Class2::Draw() is virtual by default. The virtual keyword is unnecessary.

Hello,
I have three applications; A, B and C. A always stays in foreground and has focus. B an C run in background. B receives messages from A via socket. I need B to send Shift/Ctrl/Alt + key to C based on A's messages. I've tried CKeystrokeEngine, and it works some times but not all the time. Is there anything I can do to CKeystrokeEngine and change it's behavior so that it works all the time?

I just had a look into the CKeystrokeEngine class, it seems it depends on the keybd_event API and depends on the SetForegroundWindow and it is not sure that the window will be the active window to receive the keyboard event as CWindowEngine::FocusWindow() always return true without checking the return value of SetForegroundWindow API. if my assumption is correct B and C no longer be said as background app as it is brought to foreground every time a keystroke is to be send
As the A, B, C all r ur application and ur already communicating using sockets, i would suggest that u use ur own protocol in the same connection and interpret the key strokes, it doesnot require the window to be active foreground window.

I can't change A or C. B is the only app I am writing and have control over.

Have you tried PostMessage() with the WM_KEYDOWN message?
|
|
|
|
|
Sh*t/Alt/Ctrl keys can't be sent using postmessage.

Wrong. Those keys can be sent by using PostMessage()
::PostMessage(myHwnd, WM_KEYDOWN, VK_SHIFT, 0);
::PostMessage(myHwnd, WM_KEYUP, VK_SHIFT, 0);
This code will send a shift key press and release event to the window with the handle myHwnd. And similarly you could send just any key press event, even multiple (simultaneous) key press events.

Try it your self. It does not work.
::PosMessage(myWnd, WM_KEYDOWN, VK_F13, 0); // VK_13 is SHIFT + F1
::PosMessage(myWnd, WM_KEYUP, VK_F13, 0);
or
::PosMessage(myWnd, WM_KEYDOWN, VK_SHIFT, 0);
::PosMessage(myWnd, WM_KEYDOWN, VK_F1, 0);
::PosMessage(myWnd, WM_KEYUP, VK_F1, 0);
::PosMessage(myWnd, WM_KEYUP, VK_SHIFT, 0);

Hmm... I've got it working by executing my code from within a DLL (a hook, to be precise). Neither do I have dev tools on this machine, so I can't test something right now.

I tried in a hook DLL, but did not work either. Can you post your codes here?

I'll be happy to share code with you if that would help you. I'll write to you when I am on my Dev machine.

what about a combination of keybd_event(Shift/Ctrl/Alt) and PostMessage(key).

Hi everybody,
- I want to scan a list of parallel port of my PC in my app.
- and I want to set parallel port to ECP mode in BIOS from my app.
I use VC++ 6.0, Win2k.
How to do that ?
Best Regards,
Quang,

Hi,
The OS's from Win2000 to greater versions will not allow to access the ports directly. you may need to use a third party component to do it. i think in net u can find free libraries.

Have you tried the Win32_ParallelPort WMI class?

- I write a DLL with funtions inport/outport, use CreateFile,OpenSCManager,OpenService,StartService,....
- I copy my App with my DLL file to some PC. some of them work ok and some other didn'n work.
Why ?

I have no clue. What have you discovered using the debugger? Have you narrowed the problem down to just one or two statements? Are you checking return values from functions?

Hi
I want to disable pasting on an edit control
i have created a subclass control for CEdit and am using the following bit of code to disable pasting
which works in the way it stops the user being able to paste into the edit control
but it is disabling the v character as well so they are unable to type that in
Can anyone advise on a solution, so that it disables paste but the user can still use the v char
thanks
Simon
BOOL CCPEditControl::PreTranslateMessage(MSG* pMsg)
{
switch( pMsg->message )
{
case WM_KEYDOWN:
{
switch( pMsg->wParam )
{
case 0x56:
{
if( GetKeyState(VK_CONTROL) )
return true;
}
break;
}
}
break;
case WM_RBUTTONDOWN:
{
return true;
}
break;
}
return CEdit::PreTranslateMessage(pMsg);
}

No, and if there was one you certainly would not find it in the documentation[^]

You just need to override the default processing for the WM_PASTE message, something like:
LRESULT CCPEditControl::DefWindowProc(UINT message, WPARAM wParam, LPARAM lParam)
{
switch( message )
{
case WM_PASTE:
{
return 0;
}
break;
}
return CEdit::DefWindowProc(message, wParam, lParam);
}
