How can i handle events on a Joystick?

Question

The controller is detectable, can even print out the "getName()" of each component. I want certain/ specific events to occure when a button is pressed or released..

Answer 1

I believe you are looking for the Event Container and multiple buttons similar to the construction I found via stackoverflow... not to be misconstrued with the Javascript set up. The user asking actually has a nicely structured Java code and just needed a simple fix.
