How to repeat a key using pspgl ?

[Edorul]

Hello,

I'm testing pspgl and I try to read PSP pad with GLUT functions, but I can't repeat a key when it's pressed.

For example with the code below, when I push X button it's add 0.2 to z value but to add again 0.2 to z it's not automatic, I need to release X and push it again, and so on so... it's very painful

void keyPressed(unsigned char key, int x, int y)
{
   switch (key) {
      case 'x':     /* cross */
         z += 0.2f;
         break;
   }
}

int main(int argc, char **argv)
{
   ....
   
   glutKeyboardFunc(&keyPressed);

   ....
}

I will be glad if someone have an idea :icon_smil

I found the reason why key repeating don't function. It's coming from pspgl itself. So I modified "glut.c" in pspgl code and it works as I want.

If it could help someone I post my modifications.

void glutMainLoop (void)
{
   if (glut_reshape_func)
      glut_reshape_func(width, height);

   sceCtrlSetSamplingCycle (0);
   sceCtrlSetSamplingMode (PSP_CTRL_MODE_ANALOG);

   do {
      if (glut_joystick_func) {
         struct SceCtrlData pad;
         sceCtrlReadBufferPositive(&pad, 1);
         glut_joystick_func (pad.Buttons,
                             (pad.Lx * 2000L) / 256 - 1000,
                             (pad.Ly * 2000L) / 256 - 1000, 0);
      }

//@@@ old part of keypad reading 
/*   while (1) {
         struct SceCtrlLatch latch;
         int i;

         sceCtrlReadLatch(&latch);

         if (latch.uiMake == 0 && latch.uiBreak == 0)
             break;

         for (i=0; i<sizeof(keycode)/sizeof(keycode[0]); i++) {
            if (latch.uiMake & (1 << i))
               key(keycode[i], 1);
            if (latch.uiBreak & (1 << i))
               key(keycode[i], 0);
         }
      };

// @@@ new part from Edorul : permit to repeat special key 
// @@@ and mouse key but not normal keys
      SceCtrlData pad;
      static unsigned int oldbuttons = 0;
      int i;
		
      sceCtrlReadBufferPositive(&pad, 1);
		
      for (i=0; i<sizeof(keycode)/sizeof(keycode[0]); i++) {
         // no key repeat if it's a normal key
         if (KEY_TYPE(keycode[i]) == KEY_TYPE_ASCII) { 
            if (!(oldbuttons & (1 << i))&&(pad.Buttons & (1 << i)))
               key(keycode[i], 1);
         }
         else
            if (pad.Buttons & (1 << i))
               key(keycode[i], 1);

         // no repeat when key released
         if (!(pad.Buttons & (1 << i))&&(oldbuttons & (1 << i))) 
            key(keycode[i], 0);
      }
		
      oldbuttons = pad.Buttons;
// @@@ end of the new part
		
      if (glut_display_func && glut_redisplay_posted) {
         glut_redisplay_posted = 0;
         glut_display_func();
      }

      if (glut_idle_func)
         glut_idle_func();
   } while (1);
