Title: OIS as an input system
Post by: Ockonal on November 07, 2011, 11:57:00 pm

Hello, I have to include some of input system into sfml because It's not enough to catch them from main cycle but I need in callbacks for events. So I decided to use OIS in my app. Here is the code:

Code: [Select]

   OIS::ParamList params;
    std::string window = boost::lexical_cast<std::string>(mWindow->GetSystemHandle());
    // Logging of window variable shows 6-digits number

    params.insert(std::make_pair(std::string("WINDOW"), window));

    mInputSystem = OIS::InputManager::createInputSystem(params);

mWindow is pointer to the sf::RenderWindow. When running app I get:

Quote

X Error of failed request:  BadAccess (attempt to access private resource denied)
  Major opcode of failed request:  2 (X_ChangeWindowAttributes)
  Serial number of failed request:  7
  Current serial number in output stream:  9

What's wrong?

You also get the events from sfml when using PollEvent.

I don't know if you can easily use OIS and SFML's input system side-by-side. But I have written a callback system (http://www.bromeon.ch/thor/v1.1/tutorial-actions.html) on top of SFML, maybe it can help you. Or use Boost.Signals ;)
