WM_QUIT or WM_CLOSE message.
But there's much more to it! Almost any action that can be performed with keyboard and mouse, can also be programmed as a sequence of SendMessage calls.

FindWindow.exe has a /SET option, that would cause to output search result in a form:
SET HWND=0x1C0
This could be redirected (piped) to another batch file, which in turn can be called to set %HWND% variable and use it as a parameter to subsequent calls to SendMessage.exe. you can free download WinAPI Suite 2.2.5 now.
