Project Description
The DirectX Input for XNA allows usage of DirectX compatibles Joysticks in XNA game development for windows.

How to use?
Create a GameComponent, add DXJoy.dll in references and add DXJoystickSupport in using declarations. After do this, put the follow code in respective methods listed above:

• Initialize
  • DXJoy.Load(this.Game);
• Update
  • DXJoy.Poll();
• Dispose
  • DXJoy.Unload();

Insert the follow code in your game constructor(where YourGameComponent is the GameComponent created below):

• this.Components.Add(new YourGameComponent(this));

DXJoy works like Microsoft.Xna.Framework.Input.GamePad. Here has a sample of use:

if (DXJoy.GetState(PlayerIndex.One).Buttons.NegativeXAxis.Equals(ButtonState.Pressed))
{
   //do something
}
if (DXJoy.GetState(PlayerIndex.One).Buttons.PointOfViewW.Equals(ButtonState.Pressed))
{
   //do something
}
if (DXJoy.GetState(PlayerIndex.One).Buttons.Button1.Equals(ButtonState.Pressed))
{
   //do something
}
