C/C++ IsUserAFK

Hey

With this function you can check, if a user is afk. It´s only a simple project, you can change many thinks to make it better, f.E: the Sleep function. But i hope people will learn from it.

Code:

// coded by Inmate
#include <windows.h>
#include <iostream>

using namespace std;

bool CheckAFK(int delay, bool isAFK = false);

int main()
{

if (CheckAFK(1000)){
                    
    //Mache irgendwas...
  
}                  

getchar();

                         
}                   
      
bool CheckAFK(int delay, bool isAFK)
{
   if ( delay < 1000 ){
        
        MessageBoxA(NULL, "Bitte größere Delay Anzahl angeben." ,"Error", NULL);
        
        return 0;
   }


   int xPoint, yPoint, xPointNew, yPointNew;
   POINT position;
   
          GetCursorPos(&position);
      
          xPoint = position.x;
          yPoint = position.y;
         
          if ( xPoint == 0 || yPoint == 0 ){
        
          MessageBoxA(NULL, "Die Mauszeiger Position konnte nicht richtig gelesen werden." ,"Error", NULL);
        
          return 0;
          
          }
         
          //cout << "Y Alt: " << yPoint << "\n" << "X Alt: " << xPoint << "\n";
         
          Sleep(delay);
             
          GetCursorPos(&position);
              
          xPointNew = position.x;
          yPointNew = position.y;
         
          //cout << "Y Neu: " << yPointNew << "\n" << "X Neu: " << xPointNew << "\n";
        
          if ( xPointNew == 0 || yPointNew == 0 ){
        
          MessageBoxA(NULL, "Die Mauszeiger Position konnte nicht richtig gelesen werden." ,"Error", NULL);
        
          return 0;
          
          }
        
          if ( xPoint == xPointNew && yPoint == yPointNew){
                                   
          //cout << "User is afk\n";
              
          isAFK == true;   
              
          }else{
                  
          //cout << "User is not afk";  
          
          isAFK == false;  
                    
   }

}

You have 1 serious error:

Code:

if ( xPoint == 0 || yPoint == 0 ){
        
          MessageBoxA(NULL, "Die Mauszeiger Position konnte nicht richtig gelesen werden." ,"Error", NULL);
        
          return 0;
          
          }

If you look at the logic above, what would happen if the mouse by accident is on x = 0 or y = 0? Your program simply exits.

If you want to catch whether an error occured while fetching the mouse position with GetCursorPos, you can do something like this:

Code:

if(!GetCursorPos(position)){
//throw error/exit
}

}

how is it possible that it is called with only one parameter?????

Default parameters.

edit:

@ OP:
isAFK==false and isAFK==true won't do anything.

I thought that it was usefull when user can things like this:

if (CheckAFK(1000), false){

//Mache irgendwas...
//Do anything
}

but you´re right, in the end effect it is useless :-/

Regards

What would be the point of such program anyways?
