DesktopsEvent

Navigation: Programming with ADLX → ADLX Samples → C Samples → Receiving Events Notifications

Demonstrates how to access desktop changed handle options, add/remove call back for changed events, and perform related testing when programming with ADLX.

To receive the event, another application must be used to change these settings, such as the

Eyefinity.
