Getting input from a game controller
I'm trying to write an application/driver in C++ or java that will be able to take in input from a game controller plugged into the USB port on my PC.
Does anyone know how i can do this? I have no idea even where to begin with something like this. If anyone has any sample code or can give me any suggestions, it would be greatly appreciated. Thanks

I assume you are using Windows.
USB game controllers (and all other joystick-like devices) can be controlled with a few WinAPI functions in polling and event-driven modes. here is the corresponding chapter in the platform sdk: http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/d...ed/joy_42er.asp
