I downloaded the latest dev build (1.5.1.1037) and tried to run a test that was working before – it's now failing to simply attach to a window by title.

I tried attach in irb with the same result.
ie=IE.attach(:title, /SMART/)
where the window title is SMART 2.4

irb(main):003:0> ie=IE.attach(:title, /SMART/)
Watir::Exception::NoMatchingWindowFoundException: Unable to locate a window with
title of (?-mix:SMART)

I tried to run the unittests for attach and they also fail with the same type of errors (only a couple examples here):

1) Error:

I reverted back to my previous watir version (1.4.1) and attach seems to work fine – is this working for anyone else?

Bill,

Thank you for the report.

This works fine for me. I just ran the window_tests.rb (which includes all the attach tests) in 1.5.1.1037 and everything passed.

There have been a lot of changes in this code in 1.5 and this code is very sensitive to environment.

What version of Windows and Ruby are you using?

Have other people seen problems with IE.attach in 1.5?

Bret

I'm using Windows XP - SP2 – more precisely from About Windows Version 5.1 (Build 2600.xpsp_sp2_gdr.050301-1519 : Service Pack 2)

and

Ruby version: 1.8.2 (I was once under the impression that this was required for watir and haven't had the need to upgrade)

Note:
I had not installed Watir from a gem, obviously when I did it put it in the gems directories.
I had watir files in the C:\ruby\lib\ruby\site_ruby\1.8 directory so I moved the watir.rb and watir folder from here to another location out of my path to make sure it called the right watir files – did I miss anything here by chance?
The error messages refer to watir 1.5 so it seems it's using the correct version.

Just wondering, as I said I haven't done this before.
