Listening to Inputs from a Gamepad

Works the same as listening to mice.
There may be some differences in button layout were an A button can only be checked with GamepadEvent.BUTTON_X, but this should be really rare.
XInput devices are currently limited. See the related page to DirectInput and XInput.
public class Adapter implements GamepadListener {
@Override
public void onAnalogStickPush(GamepadEvent event) {
int stick = event.getAnalogStick();
Direction direction = event.getDirection();
float intensity = event.getIntensity();
if(stick == GamepadEvent.ANALOG_STICK_LEFT) {
System.out.println("The left analog stick was pushed into the direction " + direction.toString() + " with an intensity of " + intensity);
} else if(stick == GamepadEvent.ANALOG_STICK_RIGHT) {
System.out.println("The right analog stick was pushed into the direction " + direction.toString() + " with an intensity of " + intensity);
}
}
@Override
public void onButtonPress(GamepadEvent event) {
System.out.println("Pressed " + event.getButton());
}
@Override
public void onButtonRelease(GamepadEvent event) {
System.out.println("Released " + event.getButton());
}
@Override
public void onPOVPress(GamepadEvent event) {
System.out.println("POV pressed in direction " + event.getDirection());
}
@Override
public void onPOVRelease(GamepadEvent event) {
System.out.println("POV released for direction " + event.getDirection());
}
}DeviceManager.create();
DeviceManager.addGamepadListener(new Adapter());
DeviceManager.getGamepads().forEach(Gamepad::startListening);
// YOUR CODE
DeviceManager.destroy();DeviceManager.create();
List<Gamepad> gamepads = DeviceManager.getGamepads();
Gamepad myGamepad = gamepads.get(0); // the first gamepad
myGamepad.addGamepadListener(new Adapter());
myGamepad.startListening();
// When we listen to a single gamepad, we can ask which buttons are currently down.
boolean isXDown = myGamepad.isButtonDown(GamepadEvent.BUTTON_X);
// YOUR CODE
DeviceManager.destroy();
