Description: JInput is an interface to joysticks and gamepads for java
The JInput Project hosts an implementation of an API for game controller
discovery and polled input. It is part of a suite of open-source
technologies
initiated by the Game Technology Group at Sun Microsystems with
intention of
making the development of high performance games in Java a reality.
.
The API itself is pure Java and presents a platform-neutral completely
portable model of controller discovery and polling. It can handle arbitrary
controllers and returns both human and machine understandable descriptions
of the inputs available.
.
The implementation hosted here also includes plug-ins to allow the API to
adapt to various specific platforms. These plug-ins often contain a native
code portion to interface to the host system.
