accelerator_parse


Description:


public void accelerator_parse (string accelerator, out uint accelerator_key, out ModifierType accelerator_mods)

Parses a string representing an accelerator.

The format looks like “<Control>a” or “<Shift><Alt>F1” or “<Release>z” (the last one is for key release).

The parser is fairly liberal and allows lower or upper case, and also abbreviations such as “<Ctl>” and “<Ctrl>”. Key names are parsed using keyval_from_name. For character keys the name is not the symbol, but the lowercase name, e.g. one would use “<Ctrl>minus” instead of “<Ctrl>-”.

If the parse fails, accelerator_key and accelerator_mods will be set to 0 (zero).

Parameters:

accelerator

string representing an accelerator

accelerator_key

return location for accelerator keyval, or null

accelerator_mods

return location for accelerator modifier mask, null
