-This is the source tree for the core input API.
-
-Directory Organization:
-
-The root contains a master ANT build.xml.
-After a successful build of the project you will have the following sub directories:
- -- apidocs Where the javadocs get built to
- -- lib Where dependant libraries are kept.
- -- bin Where the actual API is built to
- -- src The source files.
- -- src/test Execution directories and data for tests.
-
-Build instructions:
-
-To clean: ant clean
-To build: ant all (or just ant)
-To build docs: ant javadoc
-To test:
- Textest: A simple discovery test that dumps
- the data about the discovered controllers to stdout
- To run: ant textest
- Readtest: A test that creates a window for each discovered
- controller (or sub-controller) which displays the
- current state of all the controller's axiis.
- (Note: The windows currrently all open at the same
- place on the screen so yo uwill have to move them to
- see them all.)
- To run: ant readtest

-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.)
