Crap. The demo app uses some propritary IDE which defines the UI in an XML file. 🤮

I can't even get a demo with a privacy email address like sharklasers.com

I guess I can just manually dig through the code to try to match up XML elements with CPP classes, but I have a feeling this is going nowhere fast!

Well, I emailed the author. They have not touched the repo in 5 years, but hopefully they still have access to that email address and will be willing to respond.

In the meantime... once more into the fray

Derp. Turns out the company trying to get my personal info was just going to let me download an open source program with some of their extras bundled with it. Haha, fuck no.

I got the #FOSS version and it compiled the demo just fine and it works acceptably well with a #ScreenReader.

Now to figure out how their code works and determine how it's different from mine. I feel like I have a chance at being able to complete this task someday!

Another tiny step in the right direction: I'm seeing requests to my code come through with the Role AccessibleText, but only when I have the screen reader turned on. And this is being requested of the items in the tree, not the tree itself.

This is good news. The punchline is that it was not returning the correct value for AccessibleText previously and now it is.

The screen reader still isn't reading off the entries of the selected item, but I know I fixed one problem with the code.
