QQ截图时窗口自动识别的原理（WindowFromPoint, ChildWindowFromPoint, ChildWindowFromPointEx,RealChildWindowFromPoin

新版的QQ在截图时加入了窗口自动识别的功能，能根据鼠标的位置自动画出下面窗口的轮廓。今天有人在论坛上问起这个问题，下面我们来探讨这个功能的实现原理。

首先我们要明白截图软件的基本原理，截图时实际上是新建了一个全屏窗口，然后将当前桌面的截图画在上面，大部分截图软件，包括QQ都是这么做的。根据鼠标位置获取下层窗口，有好几个类似的API可以用(WindowFromPoint, ChildWindowFromPoint, ChildWindowFromPointEx,RealChildWindowFromPoint)。

这里我们重点关注ChildWindowFromPointEx，因为我们知道截图时有个全屏窗口覆盖在上面，通过鼠标位置去取得窗口，肯定首先取到的是这个全屏窗口，所以我们要把这个窗口过滤掉，而只有ChildWindowFromPointEx这个API有窗口过滤功能。

HWND ChildWindowFromPointEx(      

    HWND hwndParent,     POINT pt,     UINT uFlags );

Parameters

hwndParent[in] Handle to the parent window.pt[in] Specifies a POINT structure that defines the client coordinates (relative to hwndParent) of the point to be checked.uFlags[in] Specifies which child windows to skip. This parameter can be one or more of the following values.
CWP_ALLDoes not skip any child windowsCWP_SKIPINVISIBLESkips invisible child windowsCWP_SKIPDISABLEDSkips disabled child windowsCWP_SKIPTRANSPARENTSkips transparent child windows

所以我们有理由相信QQ的全屏窗口用了WS_EX_LAYERED属性，然后QQ通过调用ChildWindowFromPointEx(hWndDesktop,ptCursor, CWP_SKIPINVISIBLE|CWP_SKIPTRANSPARENT), 这样就可以过滤掉不可见的和Layered窗口，然后通过递归调用该API，就可以获取里面的子窗口了。

为了验证我们猜想，怎么可以自己建立一个Layered Window，然后用QQ截图，可以看到QQ是无法识别该窗口的。

另外我们可以在启动QQ截图后，通过Windows键激活任务栏，然后改变通过任务栏最小化或是关闭某个包含在截图内的窗口，再继续截图就会发现QQ没法识别了。这也说明了QQ截图是实时通过ChildWindowFromPointEx来获取下层窗口的。这也算是QQ截图的一个Bug。

很多截图软件却没有上述问题，我想他们应该是在开始截图时保存了桌面上所有窗口的层次关系和所在区域，后面用的都是当时保存的信息来识别的，这样即使后面下面的窗口变化了，识别也不会受到影响。

另外，有些截图软件能够识别到比窗口粒度更小的元素，比如Toolbar控件上的每个Item，他们用的应该是MSAA(Microsoft Active Accessibility),标准控件一般都支持该接口。

看到有些人对通过枚举方式识别窗口的代码感兴趣 ， 下面是我的代码:

template<typename T> std::vector<CSCWinInfo*> CSCWinSpy<T>::m_arSnapshot;

这样使用， 在截图开始时保存所有桌面窗口层次:

CSCWinSpy<CSCWinFilter>::GetInstance()->SnapshotAllWinRect();

然后就可以这样查询某个位置的最上层窗口了:

CRect rtSelect = CSCWinSpy<CSCWinFilter>::GetInstance()->GetWinRectByPoint(pt, FALSE);
