CWnd::OnSysChar

The framework calls this member function if CWnd has the input focus and the WM_SYSKEYUP and WM_SYSKEYDOWN messages are translated.

afx_msg void OnSysChar(
   UINT nChar,
   UINT nRepCnt,
   UINT nFlags 
);

Parameters

  • nChar
    Specifies the ASCII-character key code of a Control-menu key.

  • nRepCnt
    Specifies the repeat count (the number of times the keystroke is repeated as a result of the user holding down the key).

  • nFlags
    The nFlags parameter can have these values:

    Value

    Meaning

    0-15

    Specifies the repeat count. The value is the number of times the keystroke is repeated as a result of the user holding down the key..

    16-23

    Specifies the scan code. The value depends on the original equipment manufacturer (OEM)

    24

    Specifies whether the key is an extended key, such as the right-hand ALT and CTRL keys that appear on an enhanced 101- or 102-key keyboard. The value is 1 if it is an extended key; otherwise, it is 0.

    25-28

    Used internally by Windows.

    29

    Specifies the context code. The value is 1 if the ALT key is held down while the key is pressed; otherwise, the value is 0.

    30

    Specifies the previous key state. The value is 1 if the key is down before the message is sent, or it is 0 if the key is up.

    31

    Specifies the transition state. The value is 1 if the key is being released, or it is 0 if the key is being pressed.

Remarks

It specifies the virtual key code of the Control-menu key. (For a list of of standard virtual key codes, see Winuser.h)

When the context code is 0, WM_SYSCHAR can pass the WM_SYSCHAR message to the TranslateAccelerator Windows function, which will handle it as though it were a normal key message instead of a system character-key. This allows accelerator keys to be used with the active window even if the active window does not have the input focus.

For IBM Enhanced 101- and 102-key keyboards, enhanced keys are the right ALT and the right CTRL keys on the main section of the keyboard; the INS, DEL, HOME, END, PAGE UP, PAGE DOWN, and arrow keys in the clusters to the left of the numeric keypad; and the slash (/) and ENTER keys in the numeric keypad. Some other keyboards may support the extended-key bit in nFlags.

备注

This member function is called by the framework to allow your application to handle a Windows message. The parameters passed to your function reflect the parameters received by the framework when the message was received. If you call the base-class implementation of this function, that implementation will use the parameters originally passed with the message and not the parameters you supply to the function.
