Hi,
I have a little question ?
Where can i find a little example of an HUD implementation with RenderLoop ?
Everywhere i look, this is with InputAdapterRenderLoop.

I can display Widgets but i can make them catch inputs without InputAdapterRenderLoop.

Hello,
did you register keyboard and mouse with your canvas ? This should be sufficient to get inputs into your HUD.

Code:

InputSystem.getInstance().registerNewKeyboardAndMouse(canvas.getPeer());

For other inputs you need to extend the InputAdapter class and add it to the InputSystem with the

Code:

InputSystem.getInstance().addInputListener()

method.

Yes, I'm already doing that :

Code:

this._ISystem = InputSystem.getInstance();
try
{
this._ISystem.registerNewKeyboardAndMouse( this._GCore._canvas.getPeer() );
System.out.println("Keyboard and Mouse registered");
}
catch (InputSystemException e) {System.out.println("Warning, unable to register KB and Mouse");}

this._EAdapter = new EventAdapter(this);
this._ISystem.addInputListener(this._EAdapter);

I get the events on the window but the HUD seem freezed and Frame class method onMouseButtonPressed is never called

I even tried to create a class which implements a WidgetInputListener to make that

Code:

this._GCore._GUI.addGlobalInputListener(new GUIAdapter(this));

But it was ineffective.

All my problems are solved replacing

Code:

public class GraphicsCore extends RenderLoop

by

Code:

public class GraphicsCore extends InputAdapterRenderLoop

But i read that it was a bad idea for "real" games

Please have a look at the InputAdapterRenderLoop's implementation. There are really just a few lines of code in it (apart from empty stubs).

But I guess, I know, what the problem is. Please call this method before you add the HUD to the environemnt.

Code:

InputSystem.getInstance();

It is sufficient to call this method in any way. So if you register a new keyboard and mouse, you will call this method automatically.
