Hello.

About an accelerator key

When there is a focus in the following points,

Accelerator key information is not notified MainFrame side of.

Please teach a good method notified MainFrame side of.

Please ensure how you are initializing the CExtHookSpy interface. In order to receive CExtHookSpy::OnHookSpyKeyMsg() and CExtHookSpy::OnHookSpyPreTranslateMessage() virtual method invocations for keyboard messages, you should initialize a spy object with the __EHSEF_KEYBOARD flag in the dwEHSEF parameter of the CExtHookSpy::HookSpyRegister() method invocation. It’s not enough to create your class derived from the CExtHookSpy class. You should register your spy object using the CExtHookSpy::HookSpyRegister() method.

Hello.

It is troublesome to do public of Hook every one class.

In the following commands,

   m_hKeyboardHook =
	::SetWindowsHookEx(
	 WH_KEYBOARD,
	 _HookKeyboardProc, 
	 0,
	 ::GetCurrentThreadId()
	 );

I want to transmit an accelerator key to main Window.

If there is a good command, please teach it

You don’t need any keyboard hooks for that. The keyboard accelerators are not translated due to specific implementation of the CDialog::PreTranslateMessage() virtual function. You should implement your accelerator key pre-translation by overriding the PreTranslateMessage() virtual method in your dialog class.

Hello.

By the control units such as a dialog unit or the combo box , It is troublesome to incorporate Pretransmessage.

I want to handle all just to declare Hook.

Is it impossible?

Yes, this is possible. You should derive some of your classes from CExtHookSpy. If your class is also derived from any MFC/Prof-UIS class (CObject, CCmdTarget, CWnd . . .), then the MFC/Prof-UIS class must be the first in the list of parent classes (class CYourClass : public CObject, public CExtHookSpy { . . . };). Then you should invoke the HookSpyRegister( __EHSEF_KEYBOARD | __EHSEF_PRE_TRANSLATION ); code in your class constructor and the HookSpyUnregister( __EHSEF_KEYBOARD | __EHSEF_PRE_TRANSLATION ); code in your class destructor. If your class is CWnd-based and you want it to be a spy only when it subclasses really created and valid HWND handle, then you should invoke the HookSpyRegister( __EHSEF_KEYBOARD | __EHSEF_PRE_TRANSLATION ); code in the PreSubclassWindow() virtual method and the HookSpyUnregister( __EHSEF_KEYBOARD | __EHSEF_PRE_TRANSLATION ); code in the PostNcDestroy() virtual method (this is what the CExtShellTreeCtrl and CExtResizableDialog classes do). After that you can implement the CExtHookSpy::OnHookSpyPreTranslateMessage() virtual method.

You should check invocation routes for the PreTranslateMessage() and OnCmdMsg() virtual methods in your project.

Cannot I watch a message in HookSpy?
