JNativeHook Post a native key event


I tried to post a new native key pressing to the system using the java library https://github.com/kwhat/jnativehook. The method

GlobalScreen.postNativeEvent();

Needs to get passed a NativeInputEvent object, which needs the Parameters

Based on the documentation I can't figure out what the required parameters are and how to for example initialize a new GlobalScreen object. (https://github.com/kwhat/jnativehook/blob/master/src/java/org/jnativehook/NativeInputEvent.java)

Thanks for answers in advance!


Solution

  • With the help of the developer I solved the question. To post media key events to the system using jnativehook you can use the following code:

    public static void MediaKeyForward(){
        GlobalScreen.postNativeEvent(new NativeKeyEvent(2401,0,176,57369,org.jnativehook.keyboard.NativeKeyEvent.CHAR_UNDEFINED));
    
    }
    public static void MediaKeyBack(){
        GlobalScreen.postNativeEvent(new NativeKeyEvent(2401,0,177,57360,org.jnativehook.keyboard.NativeKeyEvent.CHAR_UNDEFINED));
    
    }
    public static void MediaKeyPause(){
     GlobalScreen.postNativeEvent(new NativeKeyEvent(2401,0,179,57378,org.jnativehook.keyboard.NativeKeyEvent.CHAR_UNDEFINED));
    
    }
