SetWindowsHookEx and HINSTANCE;

[Bo Hunter]

I am tring to build a keyboard hook that blocks the windows keys. It has to be in a seperate dll. The call to SetWindowsHookEx requires a HINSTANCE to the dll. How do I get an HINSTANCE to my dll with out having to use CWinApp. There is way more stuff in the CWinApp class than I would like to use.

//This works
class CTaskKeyHookDll : public CWinApp
{
public :
	CTaskKeyHookDll(){ }
	~CTaskKeyHookDll(){ }
} MyDll;



//This don't work
class CTaskKeyHookDll
{
public :
	HINSTANCE hInstance;

	CTaskKeyHookDll(){ }
	~CTaskKeyHookDll(){ }
} MyDll;

Anyone know how to do this? Thank You Bo Hunter

in your overridden DllMain() save the first parameter(HINSTANCE) to g_hInstance.
