PeekPenInput
- 0      
Retrieves information about a specified pen packet in the pen input queue. For
a definition of pen packet, see the description of 
SetPenHook.
int PeekPenInput( HPCM hpcm, UINT idEvent, LPPOINT lppt, LPVOID lpvOem, UINT fuOemFlags )
Parameters
hpcm
Handle to a pen collection. This is the return value from 
StartPenInput.
idEvent
The identifier of the packet to be retrieved. The 
idEvent is the low-order word of the value returned from the Windows 
GetMessageExtraInfo function when processing a WM_LBUTTONDOWN message.
lppt
Far pointer to a 
POINT structure. 
PeekPenInput copies the point corresponding to 
idEvent into the buffer pointed to by 
lppt.
lpvOem
The address of a buffer of OEM data in the packet. This parameter can be NULL
if no OEM data is required.
fuOemFlags
Flags specifying which OEM data to retrieve. If this parameter is NULL, all of
the OEM data provided by the tablet is returned in the order specified by the 
rgoempeninfo array in 
PENINFO.
These flags have an implicit order. For example, if pressure and barrel
rotation are specified in that order, 
cPntMax pairs of these data are returned in the same order: [pressure, rotation],
[pressure, rotation], and so on. (
cPntMax is the number of 
POINT structures specified in 
GetPenInput.)
| Constant 
 | Description 
 | 
| PHW_PRESSURE 
 | Retrieve pressure data. 
 | 
| PHW_HEIGHT 
 | Retrieve height data. 
 | 
| PHW_ANGLEXY 
 | Retrieve data pertaining to the x- and y-coordinates. 
 | 
| PHW_ANGLEZ 
 | Retrieve data pertaining to the z-coordinates. 
 | 
| PHW_BARRELROTATION 
 | Retrieve barrel-rotation data. 
 | 
| PHW_OEMSPECIFIC 
 | Retrieve OEM-specific data. 
 | 
| PHW_PDK 
 | Retrieve PDK_ data. 
 | 
  
Return Value
Returns PCMR_OK if successful; otherwise, the return value can be one of the
following:
| Constant 
 | Description 
 | 
| PCMR_INVALIDCOLLECTION 
 | The hpcm handle is invalid because the calling application did not start input with StartPenInput. 
 | 
| PCMR_INVALID_PACKETID 
 | idEvent is invalid. 
 | 
  
Comments
Unlike 
GetPenInput, this function does not remove data from the pen input queue. It only returns
information about the packet specified by 
idEvent.
Whereas 
lppt points into the pen input queue, 
lpvOem does not. If 
lpvOem is not NULL, it points to a buffer provided by the caller into which the OEM
data are copied from the pen input queue.
The buffer that 
lpvOem points to must be large enough to hold the requested OEM data copied from the
packet. The size of each packet is the width specified in the 
cbOemData member of the 
PENINFO structure, plus sizeof( UINT ) if PDK_ values are required.
