My question, before it is too late to ask: how can I as a user _document_ these system hang-ups I ch ...Show All

• JEA Another way than WH_CALLWNDPROC

  If I'm using a VC++ DLL to create a tray icon for an external application, not my own nor connected to my DLL. Is there any other way to detect mouse clicks on that tray icon other than a global hook for WH_CALLWNDPROC I've read that a global WH_CALLWNDPROC hook can be a serious drain on system resources so if at all possible I'd prefer not to use it. If it's the only way to catch the messages I want under these circumstances then I'll do it, b ...Show All
