Hello,
Thanks, that half-solved my problem :-)
In fact i'm doing
SetSystemUIMode(kUIModeContentHidden,
kUIOptionDisableProcessSwitch
| kUIOptionDisableForceQuit);
like it's said on the technote about kiosk, but the problem if that I
still don't get the event on my window :'(
In fact this function seems to affect the behaviour of the special
keystrokes, but does not affect their privileged ownership, and still
catch the event with a very high priority..
Regards,
JuL
Hello...
You might want to do a search for "kiosk" in the various places to
search for info, since that topic covers similar issues to the ones
you are facing.
I'm pretty sure there was an official technote about kiosks, as well
as some sample code. If you go to http://developer.apple.com and do a
search it should pull it up.
Also, blocking special key combinations is likely a frequent topic on
the mac-games-dev mailing list, so you might also want to check that
list's archive as well.
Hope that helps,
Louis
Hello,
For making a vnc-like app, I would like to record all keystrokes. To
do this, I created a window and implemented the sendEvent: method.
Everything works fine, except for very special keystrokes like
command-tab or command-alt-esc.
I have conducted some research and found out that these keystrokes
are reserved by the system using private functions such as
CPSRegisterForKey, etc..
So, as you may have guessed, my problem is to find a solution to get
these special key events. I have read that you have to kill the Dock
and quickly register the key combo with the private function, but
that is not a good solution and this only works for cmd-tab.
In a lot of games, the cmd-tab does not work and they surely do not
kill the dock. So, surely there must be a good way to do that.
Thanks for your help !
Julien
