Release notes for 29-Nov-2016

Version 2.1.8

• Enhancement: New interface function GetOwnerPid(). This function returns the ID of the process owning a specified vJoy device. You can use this function to:

  • Make sure that your process is indeed the owner of a device.
  • Get the process that prevents you from acquiring the device and issue an intelligent message to the user.
  • Facilitate killing zomby processes that still own a device.

• Enhancement: vJoyList - a utility that lists all vJoy devices and specifies the owner of each device. vJoyList is part of the installation.

• Enhancement: Smoother initialization of a vJoy device. A device is initialized when created, configured or requested to from the API. It retains its position when acquired to prevent a glitch.

• Bug Fix: Initializing discrete POVs to non-default values was incorrectly done. It is now possible: Discrete POV registry values are now:

  • 0x80: North/Forwards
  • 0x81: East/Right
  • 0x82: South/Backwards
  • 0x83: West/Left
  • 0x8F: Neutral Point
