I'm currently trying to make a debugging tool which will sit on top of a proprietary application (which interfaces over BLE with hardware).
Inside of this application (written in QT) there is a text box which has the stream of logging information coming from the hardware, and I want to make an application which will monitor that text box and process the data being logged.
I cracked open Spy++ and found the handles of the window I needed, however, it only displayed as "QWidget" and WM_GETTEXT wasn't pulling any data out. These two links also mention that QT widgets can't be read by the standard Win32 API (which feels strange to me, as I was sure everything needed to pass through the Windows GUI layer): https://forum.qt.io/topic/36867/accessing-qtextedit-from-another-program/9 https://forum.qt.io/topic/19256/how-get-handle-of-qwidget-child-with-vb-net/9
I'm open to any and all options! I'm language-agnostic on this one. How can I read out the QTextEdit logging data?
