I have a little program where I want to intercept a couple of keyDown
Event's and do some things base on them. Basically I "cheated" and did the
following:
void AppEventLoop(void)
{
UInt16 error;
EventType event;
do
{
EvtGetEvent(&event,evtWaitForever);
if(event.etype==keyDown && event.data.keyDown.chr >= hard1Chr)
event.etype=firstUserEvent;
if(!SysHandleEvent(&event) &&
!MenuHandleEvent(0,&event,&error) &&
!AppHandleEvent(&event))
FrmDispatchEvent(&event);
}
while(event.eType!=appStopEvent);
}
in my form handler, I look for fistUserEvent and do what I want.
my problem is that in my code, I opened up an frmCustomAlert to put up some
debug info. What happens is that I press hard1Chr key, I get the pop up,
and then I switch right to the application that is associated with that key
(I forget now if it switches right away or if it switches after I hit the
"ok" button, but I know I get at least the pop up to "flash on the screen").
If I do not have the pop up everything works. Since the alerts have their
own AppEventLoop (or at least I think they do), they get they keyDown event
and do what they are suppose to do. My question is
is the alert getting the "same" keyDown event or is there a 2nd one being
generated?
