registering mouse clicks via keyboard
Author
Used C code to plot vertices for primitives, ie lines, rectangles. Joined primitives using glBegin(GL_LINES) etc of opengl. Can display primitives in sequence and reverse with mouse clicks but would like to display primitives sequentially and randomly via the keyboard ''s'' and ''r'' keys respectively. Can select s and r keyboard presses in keyboard process function but can''t figure out how to send the mouse clicks via the keys selected. I know that keyboard and mouse process functions both have mouse-x and mouse-y coordinates as arguments but I can''t figure out a solution. Any help appreciated.

Thanks for your post. Don''t understand your code. Mine was written in C using Visual C++ 6.0. Here is a bit of my code:
void keyBoardProcess(unsigned char key, int mouseX, int mouseY)
{
GLint x = mouseX;
GLint y = 1000 - mouseY;
int counter = 0;
switch(key) {
case ''e'': case ''E'':
exit(-1);
break;
case ''r'':
createGLUTMenus();
break;
case ''s'':
glutMouseFunc(mouseProcess);
counter++;
sequential(counter);
prev_Scene(counter);
counter--;
break;
default:
break;
}
}
void keyBoardProcess(unsigned char key, int mouseX, int mouseY)
{
GLint x = mouseX;
GLint y = 1000 - mouseY;
int counter = 0;
switch(key) {
case ''e'': case ''E'':
exit(-1);
break;
case ''r'':
createGLUTMenus();
break;
case ''s'':
glutMouseFunc(mouseProcess);
counter++;
sequential(counter);
prev_Scene(counter);
counter--;
break;
default:
break;
}
}

It's not his code. Go to C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio\VC98\Include and open the winuser.h file. Overlord was refering to the VK_LBUTTON, VK_RBUTTON, and VK_MBUTTON definitions.
VK_LBUTTON = Left Mouse Button
VK_RBUTTON = Right Mouse Button
VK_MBUTTON = Middle Mouse Button

Thanks for the explanation. How can I apply those button definitions to display my primitives by pressing r or s keys of keyboard then clicking the mouse?

I hope you realize that if you use anything from winuser.h, your program will be Windows-specific (shame on you, lc_overlord, for just assuming Windows).

I know, but the for the lack of a better more unified way of doing these thing''s in, i allways assume windows, since most users use it.
Personaly i try to write my code non OS specific, save for the display init code and keyboard/mouse handeling, but those are contained inside one file so it is easy to port.
But if anone(or will i have to) creates a project called OpenSL(open system layer) that contain''s all these things we need, i''ll be the first one to switch to that system(and if you think SDL, then think again).

How do you read your keys?
What os(or API) are you using?

Using GLUT callback functions. glutKeyboardFunc() for keyboard and glutMouseFunc for mouse.
processKeyboard(unsigned char key, int x, int y)
{
..........
switch(key) {
case 'r': // if press key r
random(r, 0); // random() needs an integer also.
break;
case 's':
sequential(s, 0); // for sequential mode
break;
}
}
// trying to select between random and sequential mode. Key r or key s should be pressed to select random or sequential mode before mouse clicks. let mouse clicks call random func and send 1 for Scene1, 2 for Scene2 etc. mouse will have to send a char also as required by random().
random(char pass, int data)
{
char k = pass;
if(k == r) {
// idea is if got r from keyboard, enter switch. but char from mouse will change pass and k and deny access to switch. if mouse click sends r keyboard can be bypassed.
switch(data) {
case 1:
drawScene(Scene1); // Scene1 global variable
case 2:
drawScene(Scene2);
...........
}
}
}

Found the answer by placing glutMouseFunc() under the keyboard''s ''s'' key for sequential and under the Keyboard''s ''r'' key for random. glutMouseFunc() was therefore removed from function main(). This placed the mouse process function under the control of the keyboard ''s'' and ''r'' keys.
