Summary: time not set by SendInput() if 0
           Product: Wine
           Version: 1.3.1
          Platform: x86
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: user32
        AssignedTo: wine-bugs@winehq.org
        ReportedBy: jUrner@arcor.de

python test case
in my application i used to synthesize mouse events by using
user32.mouse_event(). when switching to SendInput() i got got unexpected
behviour from the target of the mouse events. digging into wines sources it
looks like SendInput does not set the "time" member of the struct if 0,
mouse_event() does. setting this member in my calls to SendInput fixed the
problem.
i guess this is a slight inconsistency that goes unnoticed most of the time. in
my case, coding an automation tool for poker sites, the target window may have
all kinds of tests in place to detect botters.
see: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms646273%28v=VS.85%29.aspx
"The time stamp for the event, in milliseconds. If this parameter is zero, the
system will provide its own time stamp. "
attatched python test case
install python 2.6 via winetricks and run >>wine c:/Python26/python.exe
testcase-SendInput-time-not-set.py
output should be:
send MOUSEEVENTF_LEFTDOWN via mouse_event()
send MOUSEEVENTF_LEFTUP via SendInput()
received WM_LBUTTONDOWN - msg.time: <any greater zero>
received WM_LBUTTONUP - msg.time: 0
