How do I handle keyboard events in C++ using SFML?

To handle keyboard events in SFML, you can use the sf::Event class. You need to check for events in your main loop.

Can you show me a code example?

Sure! Here's a simple example:

#include <SFML/Graphics.hpp>

int main() {
    sf::RenderWindow window(sf::VideoMode(800, 600), "Keyboard Events");
    while (window.isOpen()) {
        sf::Event event;
        while (window.pollEvent(event)) {
            if (event.type == sf::Event::Closed)
                window.close();
            if (event.type == sf::Event::KeyPressed) {
                if (event.key.code == sf::Keyboard::Escape)
                    window.close();
            }
        }
        window.clear();
        window.display();
    }
    return 0;
}

What other keyboard events can I handle?

You can handle various events like KeyReleased, TextEntered, and check for specific keys like sf::Keyboard::A, sf::Keyboard::W, etc.

Is there a way to check if a key is currently pressed?

Yes! You can use sf::Keyboard::isKeyPressed(sf::Keyboard::Key) to check if a specific key is currently pressed.
