Hi all!
I'm trying to set a mouse/keyboard hook in a C# application , but i
haven't found an API in coredll.dll which i can use.
SetWindowsHookEx seems not working.
Do you have an idea how to that ?
Thanks !!!
 
Since SetWindowsHookEx@coredll accept pointer to a function and
callbacks are not supported for CF1.0 :- it will not work for you.
 
There are also significant limits on what *sort* of hooks you can set in
Windows CE. You should tell us *why* you want to hook things and what you
plan to accomplish if you get it working...

Hi, i need to hook mouse and keyboard input, because i'm trying to
implement a screensaver for a windows ce device . The screensaver is a
part of the application, because of the specific of application.
Thanks !

You can't do that. There are no mouse hooks in Windows CE. Your target
device may have some means of detecting user activity and you might use
that, rather than hooks, to turn the screen saver on and off...
