Constructor & Destructor Documentation

GAUGE3D::GKeyboardMessage::GKeyboardMessage ( pGObject origin, GString key, GString modified, bool down ) [inline]

Create a keyboard message with the given info. Parameters: origin   A pointer to the object which is the logical "originator" of the message. For example, most messages will originate from a GDisplay. key   The name of the key that was pressed or released. If the key has a direct ASCII translation, this should be it. Otherwise, it should be a short but unique name for the key (like "left control"). modified   This is the key with modifier keys (like shift or caps lock) applied. So, if shift is held down and the "a" key is pressed, modified should be "A", whereas key should be "a". If the key is not printable, this will be an empty sting. down   True if the key was pressed, false if released. Remarks: Please, please, if you are writing a plugin which reads input from a keyboard and sends GKeyboardMessages, please make sure to check the system keyboard map! Do NOT assume querty! I have a dvorak keyboard, so I will not use your software if you disregard this.
