Mouse Input

[Mr.Begebies]

I'm confused on how to exactly read mouse input using console functions. Can anyone give a brief example?

Thanks.

I doubt you can even read mouse input using console functions but I could be wrong.

[Mr.Begebies]

I figured out how to do it in opengl. Heres the code for anyone who has a similar question:

code:

LRESULT CALLBACK WndProc (HWND hWnd, UINT message,                           WPARAM wParam, LPARAM lParam) {     switch (message)     {     case WM_CREATE:         return 0;     case WM_CLOSE:         PostQuitMessage (0);         return 0;     case WM_DESTROY:         return 0;             //***Monitors mouse click***     //Ex: WM_LBUTTONDOWN            case WM_MOUSEWHEEL:         //*Actions go here*         return 0;    //***     case WM_KEYDOWN:         switch (wParam)         {         case VK_ESCAPE:             PostQuitMessage(0);             return 0;         }         return 0;     default:         return DefWindowProc (hWnd, message, wParam, lParam);     } }

This function is found near the bottom of your opengl file, you just need to add the part in the commented area. As for 'WM_MOUSEWHEEL' part, thats just the code indicating the mouse event.

A good website, and really, the only website to find a full documentation of C++ and opengl commands, is at http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/

you can get mouse input in console but you need speicale lib file. i think one comes with the borad land comiplers.
