Is there a way to programmatically locate all Windows within a given application?

Is it possible to programmatically enumerate all of the android.view.Windows, or decor views within an application?

Dialogs for example will both open in a new Window, separate from the main Activity window. I can locate them via Dialog.getWindow() but I'm not sure how I would do this with a built-in components such as the activity menu popup.

Is there any way, from an Application, Context, or the WindowManager, or something else, to enumerate the Windows associated with my app?

I can see all of my application's windows with adb dumpsys window, but I'm looking for a way to do this within my application without requiring root.

Solution

I've found a way to do it via reflection on the @hidden WindowManagerGlobal. At least so far I know this works for android-18.

private void logRootViews() {
    try {
        Class wmgClass = Class.forName("android.view.WindowManagerGlobal");                        
        Object wmgInstnace = wmgClass.getMethod("getInstance").invoke(null, (Object[])null);

        Method getViewRootNames = wmgClass.getMethod("getViewRootNames"); 
        Method getRootView = wmgClass.getMethod("getRootView", String.class);
        String[] rootViewNames = (String[])getViewRootNames.invoke(wmgInstnace, (Object[])null);

        for(String viewName : rootViewNames) {
            View rootView = (View)getRootView.invoke(wmgInstnace, viewName);
            Log.i(TAG, "Found root view: " + viewName + ": " + rootView);
        }
    } catch (Exception e) {
        e.printStackTrace();
    }
}

Output:

Found root view: com.example.paintsample/com.example.paintsample.PaintSample/android.view.ViewRootImpl@41deeff0: com.android.internal.policy.impl.PhoneWindow$DecorView{41dcc278 V.E..... R....... 0,0-768,1184}

Found root view: PopupWindow:42887380/android.view.ViewRootImpl@42891820: android.widget.PopupWindow$PopupViewContainer{42891450 V.E..... ........ 0,0-424,618}

Bounty is still up for grabs of course for anyone who can find a better way :)
