CPU power button event RRS feed

  • Question



  • I am using Windows 7 32bit OS and want to detect the CPU power button press event in my console application
    developing in C language.

    I configured the power button setting to "Do Nothing" which is in "Choose what the power button does"
    options in Control Panel->Hardware and Sound->Power Options. So now i want to detect this power button
    press event and do some processing in my application then i will initate shut down from application itself.

    Kindly provide the windows API details which will detect the power button press event.
