I have found a way to listen to the mouse event, but what I really want is the touch event not mouse. They seem to share the same code. Is there any way to tell if the event was touch and not mouse? Thanks

The lParam argument of your hookProc callback is a pointer to an MSLLHOOKSTRUCT. It contains a very poorly documented dwExtraInfo variable, which tells you whether it was generated from a touch.
If all of the bits in 0xFF515700 are set in dwExtraInfo, then the callback was invoked in response to a touch:
[StructLayout(LayoutKind.Sequential)]
struct MSLLHOOKSTRUCT
{
public POINT pt;
public uint mouseData;
public uint flags;
public uint time;
public IntPtr dwExtraInfo;
}
const int TOUCH_FLAG = 0xFF515700;
bool IsTouch(IntPtr lParam)
{
MSLLHOOKSTRUCT hookData = (MSLLHOOKSTRUCT)Marshal.PtrToStructure(lParam,
typeof(MSLLHOOKSTRUCT));
uint extraInfo = (uint)info.dwExtraInfo.ToInt32();
if ((extraInfo & TOUCH_FLAG) == TOUCH_FLAG)
return true;
return false;
}

I have found a way to separate touch and mouse events on wpf project. the issue I have now is that my hookProc() seems to be getting only the first touch events. when there are more than 2 touches on the screen, only the first touch has response from hookProc(). I want to be able to support multi touch in my application.

I want to create a new class and then show a window with the specefied class.

wind_class.hbrBackground = (IntPtr) 5;
wind_class.cbClsExtra = 0;
wind_class.cbWndExtra = 0;
wind_class.hInstance = Marshal.GetHINSTANCE(GetType().Module);
wind_class.hIcon = this.Icon.Handle;
wind_class.hCursor = IntPtr.Zero;

IntPtr lolo = CreateWindowEx(0, "MyClass", "MyClass",0,0,0,30,40,IntPtr.Zero,IntPtr.Zero,IntPtr.Zero,IntPtr.Zero);
ShowWindow(lolo, 1);
UpdateWindow(lolo);
}
}
}
But it isn't working correctly.
It doesn't show the window. when i search with Spy++ by my class name , It cant find any results..
I searched in web and do some edits in my code but they didn't work.
Where is my Problem !?
Regards.
Plain-vanilla Win32 is no fun from Win32 C, and it is much less fun from .NET. But anyway, it may be useful in rare cases. Here comes a C# class which should do what you want.
First, a general remarks on your software. In Win32, you should always check the return codes of the system calls, and in case of an error, call GetLastError() to get a more detailed information about the failure. If you had checked the result of the RegisterClass function and it failed, you would have known that it is useless to continue without having fixed that one.
The following is a class which may be used as template for further studies and which should successfully register and create a resizable window. Additionally some simple actions like doubleclick are processed in a custom Window procedure. For some parts of the code credit goes to this site being one of the very few I found in the web presenting something working.
The CreateWindowEx is tricky, because you must NOT put in a string as class name, but the result of the RegisterClassEx. The used constants are found mainly in the C-header file winuser.h. To be able to do something useful with this method, the main painting has to be done "by hand", being a cumbersome and tedious work by manipulationg Device Contexts properly. Of course, all this does not show up in the following example. The "create" method of the class may be called e.g. from a Windows Form button click. The namespace name is of course arbitrarily selected. The WinForm project is x86 32-bit, .NET 4.0.
Have fun!

While my C# WinForms app is running, I need to detect when the mouse pointer is moved over a 3rd party application.
I've done some Google'ing but I can't seem to find a useful code example that shows how to set up a Hook Procedure to another application using C# to detect Windows Messages.
Can someone please show me how to setup a C# hook procedure so I can detect the WM_MOUSEMOVE message on another app (e.g. Notepad.exe)?

I need to close a download popup in web browser control (disallow user to downloading file).
How i can achieve this?
I found this:
How to block downloads in .NET WebBrowser control?
And i used second answer. It's working but i have problem with it. It's seems that calling GetText of the created object is blocking a whole thread. I don't have any solution for it.
private static void WinEventProc(IntPtr hWinEventHook, uint eventType, IntPtr hwnd, int idObject, int idChild, uint dwEventThread, uint dwmsEventTime)
{

{
string text = GetText(hwnd);
if (text.Contains("File Download"))
SendMessage(hwnd, 0x0010, IntPtr.Zero, IntPtr.Zero); //close window
}
}
}
public static string GetText(IntPtr hWnd)
{
int length = GetWindowTextLength(hWnd); //my app is freezing here - i think it's because i'm calling it from message loop.
StringBuilder sb = new StringBuilder(length + 1);
GetWindowText(hWnd, sb, sb.Capacity);
return sb.ToString();
}

Ok, thanks #sgorozco for suggestion. Now i'm using SetWindowsHookEx and WH_CBT. Then in message loop i'm catching HCBT_CREATEWND events. But i have problem with getting CBT_CREATEWND from lparm. I'm getting "Managed Debugging Assistant 'FatalExecutionEngineError'" exception.

//Marshal.FreeHGlobal((IntPtr)lParam.ToUInt64());
}
return CallNextHookEx(IntPtr.Zero, code, wParam, lParam);
}
//set hook
IntPtr hWinEventHook = SetWindowsHookEx(5, myCallbackDelegate, user32DLL, 0);
//edit 2
Here are my definitions:
private delegate IntPtr HookProc(int code, IntPtr wParam, IntPtr lParam);
private static HookProc myCallbackDelegate = new HookProc(MessageLoopFuctnion);
[DllImport("user32.dll", SetLastError = true)]
static extern IntPtr SetWindowsHookEx(int hookType, HookProc lpfn, IntPtr hMod, uint dwThreadId);
[DllImport("user32.dll")]
static extern IntPtr CallNextHookEx(IntPtr hhk, int nCode, IntPtr wParam, IntPtr lParam);
My myCallbackDelegate is a static field so it's not GC collected for sure.
Temporary i'm enumerating all windows every 500ms and look for dialog which contains text "File Download". But it is an ugly solution.
The reason for the FatalExecutionEngineError are the strings in CREATESTRUCT. Replace these with a IntPtr and you will get no exception.
[StructLayout(LayoutKind.Sequential)]
public struct CREATESTRUCT {
public IntPtr lpCreateParams;
public IntPtr hInstance;
public IntPtr hMenu;
public IntPtr hwndParent;
public int cy;
public int cx;
public int y;
public int x;
public int style;
public IntPtr lpszName;
public IntPtr lpszClass;
public int dwExStyle;
}
(Maybe you can use GetClassName and GetWindowText instead as workaround. not tested)
I am running an app where I would like single left button mouse clicks to be repeated while the left mouse button is held down (so basically removing the need to keep clicking). I wrote a small test app that hooks into the mouse events and listens for the lb down/up events. However, the app listens to mouse clicks anywhere on my desktop. Is there a way to make it listen to just a specific process?

You can use the 4th argument of SetWindowsHookEx(), the dwThreadId argument, to be selective. You need to pass the thread ID of the GUI thread of the process you want to monitor. Obtain the value with, say, GetWindowThreadProcessId() if you have a handle of one of the windows owned by the process. If it is your own process then use GetCurrentThreadId(). If it is a Winforms app then favor IMessageFilter instead of a hook.
