Set global hotkeys using C#

I need to capture a key press when my program is not in focus. (ie. Ctrl开发者_开发问答+Alt+J) and trigger an event in my program.

Thus far i have found this dll that appears to be the correct path"

[DllImport("user32.dll")]private static extern int RegisterHotKey(IntPtr hwnd, int id,int fsModifiers, int vk);

[DllImport("user32.dll")] private static extern int UnregisterHotKey(IntPtr hwnd, int id);


Please note that this code will not trigger events in console application projects. You have to use WinForms project for events to fire.

This is the correct code:

public sealed  class KeyboardHook : IDisposable
{
    // Registers a hot key with Windows.
    [DllImport("user32.dll")]
    private static extern bool RegisterHotKey(IntPtr hWnd, int id, uint fsModifiers, uint vk);
    // Unregisters the hot key with Windows.
    [DllImport("user32.dll")]
    private static extern bool UnregisterHotKey(IntPtr hWnd, int id);

    /// <summary>
    /// Represents the window that is used internally to get the messages.
    /// </summary>
    private class Window : NativeWindow, IDisposable
    {
        private static int WM_HOTKEY = 0x0312;

        public Window()
        {
            // create the handle for the window.
            this.CreateHandle(new CreateParams());
        }

        /// <summary>
        /// Overridden to get the notifications.
        /// </summary>
        /// <param name="m"></param>
        protected override void WndProc(ref Message m)
        {
            base.WndProc(ref m);

            // check if we got a hot key pressed.
            if (m.Msg == WM_HOTKEY)
            {
                // get the keys.
                Keys key = (Keys)(((int)m.LParam >> 16) & 0xFFFF);
                ModifierKeys modifier = (ModifierKeys)((int)m.LParam & 0xFFFF);

                // invoke the event to notify the parent.
                if (KeyPressed != null)
                    KeyPressed(this, new KeyPressedEventArgs(modifier, key));
            }
        }

        public event EventHandler<KeyPressedEventArgs> KeyPressed;

        #region IDisposable Members

        };
    }

to use (i had to edit the modifier keys to cast them (modifier)1 (modifier)2 etc

public partial  class Form1 : Form
{
    KeyboardHook hook = new KeyboardHook();

    public Form1()
    {
        InitializeComponent();

        // register the event that is fired after the key press.
        hook.KeyPressed +=
            new EventHandler<KeyPressedEventArgs>(hook_KeyPressed);
        // register the control + alt + F12 combination as hot key.
        hook.RegisterHotKey(ModifierKeys.Control | ModifierKeys.Alt,
            Keys.F12);
    }

    void hook_KeyPressed(object sender, KeyPressedEventArgs e)
    {
        // show the keys pressed in a label.
        label1.Text = e.Modifier.ToString() + " + " + e.Key.ToString();
    }
}


I took the answer from AaronLS and rewrote it a bit for a simple one-liner registration.

The Registration:

GlobalHotKey.RegisterHotKey("Alt + Shift + S", () => DoSomething());

The Class:

using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.Runtime.InteropServices;
using System.Windows.Input;

    public static bool RegisterHotKey(string aKeyGestureString, Action aAction)
    {
        var c = new KeyGestureConverter();

        return RegisterHotKey(aKeyGesture.Modifiers, aKeyGesture.Key, aAction);
    }

    public static bool RegisterHotKey(ModifierKeys aModifier, Key aKey, Action aAction)
    {

        }
        if (aAction is null)
        {
            throw new ArgumentNullException(nameof(aAction));
        }

        System.Windows.Forms.Keys aVirtualKeyCode = (System.Windows.Forms.Keys)KeyInterop.VirtualKeyFromKey(aKey);

  2. Add call to AddGlobalHotkeySupport() into initialization stage of your application.
