SoftIce can trace application messages. And Olly?
And so does OllyDbg. That’s a very “hidden feature”. I guess it is sooo useful.
1. Open program
2. Names window [CTRL+N in CPU Window]
3. Find User32.TranslateMessage API
4. right click/FindReferences
5. conditional breakpoint [SHIFT+F4]
6. expression: MSG
7. Log function arguments: Always
If you cannot find it, try right click SEARCH FOR-> ALL INTERMODULAR CALLS.
But if I want to trap a specific message like WM_COMMAND?
To Log Only WM_COMMAND
Do it in this fashion:
1. Open program
2. Names window [CTRL+N in CPU Window]
3. Find User32.TranslateMessage API
4. right click/FindReferences
5. conditional breakpoint [SHIFT+F4]
6. Condtion box: MSG==WM_COMMAND
7. Log function arguments: On Condition
If you can’t find User32.TranslateMessage API, do the same as above.
