I have obtained the handle of a window I want to target, with win32gui library in Python
How do I close the window?
I have the following code, the second line did what I intended to do
but the last line seems to be wrong.
handle = win32gui.FindWindow(None, r'Notepad++')
win32gui.SetForegroundWindow(handle)
win32gui.CloseWindow(handle)
I also want to know if I just want to close the window, is the second line necessary?
Besides that, I notice a minor thing, and I am curious about it:
If I try
win32gui.CloseWindow(handle)
in Python shell, I get something like:
2500276L
but if I try
handle = win32gui.CloseWindow(handle)
print handle
then I get
2500276
does the 'L' in the end make any difference?
Thanks for your attention!!
