While as mentioned previously the article didn't really help, I just 
went ahead and tried to exercise the UITest setup for accessing the 
accessibility tree.

And a little unexpectedly, I there could access all UI elements through 
the accessibility interfaces just as I was trying to in C++.  Does 
anybody know why this works there, and not in my CppUnit tests? 
Anything I should set up differently, await, or else?

Attached is a small UITest that shows there is everything, and 
especially all menu items.  Now my goal is to get comparable results in 
CppUnit.

Thanks in advance,
Colomban
