Keyboard shortcuts, please help.

Hello,

I am using asp.net 2.0 and I want to add keyboard shortcuts to my
application just like the shortcuts you see in GMAIL. I was wondering
how can I do this in ASP.NET? Scenerio that would like to implement is
as follows
" User hits ALT-A on hitting ALT-A a server-side event is raised"
Is this possible, I mean can a server side event be raised with a
keyboard shortcut OR I will have to raise a client side event? I am
kind of confused, I will appreciate if anyone can point me to the right
direction.

This can be done using javascript to capture the keys.

Have a look at this:

or this:

to get you in the right direction :)

Hello folks, I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>". The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed. This is as boiled down as I can make it. Here is my compilation command: g++-12 -std=c++20 -Wnarrowing bit_field.cpp Here is the code in...
