+
+This is the source tree for the core input API.
+
+Directory Organization:
+
+The root contains a master ANT build.xml.
+After a successful build you will have the following sub directories:
+ -- apidocs Where the javadocs get built to
+ -- lib Where dependant libraries are kept.
+ -- bin Where the plugin dll and jar files ar built to.
+ -- src The source files.
+
+
+Build instructions:
+
+To clean: ant clean
+To build: ant all (or just ant)
+To build docs: ant javadoc
+To test:
+ This build will install the plug-in into the coreAPI's test
+ directories.
+ Use the tests in the coreAPI build.xml to test.
+
+Release Info:
+ Initial Release: This release contains an implementation of the input
+ API designed by Mike Martak of Sun and Thomas (?) of Sony CEA for
+ the WIn32 platform. All the code in src/input is cross platform. The
+ Win32 code is segregated to the DirectX plugin (src/DXplugin) which
+ depends on DirectInput from DX7 (or later).
+
+ 05/09/2003: A number of bugs and problems with the DXPlugin are fixed in this
+ release. This release also brings the code up to date using the DI8
+ interface. This thus is the first release that requries Peter Puck's
+ DX8 bindings to compile with MinGW.
+
+ 05/09/2003 (second update):
+ This version adds a new standard value type to the API.
+ Axis.POV holds standard definitions for values for POV (hat) switches
+ -- Axis.POV.CENTER and Axis.POV.OFF are synonmous and are
+ the center position.
+ -- Axis.POV.UP, Axis.POV.DOWN, Axis.POV.LEFT and Axis.POV.RIGHT
+ should be self explainatory.
+ Any hat that claims to be "normalized" will return these values. (It is
+ recommended that all hats be normalized by the systemn specific plugins.)
+
