Apple's official Game Controller Framework + API in iOS 7 and OS X 10.9? - Hedda - 2014-09-15 Apple introduced an official Game Controller Framework + API from iOS 7 and OS X 10.9 http://www.mactrast.com/2013/06/apple-to-bring-official-game-controller-support-to-ios-7-and-os-x-mavericks/ http://www.raywenderlich.com/66532/ios-7-game-controller-tutorial Would it be possible for you to add joystick / gamepad support of it in RetroPlayer? You can find that developers documentation in the Apple Game Controller Programming Guide here https://developer.apple.com/library/ios/documentation/ServicesDiscovery/Conceptual/GameControllerPG/Introduction/Introduction.html https://developer.apple.com/library/ios/Documentation/GameController/Reference/GameController_RefColl/GameController_RefColl.pdf This should enable native support for joysticks and gamepads under iOS and Mac OS X RE: Apple's official Game Controller Framework + API in iOS 7 and OS X 10.9? - garbear - 2014-12-12 interesting. gamepads have never been supported directly on OSX, so this may change things. I switch to OSX for my main development environment, so I'll keep an eye on this. RE: Apple's official Game Controller Framework + API in iOS 7 and OS X 10.9? - Hedda - 2014-12-18 For reference, some very cool related work on APIs for input (peripheral) addons being worked on right by garbear here right now http://forum.kodi.tv/showthread.php?tid=211138 (2014-12-18, 07:54)garbear Wrote: Now I have a little present for you RE: Apple's official Game Controller Framework + API in iOS 7 and OS X 10.9? - RockerC - 2015-09-17 FYI, it looks like Apple earlier this month updated their official Game Controller Framework to be tvOS (Apple TV 4) and iOS 9 compatible, see: https://developer.apple.com/library/prerelease/tvos/documentation/General/Conceptual/AppleTV_PG/WorkingwithGameControllers.html https://developer.apple.com/library/prerelease/tvos/documentation/GameController/Reference/GameController_RefColl/index.html https://developer.apple.com/tvos/human-interface-guidelines/remote-and-interaction/ https://forums.developer.apple.com/thread/17355 SteelSeries Nimbus is the reference game controller and the first official gamepad to support Apple TV with tvOS (ATV4) and iOS 9: https://steelseries.com/gaming-controllers/nimbus RE: Apple's official Game Controller Framework + API in iOS 7 and OS X 10.9? - Hedda - 2016-02-10 Bump for CPeripheralBusiOS class in RetroPlayer on iOS http://forum.kodi.tv/showthread.php?tid=246680 (2016-02-10, 01:42)Montellese Wrote: OK after spending some time on bringing my android buildsystem back up to speed and setting up my ADT-1 for development again I have extended some of the JNI wrappers to access the android InputManager and more properties of the InputDevice class. Then I've implemented a CPeripheralBusAndroid class which is able to read all controllers. It however ignores everything except joysticks and gamepads as it actually lists virtual, GPIO and keyboard devices as well. |
