This is a helper for simplified mouse tracking modeled after the XNA C# Mouse class.
For exception safety, it is recommended you make use of the C++ RAII pattern and use a std::unique_ptr.
For universal Windows apps or Windows Store apps:
Header
#include <Mouse.h>
Initialization
Mouse is a singleton.
std::unique_ptr<Mouse> keyboard( new Mouse );Integration
For Windows desktop applications, the application needs to make the appropriate calls during the main WndProc message processing:
LRESULT CALLBACK WndProc(HWND hWnd, UINT message, WPARAM wParam, LPARAM lParam)
{
switch (message)
{
case WM_MOUSEMOVE:
case WM_LBUTTONDOWN:
case WM_LBUTTONUP:
case WM_RBUTTONDOWN:
case WM_RBUTTONUP:
case WM_MBUTTONDOWN:
case WM_MBUTTONUP:
case WM_MOUSEWHEEL:
case WM_XBUTTONDOWN:
case WM_XBUTTONUP:
Mouse::ProcessMessage(message, wParam, lParam);
break;
}
return DefWindowProc(hWnd, message, wParam, lParam);
}For universal Windows apps or Windows Store apps:
void App::SetWindow(CoreWindow^ window)
{
mouse->SetWindow(window);
}
