<p>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.</p>
<p>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.</p>
<p>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.

<li> Win32 (Win 2000 in the case of our machine)</li>
<li> Sun J2SDK 1.4.2 (available at <a href=" http://java.sun.com " target="_blank">java.sun.com</a>)</li>
<li> MinGW 2.0.0 plus the following updates: (all available
at <a href=" http://www.mingw.org " target="_blank">www.mingw.org</a>)
<ul>
<li>binutils 2.13.90</li>
<li> w32api-2.2</li>

www.urebelscum.speedhost.com/download.html</a>
(Copy all his .a files into your MinGW installation's "lib" directory.)
</li>
<li> The DirectX9 SDK available at
<a href="http://www.microsoft.com/directx" target= " _blank">
www.microsoft.com/directx</a>
(The ant script expects this to be in c:\dx9. If you
install elsewhere you will need to modify the Win32 plugin's

<p>This project requires that the Java Utils library (jutil.jar) be built and placed
in this project's lib directories. See the README for more detail. For the
Java Utils library itself see
