C# :: How To Add Keyboard And Button Press To A Program

Apr 13, 2014

I have a problem where I need to add the ability to input numbers into a calculator program through either a form button press or keyboard press. I have the button press working fine though I can't seem to get the program to start with the cursor active in the textbox for keyboard input. I've use this.ActiveControl = result; "result" being the textbox. Though the issue here is the program starts off with the cursor active but only for the first instance of keyboard inputs.

Perhaps its the way I wrote the program but is there a way I can achieve this? I found a way to write this calc by having a single event for all button presses, opposed from an event for 1-9. Not sure if this is a good approach but here is some of the code.

private double num = 0;
private string calculate;
bool pressed = false;
private void button_Click(object sender, EventArgs e) {
if ((result.Text == "0")||(pressed == true)) {

[Code] ....

C++ :: System (PAUSE) Without Message Or Button Press

Nov 7, 2013

I would like to have my program pause at a certain screen but not to have the "Press any key to continue..." message or the press of a button. In my program, the code looks similar to this:

for(;;)
{
cout
cin
cout
cin
...
//

here, I want to have a pause to view what the for loop has come up with but to not have a message display or a button press needed. At the end of the loop, I want it to pause before looping again. IS this possible?

If so, how can I implement it into my program?

Visual C++ :: Blocking Keyboard Play / Pause Button In Windows 8?

Mar 27, 2014

I am writing an application that needs to temporarily disable the Play/Pause button that appears on multimedia keyboards.

Normally, a key can be blocked quite easily by installing a low level keyboard hook (WH_KEYBOARD_LL) where the KeyboardProc intercepts the key (in this case VK_MEDIA_PLAY_PAUSE) and returns a "1" instead of calling CallNextHookEx. I have tried this with other keys (including the Windows key VK_LWIN) and this works perfectly. I also have no problems with this method under Windows 7 where all keys, including VK_MEDIA_PLAY_PAUSE get blocked.

Windows 8 is a different story. When my application has input focus, everything works as expected, meaning the VK_MEDIA_PLAY_PAUSE key gets blocked and no other application responds to it. However, when my application loses focus, my hook procedure gets called (this was verified by sending out a OutputDebugString) but other applications respond to key even though I return a "1". As soon as my app gets focus again, everything is block as it should.

After some investigation, I found that the multimedia keys not only generate keystrokes but also generate WM_APPCOMMAND messages so I added ShellProc (WH_SHELL) hook with the following hook procedure:

LRESULT __declspec(dllexport)__stdcall CALLBACK ShellProc(int nCode,WPARAM wParam,LPARAM lParam) {
// Do we have to handle this message?
if (nCode == HSHELL_APPCOMMAND) {
OutputDebugStringX(">>>>> HSHELL_APPCOMMAND");

[code]....

This procedure is only getting called when my app has input focus. Whenever I have input focus and return "1" the Play/Pause command gets blocked. As soon as I lose focus the procedure does not get called/hooked.

As I have mentioned, the code works for other keys, just not the multimedia keys.

Alternatively, another way of blocking the multimedia keyboards Play/Pause button?

C/C++ :: Program Skips To Press Any Key

C++ :: Program To Allow A User To Input A Number From Keyboard That Involves Loop Not Working Right?

Mar 30, 2014

I'm trying to write a C++ program that will allow a user to input a number from the keyboard. Then using a loop, that will perform 10 times, multiply the entered number by the loop counter. Print out the loop counter, the entered number and the product of the loop counter and the entered number. A one-time heading should be displayed before information is printed.

This kinda of what I have so far:

#include <iosteam>
using namespace std;
int main () {
Start
Declare: numScores, sum, score, avg, SENTINEL = 200
numScores = 0

[Code] ....

All the programs I have tried to make are not working?

C/C++ :: Program That Read A Number From Keyboard And Print Separated Digits To Screen

Feb 18, 2015

Basically this is what i need to do. Write a program that reads a number from the keyboard, separates it into its individual digits and prints the digits to screen, each on its own line followed by the same number of stars as itself.

For example, if the number is 2339 the program should print

9 *********
3 ***
3 ***
2 **

So far i have managed to separate the number and have them on different lines, but how to implement the stars onto each line with the number!

My code so far:

int main() {
int n;
printf("number? ");
scanf("%d", &n);
while (n > 0) {
printf("
%d

C++ :: SDL Key Press Delay

Jan 3, 2014

When you press a key it automatically delays a bit then starts repeating without delay.

The second key pressed action comes with a delay and i want it to start repeating without delay. And could not find anything useful.

I might not be able to tell what i want exactly. Ok press simply a key and don't release it in a text editor. You will realize a delay at second character showing up.

C++ :: Stopping Codes With A Key Press

Feb 25, 2013

I have a program that I made, which does a list of stuff, then checks if a key is pressed, and if it's pressed, stop the looping.

The problem is, it checks if the key is pressed once a loop, which means that if the list has delays, you have to hold the button down for a while (depending on the list).

Here's an example:
Move mouse;
Pause program for 2 seconds;
Move mouse;
Pause program for 2 seconds;
Check if key is pressed;

What ways can I fix this problem?

C++ :: Detect Arrow Key Press For Linux Only

May 13, 2012

I'm trying to implement this on ubuntu, to compile and run only under ubuntu.

I found 100s of other attempts at answering the general question of arrow key press in c++. Nothing solid.

Some recommend using the Readline for the functionality I am trying to implement, but I need to stay clear of GNU licences if I can for this project. And some tips only work on projects for windows machines... for example the conio library.

For linux there may be the option of using the ncurses library which I will take a look at, but I am stubborn and want to implement this myself. It should be an easy straight forward thing to do, which is why I am a bit frustrated at the moment.

Here is my test code so far.

#include <iostream>
#include <sstream>
#include <stdio.h>
#include <string.h>
#include <termios.h>
#include <unistd.h>
using namespace std;
int main(void) {
char a;
stringstream ss;
string s;

[Code] ....

So! This works... 80% of the problem is solved. If you compile this, g++ under linux, ubuntu in my case, and run. Each keystroke reveals the correct key numbers.

q=113
w=119

when I click on the up key I get,

up = 279165

I thought, I can use this number is a if(int == '279165') to detect the up key.

I was not so lucky... this int is not behaving like an int!

So I modified the code to see it I could carry out an int operation on this number.

I added a 100000 to int i.

cout<< i + 100000;

Code:
#include <iostream>
#include <sstream>
#include <stdio.h>
#include <string.h>
#include <termios.h>
#include <unistd.h>
using namespace std;
int main(void) {
char a;
stringstream ss;
string s;

[Code] .....

Compiling and running this, and pressing the UP key gives the following number.

100027100091100065

Some some sort of array, something like, [27][91][65].

I tried all ways to access these individual numbers, actually the third one for comparison purposes, but no luck.

For completeness sake I list the other arrows.

UP = [27][91][65]
DOWN = [27][91][66]
LEFT = [27][91][68]
RIGHT = [27][91][67]

A little further digging shows that these numbers are derived from the representation of a "multi-char" constant, the data type given when pressing special characters...

Now here is the main problem I have, I can find ANY decent documentation on how to handle and play with "multi-char" .

C++ :: User Press Space To See Next Line Of Output?

Jun 10, 2013

I have been trying to make a small program that I will be using in a larger program that will make the user press space to see the next line of output.

Not exactly sure what I'm doing wrong, but I'm pretty sure that I need to put the space that the user would enter into an output file, and the read the input file

It runs, but it doesn't allow me press space before showing the next line.

I added a getline(cin, charVar) before, but I got a whole bunch of errors.

#include <iostream>
#include <string>
#include <cctype>
#include <cstdlib>
#include <fstream>
using namespace std;
// function for dialouge
