Here Goes My Code // hook.cpp : Defines the entry point for the console application. // #include "stdafx.h" #include <windows.h> #include <iostream> using namespace std; LRESULT CALLBACK GetMsgProc(int code, WPARAM wParam, LPARAM lParam); int _tmain(int argc, _TCHAR* argv[]){ int __; cout << "Hallo World" << endl; SetWindowsHookEx(WH_GETMESSAGE, GetMsgProc, 0, 0); cin >> __; return 0; } LRESULT CALLBACK GetMsgProc(int code, WPARAM wParam, LPARAM lParam){ cout << code << endl; return 0; } I am trying to get WM_PAINT event... at the moment I am trying to trap all the events. Where I am Missing ?

I'm trying to figure out if there's a way to use SetWindowsHookEx and be able to affect apps that are run with Admin rights on Vista, with UAC enabled. This is an app that will need to add a small button to the caption bar of other windows to enable some multi-monitor-aware handling. I would have thought this couldn't be done, but I've seen one app that appears to do this. As far as I can tell, this other apps is not being run with Admin rights, and yet it can affect all apps in the system, including those with Admin privilege. It would seem that there's a way to do this, then, but I'm at a

I am trying to set windows hooks in my program to an external EXE. This will be used to monitor resizing/minimizing of the window, so I can resize my program similarly, docking to the window. How do I get around error codes 1428 and 126 below? When calling SetWindowsHookEx with a null hMod, I was getting this error 1428 . I get the same error if passing the current module (instead of IntPtr.Zero), which it seems to get correctly, as so: IntPtr module = PInvoke.GetModuleHandle(null); [...] SetWindowsHookEx(...,...,module,...); int error = PInvoke.GetLastError(); 1428 = Cannot set nonlocal hook

Microsoft does not recommend DirectInput for keyboard and mouse input. As such, I've written an input manager class that uses SetWindowsHookEx to hook into WndProc and GetMsg. I believe the hooks are set appropriately, though they look to be the cause of various issues. Neither my WndProc nor GetMsg hooks receive any of the messages that the actual WndProc is receiving. My input manager never receives the WM_INPUT, WM_ BUTTON , WM_MOUSEWHEEL, and WM_KEY* messages that it needs. What gives? Partial header: namespace InputManager { class CInputManager { HWND m_Window; HHOOK m_WndProcHook; HHOOK

In a few words: blocking Win up after Win + Tab makes Windows think Win is still down, so then pressing S with the Win key up for example will open the search charm rather than just type "s"... until the user presses Win again. Not blocking it means the Windows Start menu will show up. I'm in a conundrum! I have no trouble hooking into shortcuts using Alt + Tab using LowLevelKeyboardHook , or Win + Some Ubounded Key using RegisterHotKey . The problem happens only with the Win key using LowLevelKeyboardHook . In the example below, I'm taking over the Win up event when the Win + Tab combination

After setting the global hook SetWindowsHookEx standard form's buttons working oddly. For example, if I click close button, then the mouse freezes for 5-10 seconds and form too. I found topic with same problem C# low level mouse hook and form event handling but there is only one answer. And I do not like that solution, because it needs to do each time Hook, when form deactivated, and UnHook, when program activated... Is there a better way to solve this problem? Edited Here is my code: using System.Windows.Forms; using Gma.UserActivityMonitor; using System; using System.Runtime.InteropServices;

I'm trying to "stretch" an existing application. The goal is to make an existing application become larger without changing the code of that application. A cosntraint is that the stretched application will not "notice" it, so if the application query a created window size it'll see the original size and not the resized size. I managed to resize the windows using SetWindowsHookEx : HHOOK hMessHook = SetWindowsHookEx(WH_CBT,CBTProc, hInst, 0); And: LRESULT CALLBACK CBTProc( __in int nCode, __in WPARAM wParam, __in LPARAM lParam) { if (HCBT_CREATEWND == nCode) { CBT_CREATEWND *WndData = (CBT
