Thread: LWJGL Keyboard-Inputs aren't recognized

Hello,

I wanted to create a simple window with the LWJGL and a key input request which closes the window.
I also wanted to create the classes in seperated packages, so it's more organized.
The window displays but if I press that certain key nothing happens.

It would be great if you could help me.

Thanks!

Here is the Main class:

 
package bb.main;
 
import bb.input.Input;
import bb.main.render.SimpleRenderer;
 
public class Main {
	public static void main(String[] args){
		SimpleRenderer 	createWindow 	= new SimpleRenderer();
		Input			input			= new Input();
 
		createWindow.Render();
		input.checkKey();
	}
}

Here is the SimpleRenderer class:

package bb.main.render;
 
import org.lwjgl.LWJGLException;
import org.lwjgl.opengl.Display;
import org.lwjgl.opengl.DisplayMode;
 
public class SimpleRenderer {
	public void Render(){
 
		try{
			Display.setDisplayMode(new DisplayMode(1280, 720));
			Display.setTitle("MISSING TITLE!");
			Display.create();
		} catch (LWJGLException LWex){
			LWex.printStackTrace();
			System.exit(0);
		}
 
		while(!Display.isCloseRequested()){
 
			Display.update();
		}
		Display.destroy();
	}	
}

And here is the Input class:

package bb.input;
 
import org.lwjgl.input.Keyboard;
import org.lwjgl.opengl.Display;
 
public class Input {
	public void checkKey(){
		while(Keyboard.next()){
			if(Keyboard.getEventKeyState()){
				if(Keyboard.getEventKey() == Keyboard.KEY_ESCAPE){
					Display.destroy();
					System.exit(0);
				}	
			}
		}
		Display.destroy();
	}
}

Welcome to the forum! Thanks for taking the time to learn how to post code correctly. If you haven't already, please read this topic to learn other useful info for new members.

Someone familiar with the LWJGL may come along to help, but notice the forum is generally geared towards helping with Java SE. All questions are welcome, but those about non-SE libraries may take a little longer to get a response. You might look for and ask your question in a LWJGL forum if one exists.

Good luck!
