Re: [Plib-devel] Windows, multiple joystick support

[Jonah W. \(R. Student\) <ja...@ri...>]

Would a member of the devel list be kind enough to grant me access to =
commit changes to subversion or commit the following patch for me?

In jsWindows.cxx I suggest replacing the current constructor with the =
following code to allow support for more than 2 joystick devices. =
Windows 95 and higher support at least 16 devices and there does not =
seem to be any reason why plib should artificially limit itself to only =
2.

jsJoystick::jsJoystick ( int ident )
{
  id =3D ident ;
  os =3D new struct os_specific_s;

  if (ident >=3D 0 && ident < joyGetNumDevs()) {
	os->js_id =3D JOYSTICKID1 + ident;
	open();
  }
  else {
	num_axes =3D 0;
	setError();
  }
}

joyGetNumDevs() is documented here: =
