31、 require specific technology to enable computers and software to be accessible to them. This part of ISO/IEC 13066 provides information about the Microsoft Windows Automation Frameworks, including Microsoft Active Accessibility, User Interface (UI) Automation, and the common interfaces of these acce

32、ssibility frameworks including the IAccessibleEx interface specification.The intent of this part of ISO/IEC 13066 is to provide information and 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

33、 applications can be written in such a way that they are fully compatible with the Microsoft Accessibility APIs available on the Microsoft Windows operating system.vi ISO/IEC 2016 All rights reservedPD ISO/IEC TR 13066-2:2016Information technology Interoperability with assistive technology (AT) Part

34、 2: Windows accessibility application programming interface (API)1 ScopeThis part of ISO/IEC 13066 specifies services provided in the Microsoft 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 applica

35、tion programming interfaces (APIs) for allowing software applications to enable accessible technologies on the Microsoft Windows platform. Another goal of this part of ISO/IEC 13066 is to facilitate extensibility and interoperability by enabling implementations by multiple vendors on multiple platfo

36、rms.This part of ISO/IEC 13066 is applicable to the broad range of ergonomics and how ergonomics apply to human interaction with software systems.2 Terms and definitionsFor the purposes of this document, the following terms and definitions apply.2.1application programming interfaceAPIstandard set of

37、 documented and supported routines that expose operating system programming interfaces and services to applicationsNote 1 to entry: 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 opera

38、ting system services that are exposed by APIs include administration and management, diagnostics, graphics and multimedia, networking, security, system services, user interfaces, and accessibility.2.2accessibilitydegree to which a computer system is easy to use by all people, including those with di

42、lacement of manual operations by computerized methodsNote 1 to entry: With respect to this part of ISO/IEC 13066, automation is a way to manipulate an applications user interface from outside the application.2.8automation elementobject or element that is accessible by the UI Automation object modelN

43、ote 1 to entry: Similar to accessible objects in Microsoft Active Accessibility, an automation element in UI Automation represents a piece or a part of the user interface, such as button, window, or desktop.2.9Audio Video InterleavedAVIformat that enables both audio and video data in a file containe

44、r2.10C#programming language designed for building applications that run on the .NET FrameworkNote 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,

45、 such as language interoperability, security, and garbage collection.2.11callback functionfunction or procedure that third party or client code supplies to a component, often by passing a function pointer through the components APINote 1 to entry: The component may then call this code at specific ti

46、mes. This technique is often used by components to signal client code that some event has taken place, or to request client code to perform some specific task.2.12clientscomponent that uses the services of another componentNote 1 to entry: In this part of ISO/IEC 13066, client refers more specifical

47、ly to a component that uses the services of Microsoft Active Accessibility or UI Automation, or both, to access, identify, or manipulate the user interface (UI) elements of an application2 ISO/IEC 2016 All rights reservedPD ISO/IEC TR 13066-2:20162.13Common Language RuntimeCLRMicrosofts commercial i

48、mplementation of the Common Language Infrastructure (CLI) specificationNote 1 to entry: The CLI provides a specification for executable code and the execution environment in which it runsNote 2 to entry: At the centre of the CLI are a unified type system, a virtual execution system, and a specificat

49、ion for multiple programming languages to share the type system and compile into a common intermediate language.2.14Component Object ModelCOMobject-oriented programming model that defines how objects interact within a single process or between processesNote 1 to entry: In COM, clients have access to an object through interfaces implemented on the object.2.15content viewsubset of the control view of the UI Automation treeNote 1 to entry: The content view contains UI items that convey the actual information in a user in
