In my c# application I need to detect when a user clicks one of two buttons in a different, third party application.
I am able to get the Handle of the application but the MainWindowHandle returns 0.
I tried WndProc but for some reason the event will not fire in my application.
How can I get/intercept the button click event from that application into mine?
Global system hooks allow an application to intercept Windows messages intended for other applications. This has always been difficult to implement in C#. This project on Codeplex attempts to implement global system hooks by creating a DLL wrapper in C++ that posts messages to the hooking application’s message queue. Put simply, this lets you implement any type of global Windows hook from managed code: http://www.codeproject.com/KB/system/WilsonSystemGlobalHooks.aspx
