Detailed Description

Base Input device class.

An input device must inherit from this class and call dispatch() in order to dispatch events to the rest of the framework.

Member Function Documentation

dispatch()

virtual void dispatch ( Event &  event )

protectedvirtual

Dispatch an event from this input.

global_input()

static Object& global_input ( )

inlinestatic

Get a reference to the global input Object.

This allows you to connect to any Event dispatched from any Input device.

Example

// receive any EventId::keyboard_down event from any Input device
Input::global_input().on_event([this](Event & event)
{
    switch (event.key().keycode)
    {
        ...
    }
}, {EventId::keyboard_down});

Member Data Documentation

m_dispatching

bool m_dispatching {false}

protected

Currently dispatching an event when true.

m_global_handler

Object m_global_handler

staticprotected

This is the single global input handler.

Anything can attach to this object and receive all events unfiltered.

This can be useful for debugging, or simply capturing any events.

m_mouse

std::unique_ptr<detail::MouseGesture> m_mouse

protected

The mouse gesture handler for this input.
