How to capture window message in B3D window?

Hi guys,

Anyone knows how to capture windows message in B3D window? such as WM_INPUT.

Thank you very much

No, but I do know there is an example for it in the Blitz3DSDK examples. Poke around.

I reviewed all of the examples but there was nothing relate to capturing windows message, such as WM_PAINT, WM_COMMAND, WM_INPUT.

I want to use WM_INPUT message as RAW input for
game controller devices, such as dual light guns.

Anyone could help?

In addition, I have worked around by the information I got from this site http://jstookey.com/arcade/rawmouse/
for a week but could not solve the problem.

thank you,

Hmm. I'm not sure then... Anyone else got an idea?

You can set your function to handle window messages, and then send them to blitz3d native message handling function:

BlitzProc = SetWindowLong_(hWnd, #GWL_WNDPROC, @WindowCallBack())

Procedure WindowCallBack(hWnd.l, uMsg.l, wParam.l, lParam.l)
Select uMsg
...Your code for messages here....
EndSelect

ProcedureReturn CallWindowProc_(BlitzProc, hWnd, uMsg, wParam, lParam)
EndProcedure

SetWindowLong is WinAPI function, from user32.dll
This example in PureBasic.

That's what I was talking about. Perhaps it is not an official example then?

Thanks so much guys. I will try to implement it in VC++ then be back to tell you how it works.

That is basically a standard method used for subclassing and for some reason it does work for me in EBasic. And it's not EBasic's fault as I am using subclassing with it all the time.

Hi Guys,

I tried with B3D VC++ sample in the SDK. The problem is I cannot file window handle (hWnd) of the B3D's window to capture standard windows message - -a.

// Begin Blitz3D
bbBeginBlitz3D ();
bbGraphics3D(640,480,0,2);

Anyone could help? Thank you.

All problems is fixed, anyone interested let me know.

cheers,
