将应用程序带到前台进行输入后，C＃暂停

Question

I have a method that gets called into a new thread like so:

    if (!_isPlaying)
    {
        _playBackThread = new Thread(PlayMacroEvents);
        _playBackThread.Start();
        ...
    }

The method looks like:

Process proc = Process.GetProcessesByName("notepad").FirstOrDefault();
            if (proc != null)
            {
                SetForegroundWindow(proc.MainWindowHandle);
            }

            int loopCount = this.dsUserInput.Tables[0].Rows.Count;
            for (int i = 0; i < loopCount; i++)
            {
                foreach(MacroEvent macroEvent in _events)
                { 
                    Thread.Sleep(macroEvent.TimeSinceLastEvent);
                    switch (macroEvent.MacroEventType)
                    {
            ...

The problem I'm having is that if notepad is not already up (not minimized) there is enough delay between setting the foreground window and the macro output that often the first series of commands is not shown. How can I put enough of a pause to make sure that the window is up before the the macros start kicking in? A Thread.Sleep() between SetForegroundWindow() and the for loop does not seem to do the trick. Ideas?

Answer 1

使用一些api获取活动窗口，并等待直到属于记事本的窗口成为活动窗口

Answer 2

The reason the first series of inputs were being dropped is because I also had to include the command to ShowWindow like so..

in the class header:

private const int SW_RESTORE = 9;
[DllImport("user32")]
private static extern int ShowWindow(IntPtr hwnd, int nCmdShow);
...

In the macro thread method I changed

    if (proc != null)
    {
        SetForegroundWindow(proc.MainWindowHandle);
    }

to look like:

   if (proc != null)
    {

        ShowWindow(proc.MainWindowHandle, SW_RESTORE);
        SetForegroundWindow(proc.MainWindowHandle);
    }
