How to tracking all windows open event?

Question

I have a pb 11.5 app. I want to track when user open any window. Firstly, use need to open login window and verified by username and password. After that, open a main frame window with menu.  Then user will open any window for the app. I want to track when a user open a window.
Simple solution is: in open event script for each window add a code to track who and when open this window. This need too many code as the app has more 400 window object.
Also thinking about a solution, like a global service, when open any window, log this open event. but not sure how to do it. W
What's the best solution with minimum code for this issue?

Answer 1

You can create a new ancestor for all the windows with the code you want. Any window that is inherited from window needs to be edited to inherit from your new ancestor. That's the simplest way to do it.
If you edit source on windows inherited from window they look like this:
forward
global type w_child_gen from window
end type
end forward
shared variables
end variables
global type w_child_gen from window
Change the work window to w_newancestor or whatever you called it. That's the simplest solution with minimal code changes.
To find these windows you can use pbsearch to look for "from window"
