NAME
al_get_joystick - Allegro 5 API
SYNOPSIS
#include <allegro5/allegro.h>
ALLEGRO_JOYSTICK * al_get_joystick(int num)
DESCRIPTION
Get a handle for a joystick on the system. The number may be from 0 to
al_get_num_joysticks(3)-1. If successful a pointer to a joystick
object is returned, which represents a physical device. Otherwise NULL
is returned.
The handle and the index are only incidentally linked. After
al_reconfigure_joysticks(3) is called, al_get_joystick(3) may return
handles in a different order, and handles which represent disconnected
devices will not be returned.
