Recently I had to study about hooks. I got the hooks working but while reviewing it I wondered when does it come into the picture. Does it come into picture when
- System message queue passes to winProc of the process?
- When a message is received by GUI thread message queue of application?
I tried to make both flows. it will be great if anyone can validate my understanding.
One additional question.
I was able to implement global hooks but I tried hard for process-specific hooks. I couldn't. I tried researching the internet, I got not a single project which implemented thread-specific hooks. I found How to hook this answer which says it's not possible but I didn't find any explanation anywhere. Can somebody throw light on this?
