[win32 GDI]Remind me... Looking for ENTER
Author
I have gone brain dead or something. I need help!
I need to know when someone has entered a new value in an Edit Box and hit return.
I'm doing this in my message loop, but its wrong! I used to know this... once!
Any help appreciated
:)
I cannot remember if edit controls support the NM_RETURN notification but if they dont then you will need to subclass the edit control.
If I recall correctly when you press enter the default behavior is for the edit control to look for a button with the BS_DEFPUSHBUTTON style and simulate a click of that. You can override this by specifying ES_WANTRETURN. So, assuming your UI is simple enough you can just put the edit handler code in the button handler and skip all the complicated stuff like subclassing. I could be misrembering, it's been a long time.
And to nitpick, this topic has 100% completely nothing to do with GDI...

How about the EN_CHANGE message, sent using the WM_COMMAND message. OK, it doesn't respond to a return but will be sent whenever the text changes.
