no WM_KEYDOWN msgs
Phil!
>> OK, I can't refuse the focus–I'll handle keystrokes. So I used
ClassWiz to put in OnKeyDown and OnSysKeyDown message handlers in
CMyWindow–but they never get called. I use Spy and verify that the
WM_KEYDOWN message is being sent to my CMyWindow, but I don't get a
break at the breakpoint I set in the handlers above, nor does any debug
trace output get printed–these handlers just ain't getting called. So
what's a boy to do? Anybody got any clues as to either of the above?
Add a message handler for WM_CHAR. The framework "pre-translates" keystroke
messages when an ASCII character would be generated, and sends this message
instead of WM_KEYDOWN.
