Trouble w/ ReadConsoleInput

[CoffeeAddict19]

The error I'm getting: 1>c:\users\john\documents\visual studio 2008\projects\torch\torch\main.cpp(18) : error C2065: 'lpBuffer' : undeclared identifier I've seen plenty of examples where ReadConsoleInput is setup to read only 1 INPUT_RECORD and then return, but I'm trying to set it up so that if multiple events occur at once, so they will be placed into a vector array instead. The trouble is that everything stops once ReadConsoleInput starts and I have no easy way of referencing the variable to be stored. Here is my code:

#include "includeall.h"

using namespace std;

int main(int argc, char **argv)
{
HANDLE hIn = GetStdHandle(STD_INPUT_HANDLE);
HANDLE hOut = GetStdHandle(STD_OUTPUT_HANDLE);
DWORD NumRead;
BOOL eventloop = FALSE;
vector<INPUT_RECORD>InputRecs;

printf("Welcome to Bloodhound 1.0a (torch).\\n");
printf("Press the ESC key at any time to exit.\\n");

do
{
	 X| if(ReadConsoleInput(hIn, InputRecs.push\_back(lpBuffer), (DWORD)InputRecs.capacity(), &NumRead) != 0)
	{
		//sort through events
	}
	else //error is present
	{
		printf("Unable to read from console error number (%d)", GetLastError());
		printf(".\\n");
		eventloop = FALSE;
	}
	InputRecs.clear();
}while(eventloop == TRUE);



return 0;

}

Ideas?

Yes. You need to declare lpBuffer.
