I have an EditControl that, when the text changes, checks whether it's focused (there is a secondary EditControl that does exactly the same). I searched the forums and found the GetFocus function via SetFocus, but the function doesn't seem to have any parameters. What I need to do is something like:

code:

---

if(Interop.Call('user32','GetFocus',EdtBox.Handle)){
//do stuff
}

---

Is there some way to do this?

GetFocus() returns the handle of the currently focused control, so you need to compare that return value to the handle of the control you want to react upon.

js code:

---

// Get the handle of the focused control
var hFocused = Interop.Call('user32', 'GetFocus');
// Check if it's our edit control
if( hFocused === PlusWnd.GetControlHandle('MyEditControl') ) {
    // Do stuff
}

---

Or the short version:

js code:

---

// Check whether our edit control has focus
if( Interop.Call('user32', 'GetFocus') === PlusWnd.GetControlHandle('MyEditControl') ) {
    // Do stuff
}

Thanks a lot, it seems to be working perfectly now

I just wasn't sure if it'd return what I wanted, from what the MSDN article said it seemed like it included entire windows as well.
