PeekConsoleInput
The PeekConsoleInput function reads data from the specified console input buffer without removing
it from the buffer.
BOOL PeekConsoleInput(
HANDLE hConsoleInput,
| // handle to a console input buffer
| PINPUT_RECORD lpBuffer,
| // pointer to the buffer for peek data
| DWORD nLength,
| // number of records to read
| LPDWORD lpNumberOfEventsRead
| // pointer to number of records read
| );
|
|
Parameters
hConsoleInput
Identifies the input buffer. The handle must have GENERIC_READ access.
lpBuffer
Points to an INPUT_RECORD buffer that receives the input buffer data.
nLength
Specifies the size, in records, of the buffer pointed to by the lpBuffer parameter.
lpNumberOfEventsRead
Points to a 32-bit variable that receives the number of input records read.
Return Values
If the function succeeds, the return value is nonzero.
If the function fails, the return value is zero. To get extended error
information, call GetLastError.
Remarks
If the number of records requested exceeds the number of records available in
the buffer, the number available is read. If no data is available, the function
returns immediately.
Windows NT: This function uses either Unicode characters or 8-bit characters from the
console's current codepage. The console's codepage defaults initially to the
system's OEM codepage. To change the console's codepage, use the SetConsoleCP or SetConsoleOutputCP functions, or use the chcp or mode con cp select= commands.

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 » |
