< 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
2003-06-07 21:21:04 +02:00
initiated by the Game Technology Group at Sun Microsystems with intention of
making the development of high performance games in Java a reality.< / p >
2003-07-31 00:14:32 +02:00
< p > The API itself is pure Java and presents a platform-neutral
2003-06-07 21:21:04 +02:00
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.
