ISO and IEC technical committees collaborate in fields of mutual interest. Other international organizations, governmental and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO and
24、 IEC, also take part in the work. In the field of information technology, ISO and IEC have established a joint technical committee, ISO/IEC JTC 1. The procedures used to develop this document and those intended for its further maintenance are described in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 1. In particula
25、r the different approval criteria needed for the different types of document should be noted.

31、6(E) PD ISO/IEC TR 13066-2:2016ISO/IEC TR 13066-2:2016(E) Introduction Individuals with a wide range of functional disabilities, impairments, and difficulties require specific technology to enable computers and software to be accessible to them. This part of ISO/IEC 13066 provides information about
32、the Microsoft Windows Automation Frameworks, including Microsoft Active Accessibility, User Interface (UI) Automation, and the common interfaces of these accessibility frameworks including the IAccessibleEx interface specification. The intent of this part of ISO/IEC 13066 is to provide information a
33、nd application programming interfaces (APIs) needed to use these frameworks. A primary goal of this part of ISO/IEC 13066 is to ensure that accessible software applications can be written in such a way that they are fully compatible with the Microsoft Accessibility APIs available on the Microsoft Wi
34、ndows operating system. vi ISO/IEC 2016 All rights reserved PD ISO/IEC TR 13066-2:2016Information technology Interoperability with assistive technology (AT) Part 2: Windows accessibility application programming interface (API) 1 Scope This part of ISO/IEC 13066 specifies services provided in the Mic
35、rosoft Windows platform to enable assistive technologies (AT) to interact with other software. One goal of this part of ISO/IEC 13066 is to define a set of application programming interfaces (APIs) for allowing software applications to enable accessible technologies on the Microsoft Windows platform
36、. Another goal of this part of ISO/IEC 13066 is to facilitate extensibility and interoperability by enabling implementations by multiple vendors on multiple platforms. This part of ISO/IEC 13066 is applicable to the broad range of ergonomics and how ergonomics apply to human interaction with softwar
37、e systems. 2 T erms an d definiti ons For the purposes of this document, the following terms and definitions apply. 2.1 application programming interface API standard set of documented and supported routines that expose operating system programming interfaces and services to applications Note 1 to e
38、ntry: An API is usually a source code interface that an operating system, library, or service provides to support requests made by computer programs. EXAMPLE Examples of operating system services that are exposed by APIs include administration and management, diagnostics, graphics and multimedia, ne
39、tworking, security, system services, user interfaces, and accessibility. 2.2 accessibility degree to which a computer system is easy to use by all people, including those with disabilities 2.3 accessible object part of user interface object that is accessible by Microsoft Active Accessibility Note 1
40、 to entry: An accessible object is represented by an IAccessible interface and a ChildId identifier 2.4 Accessible Rich Internet Applications ARIA accessibility framework from W3C that exposes web content to assistive technologies such as screen readers and speech commanding programs TECHNICAL REPOR

42、ology can be manifested through both hardware and software. 2.6 Accessibility Toolkit Linux Accessibility Toolkit ATK programming support accessibility features in their applications 2.7 automation replacement of manual operations by computerized methods Note 1 to entry: With respect to this part of
43、 ISO/IEC 13066, automation is a way to manipulate an applications user interface from outside the application. 2.8 automation element object or element that is accessible by the UI Automation object model Note 1 to entry: Similar to accessible objects in Microsoft Active Accessibility, an automation
44、 element in UI Automation represents a piece or a part of the user interface, such as button, window, or desktop. 2.9 Audio Video Interleaved AVI format that enables both audio and video data in a file container 2.10 C# programming language designed for building applications that run on the .NET Fra
45、mework Note 1 to entry: C#, which is an evolution of C and C+, is type safe and object-oriented. Note 2 to entry: Because it is compiled as managed code, it benefits from the services of the common language runtime, such as language interoperability, security, and garbage collection. 2.11 callback f
46、unction function or procedure that third party or client code supplies to a component, often by passing a function pointer through the components API Note 1 to entry: The component may then call this code at specific times. This technique is often used by components to signal client code that some e
47、vent has taken place, or to request client code to perform some specific task. 2.12 clients component that uses the services of another component Note 1 to entry: In this part of ISO/IEC 13066, client refers more specifically to a component that uses the services of Microsoft Active Accessibility or
48、 UI Automation, or both, to access, identify, or manipulate the user interface (UI) elements of an application 2 ISO/IEC 2016 All rights reserved PD ISO/IEC TR 13066-2:20162.13 Common Language Runtime CLR Microsofts commercial implementation of the Common Language Infrastructure (CLI) specification
49、Note 1 to entry: The CLI provides a specification for executable code and the execution environment in which it runs Note 2 to entry: At the centre of the CLI are a unified type system, a virtual execution system, and a specification for multiple programming languages to share the type system and compile into a common intermediate language. 2.14 Component Object Model COM object-oriented programming model that defines how objects interact within a single process or between processes Note 1 to entry: In COM,
