Calling Functions
March 02, 2002 07:07 PM
Hello. I was wondering if it was possible to call a function using input. Also, if it is possible could someone post an example or link me to a good site? Thank you very much.

Ok - Windows then. Do you mean hotkeys? If so look for info on AcceleratorTables. There are several messages to consider handling: WM_KEYDOWN, WM_SYSKEYDOWN, WM_KEYUP, WM_SYSKEYUP and more - and the associated key codes that go along with those. Other useful apis are GetKeyState, GetAsyncKeyState, GetKeyboardState and more. There also is Direct Input. There are several different possibilities for handling keyboard input. Sorry I can''t be more specific.

Glad to hear that you found something. The question seems so simple, but there are so many ways to approach it that I thought it would be best to through out decent keywords and such.
