Code:

local windows={}
local w=getWindow(getForegroundWindow(),GW_HWNDFIRST);
local i=0
local pid=getOpenedProcessID()

while (w~=0) and (i<10000) do
if getWindowProcessID(w)==pid then
windows[#windows+1]=w
end

w=getWindow(w,GW_HWNDNEXT);
i=i+1
end

--windows contains a windowlist of the target process

--in next CE version you can do executeCodeLocalEx which is more efficient, but for now use executeCodeEx which runs inside the target

local i
local rectaddress=allocateMemory(16)
local addr=getAddress("GetWindowRect")

for i=1,#windows do
local r=executeCodeEx(0,nil,addr,{type=0,value=windows[i]},{type=0,value=rectaddress})
if (r~=nil) and (r~=0) then
local left=readInteger(rectaddress)
local top=readInteger(rectaddress+4)
local right=readInteger(rectaddress+8)
local bottom=readInteger(rectaddress+12)

local s=string.format("%s is located at %d,%d with a width of %d and height of %d", getWindowCaption(windows[i]), left,top,right-left,bottom-top)
print(s)
end
end

deAlloc(rectaddress)
