0.3.5 Moved to Metaclass control wrapping

25-May-2006

  • Moved to a metaclass implementation of control finding. This removes some cyclic importing that had to be worked around and other then metaclass magic makes the code a bit simpler.

  • Some of the sample files would not run - so I updated them so they would (Thanks to Stefaan Himpe for pointing this out)

  • Disabled saving application data (it was still being saved in Application.RecordMatch() even if the rest of the application data code is disabled. This was causing what appeared to be a memory leak where pywinauto would keep grabbing more and more memory (especially for controls that contain a lot of information). Thanks to Frank Martinez for leading me to this).

  • Added ListViewWrapper.GetItemRect() to enable retrieving the rectangle for a particular item in the listview.

  • Removed references to _ctrl() method within pywinauto as it was raising a DeprecationWarning internally even if the user was not using it.
