Detailed Description

Central UI event router and input processor.

CUIEventManager implements IEventProcessor and acts as the global bridge between low-level engine input events (SEvent) and the UI system (CUIContainer / CUIBase). It manages a list of active UI containers, routes pointer/keyboard events to the correct container or UI element, and maintains focus/capture state for higher-level UI interactions.

Responsibilities:

• Register/unregister UI containers that should receive events.
• Maintain capture and focus semantics for UI elements.
• Track the current pointer position and pointer id for multi-pointer systems.
• Convert and forward SEvent instances to the appropriate container(s).

Threading: Event processing is expected to be invoked from the main/game thread.

Lifetime: CUIEventManager is declared as a singleton via DECLARE_SINGLETON.

Member Function Documentation

OnProcessEvent()

virtual bool Skylicht::UI::CUIEventManager::OnProcessEvent ( const SEvent & event )

virtual

Implementation of IEventProcessor::OnProcessEvent.

Receives an SEvent from the engine and routes it to registered CUIContainer instances. Responsible for updating captured/focused elements and for translating low-level input into UI pointer/key events.

Parameters

event

The input event provided by the engine.

Returns

true if the event was handled by the UI and should not be further processed; false to allow propagation.

Implements Skylicht::IEventProcessor.

registerUIContainer()

void Skylicht::UI::CUIEventManager::registerUIContainer

(

CUIContainer *

container

)

Register a UI container to receive routed events.

The container will be added to the internal list and will participate when routing input events. Duplicate registration is ignored.

Parameters

container

Container to register.

setFocus()

void Skylicht::UI::CUIEventManager::setFocus

(

CUIBase *

focus

)

Set keyboard/focus to a given UI element.

Focused element receives keyboard events and focus callbacks.

Parameters

focus

Element to receive focus (nullptr to clear focus).

unregisterUIContainer()

void Skylicht::UI::CUIEventManager::unregisterUIContainer

(

CUIContainer *

container

)

Unregister a UI container so it no longer receives events.

Removes the container from internal routing lists. If the container is not registered this is a no-op.

Parameters

container

Container to unregister.
