KeyboardProc
The KeyboardProc hook procedure is an application-defined or library-defined callback function
the system calls whenever an application calls the GetMessage or PeekMessage function and there is a keyboard message (WM_KEYUP or WM_KEYDOWN) to be processed.
LRESULT CALLBACK KeyboardProc(
int code,
| // hook code
| WPARAM wParam,
| // virtual-key code
| LPARAM lParam
| // keystroke-message information
| );
|
|
Parameters
code
Specifies a code the hook procedure uses to determine how to process the
message. This parameter can be one of the following values:
Value
| Meaning
| HC_ACTION
| The wParam and lParam parameters contain information about a keystroke message.
| HC_NOREMOVE
| The wParam and lParam parameters contain information about a keystroke message, and the keystroke
message has not been removed from the message queue. (An application called the PeekMessage function, specifying the PM_NOREMOVE flag.)
|
If code is less than zero, the hook procedure must pass the message to the CallNextHookEx function without further processing and should return the value returned by CallNextHookEx.
wParam
Specifies the virtual-key code of the key that generated the keystroke
message.
lParam
Specifies the repeat count, scan code, extended-key flag, context code,
previous key-state flag, and transition-state flag. This parameter can be a
combination of the following values:
Value
| Description
| 0 15
| Specifies the repeat count. The value is the number of times the keystroke is
repeated as a result of the user's holding down the key.
| 16 23
| Specifies the scan code. The value depends on the original equipment
manufacturer (OEM).
| 24
| Specifies whether the key is an extended key, such as a function key or a key
on the numeric keypad. The value is 1 if the key is an extended key; otherwise,
it is 0.
| 25 28
| Reserved.
| 29
| Specifies the context code. The value is 1 if the ALT key is down; otherwise, it is 0.
| 30
| Specifies the previous key state. The value is 1 if the key is down before the
message is sent; it is 0 if the key is up.
| 31
| Specifies the transition state. The value is 0 if the key is being pressed and
1 if it is being released.
|
For more information about the lParam parameter, see Keystroke Message Flags.
Return Values
To prevent Windows from passing the message to the rest of the hook chain or
to the target window procedure, the return value must be a nonzero value. To
allow Windows to pass the message to the target window procedure, bypassing the
remaining procedures in the chain, the return value must be zero.
Remarks
An application installs the hook procedure by specifying the WH_KEYBOARD hook type and the address of the hook procedure in a call to the SetWindowsHookEx function.
KeyboardProc is a placeholder for the application-defined or library-defined function
name.

Nostalgia .Net |
|
.Net is powerful, but not all-powerful, so sometimes we need to use Win32 API for our .Net applications. It's simple enough with Platform Invoke if you have Win32 skill, but we do not always have time to dig the ancient documentation, declare the special types that are compatible with Win32, find the values of the Win32's constants and so on. Nostalgia .Net offers several simple-to-use classes, and components that will allow you to forget about the headache of Win32 and just use the power of Win32 in your application the same way as you use the native. Net classes. More » |
