Nested Class Summary

static class	Keyboard.IsKeyDown
static class	Keyboard.KeyDown
static class	Keyboard.KeyLocationX returns the horizontal position of a key on the keyboard, aligned with the number keys in row 1.
static class	Keyboard.KeyLocationY same as KeyLocationX except measures key height on the keyboard instead of left/right position.
static class	Keyboard.KeyUp
static class	Keyboard.TypeThisStringOnKeyboard

Method Summary

static double	keyIn(char key) returns fraction the key is down, 1 for all the way down, 0 for not pressed, -1 for fully pulled up (if it allows pulling the key up).
static void	keyOut(char key, double fractionDown)
static void	type(java.lang.String typeMe) the computer thinks you're really typing on the keyboard
static void	type(java.lang.String typeMe, int minMillisPerKeyDownOrUp, int maxMillisPerKeyDownOrUp)
static void	type(java.lang.String typeMe, int minMillisPerKeyDown, int maxMillisPerKeyDown, int minMillisPerKeyUp, int maxMillisPerKeyUp)

Method Detail

keyOut

public static void keyOut(char key,
                          double fractionDown)

keyIn

public static double keyIn(char key)

returns fraction the key is down, 1 for all the way down, 0 for not pressed, -1 for fully pulled up (if it allows pulling the key up). Keyboards of the future will have analog keys (and digital signal). Even in a game system as old as the Playstation2, most buttons are analog.
