SERIALKEYSA structure (winuser.h)
Contains information about the SerialKeys accessibility feature, which interprets data from a communication aid attached to a serial port as commands causing the system to simulate keyboard and mouse input.
Syntax
typedef struct tagSERIALKEYSA {
UINT cbSize;
DWORD dwFlags;
LPSTR lpszActivePort;
LPSTR lpszPort;
UINT iBaudRate;
UINT iPortState;
UINT iActive;
} SERIALKEYSA, *LPSERIALKEYSA;
Members
cbSize
Type: UINT
Specifies the structure size, in bytes.
dwFlags
Type: DWORD
Specifies a combination of the following values:
lpszActivePort
Type: LPSTR
Points to a string that contains the name of the serial port that receives input from the communication aid when the SerialKeys feature is on. If no port is being used, this member is NULL. If this member is "Auto", the system watches all unused serial ports for input from communication aids.
lpszPort
Type: LPSTR
Reserved; must be NULL.
iBaudRate
Type: UINT
Specifies the baud rate setting for the serial port specified by the lpszActivePort member. This member should be set to one of the CBR_ values defined in the winbase.h header file. If lpszActivePort is NULL, this member is zero.
iPortState
Type: UINT
Specifies the state of the port specified by the lpszActivePort member. If lpszActivePort is NULL, iPortState is zero; otherwise, it is one of the following values:
Value | Meaning |
---|---|
|
All input on this port is ignored by the SerialKeys feature. |
|
Input on this port is watched for SerialKeys activation sequences when no other application has the port open. |
|
All input on this port is treated as SerialKeys commands. |
iActive
Type: UINT
Specifies the active port.
Remarks
An application uses this structure when calling the SystemParametersInfo function with the SPI_GETSERIALKEYS or SPI_SETSERIALKEYS value. When using SPI_GETSERIALKEYS, an application must specify the cbSize, lpszActivePort, and lpszPort members of the SERIALKEYS structure; the SystemParametersInfo function fills the remaining members. An application must specify all structure members when using the SPI_SETSERIALKEYS value.
Note
The winuser.h header defines SERIALKEYS as an alias which automatically selects the ANSI or Unicode version of this function based on the definition of the UNICODE preprocessor constant. Mixing usage of the encoding-neutral alias with code that not encoding-neutral can lead to mismatches that result in compilation or runtime errors. For more information, see Conventions for Function Prototypes.
