Any help on Event Notification?

[joshley]

Hello!
I seem to be missing something here - how exactly do you utilise Event Notification in C#?? Perhaps a small example of how to check CurrentAudioTrack?
Cheers all

You can find most of the features available from subs PluginHelper class by examing the source code in for instance "Jukebox" and "Comics"...

In my upcoming plugin I have a method that gets the current song playing. Pasting a part of it here:

<table border="0" align="center" width="95%" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0"><tr><td>Code Sample </td></tr><tr><td id="CODE">
...
PlayList = PluginHelperFactory.getPluginHelper().GetAudioPlayList(out currentIndex, out trackDuration, out playbackPosition);

if ( PlayList != null )
{
string trackNameNow = (string)PlayList[currentIndex];
...
[/QUOTE]

Here I use the GetAudioPlaylist to get the current file playing and if I dont recieve null (no playlist active) I set the string &quot;trackNameNow&quot; with the filename from &quot;currentIndex&quot;.

But my best recommendation when it comes to music handling is to check out the Jukebox plugin. Almost everything that can be done with the audio classes ni GBPVR is found there.

If you plugin implements the IEventNotification interface, then the notify() method on you class will be called when the audio or video track changes.

ARG!!!!
Thanks for the replies people!
My temporary lack of complete stupidity resolved the problem...
I couldn't for the life of me get it to work, I thought I'd completely forgotten how to program - I'd just forgotten to declare darn (Notify()) method public. It's ALWAYS something annoyingly little that you miss, isn't it? I thought I'd gone completely mad!
Sorry about that. Ignore my post completely now.

Ok... Event Notification is all ok, but I can't figure out how to simulate keypresses (to call hotkey set up in graphics card settings)/manually shut down/restart the extended desktop. I've tried using SendKeys, but it only applies to the active Window, not to the System. If anyone has any alternatives to SendKeys, or knows the relevant System.Windows.Forms.Control for the desktop, or how to set it up, please advise!
