typedef struct ALLEGRO_KEYBOARD_STATE ALLEGRO_KEYBOARD_STATE;
This is a structure that is used to hold a "snapshot" of a keyboard's state at a particular instant. It contains the following publically readable fields: display - points to the display that had keyboard focus at the time the state was saved. If no display was focused, this points to NULL. You cannot read the state of keys directly. Use the function al_key_down. ALLEGRO_KEY_A ... ALLEGRO_KEY_Z, ALLEGRO_KEY_0 ... ALLEGRO_KEY_9, ALLEGRO_KEY_PAD_0 ... ALLEGRO_KEY_PAD_9, ALLEGRO_KEY_F1 ...

void al_get_keyboard_state(ALLEGRO_KEYBOARD_STATE *ret_state)
Save the state of the keyboard specified at the time the function is called into the structure pointed to by RET_STATE. bool al_install_keyboard(void)
Install a keyboard driver. Returns true if successful. If a driver was already installed, nothing happens and true is returned. bool al_is_keyboard_installed(void)
Returns true if al_install_keyboard was called successfully. bool al_key_down(const ALLEGRO_KEYBOARD_STATE *state, int keycode)
Return true if the key specified was held down in the state specified. const char *al_keycode_to_name(int keycode)
Converts the given keycode to a description of the key. bool al_set_keyboard_leds(int leds)
Overrides the state of the keyboard LED indicators. Set to -1 to return to default behavior. False is returned if the current keyboard driver cannot set LED indicators. void al_uninstall_keyboard(void)
Uninstalls the active keyboard driver, if any. This will automatically unregister the keyboard event source with any event queues. This function is automatically called when Allegro is shut down. ALLEGRO_EVENT_SOURCE *al_get_keyboard_event_source(void)
Retrieve the keyboard event source. Returns NULL if the keyboard subsystem was not installed. |
