EventReceiver: Strange Mouse-Problem

[Lo_Ord]

Hi!

I'm trying to program a small Level-Editor for a game, and I'm stuck right now with a small problem.

I've implimented an "own" camera ("Own" because it's pretty much the Maya-Cam from Irrlicht)

The important section for me is the following:

Code: Select all

bool CameraEditorSceneNode::OnEvent(SEvent event)
{
	if (event.EventType = irr::EET_MOUSE_INPUT_EVENT)
	{
		switch(event.MouseInput.Event)
		{
			case EMIE_LMOUSE_PRESSED_DOWN:
				MouseKeys[0] = true;
				break;
		        case EMIE_LMOUSE_LEFT_UP:
				MouseKeys[0] = false;
				break;
		}
	return false;
	}
}

That's the part that I thought it might be useful, so I copied it into my Eventreceiver, it just controlls if the MouseButton is pressed. If so, the variable "selected" is set to "true", elso to false:

Code: Select all

bool IrrlichtManager::OnEvent(irr::SEvent event)
{
	if (event.EventType = irr::EET_MOUSE_INPUT_EVENT)
	{
		switch(event.MouseInput.Event)
		{
		case(irr::EMIE_LMOUSE_PRESSED_DOWN):
			this->selected = true;
			break;
		case(irr::EMIE_LMOUSE_LEFT_UP):
			this->selected = false;
			break;
		}	
		
	}
	return false;
};

So far, so good, but there's one small problem:
The whole thing works fine in the Camera-Scenenode (else the camera wouldn't work at all ^^), but when it comes to my EventReceiver, something strange happens: When I press the Mouse-button, the varible is set to true, but when I release it, nothing happens! I controlled it in Debug-Mode, the programm never ever reachtes the second Case-Statement, and i just can't see any reason why! Is the "Left-Up" - Event somehow swallowed by the camera's OnEvent?

Not that this answers your problem, but I've never seen parantheses around the case clause, maybe compiler is treating that weirdly?

Oh, and also, don;t you want to return true, to consume the event?

There's an assignment instead of a comparison used in the OnEvent. This definitely gives wrong results.
