Now you don't have to run two different programs. Now you can start the daemon application from within the gui. There is also a tray icon thingy. There is supposed to be a joystick icon but that's for later.

Now sdljava is included in the release so you don't have to install it seperately. For Windows users, I also included the SDL runtime environment .dll file in the release. I might do that with the GNU/Linux .so files as well but it's more common for GNU/Linux users to have SDL installed.

Anyways, now you can click and run! There are two bat files for Windows; runconfig.bat and rundaemon.bat

For GNU/Linux there are two shell files, runconfig.sh and rundaemon.sh... read more

Okay, now you don't need eclipse to run jojsticken! Still, you have to install sdljava yourself. I'm trying to include it with the jar file but I'm not quite there yet.

Next up, to see if I can get it to work on Windows.

Now I have managed to get the axis working. It works great with digital axis (that is, axis that are like buttons, on or off) but is a bit buggy with analog axis.

I have just release the first alfa version of jojsticken. It's not an easy point and click installer so if that's what you want, you better stay tuned for a bit longer.

(Or extract the jar file and import the folders to a new project).

The tricky part is to get sdljava (http://sdljava.sourceforge.net) working. Follow the tutorial and you should be OK.... read more

Hello!

I'm rewriting rejoystick, http://rejoystick.sourceforge.net in java with sdljava (sdl bindings for java).

Do you want a feature that's missing in rejoystick? Well then, go to https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?group_id=241643&atid=1116654 and add the feature you want.

Stay tuned, the first version will soon be release. (I have some exams now the following 1-2 weeks, so we'll see when there's time.)... read more
