I have CEGUI working DirectX 9. I have managed to get it to read in XML files and create a few buttons with it. The only problem I have now is getting both getting user input and proper event handling working.

I've looked through the documentation on both but I was very confused about how both of these work. I thought I had it working at one stage but it turns out I had implimented direct input instead

Could someone please show me working code on how both of these work?

It's up to you to handle input, CEGUI only has functions that allow you to "inject" that input into it. Doing this via DirectInput is fine...

Look into CEGUI::System::inject* methods

Ah, ok. Thanks.

How about event handling though? I.e getting the application to quit when I hit the exit button on the gui?

You implement a method that quits your application and then you subscribe that method to the button. How you do the quitting is again your business

Code: Select all

quitButton->subscribeEvent(CEGUI::PushButton::EventClicked, CEGUI::Event::Subscriber(&YourClass::handle_Quit, theClassInstance));

HTH
