ImmGetVirtualKey (Windows Embedded CE 6.0)
1/6/2010
This function recovers the original virtual key value associated with a key input message processed by the IME.
Syntax
UINT ImmGetVirtualKey(
HWND hWnd
);
Parameters
- hWnd
[in] Handle to the window that receives the key message.
Return Value
If TranslateMessage is called by the application, ImmGetVirtualKey returns VK_PROCESSKEY; otherwise, it returns the virtual key.
Remarks
Although the IMM sets the virtual key value to VK_PROCESSKEY when the IME processes a given virtual key, an application can recover the original virtual key value with the ImmGetVirtualKey function. This function is only used for key input messages containing the VK_PROCESSKEY value. Applications can only get the original virtual key by using this function after receiving the WM_KEYDOWN (VK_PROCESSKEY) message, and before TranslateMessage is called in its own message loop.
