[url=http://www.gamedev.net/community/forums/topic.asp?topic_id=543757]Lately I've been making a game engine and Windows doesn't have a clear function to set the cursor visible, or not visible. ShowCursor hurts my head, since I want to toggle the cursor visible and not visible now and then by a single command, setCursorVisible(bool visible), but alas, I cannot find any way to do this.
Help?[/url]
After two attempts, I have this non-working code.
[code] void setCursorState(bool visible)
{
CURSORINFO info;
GetCursorInfo(&info);
bool currentState = info.flags == CURSOR_SHOWING;
if(visible != currentState) // Take action only if current state is not what's needed.
ShowCursor(visible);
}[/code]
The cursor is showing, but when I call it with visible = false, it doesn't do anything. It skips the if statement.
are you debugging currentState ?
oh. if currentState == false, and visible == false. then that statement is never executed.
it thinks currentstate is false all the time
