[Windows] Event-based joystick handling

[550nm]

Hi,

      In case this might be of use, here's some sample code that traps joystick events with an event structure.  There may be an example like this here already - if so, apologies for taking up space.  The only examples I saw use polling to check for joystick changes. 😞

This example builds on some code found here for trapping windows-messages.

Cheers.

... one more time

Am also attaching the messaging .zip and Messaging.txt - some source code that lists windows messages. 🙂

Cheers!

Hello 550nm (Yellow with a tinge of green )

We really appreciate your contibrution but the right place to put examples will be the community.

LabVIEW code sharing

Thanks again.

Warm regards,

Hi Mart,

For the record, the two CLF calls to Winmm.dll need to have WinAPI checked, and the one labeled "JoyReleaseCapture" needs to be corrected to invoke the "joyReleaseCapture" function.  However, I'll post any new code to correct place -

 thanks for the link. 🙂

Cheers.
