Description
Reuseapp variable for one process owned different top level windows.
Oneapp may be used for all windows owned by one process. For instance:
frompywinauto.applicationimportApplicationapp=Application().Start(cmd_line=u'"C:\\Windows\\system32\\notepad.exe" ')notepad=app.Notepadnotepad.Wait('ready')menu_item=notepad.MenuItem(u'&Help->&About Notepad')menu_item.Click()window=app.Dialogwindow.Wait('ready')button=window.OKbutton.Click()app.Kill_()
Now the same actions code looks:
from pywinauto.application import Applicationapp = Application().Start(cmd_line=u'"C:\\Windows\\system32\\notepad.exe" ')notepad = app.Notepadnotepad.Wait('ready')menu_item = notepad.MenuItem(u'&Help->&About Notepad')menu_item.Click()app2 = Application().Start(cmd_line=u'"C:\\Windows\\system32\\notepad.exe" ')window = app2.Dialogwindow.Wait('ready')button = window.OKbutton.Click()button.Click()app2.Kill_()app.Kill_()Restarting the same application is probably not the thing you expect.
