Notes
- If you call this function on the
DesktopWin class,
Silk Test Classic raises an exception.
- Backward compatibility: In previous releases,
GetParent returned a window tag instead of an object-oriented identifier. Use the OPT_REL1_CLASS_LIBRARY option to specify use of the pre-Release 2 version of this method.
