[C++] CBT Hook Example

Got bored of doing revision and started on a HookLib, this is an example program where I was testing using a CBT Hook.

header.h

#include "windows.h"bool SetCBTHook(DWORD, HWND);void RemoveCBTHook();

Main.cpp

#include "header.h"#define IDC_LIST 4000HINSTANCEmhInstance;HWNDmhWnd;HWNDlvhWnd;LRESULT CALLBACK WindowProc(HWND hwnd, UINT message, WPARAM wParam, LPARAM lParam){switch (message) {case WM_COMMAND: break;case WM_DESTROY:RemoveCBTHook();PostQuitMessage (0);break;default:return DefWindowProc (hwnd, message, wParam, lParam); } return 0;}BOOL RegisterClass(wchar_t szClassName[]){ WNDCLASSEX wc; wc.hInstance = mhInstance; wc.lpszClassName = (LPCWSTR)szClassName; wc.lpfnWndProc = WindowProc; wc.style = CS_DBLCLKS; wc.cbSize = sizeof (WNDCLASSEX); wc.hIcon = LoadIcon (NULL, IDI_APPLICATION); wc.hIconSm = LoadIcon (NULL, IDI_APPLICATION); wc.hCursor = LoadCursor (NULL, IDC_ARROW); wc.lpszMenuName = NULL; wc.cbClsExtra = 0; wc.cbWndExtra = 0; wc.hbrBackground = (HBRUSH) COLOR_BACKGROUND; if (!RegisterClassEx (&wc))return 0;elsereturn 1;}int WINAPI WinMain(HINSTANCE hInstance,HINSTANCE hPreviousInstance,LPSTR lpcmdline,int nCmdShow){MSG messages;mhInstance = hInstance;wchar_t ClassName[ ] = L"CBTHookClass";wchar_t WindowName[ ] = L"CBTHookWindow";RegisterClass(ClassName);mhWnd = CreateWindowEx(WS_EX_CONTROLPARENT, ClassName, WindowName, WS_OVERLAPPED | WS_CAPTION | WS_SYSMENU | WS_MINIMIZEBOX | WS_VISIBLE | WS_MAXIMIZEBOX, 0, 0, 500, 500, NULL, NULL, hInstance, NULL);lvhWnd = CreateWindow(L"LISTBOX",L"CBTHookListBox",WS_CHILD|WS_VISIBLE|WS_VSCROLL, 2,2,490,479,mhWnd, (HMENU)IDC_LIST,hInstance, NULL );SetCBTHook(GetCurrentThreadId(), mhWnd);while (GetMessage (&messages, NULL, 0, 0)) {TranslateMessage(&messages); DispatchMessage(&messages); } return 0;}

CBTHook.cpp

Its just a quick throw-together of setting a cbt hook on your window, the HookLib exports the hook function, allowing you to hook any process/the entire system.
Also note that the IsBadReadPtr is just there to ensure that the structure returned by the hook is valid, as sometimes it isnt causing the function to die.
