The method should be delivered in a .dll (written preferably in C, C++, or VB) and all source code should be included. The method should have the ability to unobtrusively capture the entire client/non-client area of any window within the system that is visible, partially visible, or not visible. This includes a window that is partially/fully hidden by an overlapped window or a window that is partially/fully off the screen. The capture process should not capture the contents of any window that is partially/fully blocking the target window * The only thing that is difficult here is the ability to unobtrusively capture the contents of a window that is partially/fully hidden by an overlapped window or a window that is partially/fully off the screen. This is very important so please make sure you can deliver this before placing a bid. * I must remain unobtrusive so I cannot accept a solution that would move the windows or bring them to the foreground. The solution must work with no visible interruption to the user. * Here is an article that may be of some help: http://www.fengyuan.com/article/wmprint.html Deliverables: The method should be delivered in a fully accessible .dll (written preferably in C, C++, or VB) and all source code should be included. Ideally the method will work as follows: 1. I will pass in the handle to the target window I want to capture and a handle to a device context to paint its contents into. 2. The function will paint the contents of the target window into the supplied DC and return a pass/fail. Complete and fully-functional working program(s) in executable form as well as complete source code of all work done. Complete copyrights to all work purchased.
