Madshi... do you recommend mchIPC? We are thinking about using your IPC method, currently we are using Named Pipes and they are not the most reliable... :s

Feel free to ask and I can let you remote control the machine for testing if that helps.

Hey! great work with mch3.. works very well and I highly recommend it! :wink: After much testing, i got to windows 2000 and it fails to install the driver and getlasterror returns error 2, "file not found". I try copying the files to system32 but same error.. so i use SC.exe to try and ins...

One thing is still not clear for me. I am using Win 7 64 bit. I want to hook just 32 bit processes, via a 32 bit dll and exe. I also want to hook already running 32 bit and new 32 bit processes. Do I need still a signed driver? Because my code signing certificate will not work with drivers, as far ...

Iconic... amazing tool, very impressed

You can use a .shared section in the dll, but not the best method. (edited coz i agree with madshi below - ive always done it that way)

You must include/link to madchook.lib in the project settings.

Then at the top of your project do:

#include "madChook.h"

Put the madchook.lib and .h files into your project folder.

Its more likely the other hooks you've done, especially the CreateDC hook... stop all hooks except the DocumentPropertiesW..

Also, remove the if statement, just return the next hook...

(if (strcmp(teste,"%systemroot%\system32\spoolsv.exe")) =garbage)

There is an example that comes with MCH, in the demo's folder.

Thank you, you are correct... i used a vs2008 project template for win32 dll.. and it didnt include the breaks (strange).

All works as normal now i included the breaks on each case..

Thank you again, such a simple and obvious error

Cheers!

Thanks for the reply...

Adding the break makes no difference.

Hi all.. using VS2008(VC++), basic code below, DLL is injected (can also see dll via processxp), HookAPI returns True, Callback is never triggured. System is Windows XP. Works with VC++ 6. It's probably a really basic mistake but i must be blind... any ideas? // dllmain.cpp : Defines the entry point...

The reason for the vb crash when using IPC is because VB6 does not support threads!!! Need i say more? ..use vb.net or make your own pipe receiving function and poll it.

Does the code in this thread retrieve the real dmcopies count for documents printed in ms word... no matter what i try i keep running into the ms word bug where the real dmcopies is only in the .spl file.

I dont think its hard, i think they were using your public dll but should have exported their own function with changed parameters to get it to work with copymemory... will keep you posted.

Edit: oh.. and they didnt use thread safe functions
