Overview vJoy is a device driver that bridges the gap between any device that is not a joystick and an application that requires a joystick. If you develop an application for windows that requires user physical input you should consider incorporating vJoy into your product.
vJoy can be incorporated as-is or modified. vJoy can be used with fixed configuration or configurable. It also comes with tools and example code that feeds it with data and configure the virtual joystick.
vJoy is implemented as a joystick virtual-device driver for windows (XP and up) that does not represent an actual hardware device.
The vJoy device is seen by Windows as a standard joystick device. However, it receives its signals through a simple software interface. Coders can take advantage of this interface by modifying the provided sample code.

Description

This project was originally designed to provide an open-source replacement for PPJoy. The product, at this point, consists of virtual joystick devices that is seen by the system as a standard joystick but its position-data is written to it by a feeder application. An existing feeder application that takes advantage of this product is SmartPropoPlus. If you are an application writer you can very easily write an application that controls a joystick (e.g. mouse-to-joystick, keyboard-to-joystick). If you are a beginner in device drivers you can take this code and enhance it to support more (or less) axes, buttons or POVs.
