Hi Daniel,

 DD> Does anyone have a working example of using hooks with WinSetHook(),
 DD> particularly for input or journal hooks (HK_INPUT,
 DD> HK_JOURNALRECORDHOOK, HK_JOURNALPLAYBACKHOOK).

I use a hook to be notified if the mouse is moved, even if not my main
application is on top, but other programs which I DosSubStart()
In this example the use has been simplied to a beep.
The hook procedure is in a dll.

In my main program:
   HMODULE ModuleHandle;   

   DosQueryModuleHandle("mydll.dll",&ModuleHandle);
   WinSetHook(hab, NULLHANDLE, HK_INPUT, (PFN)RecordHook, ModuleHandle);

In Mydll.dll
 BOOL _export EXPENTRY RecordHook(HAB hab, PQMSG pqmsg, USHORT fs)
 {
  
   if(pqmsg->msg == WM_MOUSEMOVE)
   {
       DosBeep(1000,50);
   }
   return(FALSE);   // Operation has ended, so originator may continue
 }

Please note that the EXPENTRY in the hook procedure is vital, although even
borland's examples are without !


Bye, Johan.
