Hi,
I'm trying to use the internal Carbon API in SWT to register a Carbon
event handler for pen input (kEventTabletPointer).
This seems to work:
int shellHandle = OS.GetControlOwner(shell.handle);
int eventTarget = OS.GetWindowEventTarget(shellHandle);
OS.InstallEventHandler(eventTarget, tabletProc, mask.length/2, mask, 0,
null);
The above code installs the handler to the Shell/window.
Now I'm trying to install the handler only to a specific Control (say, a
Canvas object). Can I use the public '.handle' field in Control objects
(eg. canvas.handle) for 'OS.GetControlEventTarget' ?
The code below doesn't seem to work:
int controlTarget = OS.GetControlEventTarget(canvas.handle);
OS.InstallEventHandler(controlTarget, tabletProc, mask.length/2, mask,
0, null);
I noticed in Scrollable.java and Composite.java (parents of Canvas),
there's a private '.scrolledHandle'. Is this what I need to use instead?
Any idea?
Thanks,
stan

Googling around for kEventTabletPointer and the other constants in the same
area gives nothing useful. I couldn't find an example of how to use this
thing in any Apple doc or any other code on the Web. Assuming that the
tablet works like a mouse, you can't listen for events on a particular
control. SWT listens for mouse events for the whole application and each
top level window and dispatches them to the "right" SWT object that
represents a Macintosh control. You'll need to do something similar.
Investigate the implementation of Display.mouseProc() and friends.

My Wacom Tablet just works fine with Eclipse and SWT.
Are you trying to read the pen pressure information from the tablet?

Thanks..
I did just that, and just basically install the event handler to the
window, and find the control pointed by the mouse, and compare the
handle of that control, to the one I passed in. If not the same, return
OS.eventNotHandledErr.
Thanks very much,

Yes, and potentially other info as well..
The MacOSX Wacom driver basically sends pen events as Carbon events
(kEventTabletPointer / kEventTabletProximity).
I think it's working now, but thanks anyway.
Cheers,
