Members

  • wVk
    Provides a virtual-key code. The code must be a value in the range 1 to 254. For more information on virtual-key codes, see Virtual-Key Codes. The Winuser.h header file provides macro definitions (VK_*) for each value. If the dwFlags member specifies KEYEVENTF_UNICODE, then wVk must be 0.
  • wScan
    Provides a hardware scan code for the key. If dwFlags specifies KEYEVENTF_UNICODE, then wScan specifies a Unicode character that is to be sent to the foreground application.

    Provides various aspects of a keystroke. This member can be a combination of the following values.

    KEYEVENTF_KEYUP Indicates that the key is being released. If this flag is not present, then the key is being pressed.
