My app will need to simulate a key being held down during some time. I don’t know how many time. Can I use the sendinput API for this?

SendInputcan trigger events withINPUTstructures includingKEYBDINPUT. AKEYBDINPUTcan specify key up and key down events using virtual keys or scan codes. So you want to useSendInputtwice: send a key down event at the beginning, and a key up event at the end.
