Hooking - Intercept MM_MCINOTIFY Message?
Aug 17, 2011
I play a midi file using this simple win32 api call:
MidiMsg = "open " & c_midiFile & " type sequencer alias mid1 notify"
ret = mciSendString(MidiMsg, "", 0, Form1.Handle)
MidiMsg = "play mid1"
ret = mciSendString("play mid1", "", 0, Form1.Handle)
Callback message MM_MCINOTIFY has a value of &H3B9 (found it using "spy++")I have to know when this message (MM_MCINOTIFY) is fired and read his parameters. In an old version of code I've written years ago in VB6 i had to use CallWindowProc and SetWindowLong win32 api, but now in VS2005 i cannot get it to work.Still I have to try with unmanaged code or are there any other ways to do this in vb .net?

Is it possible to Intercept a Game's forcefeedback message wich was sent to a joystick? WM_???
I only need to intercept that message, nothing more.
i've read about hooking (wich is illegal??), but its very difficult, and i do not know the c++ language, but i know vb very well.

when catching the MM_MCINOTIFY msg with wParam = MCI_NOTIFY_SUCCESSFUL, how can i get additional information about the event? i'm guessing marshal.ptrToStructure, but which structure would it be?

I'm working on a tool that requires overlays ala X-Fire. I'm hoping to do it in C# or VB.NET rather than resorting to C++, but the only solutions i've found for .NET cause a large performance hit (~20FPS in games). Take a look here: [URL]

I have been working on a project for some time now and I am stuck. I am trying to sense when a navigation software speaks so i can mute the volume of everything else on the computer.
my problem is that i cant properly sense the audio of the software. i am using windows 7 and vb.net. i have done a good amount of research, but i have not come up with an answer.
i am almost positive that i need to intercept the win32api call of the software to trigger the mute that i will use. i dont know how to do this, all the information i can find that is even close to this subject is for 98, nt and 2k.
does anyone know of any books (or websites) that contain information on this subject?

Is there a way in vb.net to subclass/hooking in to any controls scroll bar and change it is colours etc (I saw this once in C++ but lost it). It�s ok for MS giving us user owner drawn controls, or at the very least allowing us to draw the controls information but it looks dam write awful if the scroll bar does not fit into the GUI.

I am not very familiar with VB.NET so I don't know if this is possible.Some code I am working on is setting the properties of a very large class. In the setter of each property an event is raised to indicate that the class data has changed. An event handler then serializes the instance of the class to a database.Obviously I do not want this to happen after each property is set, so I need to either have a delay before saving, or something else.I am keeping a large list of instances in a cache implementation already, so one option would be to only process the cache every now and then and save all unsaved instances in cache to the database.So I tried to see if I could derive a class from Application (and override DoEvents), but it is NotInheritable, so no luck there.

I currently have software that sends out plain text(i.e. 'X') to comm 1 port and was wondering if there was any way to capture that plain text and also respond to that port on the same compute as the port without having anything plugged into the machine (i.e. 9 pin serial cable). I am trying to avoid buy any more hardware as this is an objective to acutally cut down on hardware.

Basically, I have an app that communicates with a server. I need a way to monitor all the sent and received packets that are being transmitted through the app. I've been killing myself the past two days trying to figure a way to hook into ws2_32.dll to monitor these packets but I can't find a way!

I tried to use this code in the form:
AddHandler MyControl.MouseDown, AddressOf StartDrag
This wont give me an error, but it doesn't happen anything when I mouse down on the Control.
the same doesn't work if I put it in the user control.
Private Sub StartDrag(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As MouseEventArgs)
Dim Box = CType(sender, Control)
Box.Tag = New DragInfo(Form.MousePosition, Box.Location)
End Sub

I have been trying to build a game bot in vb.net.One of the main problems is getting access to the text the game prints on the screen so I have been trying to hook the games calls to the windows api drawtext and textout functions.I have been hunting for examples of how to set up a hook in vb.net for a long time without any luck.I have found it impossible to translate examples in old school vb, C++, and C#.For convenience's sake I would like to use the freely available deviare and/or easyhook libraries.

I want to be able to intercept a print request and then check whether the current user of the computer has enough credit to print. So once the request is intercepted i want to check the total number of pages requested and check against a database how many pages this user is allocated to print, if the total number to print exceeds the number in the database then cancel the print job and notify the user

Is there a way to intercept POST data like HTTPAnalyzer?Can I make a call to send the data, see how it's formatted but actually block the connection if I know where it's coming from?
My goal here is to replicate the sending of an email through an SMTP server.

This is not a programming question but a physics one.I was wondering if anyone has a link that good give me the math for two objects: one moving and the other intercepting. Specifically, I need to determine the vectors of the pursuing object when given the vectors of the object he is trying to pursue.This is classic video game programming and in my instance it's supposed to be a football player running with the ball being chased by a tackler.The code I have now determines where the tackler should go at one particular instant, but does not project where he should be in order to lead the target.What happens is the tackler runs behind the ball carrier - he doesn't cut him off.It's like if a QB throws the ball to where his receiver is instead of in front of him; when the ball arrives the receiver is long gone.

I am looking for a way to possibly intercept the point that a file is being accessed on a network share. Specifically before it is determined whether the user has access to the file or not.The goal will be to grant access to that file if the file request is coming from a specific process and that user currently does not have access.

When a user clicks on the little red "x" a.k.a. the form close button on the form command bar, what even is activated besides FormClosed()
I know FormClosing() is called, but I cannot really stop the form from closing after my code is run. I want to be able to show a messagebox that asks if the user wants to exit the form or not. Obviously if they click no, I want the form to stay open, how would I do this?

This may seem complicated but it's a somewhat basic concept, just probably a complicated execution, I am trying to create a program that will allow you to basically "IM" between computers on a LAN network. That's the concept, I plan on doing this by generating .bat files, executing them and printing the last few messages sent in a label, the big problem I have is receiving messages, I have no idea whatsoever how to even go about finding out how to take the messages received from the messenger service and print them into the label, any ideas?EDIT: This is in VB.Net 2008

For my webbrowser application I would like to have a separate form to display online pdf files.Does anyone know how I would check to see if a clicked page link points to a pdf file and if so open form3 and load the file into the pdf reader component (pdfread) without causing the webbrowser to navigate to the link, this always seems to open the pdf file in a new instance of internet explorer.
I realise that to load the file into the pdf reader the code would be
pdfread.loadfile(whatever file)Hope I've explained this properly.
