[−][src]Function opencv::highgui::wait_key
pub fn wait_key(delay: i32) -> Result<i32>
Waits for a pressed key.
The function waitKey waits for a key event infinitely (when ) or for delay
milliseconds, when it is positive. Since the OS has a minimum time between switching threads, the
function will not wait exactly delay ms, it will wait at least delay ms, depending on what else is
running on your computer at that time. It returns the code of the pressed key or -1 if no key was
pressed before the specified time had elapsed.
Note:
This function is the only method in HighGUI that can fetch and handle events, so it needs to be called periodically for normal event processing unless HighGUI is used within an environment that takes care of event processing.
Note:
The function only works if there is at least one HighGUI window created and the window is active. If there are several HighGUI windows, any of them can be active.
Parameters
- delay: Delay in milliseconds. 0 is the special value that means "forever".
C++ default parameters
- delay: 0
