fix FocusCaret to get caret in Chrome #593

Closed PzaThief closed 11 months ago

PzaThief commented 11 months ago

To solve #375 I added a logic to find caret position from Chrome via oleacc.dll. Now Ditto can find caret from more variety application like VS, VS Code, etc. But like as the reference that @u-Sir gave, It is not cover UWP applications yet. So, this is just first solution of the issue (because i think Chrome is more important than any others) and I will decide whether to add a logic to support UWP apps after.

Seems to use UIAutomation that is first time to use for both of Ditto and me. Just it. But it is in Windows SDK, already Ditto has, so there is nothing special to do something else(perhaps). Please understand that I am slacking off for a while hahaha

ok to call LoadLibrary over and over, mostly looks like yes, https://stackoverflow.com/questions/3497516/does-loadlibrary-create-distinct-instances but i've always loaded it up front and did GetProcAddress up front.
