viewing Java controls

[flynny1st]

Hi I have a compiled java program and i want to grab a hold of a text field in this program. However SPY++ shows this as being one big control and i cannot break it down to the contorl i want to use.

Is there a spy++ program available that can read javascript controls i can use to view this information?

That's because it is one big control. AFAIK, there is no easy way to grab the data that you want. The JRE is responsible for handling all drawing, message, etc., that are sent to and from the various Java widgets.

I see, so would there be any viable way of breaking down this control?, do you think the Java Access Bridge would be useful here?

Don't know. I've never worked with Java Access Bridge. It certainly sounds like it might be what you're looking for.
