[Win32Lib Update]
I've made too many changes to Win32Lib to confidantly post an update; I'll
send it to Robert after I get a chance to hammer on it a bit.
[Mouse Events]
I'm in the process of adding more mouse events to Win32Lib. At this point,
I'm contemplating taking a different approach than VB, and creating the
following mouse event trap:
onMouseButton( event, button, x, y, flags )
Possible values are:
Events:
MOUSE_MOVE
BUTTON_DOWN
BUTTON_UP
DOUBLE_CLICK
Buttons:
LEFT_BUTTON
RIGHT_BUTTON
MIDDLE_BUTTON
Flags:
SHIFT_FLAG
CTRL_FLAG
The following code would be impacted:
onDoubleClick eliminated
onRightClick eliminated
onClick {x,y} dropped as parameters
If there is really a lot of overhead associated with polling the routine on
each mouse move, I could always add a mouseEvents() type routine to ignore
certain events.
Comments?
