New Mois keymap

Hi sorry if exsist a topic like this but i don't found it

now my problem I have a Germen Keybord but the Mois only support englisch key bords an i have allredy changet the keycodes in the ois

but if i would like start the wraper projekt it throw out a error

and now my questen can me anyone help with the wrapper?
or can me any one give a workabel germankeybord mois wrapper?

thans for any help

Wasi

ps: i know my English are very terribel

Nice that you want to make MOIS usable for German keyboards
If the code is ready / working I would add it to the wiki.

With the problem itself I can't help you.
If after one week comes no answer, you can Bekas. He is the author of MOIS and a real professional. (but he has only less time)

It seems that Keyboard.GetAsString returns the localized version, e.g. instead of ';' it returns 'ö'.

Unfortunately, it's sometimes a bit too verbose ('ZIRKUMFLEX' and '1 (ZEHNERTASTATUR)') and I don't know a way to get the correct symbol if a modifier key is pressed (without hardcoding every possible combination for every possible keyboard layout).

I think this is a question for a forum of C# specialists.
But english ones I don't know. Look out for it ...

I couldn't find a managed way, so:

namespace Helper
{
using System;
using System.Runtime.InteropServices;
using System.Text;
using System.Windows.Forms;

public static class Keyboard
{
public static string GetPressedKey()
{
string s = string.Empty;

foreach (int i in Enum.GetValues(typeof(Keys)))
{
if (GetAsyncKeyState(i) == -32767)
{
string c = ConvertVKToUnicode(i);
s += c;
}
}

return s;
}

[DllImport("user32.dll")]
private static extern short GetAsyncKeyState(int key);

[DllImport("user32.dll")]
private static extern int MapVirtualKeyW(int code, int mapType);

[DllImport("user32.dll")]
private static extern bool GetKeyboardState(byte[] keyState);

[DllImport("user32.dll", CharSet = CharSet.Unicode)]
private static extern int ToUnicode(
int virtKey,
int scanCode,
byte[] keyState,
StringBuilder buff,
int buffs,
uint flags);

private static string ConvertVKToUnicode(int vk)
{
byte[] keyState = new byte[256];
GetKeyboardState(keyState);

int sca = MapVirtualKeyW(vk, 0);
if (sca != 0)
{
StringBuilder sb = new StringBuilder();

int rc = ToUnicode(vk, sca, keyState, sb, sb.Capacity, 0);

if (rc == 1)
{
return sb.ToString();
}
}

return string.Empty;
}
}
}

I'm not shure how to use the last code.
Is it needed for compiling MOIS or is it needed to include it to the target application?
I never used MOIS, so I don't know much about.
But I want to discuss it, because it could be helpful for other users and want to add the information to the wiki.

By the way - what happens with MOIS when a German push a German key (e.g. Ä or ß)?
Does the application get the Char of the "english" keyboard?

The linked code seems to be useful. It uses the current system settings to create a Char from the key number.
But the author writes, it doesn't work e.g. for capital letters. What is the output for capital inputs? Just the small letter? Or 2 inputs (shift + small letter)?
Maybe somewhere is an improved code, based on the source in the blog.
Maybe there is a solution in the OIS forum.

This key mapping problem is related to many users (with non english keyboard). So I suppose there can still be a good solution.

The code doesn't use Mois.
If a key is pressed, you just call Keyboard.GetPressedKey() and it returns the key combination as string.
Works for modifier + key combinations (e.g. shift + letter, shift + number, altgr + whatever), but it doesn't work for dead keys (e.g. 'Zirkumflex' on a German keyboard).

By the way - what happens with MOIS when a German push a German key (e.g. Ä or ß)?
For ä, you'll get the keycode 'KC_APOSTROPHE', which get's translated back correctly when you use it in Mois.Keyboard.GetAsString(). However, this doesn't work for combinations.
