I have a Logitech joystick; model &quot;Extreme 3D PRO.&quot; The joystick connects by way of USB port on my PC. My programming environment is Visual C++ 6.0. I would like to read the joystick's exact position from C++ code. The joystick profiler that came with the joystick will only translate joystick buttons and control changes into single or multiple keystrokes. The profiler’s keystroke method only gives me a repeated key in one of four joystick directions, so using the profiler will not do what I need. Is there a public domain C++ library that can help me read the buttons, the POV, the throttle, and especially the joystick position, so I can simultaneously move a 2 axis gimbal in the appropriate direction?

Kernel and system programming is the process of creating the software necessary for a computer or device to function and operate other programs. Some operating systems (such as Microsoft Windows) are proprietary, but others, such as the various Linux distributions, are open source.
