sixaxis or userinput with BD-J

[jmdetiege]

Hello,

After file access,internet access, it's now time to user input, sixaxis/dualshock use with BD-J.

After a lot of search, i'm trying some samples (there are few sample) with ControllerListener, UserEvent, UserEventListener but nothing work.

Somebody have some working samples, some support where i can found it ?

Thanks a lot.

UserEventListener is right. You need to do this in initXlet:

UserEventRepository userEventRepo = new UserEventRepository("evt");
userEventRepo.addAllArrowKeys();
userEventRepo.addAllColourKeys();
userEventRepo.addAllNumericKeys();
userEventRepo.addKey(HRcEvent.VK_ENTER);
userEventRepo.addKey(HRcEvent.VK_POPUP_MENU);
EventManager.getInstance().addUserEventListener(this, userEventRepo);

Then the method userEventReceived() will be called in this when the direction keys or X/square or color keys (only available as virtual keys with the sixaxis) are pressed.

Hello

I implement the function but i'm not able to display a message on the screen.

I have this in my Xlet:

public class MyXlet implements Xlet, UserEventListener{

private HScene scene;
private Container gui;
private XletContext context;
private final ArrayList messages = new ArrayList();
private UserEventRepository userEventRepo ;


public void initXlet(XletContext context) {
this.context = context;

scene = HSceneFactory.getInstance().getDefaultHScene();


messages.add("Hi, this is a small homebrew test.");
messages.add("let's start ");
messages.add("");

gui = new Screen(messages);

gui.setSize(1920, 1080); // BD screen size
scene.add(gui, BorderLayout.CENTER);


try {
userEventRepo = new UserEventRepository("evt");
userEventRepo.addAllArrowKeys();
userEventRepo.addKey(HRcEvent.VK_ENTER);
//add input event

/*userEventRepo.addAllColourKeys();
userEventRepo.addAllNumericKeys();

userEventRepo.addKey(HRcEvent.VK_POPUP_MENU);*/

} catch (Exception e) {
messages.add(e.getMessage());
}


scene.validate();


}

public void startXlet() {


EventManager.getInstance().addUserEventListener(this, userEventRepo);
gui.setVisible(true);
scene.setVisible(true);
gui.requestFocus();
}

public void pauseXlet() {
gui.setVisible(false);
//EventManager.getInstance().removeUserEventListener(userEventRepo);
}

public void destroyXlet(boolean unconditional) {
scene.remove(gui);
scene = null;
}

Without knowing what your "Screen" class looks like, I expect you need to repaint
the component after adding stuff to messages for them to appear on screen.

[jmdetiege]

Tks again,

yes i don't give the Screen classe code because this is the default Screen class gived with th bd-j samples.
There's a "Paint" function in this class.

I'm tried to use it and say you it's ok.

I'm thinking that's fired up when a message was put in the list.

A+

[jmdetiege]

Yes it's work fine, i'm just have to repaint my Screen object.

Another question, do you know how to ask and save a user input ?

Tks again mc !!
