I've got some older MFC code I wrote that I'm "freshening up" a bit. I have the following code in a window class' OnChar() handler.
I really don't like using constants like 0x18. I'd like to make the code more readable. I know I can declare my own, but are there no Windows macros for these values? I couldn't find anything about this on the web.
// Check for clipboard commands
switch (nChar)
{
case 0x18: // Ctrl+X - Cut
OnEditCut();
break;
case 0x03: // Ctrl+C - Copy
OnEditCopy();
break;
case 0x16: // Ctrl+V - Paste
OnEditPaste();
break;
}
