I'm working on a better way to read a text file and convert it to a VK. This is what I got: | Code: | UINT Vk(LPCWSTR lpKeyName)
{
UINT Vk = NULL;
LPCWSTR lpAppName = _T("Settings");
LPCWSTR lpDefault = _T("");
LPCWSTR lpFileName = _T(".\\Settings.TB");
DWORD nSize = 255;
wchar_t *Key = new wchar_t[nSize];
GetPrivateProfileString(lpAppName, lpKeyName, lpDefault, Key, nSize, lpFileName);
if(lstrcmp(Key, _T("Ctrl")) == 0)
Vk = VK_CONTROL;
else if(lstrcmp(Key, _T("Pg Down")) == 0)
Vk = VK_NEXT;
else if(lstrcmp(Key, _T("Pg Up")) == 0)
Vk = VK_PRIOR;
else if(lstrcmp(Key, _T("End")) == 0)
Vk = VK_END;
else if(lstrcmp(Key, _T("Del")) == 0)
Vk = VK_DELETE;
else if(lstrcmp(Key, _T("Ins")) == 0)
Vk = VK_INSERT;
else if(lstrcmp(Key, _T("Home")) == 0)
Vk = VK_HOME;
else if(lstrcmp(Key, _T("Alt")) == 0)
Vk = VK_LMENU;
else
Vk = VkKeyScan(Key);
return Vk;
} |
But I'm having problems with the last part. | Code: | Vk = VkKeyScan(Key);
'VkKeyScanW' : cannot convert parameter 1 from 'wchar_t *' to 'WCHAR' |
How do I make it into a WCHAR? I tried putting (WCHAR) before Key like this: VkKeyScan((WCHAR)Key);, but it did nothing at all.
And while I'm at it. How do I read a pointer with the value in double?
I've tried to do as I do with a 4 byte pointer: | Code: | | double Exp = *((double*)dwExpBase) + dwExpOffset); |
But that does not output anything at all. I also tried | Code: | | double Exp = *((DWORD*)dwExpBase) + dwExpOffset); |
with the same result.

Key[0] To fix the first problem.
Because Key is your string, while VkKeyScan is only looking for a single character, so you simply just point to the first value in the array.
As for the double, the base is going to be 4 bytes anyways, as will the offset, just you want to read 8 bytes instead of 4.
| Code: | | double dExp = (double)*((DWORD*)dwExpBase + dwExpOffset); |
Should work...

| Thz lurc. The Key[0] did the trick. As fot he pointer it's still the same as before. It shows a '0' instead of the actual value.
