key (former press_key_by_code before version 4.9.21)

key($code); - this function is used to emulate pressing a key with the specified code at the hardware level, relative to the current window (input focus is passed to the current window when calling this function)

the input Function accepts parameters:

  • $code – code of the pressed key.

    After testing, the function returns the result of its work to the script :
  • true – emulation was done
  • false – emulation was not successful

    PHP example: 

    <?php $xhe_host = "127.0.0.1:7010";
 
//connect the object to control the emulator, if not already connected
if(!isset($path))
   $path = "../../../Templates/xweb_human_emulator.php";
require($path);
 
//Start
echo "<hr> <font color = blue> windowinterface->".basename(__FILE__)."</font> <hr>";
 
//1
echo "1.Let's add text to the navigation:";
$navigate = $window->get_by_text("XWeb", false)->get_child_by_number(0)->get_child_by_class("XTPToolBar")->get_child_by_class("RichEdit");
echo $navigate->input("ya.ru")."<br>"; sleep(1);
echo $navigate->key(13)."<br>"; sleep(1);
 
//end
echo "<hr> <br>";
 
//Quit
$app->quit();
?>

sleep(1)
echo(navigate.key(13), "<br>")
sleep(1)
 
# end
