How can I get the mouse click position in C++ in a Windows console program? (A variable that returns the position of the mouse when clicked)
I want to draw a menu with simple text commands, so when someone clicks, the game will register it and know the position. I know how to do everything I need to do except get the mouse position when clicked.
You'll need to use the *ConsoleInput family of methods (peek, read, etc). These operate on the console's input buffer, which includes keyboard and mouse events. The general strategy is:
- wait on the console's input buffer handle (
ReadConsoleInput) - determine the number of waiting events (
lpNumberOfEventsRead) - handle them as you see fit (i.e.
MOUSE_EVENTandMOUSE_EVENT_RECORD)
You'll have to indicate that you want to retrieve mouse input using SetConsoleMode first though, as illustrated in this MSDN article.
Use the consoles own event handler for keyboard and mouse - ReadConsoleInput( ).

GetConsoleScreenBufferInfo retrieves information about the specified console screen buffer in a CONSOLE_SCREEN_BUFFER_INFO structure. The dwCursorPosition member gives you the X and Y positions.
