JOY_TYPE_

Supported Windows joystick drivers.

Description

Drivers JOY_TYPE_*/Windows
The Windows library supports the following type parameters for the install_joystick() function:
  • JOY_TYPE_AUTODETECT
    Attempts to autodetect your joystick hardware. It will use information from the configuration file if one is available (this can be created using the setup utility or by calling the save_joystick_data() function), so you can always use JOY_TYPE_AUTODETECT in your code and then select the exact hardware type from the setup program.
  • JOY_TYPE_NONE
    Dummy driver for machines without any joystick.
  • JOY_TYPE_DIRECTX
    Use DirectInput to access the joystick.
  • JOY_TYPE_WIN32
    Use the regular Win32 interface rather than DirectInput to access the joystick.
