Description-en: Java Game Controller API
jinput is an implementation of an API for game controller discovery and
polled input. It is part of a suite of open-source technologies initiated by
the Game Technology Group at Sun Microsystems with intention of making the
development of high performance games in Java a reality.
The API itself is pure Java and presents a platform-neutral completely
portable model of controller discovery and polling. It can handle arbitrary
controllers and returns both human and machine understandable descriptions
of the inputs available.
