Block Input

[Niphyr]

I'm finding it hard to find an example of a 'BlockInput' block of code.

Not block input as in into a particular application, but like the VB API blockinput which blocks all keyboard input system wide and freezes mouse.

I'm guessing being an API i could use it in C, not a clue how though.

How about BlockInput( true) when you need to block the input and BlockInput( false) when you need to unblock it?

From MSDN: "Note that only the thread that blocked input can successfully unblock input." ( link:

)

Please read the documentation in the on-line MSDN, it specifies the cases when the system automatically unblocks the input and how does BlockInput(...) affects the (a)asynchronous key state.
