Description
(Sorry for the poor code formatting. Whatever tool this is, it keeps deleting my line breaks, changing text randomly to "unknown macro", and placing curly braces in weird places. )
consider the following code:
const QMetaEnum &keyEnum = QMetaEnum::fromType<Qt::Key>();
QTextStream(stdout) << keyEnum.valueToKey(getchar()) << endl;
The only thing you do not really see in this code is that getchar() from <stdio.h> no longer waits for a newline before pushing on its integer to me. That being achieved though, I have been able to start building a curses-esque type of library. This means I can do things like
switch(ch) { case Key_Escape: endProgram(); }
As getchar() is accurately interpreted by your enumerator, even on my highly modified layout. What is missing however are the lower case letters, and my request is that they should be added so I can nicely reference them in switch statements, and for debugging purposes using
QMetaEnum.valueToKey
