Reduce the amount of plattform specific code users have to write

Hi,
I recently got fed up with using the not very C++ish API OIS provides; then I found your lib and started liking the API much more (the lack of * in your example really gives one a feeling of memory safety).

However, when integrating gainput into my code I found that there was rather a lot of plattform specific code I had to write. I used your sample framework as a reference and got it working at some point,
but it seems to me, that a lot of code from the samples could simply be pulled into the main library, thereby saving the users of your lib a day of hassle.

Now of course there will be some platform specific code necessary to initialize gainput and assign it the correct window and so on. But even for that I could imagine that 80% of the cases could be solved in a generic way.
E.g. to initialize the library one could list the windows opened by the current process and simply attach to the first one.

is this working with glfw (opengl) window?

i tried getting it to work, but the function "PeekMessage" is getting HWnd which is not GLFW window
is it possible combine two libraries together?

gainputtest Visual Studio linker error

I use Visual studio 2015. Generate project by cmake -G 'Visual Studio 14'. Got error when build gainputtest target:
MSVCRT.lib(exe_winmain.obj) : error LNK2019: unresolved external symbol _WinMain@16 referenced in function "int __cdecl __scrt_common_main_seh(void)" (?__scrt_common_main_seh@@YAHXZ)

Programmatically trigger input events with custom platform

Hello! I am working with a custom platform that is not Linux, Windows, or Android, but I want to be able to use your event handlers with my custom platform so that objects listening for events in my software can react to gamepad events from the platform. This is what I mean in pseudocode:

if(custompaltforminput.isButtonDown(...))
{
map button in custom platform to user defined button
create event with user defined button name, coordinates, etc.
trigger event
}

Is this possible?

Make Error on Ubuntu

Hey! I have an error when running the make command in the build folder. I get an error that I should use C++ 11, But i'm unsure how to do this, I read you do it in the Makefile, but how?

Is a Joystick supported?

So, I've properly set up gainput into my Qt project, at least mouse and keyboard inputs are recognized by gainput. Now I am trying to bring my joystick to life but without success so far. Now I am wondering, is it even supported in your library? Is a joystick considered a gamepad? :D
Your PadButtons enumerations start with 17, though I know my joystick buttons range from 0 - 11. Thanks in advance!

Deterministic input recording/playback

Hey, really liking the library.

I noticed you use a time stamp for recording and playing back input events. While this works for the most part, I don't believe it can achieve true deterministic reliability (for replaying a session). The framework using your library would have to update its state/input at a fixed frequency, which would replace time stamps with a simple integer counter.

I plan on making this change for my engine, but I figured I give you a heads up in case you also wanted to support an integer counter for playback. Don't know when I'll get around to it, but I'll submit a pull if you're interested.

Error in compilation for android

Hi,
When trying to compile the source for android using instructions in the Readme, I encountered the following error:

"/lib/source/gainput/touch/GainputInputDeviceTouch.cpp:32:6: error: 'variant' was not declared in this scope"

I got it compiled by changing the line:

InputDeviceTouch::InputDeviceTouch(InputManager& manager, DeviceId device, unsigned index, DeviceVariant /variant/) :

to:

InputDeviceTouch::InputDeviceTouch(InputManager& manager, DeviceId device, unsigned index, DeviceVariant variant) :

Am I right to uncomment variant?

integrate with SFML

Hi,
how can i integrate Gainput with SFML, SFML expose only the Window ID, and how to integrate gainput event handling with sfml event Handling ?

A gamepad returns only positive float value

A gamepad returns only positive float value. How to get negative values of GetFloat() ?

Receiving both WM_LBUTTONDOWN and WM_LBUTTONUP in same frame

If these two messages occur and are processed in the same frame (via InputManager::HandleMessage()), by the time InputManager::Update() is invoked it will essentially think nothing happened as the boolean has been flipped back already.

Under normal circumstances a "down" and "up" message for either mouse or keyboard usually doesn't get processed in the same frame. At least can't make it happen without the use of breakpoints in code.

However I have an ELO touchscreen hooked into a Windows 7 embedded image, which is responsible for sending these mouse events, to emulate mouse stuff for programs that don't understand touch. When I tap the screen the WM_LBUTTONDOWN and WM_LBUTTONUP get sent essentially at the same time (in order), and cause the input to be ignored as explained above.

I should be able to hack my way around this problem, but I figured I'd mention it here.

Program crashes when using InputManager

I have built and linked gainput.
As soon as I add line:
gainput::InputManager input;

I get no warnings/errors, but program crashed right after start. Even a minimal example crashed.

Any ideas would be appreciated!

EDIT: I am using msvc 2013 64 bit

Raw input not working

I want to work with raw input (windows) and thought this library was a good fit for me.
I tried to modify the listener example to use raw input but was not able to do so.

Steps to reproduce:

1. Build the project for x64 (I used VS2017 Community)

2. Change the following code snippet in listenersample.cpp:
   manager.CreateDevice<gainput::InputDeviceKeyboard>(gainput::InputDevice::DV_RAW);
const gainput::DeviceId keyboardId = manager.CreateDevice<gainput::InputDeviceKeyboard>();
manager.CreateDevice<gainput::InputDeviceMouse>(gainput::InputDevice::DV_RAW);
const gainput::DeviceId mouseId = manager.CreateDevice<gainput::InputDeviceMouse>();
manager.CreateDevice<gainput::InputDevicePad>();
manager.CreateDevice<gainput::InputDevicePad>();
manager.CreateDevice<gainput::InputDeviceTouch>();
   to
   const gainput::DeviceId keyboardId = manager.CreateDevice<gainput::InputDeviceKeyboard>(gainput::InputDevice::AutoIndex, gainput::InputDevice::DV_RAW);
//manager.CreateDevice<gainput::InputDeviceKeyboard>();
const gainput::DeviceId mouseId = manager.CreateDevice<gainput::InputDeviceMouse>(gainput::InputDevice::AutoIndex, gainput::InputDevice::DV_RAW);
//manager.CreateDevice<gainput::InputDeviceMouse>();
//manager.CreateDevice<gainput::InputDevicePad>();
//manager.CreateDevice<gainput::InputDevicePad>();
//manager.CreateDevice<gainput::InputDeviceTouch>();

3. Run the sample project

4. Observe that there is no mouse input being reported

Potential solution:

I believe that the problem lies in how the library gets the raw input data in GainputInputDeviceMouseWinRaw.h and GainputInputDeviceKeyboardWinRaw.h

For x64 dwSize variable must be 48 instead of 40. A better way would be to get the size needed from the system itself.

Check the revisions of this gist.

NOTE: I have used C++ 11 features (shared_ptr) for my modifications.

Kindly let me know if you need anything more from my side

Undefined reference errors when using inside a DLL

I am currently building a tiny game engine, and chose gainput for the input.
The engine gets compiled to a dll, which is then linked against and used by a little test game.
However, when i have the input system enabled (and link the dll against gainputstatic.a with -lgainputstatic). My library stops "working:" i get tons of undefined reference erros on the linking stage, which are not directly related to gainput, but are related to my engines internal classes and functions:

These undefined reference errors dont occur when not enabling the input system, and thus not linking against gainput.

does anyone used this for controlling your app through your smartphone?

hey, i have an app that uses OpenGL, and i want to control the camera through gestures on my smart phone.
for that I wanted to use the HTTP version inside tools.
unfortunately i can't get it to work, i tried running the dynamicSample which can turn on the DevSetHttp function which enables the software to work through the http, but nothing really happens when i connect with my phone, anyone has any ideas for me?

Thanks

Trouble building in Visual Studio 2015 for Xbox UWP x64 cocos2d-x app

Decided to give gainput a try after researching controller libraries that could be used with Cocos2d-x, based on some discussions and recommendations on their forums. However, I've been having some problems deploying anything to the Xbox with gainput added.

Basically, I have a cocos2d-x 3.15 Visual Studio solution for our game and I used cmake to generate the VS 2015 x64 gainput solution using the command cmake -G "Visual Studio 14 2015 Win64". I then added the "gainput" project to our cocos2d-x VS solution and set it as a build dependency.

I also needed to add the gainput\lib\include folder to "Additional Include Directories" and for the Linker, added gainput-d.lib to "Additional Dependencies" and added the lib\Debug output directory to "Additional Library Directories".

I now get source-code completion, and the sample gainput code from the basic example builds and everything links. However, when deploying to the Xbox, I get the error message "A dependent dll was not found.

I thought this was because in the AppX folder, the gainput-d.dll file was missing, however copying it there and re-deploying was unsuccessful. I used the Dependency Walker tool and it seems gaininput-d.dll needs kernel32.dll, user32.dll, xinput9_1_0.dll, ws2_32.dll, vcruntime140D.dll, and ucrtbased.dll.

This seemed strange because these look like win32 specific dependencies so I checked the preprocesser build flags for the "gainput" project and sure enough, they included WIN32 and _WINDOWS, which I don't think should be there for x64 builds.

Sorry for the long write-up but wanted to be detailed on exactly what was going on. Do you know of anyone who has been able to use your library for Xbox UWP x64 apps, or even Windows 10 UWP x64 apps? Building/running the samples worked fine for me, but those are simply win32 desktop builds, so it's not a fair comparison. I could very well be running an incorrect build configuration.

I'd like to try using the library on the Xbox for our game, any help on this would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks!

[iOS] Issue with touch pressure + Fix

I'm currently working on an app based on a GameViewCotnroller + Metalkit.
I have added the Gainputview as a subview to the MTKView but I have found an issue with the function initWithFrame of GainputView when trying to detect the iOS windows.
Coming from this line:

gainput/lib/source/gainput/GainputIos.mm

Line 37 in 4973ae4

UIWindow* window = [UIApplication sharedApplication].keyWindow;

I have replaced it with:
UIWindow* window = [[[UIApplication sharedApplication] delegate] window];
And it now detects the window correctly.

emscripten support

hi there.

Are there any plans to support emscripten? Meaning being able to compile a gainput app with the emcc compiler and have proper keyboard, mouse and gamepad support.

Windows build and multiple Joystick support?

It would be nice to have a section in readme for how to do Windows build. Also, it would be great to include a sample that shows how to select and use joystick if you have multiple ones. The reason this is important is because Unreal engine has a very poor support for game input devices, especially joysticks on Windows, and this library can really help bridge the gap.

Is the project still in active development?

I am worried, because this seems like such an awesome library, but the last commit has been made in February.

Documentation Ambiguity

What exactly SetDisplaySize does?..

"It sets display size" -> why document the name of the method? rather document the reason of existence of that method. The current description tell no new about the method

1)Does it creates a window with a given size? In that case, how can we create a window with GL or DX context? (says for a game)

2)Does it let Gainput to know the size of your pre-existing window? wich one?

OpenGL SwapBuffers interferes with input detection.

Hi,

So I have created a window using GLFW, I'm using the glfw win32 window handle to get the required HWND value. Whenever I setup my OpenGL renderer to contain a swap buffer (with a swap interval of 1) the input of the mouse is barely detected, and the input of the keys are pretty much non-existent

Here's an example of my OpenGL window creation

glfwWindowHint(GLFW_CONTEXT_VERSION_MINOR, 2);
glfwWindowHint(GLFW_OPENGL_FORWARD_COMPAT, GL_TRUE);
glfwWindowHint(GLFW_OPENGL_PROFILE, GLFW_OPENGL_CORE_PROFILE);

glfwSetErrorCallback(error_callback);

if (!glfwInit())
{
	glfwTerminate();
	exit(EXIT_FAILURE);
}

window = glfwCreateWindow(width, height, title, nullptr, nullptr);

int major = glfwGetWindowAttrib(window, GLFW_CONTEXT_VERSION_MAJOR);
int minor = glfwGetWindowAttrib(window, GLFW_CONTEXT_VERSION_MINOR);
int revision = glfwGetWindowAttrib(window, GLFW_CONTEXT_REVISION);
std::cout << "OpenGL Version " << major << "." << minor << "." << revision << std::endl;

glfwSetWindowUserPointer(window, this);

if (!window)
{
	glfwTerminate();
	exit(EXIT_FAILURE);
}

glfwMakeContextCurrent(window);
glfwSwapInterval(1);

glfwGetFramebufferSize(window, &width, &height);

And here's an example of my render function

glClearColor(0.0, 0.0, 0.0, 1.0);
glClear(GL_COLOR_BUFFER_BIT | GL_DEPTH_BUFFER_BIT);
glEnable(GL_CULL_FACE);
glEnable(GL_BLEND);
glBlendFunc(GL_SRC_ALPHA, GL_ONE_MINUS_SRC_ALPHA);

//Main render loop

glfwSwapBuffers(window);
glfwPollEvents();

If I remove the buffer swap it works as intended. Is there someone that could help me out with this? (I'm probably doing something wrong).

example links broken

The links on http://gainput.johanneskuhlmann.de/api/examples.html are broken.

Network events do not take into account timestamps for the transmission.

Network events do not take into account timestamps for the transmission. Therefore events are not played in the same manner as they are recorded. For example, this leads to wrong results when calculating touch speed.

A solution could be to record timestamps and play them with the same time diff as recorded.

MouseButtonLeft triggers KeyLeft true and keeps KeyLeft true when application looses focus

I have a bare bones cocos2d-x 3.9 project. I just noticed that once the running application loses focus, the GetBool() function starts to always return true. This doesn't stop when the application window comes back into focus.

Edit: Okay so heres what I see now. Left mouse actually causes the key left for keyboard input to register. So when I press left mouse button down, I actually get true for GetBool(KeyLeft). And then once the window looses focus, the GetBool(KeyLeft) stays registered as true until the application is closed.

Im using the latest version of gainput. Built on mac OS X 10.11.2.

Heres some snippets of how I'm using gainput.

enum Key
{
    KeyLeft
};

enum Mouse
{
    MouseLeft
};

gainput::InputManager manager;
const gainput::DeviceId keyboardId = manager.CreateDevice<gainput::InputDeviceKeyboard>();
const gainput::DeviceId mouseId = manager.CreateDevice<gainput::InputDeviceMouse>();

manager.SetDisplaySize(visibleSize.width, visibleSize.height);
map.MapBool(KeyLeft, keyboardId, gainput::KeyLeft);
map.MapBool(MouseLeft, mouseId, gainput::MouseButtonLeft);

void HelloWorld::update(float delta)
{
    manager.Update();]

// This returns true when the mouse left key is down. And then always returns true with the application looses focus
    if (map.GetBool(KeyLeft)) {
        log("LEFT");
    }

}

macOS build error

I have added gainput as git submodule, and my project build fails on

gainput/lib/source/gainput/mouse/GainputInputDeviceMouseMac.mm:110:27: error: no matching function for call to 'CGEventTapCreate'

Can i create an InputDevice to get raw input on linux without X11?

I tried to create a raw InputDeviceMouse with:

gainput::InputManager manager;
const auto id = manager.CreateDevice<gainput::InputDeviceMouse>(gainput::InputDevice::DV_RAW);
gainput::InputMap map(manager);
map.MapFloat(MouseX, id, gainput::MouseAxisX);

But both map.GetFloat(MouseX) and map.GetFloatDelta(MouseX) always return 0.

Can't differentiate multiple gamepad inputs on macOS

I connect two PS4 controllers to my mac (10.13) and create two gainput::InputDevicePad instances.

_gamepads.push_back(_inputManager->CreateDevice<gainput::InputDevicePad>());
_gamepads.push_back(_inputManager->CreateDevice<gainput::InputDevicePad>());

In a polling loop I print the state of the left and right analog sticks for the two devices.

auto device1 = _inputManager->GetDevice(_gamepads[0]);
auto device2 = _inputManager->GetDevice(_gamepads[1]);

vec2 leftStick1(device1->GetFloat(gainput::PadButtonLeftStickX),device1->GetFloat(gainput::PadButtonLeftStickY));
vec2 rightStick1(device1->GetFloat(gainput::PadButtonRightStickX),device1->GetFloat(gainput::PadButtonRightStickY));
vec2 leftStick2(device2->GetFloat(gainput::PadButtonLeftStickX),device2->GetFloat(gainput::PadButtonLeftStickY));
vec2 rightStick2(device2->GetFloat(gainput::PadButtonRightStickX),device2->GetFloat(gainput::PadButtonRightStickY));

cout << "leftStick1: " << leftStick1 << " rightStick1:" << rightStick1 << endl;
cout << "leftStick2: " << leftStick2 << " rightStick2:" << rightStick2 << endl << endl;

If I move the analog sticks on either gamepad 1 or 2, I see its position reflected in both device1 and device2.

gainput is, I guess, merging the state of the two controllers.

Am I creating the devices incorrectly?

Ignore last mouse event

i'm working on free fly camera, and i move the cursor on window center, but this generate an event and gainput update his listener with it, how can i ignore this event with gainput ? (or set internal mouse position to the center of my window ?)

Setup Visual Studio

How exactly do I configure Visual Studio to allow it to use this library? I've tried everything that I can find online and it just keeps saying that it can't find the header file.

unable to use with console applications on Windows

Hi,

I want to use your library to monitorize the keyboard on console application (without windows). is it possible or is it compulsory to have a HWND?

Mouse Scrolling

Hi,

I have one simple question: For mouse input i use a gainput::InputDeviceMouse object and id didn't find out, how to capture mouse scrolling (i work on Windows 7). I initialized the InputDeviceMouse with
gainput::InputDevice::AutoIndex and gainput::InputDevice::DV_STANDARD, as with gainput::InputDevice::DV_RAW it didn't work, at all (no mouse input was registered). As a next step i tested all mouse buttons, but no one did the wished result.

So: How is it possible to capture mouse scrolling?

Programmatically trigger input events?

Cool project! Is it possible to programmatically trigger input events, such as a mouse click or key press? My use case is to listen for user input events, and then be able to replay those same input events programmatically. Also, is it possible to trigger input events directly (from a mouse, keyboard or gamepad) without the first step of listening for them?

Per the docs, I noticed one of the features is "Supports recording and playback of input sequences", and I wanted to make sure I was understanding that correctly. Thanks!

The buttons MouseButtonWheelUp and MouseButtonWheelDown don't work.

The buttons gainput::MouseButtonWheelUp and gainput::MouseButtonWheelDown don't work.

My code example:
m_InputMap.MapBool ( EButton::MouseWheelUp, m_MouseId, gainput::MouseButtonWheelUp );
m_InputMap.MapBool ( EButton::MenuUp, m_PadId, gainput::PadButtonUp );
m_InputMap.MapBool ( EButton::MouseWheelDown, m_MouseId, gainput::MouseButtonWheelDown );
m_InputMap.MapBool ( EButton::MenuDown, m_PadId, gainput::PadButtonDown );

// Checks for a "menu up" input action.
bool IsMenuUp() { return m_InputMap.GetBoolWasDown( EButton::MenuUp ) || m_InputMap.GetBool( EButton::MouseWheelUp ); }
// Checks for a "menu down" input action.
bool IsMenuDown() { return m_InputMap.GetBoolWasDown( EButton::MenuDown ) || m_InputMap.GetBool( EButton::MouseWheelDown ); }

What am I doing wrong?

iOS/OSX InputManager::GetTime should use SYSTEM_CLOCK

CALENDAR_CLOCK is effected by time changes and isn't monotonic(could go backwards in time) which is kind of bad, SYSTEM_CLOCK is probably what you actually want here.

Does the API support a way to enumerate connected devices?

Multiple devices can be registered with the InputManager by means of repeated calls to CreateDevice(). I don't see any clear way to verify that a device is in fact a real connected device, though. It seems like no matter how many devices I register of any type (significantly more than are actually present), the variant of the registered device is always DV_STANDARD, never DV_NULL.

Am I thinking about this completely the wrong way, or is there something to check device validity that I'm not seeing, or is this genuinely a missing feature?

Not detecting input on Mac OSX 10.10.5

Title pretty much says it all. Everything builds just find, I can setup an input manager and map inputs, but when I check for input, nothing happens.

Compile error

Hello. I'm developing game for android by NDK and OGRE 3D. I try just include header file gainput/gainput.h in my source and when I started compile application, compiler show error: gainput/lib/include/gainput/GainputContainers.h:233:1: error: global qualification of class name is invalid before '{' token

When I configured Gainput, I had problem with path to toolchain arm-linux-androideabi-4.6. Path in wscript point to android-ndk/toolchains/arm-linux-androideabi-4.6/prebuilt/linux-x86/bin, but I have it in android-ndk/toolchains/arm-linux-androideabi-4.6/prebuilt/linux-x86_64/bin. And I replace path in wscript for solve.

My target api is 14 (Android 4.0). I'm using GNU/Linux.

"Permission Denied" got me a strange feeling, so I started cmd as admin and reconfigured and rebuild release. As a result, the builkd was successful So I want to suggest adding this useful piece of information to the description.

Symbol problems on Windows, Also weird filesizes

Hey,
I've built your library on windows using cmake, default settings. Compiled it in msvc2013.
The first thing that I noticed was:
The static library file is almost 4 MB in size. The dynamic library file is 200kb + 200kb. Is this correct?

Next issue that I am having:
When using the static library, It seems that some xinput symbols cant be found. Im not sure how i could fix this?

gainputstatic_d.lib(GainputInputDevicePad.obj) : error LNK2019: unresolved external symbol _XInputGetState@8 referenced in function "public: virtual void __thiscall gainput::InputDevicePadImplWin::Update

Edit:
It works all fine with the dynamic library. Guess im gonna be using that for now! Would be great to have a proper static lib though, since i prefer not having lots of .dlls around.
Somehow cmake seems to be messing up the static compile for windows, might be worth looking into.

Thank you very much for your time

Angled brackets vs "" in includes

Hi,

First of all, thanks for this great library! I'm trying to compile gainput on OSX and I'm hitting an error about headers not being correctly found:

"'gainput/gainput.h' file not found with include; use "quotes" instead"

It seems like you use angled brackets in gainput which Xcode treats as system headers. There's an option called Always Search User Paths (deprecated) that fixes the issue but ideally I wouldn't need to rely on this behavior as it's also marked as deprecated so will disappear in the future.

Thanks!
