Choosing Java or C++
Listen, if you know a bit of programming in C and need to program unix-type operating systems the next transitive stage is for sure C++. However, have in mind that Java is like learning C but 99% object-oriented(o.o.) and with no pointers or memory-management tricks. It would be good for you to see and from this direction. Afterall, if you are interested in o.o. Java is for you.
In the end is what you really need most or interested in.
Just enjoy !!!

poll_mouse
poll_mouse(3alleg4) Allegro manual poll_mouse(3alleg4)
NAME
poll_mouse - Polls the mouse. Allegro game programming library.
SYNOPSIS
#include <allegro.h>
int poll_mouse();
DESCRIPTION
Wherever possible, Allegro will read the mouse input asynchronously (ie. from inside an interrupt handler), but on some platforms that may
not be possible, in which case you must call this routine at regular intervals to update the mouse state variables. To help you test your
mouse polling code even if you are programming on a platform that doesn't require it, after the first time that you call this function
Allegro will switch into polling mode, so from that point onwards you will have to call this routine in order to get any mouse input at
all, regardless of whether the current driver actually needs to be polled or not.
RETURN VALUE
Returns zero on success, or a negative number on failure (ie. no mouse driver installed).
