How to detect my application is idle in c# (form covered)?

问题

I have this problem today, i saw this solution:

How to detect my application is idle in c#?

I tried that, but my form is covered with userControls and other elements, and the mouseover or keydown events are only fired in the margins of those elements.

Is there a better way?

回答1:

Hacking together a solution with timers and mouse events is unnecessary. Just handle the Application.Idle event.

Application.Idle += Application_Idle;

private void Application_Idle(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
    //    The application is now idle.
}

If you want a more dynamic approach you could subscribe to all of the events in your Form because ultimately if a user is idle no events should ever be raised.

private void HookEvents()
{
    foreach (EventInfo e in GetType().GetEvents())
    {
        MethodInfo method = GetType().GetMethod("HandleEvent", BindingFlags.NonPublic | BindingFlags.Instance);
        Delegate provider = Delegate.CreateDelegate(e.EventHandlerType, this, method);
        e.AddEventHandler(this, provider);
    }
}

private void HandleEvent(object sender, EventArgs eventArgs)
{
    lastInteraction = DateTime.Now;
}

You could declare a global variable private DateTime lastInteraction = DateTime.Now; and assign to it from the event handler. You could then write a simple property to determine how many seconds have elapsed since the last user interaction.

private TimeSpan LastInteraction
{
    get { return DateTime.Now - lastInteraction; }
}

And then poll the property with a Timer as described in the original solution.

private void timer1_Tick(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
   if (LastInteraction.TotalSeconds > 90)
   {
       MessageBox.Show("Idle!", "Come Back! I need You!");
   }
}
