[NicoVB]

How do you simulate a mouse click on a specific coordinate???

Check out the mouse_event API.

This is what I found:

 

'Before you start this program, I suggest you save everything that wasn't saved yet.
Private Declare Sub mouse_event Lib "user32" (ByVal dwFlags As Long, ByVal dx As Long, ByVal dy As Long, ByVal cButtons As Long, ByVal dwExtraInfo As Long)
Const MOUSEEVENTF_LEFTDOWN = &H2
Const MOUSEEVENTF_LEFTUP = &H4
Const MOUSEEVENTF_MIDDLEDOWN = &H20
Const MOUSEEVENTF_MIDDLEUP = &H40
Const MOUSEEVENTF_MOVE = &H1
Const MOUSEEVENTF_ABSOLUTE = &H8000
Const MOUSEEVENTF_RIGHTDOWN = &H8
Const MOUSEEVENTF_RIGHTUP = &H10
Private Sub Form_Activate()

   Do
       'Simulate a mouseclick on the cursor's position
       mouse_event MOUSEEVENTF_LEFTDOWN Or MOUSEEVENTF_LEFTUP, 0&, 0&, cButt, dwEI
       DoEvents
   Loop
End Sub

What do I have to do if I want to put this code in to .NET????

[Guest mutant]

Same thing, I dont believe, mouse_event was poerted to .NET yet.

[NicoVB]

Can you change to code (types of variables) to .NET correct language?

 

The DECLARE statement, can you set it on another way... I remember I saw it otherwise.

[Guest mutant]

I dont think there there is a correct .NET way because mouse_event hasnt been not made a framework part yet.

But from what I know, VB6's long is the same lenght as VB.NET Interger so change the Longs in declarations to Integers.

You can use the DllImport() attribute.. somethin like this;

 

<DllImport("user32")> _
Sub mouse_event (ByVal dwFlags As Integer, _
  ByVal dx As Integer, _
  ByVal dy As Integer, _
  ByVal cButtons As Integer, _
  ByVal dwExtraInfo As Integer)

  '
End Sub

 

Hope that works.

 

mutant:

It's a windows API function, which means you can use it in any language as it's part of windows itself.

[Guest mutant]

lol... you think I didnt know?

Of course I know, but you know how the API functions are ported to .NET class libraries? I was talking about that

*shrug* Sorry. It didn't sound like you knew from the replies you were giving...

My style of writing is weird sometimes, wrong words can be picked for some things :)
