Hi there!
I´m writing a wrapper around
XInput, trying to keep the interface as similar to the
SFML API as possible.
If you guys like this code and find it usefull, I will add it to the wiki page
The code compiles and works fine with MinGW
It works with my wired X360 controller, I don´t know if it will work with the wireless controller
Of course you will need the DirectX SDK installed
Note that this will work
only with XBox 360 compatible devices, for another kind of gamepads you still need to use the SFML Joystick API
Ok, here is the code:
X360Controller.hpp
#ifndef X360_CONTROLLER_HPP
#define X360_CONTROLLER_HPP
#include <SFML/System/Vector2.hpp>
namespace xb {
class Joystick {
public:
// Typedefs
typedef unsigned int t_joyNum;
typedef unsigned short t_buttonNum;
// Enums
enum {
Count = 4 // Player 0-3
};
enum {
DPAD_UP = 0x0001,
DPAD_DOWN = 0x0002,
DPAD_LEFT = 0x0004,
DPAD_RIGHT = 0x0008,
START = 0x0010,
BACK = 0x0020,
LEFT_THUMB = 0x0040,
RIGHT_THUMB = 0x0080,
LB = 0x0100,
RB = 0x0200,
A = 0x1000,
B = 0x2000,
X = 0x4000,
Y = 0x8000,
};
// Functions (similar to SFML API)
static bool isConnected (t_joyNum joyNum);
static unsigned int getButtonCount (t_joyNum joyNum) { return 14; }
static bool isButtonPressed (t_joyNum joyNum, t_buttonNum buttonNum);
// X360 specific functions
