Event KeyPressed and KeyReleased on KeyPress [Solved]

[Gobbles]

Hey guys, wondering if you guys could help me test something real quick. With the following code whenever I issue a keyboard keyPress, the key fires off both a key press and a key release:

(click to show/hide)

#include <SFML/Window.hpp>
#include <iostream>

int main()
{
    sf::Window window(sf::VideoMode(800, 600), "My window");
        window.setKeyRepeatEnabled(false);
    // run the program as long as the window is open
    while (window.isOpen())
    {
        // check all the window's events that were triggered since the last iteration of the loop
        sf::Event event;
        while (window.pollEvent(event))
        {
            // "close requested" event: we close the window
            if (event.type == sf::Event::Closed)
                window.close();

                        switch(event.type)
                        {
                                case sf::Event::KeyPressed:
                                {
                                        if(event.key.code == sf::Keyboard::W)
                                        {
                                                std::cout << "\n\nKeyPressed";
                                        }
                                }
                                case sf::Event::KeyReleased:
                                {
                                        if(event.key.code == sf::Keyboard::W)
                                        {
                                                //window.close();
                                                //break;
                                                std::cout << "\nKeyReleased";
                                        }
                                }
                        }
        }
    }

    return 0;
}
 

You can view my test results here:


Just the output from the code above, as you can see, every keypress fires off a KeyPressed and a keyReleased

This is keyboard only as joystick works fine.

Any info would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

You need to put break in your switch.

Holy... crap. Well that's what I get for over analyzing. Thanks for the quick reply! I knew it had to be something relatively stupid (I might be burning the candle at both ends)

Tip for the future: Always try a debugger for "simple" problems like this.  You probably would've noticed the problem as soon as you stepped through that switch statement.

I always use a debugger, I stepped through the code, but for some reason my brain didn't pick it up. Sometimes you just need the second pair of eyes I guess.
