Controlling mouse cursor

10 New Member
I know there is a robot class in java that has mouseMove(int x, int y) function to move the cursor to a certain coordinate. Is there a similar way to do it in C++? Also is there a way to simulate a mouse click or keyboard button press? like in java it's mouseClick() and keyPress()

Yes but, this will require using windows API (or for which ever OS your using). It contains several functions for Mouse Click, Keypress ect. I don't know Java but I'm going out on a limb here and saying it's a lot more complex doing it in Windows API instead of JAVA.
