Re: [sdljava-users] joystick events without framebuffer?

[Ivan G. <iva...@ya...>]

Greetings,

I think you should be able to but I haven't verified this.

What you want to do is call SDL_INIT with only SDL_INIT_JOYSTICK.

Have a look here:
    http://www.libsdl.org/cgi/docwiki.cgi/SDL_5fInit

Have not tried this myself though.  Let me know if it works.  I'm not sure
if you are supposed to be able to do this -- but I don't see why  not.  If
you are able to make it work with a simple C program then it should also be
possible from sdljava.   If it works from C but not sdljava then we need to
fix sdljava so it works.
