Detect mouse action on click - c++

Question

How can I detect if a click on a (x,y) coordinates point will create any action?
For example is there any bool function (in c++) or something like that which can tell me if a double-click on (200,200) coordinates point will create any action before actually making the click?

Use ReadConsoleInput for mouse event.
You can check out microsoft domentation. http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/desktop/ms685035(v=vs.85).aspx
Sample code again:
#include <iostream>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <windows.h>
using namespace std;
int main()
{
cout<<"click anywhere in console window to write - hello world -\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n"
"Press Ctrl+C to Exit";
HANDLE hout= GetStdHandle(STD_OUTPUT_HANDLE);
HANDLE hin = GetStdHandle(STD_INPUT_HANDLE);
INPUT_RECORD InputRecord;
DWORD Events;
COORD coord;
CONSOLE_CURSOR_INFO cci;
cci.dwSize = 25;
cci.bVisible = FALSE;
SetConsoleCursorInfo(hout, &cci);
SetConsoleMode(hin, ENABLE_PROCESSED_INPUT | ENABLE_MOUSE_INPUT);
while(1)
{
ReadConsoleInput(hin, &InputRecord, 1, &Events);
if(InputRecord.EventType == MOUSE_EVENT)
{
if(InputRecord.Event.MouseEvent.dwButtonState == FROM_LEFT_1ST_BUTTON_PRESSED)
{
coord.X = InputRecord.Event.MouseEvent.dwMousePosition.X;
coord.Y = InputRecord.Event.MouseEvent.dwMousePosition.Y;
SetConsoleCursorPosition(hout,coord);
SetConsoleTextAttribute(hout,rand() %7+9);
cout<<"Hello world" ;
}
}
FlushConsoleInputBuffer(hin);
}
return 0;
}
