joydevs[id].name value comes from EVIOCGNAME iotcl, and is the product name.
I think joystick device path qualifies as a "Friendly name for the instance" (as defined for tszInstanceName on MSDN).
If not, please tell me and I will extend the patch to generate a "Joystick %i" name, or maybe put joydevs[id].name in both fields.
- strcpy(lpddi->tszInstanceName, joydevs[id].name);
- strcpy(lpddi->tszProductName, joydevs[id].device);
- strcpy(lpddi->tszInstanceName, joydevs[id].device);
- strcpy(lpddi->tszProductName, joydevs[id].name);
No this is not entirely correct. Native doesn't return any device paths. But it does return proper joystick name:
Wine: Instance: Logitech Logitech Dual Action ProductName: /dev/input/event7
Win XP: Instance: Logitech Dual Action USB ProductName: Logitech Dual Action USB
Another joystick: Wine: Instance: Logitech Logitech MOMO Racing ProductName: /dev/input/event7
Win XP: Instance: Logitech MOMO Racing USB ProductName: Logitech MOMO Racing USB
So I'd suggest copying name into both places. I think some applications looking for particular information there. And append "evdev?" at the end so we can tell how it's handled.
