This call registers a mouse subsystem within a session.

Syntax

MouRegister (ModuleName, EntryName, Mask)

Parameters

ModuleName (PSZ) - input 
Address of the dynamic link module name. The maximum length is 9 bytes (including ASCIIZ terminator).
EntryName (PSZ) - input 
Address of the dynamic link entry point name of a routine that receives control when any of the registered functions are called. The maximum length is 33 bytes (including ASCIIZ terminator).
Mask (ULONG) - input 
A mask of bits, where each bit set to 1 identifies a mouse function being registered. Bit values are:
 Bit        Description 
31-22     Reserved, set to zero
21        MouSetDevStatus
20        MouFlushQue
19        MouInitReal
18        MouSetPtrPos
17        MouGetPtrPos
16        MouRemovePtr
15        MouDrawPtr
14        MouSetPtrShape
13        MouGetPtrShape
12        MouClose
11        MouOpen
10        Reserved
9        Reserved
8        MouSetEventMask
7        MouSetScaleFact
6        MouGetEventMask
5        MouGetScaleFact
4        MouReadEventQue
3        MouGetNumQueEl
2        MouGetDevStatus
1        MouGetNumMickeys
0        MouGetNumButtons

Return Code

rc (USHORT) - return
Return code descriptions are:
  • 0 NO_ERROR
  • 385 ERROR_MOUSE_NO_DEVICE
  • 413 ERROR_MOUSE_INVALID_ASCIIZ
  • 414 ERROR_MOUSE_INVALID_MASK
  • 415 ERROR_MOUSE_REGISTER
  • 466 ERROR_MOU_DETACHED
  • 505 ERROR_MOU_EXTENDED_SG

Remarks

The Base Mouse Subsystem is the default mouse subsystem. There can be only one MouRegister outstanding for each session without an intervening MouDeRegister. MouDeRegister must be issued by the same process that issued MouRegister.

When any registered function is called, control is routed to EntryName. When this routine is entered, four additional values are pushed onto the stack. The first is the index number (Word) of the function being called. The second is a near pointer (Word). The third is the caller's DS register (Word). The fourth is the return address (DWord) to the mouse router. For example, if MouGetNumMickeys were called and control routed to EntryName, the stack would appear as if the following instructions were executed:

PUSH@ WORD    NumberOfMickeys
PUSH  WORD    DeviceHandle
CALL  FAR     MouGetNumMickeys
PUSH  WORD    Function Code
CALL  NEAR    Entry point in Mouse Router
PUSH  DS
CALL  FAR     EntryName.

When a registered function returns to the Mouse Router, AX is interpreted as follows:

AX = 0    No error. Do not invoke the Base Mouse Subsystem routine. Return AX = 0.
AX = -1   Invoke the BaseMouse Subsystem routine. Return AX = return code from the Base Mouse Subsystem.
AX = error (if not 0 or -1) Do not invoke the Base Mouse Subsystem Routine. Return AX = error.

When the mouse router receives a mouse call, it routes it to the Base Mouse Subsystem unless an application or other mouse subsystem has previously issued MouRegister for that call. If the call was registered, the subsystem is entered at the EntryName specified, and provided with the applicable function code.

The registered function mask is used to determine whether a requested function is performed by the registered mouse subsystem or default to the Base Mouse Subsystem.

The following list shows the relationship of the mouse API calls and the Function Code passed to either the Base Mouse Subsystem or a registered mouse subsystem.

MOU API calls    Function Code 
MouGetNumButtons 00H
MouGetNumMickeys 01H
MouGetDevStatus  02H
MouGetNumQueEl   03H
MouReadEventQue  03H
MouGetScaleFact  05H
MouGetEventMask  06H
MouSetScaleFact  07H
MouSetEventMask  08H 
Reserved         09H
Reserved         0AH
MouOpen          0BH
MouClose         0CH
MouGetPtrShape   0DH
MouSetPtrShape   0EH
MouDrawPtr       0FH
MouRemovePtr     10H
MouGetPtrPos     11H
MouSetPtrPos     12H
MouInitReal      13H
MouFlushQue      14H
MouSetDevStatus  15H

A registered mouse sybsystem must leave the stack, on exit, in the exact state it was received.
