Retrieves the classes from a window.
WinGetClassList ( "title" [, "text"] )
| title | The title/hWnd/class of the window to get the classes. See Title special definition. |
| text | [optional] The text of the window to get the classes. Default is an empty string. See Text special definition. |
| Success: | a string containing the window classes read. |
| Failure: | "" and sets the @error flag to non-zero if the criteria does not match a window. |
Class names are linefeed (@LF) separated. WinGetClassList() works on both minimized and hidden windows. Up to 64KB of text can be retrieved. If multiple windows match the criteria, the classes are read from the most recently active window.
