Try SetCapture to get mouse input even if it's outside of your dialog.
To act only once when mouse cursor leaves dialog area try to catch WM_MOUSELEAVE, WM_NCMOUSELEAVE.
Hope that's what you need.

In your derived class MESSAGE_MAP section

BEGIN_MESSAGE_MAP(CMyDialog, CDialog)
ON_MESSAGE(WM_MOUSELEAVE,OnMouseLeave)
END_MESSAGE_MAP()

I want to do some test about keyboard loging without using hook api. in the following codz, i hope when i press Esc key, the prog will com to an end. but it seems PeekMessage() will never work, always failed. How could it be? Thanks a lot.

#include "windows.h"
#include "stdio.h"

void main()
{
MSG msg;
char buffer[10];
int i, ch;

while(true)
{
if( PeekMessage( &msg,
NULL,
0,
0,
PM_REMOVE))
{
if( msg.message == WM_KEYDOWN && msg.wParam == VK_ESCAPE) break; //Esc pressed, then quit

printf( "Enter a line: " );

/* Read in single line from "stdin": */
for( i = 0; i < 9; i++ )
{
ch = getchar();
if(ch != '\n') buffer[i] = (char)ch;
}

/* Terminate string with null character: */
buffer[9] = '\0';
printf( "%s\n", buffer);
*buffer=NULL;
}
else
printf("peekmessage failed...\n");
Sleep(3000); //ensure there is enough time for keyboard operations
}
}

Or even simpler:

if ( SHGetSpecialFolderPath( NULL, pszMyDocFolder, CSIDL_PERSONAL, FALSE ) )
    return pszMyDocFolder;

or:

if( SUCCEEDED( SHGetFolderPath( NULL,
                                CSIDL_PERSONAL,  // same as CSIDL_MYDOCUMENTS. SHGetFolderPath() & CSIDL_MYDOCUMENTS needs latest SDK
                                NULL,
                                0,
                                pszMyDocFolder
                              )
             )
  )
{
    return pszMyDocFolder;
}

depending on which version of the SDK you have installed.

How to get the current traffic bandwidth of computer?

Hello, everyone!

I want to get the current bandwidth (input and output respectively) of a Windows system, for example, 20.2kB for input and 30.1kB for output.

Where can I find some sample codes?

Thanks in advance,
Geo

For Windows NT-based systems, look at the Performance Data Helper API. You'll be interested in the Bytes Received/sec and Bytes Sent/sec counters on the Network Interface object, I think.

Thanks, Mike buddy!

I have taken some time to read the API you introduced to me. They are really helpful. I am using the following source code to get in/out traffic bandwidth, but the output is always zero. Can you help?

Source Code:

----------
#include <windows.h>
#include <conio.h>
#include <stdio.h>
#include <pdh.h>
#include "iphlpapi.h"
#include "Iptypes.h"
#include "Iprtrmib.h"

#pragma comment(lib,"iphlpapi.lib")

int main (int argc, char** argv)
{
unsigned long pOutBufLen = sizeof (IP_ADAPTER_INFO);
IP_ADAPTER_INFO AdapterInfo;
memset (&AdapterInfo, 0, sizeof (IP_ADAPTER_INFO));
MIB_IFROW ifrow;
DWORD last_sent, last_recv, current_sent, current_recv;
DWORD diftime, dlwinspeed, upwinspeed, dw_refreshtime;

if( GetAdaptersInfo(&AdapterInfo, &pOutBufLen) != ERROR_SUCCESS ){
printf("Could not open default interface!");
return ( 0 );
}

ifrow.dwIndex = AdapterInfo.Index;
if( GetIfEntry( &ifrow ) != NO_ERROR ) {
printf("Could not open default interface!");
return ( 0 );
}

while (1)
{
current_sent = ifrow.dwOutOctets - last_sent;
current_recv = ifrow.dwInOctets - last_recv;
last_sent = ifrow.dwOutOctets;
last_recv = ifrow.dwInOctets;
printf ("Octs out: %ld\n", ifrow.dwOutOctets);
printf ("Octs in: %ld\n", ifrow.dwInOctets);
diftime=(GetTickCount()-dw_refreshtime);
dlwinspeed = current_recv/diftime;
upwinspeed = current_sent/diftime;
dw_refreshtime=GetTickCount();
printf ("Band in: %ld\n", dlwinspeed);
printf ("Band out: %ld\n", upwinspeed);
Sleep (5000);
}

return 0;
}

Hi, I'm having trouble adding a dialog to my mmc snap-in.
the problem occus when I create a dialog in response to a menu command. while the dialog works fine if the menu command is from the context of a top-level scope item, the actual dialog is offset within it's own frame if it comes from a second level menu item.

any help would be much appreciated

How to get HMODULE/HINSTANCE handle of a different application?

kvcrajan27-Oct-03 18:45

kvcrajan

27-Oct-03 18:45

From a different application, I tried to get other application handle using "HINSTANCT hInst = GetWindowLong(hWnd, GWL_HINSTANCE);" which I am using in the function "HHOOK hHook = SetWindowsHookEx(WH_KEYBOARD, KeyboardProc, hInst, GetWindowThreadProcessId(hWnd, NULL));".

But the handle returned by "SetWindowsHookEx()" is NULL (because of 'hInst').

Could someone help me to resolve this problem by suggesting a alternate solution for this?

Thanks in Advance,

The second parameter is NOT the HINSTANCE of the appliction you want to hook, but the HINSTANCE of the dll contaning the hook procedure.

so you can write a DllMain function, and store the HINSTANCE of the dll in a global viriable.when you call SetWindowsHookEx, use the global viriable as the second parameter.

There are many sites dedicated to Winsock all over the web...if you just type Winsock API into Yahoo Search you'll find. Also I have the book, Windows Sockets Network Programming, which is pretty thorough on the subject. You might want to give it a look see over at Amazon.com
