Question by moha · Apr 15, 2013 at 03:03 PM · windowsdllkeyboard

issues using system.windows.form.sendkeys

hello every one,

i'm trying to create a tactile keyboard for an application running on a windows 8 tactil tablet. To emulate the keyboard, i'm using the dll system.windows.form:

System.Windows.Forms.SendKeys.Send("keycode");

while running in the editor everything goes well. but once i give a try after a build, i got those errors in the output log file:

InvalidOperationException: SendKeys cannot run inside this application because the application is not handling Windows messages.

if anyone got an idea to help me. every thing is welcomed. if you need more details, just ask :)

thx.

If i run the application, will this input simulator generate keycode signals for another application?

Eg: I have textPad open and I run this exe file. Now will the stuff I type in the simulator get typed on the textPad??
