Well as the title says, are you the type that codes malware. This has nothing to do with forum legislation as we're not violating any rights. Just respond professionally.

SendMessage to click a button

legalcookie — Tue, 09 Feb 2010 01:04:37 +0800

I'm trying to click a button and what i've tried are

SendMessage(hwnd, WM_LBUTTONDOWN, NULL, NULL);
SendMessage(hwnd, WM_LBUTTONUP, NULL, NULL);

as well as

RECT rt;
GetWindowRect(hwnd, &rt);
mouse_event(MOUSEEVENTF_LEFTDOWN, rt.left + 10, rt.top + 10, NULL, NULL);
mouse_event(MOUSEEVENTF_LEFTUP, rt.left + 10, rt.top + 10, NULL, NULL);

as well as INPUT structure and then SendInput too.

However all these methods require my cursor to be placed on the button window before it actually clicks. What i want is the button to be clicked without my cursor bothered. I thought of sending something like VK_RETURN to the button but it's not possible.

The button actually triggers an edit / textbox that contains messages (so it's a send button like your msn) if there's no solution for clicking the button are there any alternatives for hitting the enter key on the edit / textbox? (no keybd_event please since that require my window to be the current active window)

I guess SendMessage is the answer but i require the write parameter for it... anyone able to help

I'm looking for a full proof proving that it is or is it not illegal here in malaysia. Most people here would reply it's illegal but without proof, i'm looking for a proof of it.

Anyone can help? I'm wanting to ship one in but it may be confiscated by custom.

Anyone here coded socket programming in C before

legalcookie — Mon, 01 Feb 2010 12:56:16 +0800

Well i've browsed through the forum topics in this section yesterday and i sort of stucked with programming at the moment so i hope those that are good in programming C can put a path for me.

Basically i'm running a server that is constantly sending a "refresh" signal to my client via send() at the background and i have some normal functions for the user (at the serverside) to send messages to my client.

The problem is that the "refresh" signal is being receveived in the message part so is there anyway to overcome this. What i have in mind was to setup 2 sockets for the client but its going to be quite a lot of redundant code. I also thought that recvfrom and sendto could actually differentiate the socket but i don't think they will.

Thanks in advance for those that tries to help
