Debug Error

Every time I debug my project it fails to appear. An error message pops up and states a "debug error" occurred and gives me the option to either abort or Retry. When I choose to Retry another message pops up telling me "MYPROJECT has triggered a breakpoint". I don't know what this means.

Here are other output errors:

You need to install the keyboard before you use it.

I placed the al_install_keyboard after the display. The primitives appear (thanks), but the program is not accepting any input. Any ideas.

#include <allegro5\allegro.h>
#include <allegro5\allegro_primitives.h>

int main()
{
int player1_x = 50;
int player1_y = 400;

int player2_x = 850;
int player2_y = 400;

int ball_x = 454;
int ball_y = 350;
int ball_rad = 10;

bool done = false;

//Initializes the allegro program
al_init();
al_set_new_display_flags(ALLEGRO_WINDOWED);
al_set_new_display_refresh_rate(60); // The refresh rate for display

//Makes the display window the width and height
ALLEGRO_DISPLAY *display = al_create_display( 900,800);

// Places "Ultimate Pong" on the window
al_set_window_title(display,"Ultimate Pong");

// Initializes keyboard device for user input
al_install_keyboard();

// Creating the event queue
event_queue = al_create_event_queue();

ALLEGRO_EVENT_QUEUE *event_queue = NULL;


// Registers so it can be place keyboard input on the queue
al_register_event_source(event_queue, al_get_keyboard_event_source());


// Initializes primitives
al_init_primitives_addon();

while(!done)
{

ALLEGRO_EVENT ev;
al_wait_for_event(event_queue, &ev);

if(ev.type == ALLEGRO_KEY_DOWN)
{

switch(ev.keyboard.keycode)
{

case ALLEGRO_KEY_LEFT:
player1_y -= 20;
break;

case ALLEGRO_KEY_RIGHT:
player1_y += 20;

}
}
else if(ev.type == ALLEGRO_KEY_UP)
{
if(ev.keyboard.keycode == ALLEGRO_KEY_ESCAPE)
done = true;
}

// Paddle number 1
al_draw_filled_rectangle(player1_x , player1_y, player1_x + 10, player1_y - 100, al_map_rgb(99,99,100));

// Paddle number 2
al_draw_filled_rectangle(player2_x, player2_y, player2_x + 10, player2_y,al_map_rgb(99,99,100));

// Ball
al_draw_filled_circle(ball_x, ball_y, ball_rad,al_map_rgb(250,0,0));

// Helps what has been drawn visible on screen. Switches from blank screen to the actually image
al_flip_display(); /
al_clear_to_color(al_map_rgb(0,0,0));

}

al_destroy_event_queue(event_queue);
al_destroy_display(display); // Destroys the display
return 0;
}

Use tags to format your code when posting. Click the formatting help button for the syntax.

ev.type needs to be ALLEGRO_EVENT_KEY_DOWN.

You are using ALLEGRO_KEY_DOWN which is just a constant that represents a keycode for the "down" key.
