I am trying to add Accessibility API to my Carbon application to get
information from other running applications (i.e., to get other
applications' windows attributes, etc). Initially I installed event
handler
(with ApplicationEventTarget I registered kEventClassAccessibilty class
along with all Accessibility events) to listen for any notifications
from
other Accessibility aware applications. With Access for assistive
devices
enabled, my application still doesn't get notification from other apps
(even
Universal Acess panel). I understand any Cocoa apps under OS X 10.2
should
provide default accessibility. I wonder if Accessibility API is not
ready
yet for Carbon apps. By the way, I am using OS X 10.2.6 on PowerPC G4.
The Accessibility API is implemented for Carbon. However, you won't
necessarily receive these events on the application target; it depends
on what other apps are requesting. Do you have an accessibility client
app (one that uses the Accessibility API to inspect other apps) that
you're using to test your own accessibility handlers?
