Bindings: C, MASM

This call registers a keyboard subsystem within a session.

KbdRegister (ModuleName, EntryPoint, FunctionMask)

ModuleName (*PSZ*) - input Address of the dynamic link module name. Maximum length is 9 bytes (including ASCIIZ terminator).

EntryPoint (PSZ) - input Address of the dynamic link entry point name of a routine that receives control when any of the registered functions are called. Maximum length is 33 bytes (including ASCIIZ terminator).

FunctionMask (ULONG) - input A bit mask where each bit identifies a keyboard function being registered. The bit values are:

rc (USHORT) - return Return code descriptions are:

Remarks

There can be only one KbdRegister call outstanding for each session without an intervening KbdDeRegister. KbdDeRegister must be issued by the same process that issued the KbdRegister.
