KeyEventArgs.Key to char

问题

Is there any way to convert WPF's KeyEventArgs.Key to Char?

I tried to use KeyInterop:

var x = (Char)KeyInterop.VirtualKeyFromKey(e.Key);

For numbers and letters it works fine, but for other characters it doesn't. E.g. for OemComma it returns '1/4' instead of ','.

I need it to prevent user of inputting into TextBox any characters except numbers and separators (i.e. commas or periods).

Found this somewhere that I've forgotten. Still using it, not sure what holes it has, but it's worked as far as I know.

public static class KeyEventUtility
{
    // ReSharper disable InconsistentNaming
    public enum MapType : uint
    {
        MAPVK_VK_TO_VSC = 0x0,
        MAPVK_VSC_TO_VK = 0x1,
        MAPVK_VK_TO_CHAR = 0x2,
        MAPVK_VSC_TO_VK_EX = 0x3,
    }
    // ReSharper restore InconsistentNaming

    [DllImport( "user32.dll" )]
    public static extern int ToUnicode(
        uint wVirtKey,
        uint wScanCode,
        byte[] lpKeyState,
        [Out, MarshalAs( UnmanagedType.LPWStr, SizeParamIndex = 4 )] 
        StringBuilder pwszBuff,
        int cchBuff,
        uint wFlags );

    [DllImport( "user32.dll" )]
    public static extern bool GetKeyboardState( byte[] lpKeyState );

    [DllImport( "user32.dll" )]
    public static extern uint MapVirtualKey( uint uCode, MapType uMapType );

    public static char GetCharFromKey( Key key )
    {
        char ch = ' ';

        int virtualKey = KeyInterop.VirtualKeyFromKey( key );
        var keyboardState = new byte[256];
        GetKeyboardState( keyboardState );

        uint scanCode = MapVirtualKey( (uint)virtualKey, MapType.MAPVK_VK_TO_VSC );
        var stringBuilder = new StringBuilder( 2 );

        int result = ToUnicode( (uint)virtualKey, scanCode, keyboardState, stringBuilder, stringBuilder.Capacity, 0 );
        switch ( result )
        {
        case -1:
            break;
        case 0:
            break;
        case 1:
            {
                ch = stringBuilder[0];
                break;
            }
        default:
            {
                ch = stringBuilder[0];
                break;
            }
        }
        return ch;
    }
}

My first suggestion would be using PreviewTextInput and using the TextCompositionEventArgs. However this 'eats' the space-characters. For this 'space'-issue see:

How can I prevent input controls from stealing the space character from the TextCompositionManager?
Why does PreviewTextInput not handle spaces?

another solution would be using the KeyConverter in a KeyUp event:

  KeyConverter kc = new KeyConverter();
  var str = kc.ConvertToString(e.Key);

For WPF: https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/system.windows.input.keyconverter(v=vs.110).aspx For Winforms: https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/system.windows.forms.keysconverter.aspx

Note that KeyConverter will give you the string "Space" instead of " ". (same for "Esc" when pressing the escape key.

Another WPF solution is using this in the KeyUp event:

((char)KeyInterop.VirtualKeyFromKey(e.Key))

回答3:

Why such approach? There are different ways of preventing users from performing such input. For example, define an event-handler for the TextBox.TextChanged-event and when the input is not a decimal or a separator, revoke the input.

private void textChangedEventHandler(object sender, TextChangedEventArgs args){
//args contains a property `Changes` where you can see what happened
//check for invalid characters and revoke them
}

See TextChangedEventArgs and the event.
