ValuePattern是UI Automation中最常见的Pattern之一,Winform和WPF的TextBox控件都支持ValuePattern。
ValuePattern的一个重要的方法是SetValue,在允许调用 SetValue 之前,控件应将其 IsEnabledProperty 设置为 true 并将其 IsReadOnlyProperty 设置为 false。
通过ValuePattern的Current属性可以获得控件的value和IsReadOnly属性。
实现 Value 控件模式时,请注意以下准则和约定:
如果任何项的值是可编辑的,则诸如 ListItem 和 TreeItem 等控件必须支持 ValuePattern,而不管控件的当前编辑模式如何。如果子项是可编辑的,则父控件还必须支持 ValuePattern。
下面的例子是通过ValuePattern来给TextBox设置和获取值:
Code
1using System;
2using System.Text;
3using System.Diagnostics;
4using System.Threading;
5using System.Windows.Automation;

10 {
11 static void Main(string[] args)
12 {
13 Process process = Process.Start(@"F:\CSharpDotNet\AutomationTest\ATP\WpfApp\bin\Debug\WpfApp.exe");
14 int processId = process.Id;
15 AutomationElement element = FindElementById(processId, "textBox1");
16 ValuePattern currentPattern = GetValuePattern(element);
17 Console.WriteLine("Is read only:'{0}', TextBox text is:'{1}'", currentPattern.Current.IsReadOnly, currentPattern.Current.Value);
18 currentPattern.SetValue("KadenKang");
19 Console.WriteLine("After using the SetValue, the TextBox value is '{0}'", currentPattern.Current.Value);

下面的代码是xaml设计:
Code
1<Window x:Class="WpfApp.Window1"
2 xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml/presentation"

5 <Grid>
6 <TextBox Height="23" Margin="50,20,160,0" Name="textBox1" VerticalAlignment="Top" MaxLength="5">textBox text</TextBox>
7 </Grid>
