I've tried to compile your program with the Borland C++ and it works
fine, but I've already had similar problems.
In my opinion, the problem is that you can only pass static functions
(not true methods) as an argument for the callbacks. The solution is
to declare your method as a static method :
class blahblah
{
static void Pressed(PObject sender, char *);
}
Of course, you may have to change your code a little since a static
method is common to all the instances of this class. So this method
doesn't know which instance it depends on (use a pointer to the
current instance)
