Hi,
I'm using windows XP and trying to simulate mouse movement and mouse clicks. The following code supposed to move mouse to absolute position (100,100) and perform a click:
//test.cpp file:
#include "stdafx.h"
int main(int argc, char* argv[]){
INPUT *buffer = new INPUT[3]; //allocate a buffer
buffer->type = INPUT_MOUSE;
buffer->mi.dx = 100;
buffer->mi.dy = 100;
buffer->mi.mouseData = 0;
buffer->mi.dwFlags = (MOUSEEVENTF_ABSOLUTE | MOUSEEVENTF_MOVE);
buffer->mi.time = 0;
buffer->mi.dwExtraInfo = 0;
(buffer+1)->type = INPUT_MOUSE;
(buffer+1)->mi.dx = 100;
(buffer+1)->mi.dy = 100;
(buffer+1)->mi.mouseData = 0;
(buffer+1)->mi.dwFlags = MOUSEEVENTF_LEFTDOWN;
(buffer+1)->mi.time = 0;
(buffer+1)->mi.dwExtraInfo = 0;
(buffer+2)->type = INPUT_MOUSE;
(buffer+2)->mi.dx = 100;
(buffer+2)->mi.dy = 100;
(buffer+2)->mi.mouseData = 0;
(buffer+2)->mi.dwFlags = MOUSEEVENTF_LEFTUP;
(buffer+2)->mi.time = 0;
(buffer+2)->mi.dwExtraInfo = 0;
SendInput(3,buffer,sizeof(INPUT));
delete (buffer); //clean up our messes.
return 0;
}when "stdafx.h" is:
#pragma once
#define WIN32_LEAN_AND_MEAN // Exclude rarely-used stuff from Windows headers
#define _WIN32_WINNT 0x0500 // so the code would compile
#include <windows.h>The problem is that the mouse moves to position (0,0) and performs a click. I've been unable so far to simulate mouse movement to any absolute coordinate (x,y) specified in mi.dx and mi.dy respectively.
If someone knows a way to force mouse to move to absolute position (x,y) please tell me...
