LPVOID lpBuffer,
DWORD nNumberOfCharsToRead,
LPDWORD lpNumberOfCharsRead,
LPVOID lpReserved
);
|
|
|
|
| FoxPro declaration: |
|
|
DECLARE INTEGER ReadConsole IN kernel32;
INTEGER hConsoleInput,;
STRING @ lpBuffer,;
INTEGER nNumberOfCharsToRead,;
INTEGER @ lpNumberOfCharsRead,;
INTEGER lpReserved
|
|
|
|
| Parameters: |
|
hConsoleInput
[in] Handle to the console input buffer.
lpBuffer
[out] Pointer to a buffer that receives the data read from the console input buffer.
nNumberOfCharsToRead

lpNumberOfCharsRead
[out] Pointer to a variable that receives the number of TCHARs actually read.

| My comment: |
|
The total size of the buffer required will be less than 64K.
Use GetStdHandle with STD_INPUT_HANDLE to obtain the handle to the console input buffer.
