#174 Impossible to assign certain keys as input.

[Manuel Astudillo]

In version 0.84.b3 when using USB keyboards or
Arcade joysticks, some keys are not possible to assign.
For example, trying to use key "z" does not work, I
tried both with USB keyboard and arcade joystick that
uses z as right movement. This mappings works
perfectly on xmame, so it must be a bug related to
mameox implementation. Besides z key there are other
keys that are not possible to map either.

hmm, I checked a bit the MAMEOx Sources and found
something that might be the bug (at least for the Z key).
In the file xbox_Keyboard.cpp line 109:

char str[2] = { 'A', 0 };
UINT32 i = 0;
for( ; i < KEYCODE_Z - KEYCODE_A; ++i )
{
str[0] = 'A' + i;
ADDENTRY( str, str[0], KEYCODE_A + i );
}

Seems to me that the loop iterate only to KEYCODE_Y...
the correct loop should be:

char str[2] = { 'A', 0 };
UINT32 i;
for( i = 0; i <= KEYCODE_Z - KEYCODE_A; i++ )
{
str[0] = 'A' + i;
ADDENTRY( str, str[0], KEYCODE_A + i );
}

Fixed in MAMEoX128 Plus!
