How to convert a list of widgets to SWTBot's wrapper objects? [message #641938]

Hi all,

I can get lists of widgets out by creating an SWTBot object and calling the "widgets" method on it.

Problem is that to actually do useful stuff with them I need the equivalent instances of subclasses of AbstractSWTBot , i.e. if it's a MenuItem I want to make an SWTBotMenu, if it's a TreeItem I need an SWTBotTreeItem etc.

Do I need to iterate through and write a special case for every widget type? Or is there some method in SWTBot that will do this for me, that I've missed?

Regards,
Geoff Bache

There's nothing in the swtbot that does this automagically.
