KEY_STATE_FLAGS (Windows CE 5.0)
This data type contains flags for keyboard events and the SHIFT state.
typedef UINT32 KEY_STATE_FLAGS;
Remarks
The low-order bits keep track of a key state. This enables you to use 256 UINT8s for the key state array. The upper bits keep track of SHIFT state on a key-by-key basis. The PFN_KEYBD_DRIVER_VKEY_TO_UNICODE function sets the CTRL, ALT, SHIFT and CAPS LOCK flags to encapsulate the SHIFT state when the character was generated.
The following table shows the defined KEY_STATE_FLAGS.
