probloms with keys...
hello all
i am trying to make a program which needs to get some informashion
by pressing some keys on the keyboard.
some of them i found like VK_UP but i cant find the '+' and '-' but the ones which are near the ')' and they are above 'p'
can anyone help me with this?
thanks in advance
If you look in your standard include directory you should have a file named "winuser.h", that will list all of the defined virtual key codes. For keys like the standard alphanumeric ones ('A', 'B', '0', '1' etc) you would use something like:
Hope that helps you [smile].
static_cast<int>('KEY NAME GOES IN HERE')
So to use the '+' and '-' keys (on my english keyboard) I would use:// '+' keystatic_cast<int>('+')// '-' keystatic_cast<int>('-')
As the codes are just their ASCII equivalent, you could go to a site such as www.lookuptables.com and just find the actual numeric code for that key and use that, e.g:// '+' key = 43 decimal// '-' key = 45 decimal
Hope that helps you [smile].
