Struct Element 

pub struct Element { /* private fields */ }

A live element with lazy navigation via a provider reference.

Element dereferences to ElementData, so all properties (role, name, value, states, etc.) are accessible via field access. Navigation methods (parent(), children()) call the provider on demand.

Elements are cheap to clone (they share the provider via Arc).

Implementations

impl Element

pub fn new(data: ElementData, provider: Arc<dyn Provider>) -> Self

Create an Element from raw data and a provider reference.

pub fn data(&self) -> &ElementData

Get the underlying ElementData.

pub fn provider(&self) -> &Arc<dyn Provider>

Get the provider reference.

pub fn children(&self) -> Result<Vec<Element>>

Get direct children of this element.

Each call queries the provider — results are not cached.

pub fn parent(&self) -> Result<Option<Element>>

Get the parent element, if any (root-level elements have no parent).

Each call queries the provider — results are not cached.

pub fn pid(&self) -> Option<u32>

Get the process ID from the element data.
