KeyPress stops being detected after 15-30 seconds
« on: June 28, 2011, 08:58:44 AM »
HI. I've been posting before about the bug in 1.3 (1.2 does not have it).
I've added some logging to LinuxKeyboard.cpp and here is the output:

virtual void OIS::LinuxKeyboard::capture()
event.type == KeyPress
bool OIS::LinuxKeyboard::_injectKeyDown(KeySym, int)

virtual void OIS::LinuxKeyboard::capture()
event.type == KeyRelease
!isKeyRepeat

virtual void OIS::LinuxKeyboard::capture()
event.type == KeyPress
bool OIS::LinuxKeyboard::_injectKeyDown(KeySym, int)

virtual void OIS::LinuxKeyboard::capture()
event.type == KeyRelease
!isKeyRepeat

and so on for about 15-30 seconds.

then goes this:

virtual void OIS::LinuxKeyboard::capture()
event.type == KeyRelease
isKeyRepeat

virtual void OIS::LinuxKeyboard::capture()
event.type == KeyRelease
!isKeyRepeat

virtual void OIS::LinuxKeyboard::capture()
event.type == KeyRelease
isKeyRepeat

virtual void OIS::LinuxKeyboard::capture()
event.type == KeyRelease
!isKeyRepeat

somehow it's detected as KeyRelease & isKeyRepeat.

This output is from holding one key down? One change was the change of no longer disabling key repeat on x11 and instead try to detect it. Obviously, something is probably broken. I will try and take a look asap.

No, I was constantly pressing and then releasing a key.

In my game it wasn't hard to deal with autorepeat, so may be it's not all that important to fix it. As long as one keeps the state of the key, autorepeat doesn't matter.

Sorry, haven't had time this last week. With the holidays and some personal issues. Hope to look into the issue this week though.

This issue still relates to Fluxbox? I installed Fluxbox under Ubuntu 10 and am not seeing any obvious issues. I'm also not 100% understanding what the issue you are trying to describe is. Are you seeing a keyPress event no longer happening? or no more keyReleases?

no, this issue is not related to any wm particularly. it happens everywhere.
yes, no  more key presses.

Thanks. Your video of the problem was helpful. I'll play around with getting your app to build (though, my guess is it should also happen in the OIS demo itself) and identify the issue.

I haven't been able to reproduce this with kubuntu & your demo app. Is alt-tabbing a critical part of making the bug happen?
