I am wondering if anyone has done anything with Windows UPS/Power management and Powerhome?

Is anyone using the WM_POWERBROADCAST message with Powerhome?

I am curious what other people are doing with UPS and Powerhome.

WM_POWERBROADCAST is a windows API broadcast message. I see stuff in the Powerhome documentation about sending windows messages to other apps (ph_sendmsg) but I didn't see anything about receiving them.

For things that use WM_COPYDATA, you could create a new trigger and set the Trigger-Type to WM_COPYDATA to receive those messages. There is also a WM_USER trigger.

WM_COPYDATA / Data Trigger
The passed-in data is available within the [TEMP5] system variable

Those commands appear to be for sending messages not receiving them. I want to be able to trigger events based apon listening to the WM_POWERBROADCAST messages.

For the record, WM_COPYDATA is for receiving copydata messages.

I think Dave needs to chime in as to if this can be done. Seems like a helper-app would be needed to listen for that message and then send to PH via a WM_COPYDATA message.
