pyglet.input.Joystick and cocos events

[alex23]

Hi everyone,

I'm currently trying to get the Joystick input devices for pyglet 1.2
to play nicely with cocos. I've naively tried the following:

from cocos.director import director
from cocos import scene
from cocos import layer
from cocos import text
from pyglet import input

class JoystickTest(layer.Layer):
is_event_handler = True

def __init__(self):
super( JoystickTest, self ).__init__()
self.display = text.Label(
'--',
font_name='Times New Roman',
font_size=32,
anchor_x='center', anchor_y='center',
position = (320, 240),
)
self.add( self.display )

def on_enter(self):
super(JoystickTest, self).on_enter()
self.joy = input.get_joysticks()[0]
self.joy.on_joyaxis_motion = self.on_joyaxis_motion
self.joy.open()

def on_joyaxis_motion(self, joystick, axis, value):
self.update_text(axis)

def update_text(self, text):
print text
self.display.element.text = text

director.init()
director.run( scene.Scene( JoystickTest() ) )

The update_text call is printing to the console but the Label itself
isn't updating. I _thought_ using joystick.open() would be enough to
register it to the same event loop as cocos but I'm not entirely sure
if it is.

Any help would be greatly appreciated, thanks.

Theres a bug in pyglet where the display is not updated, see

http://code.google.com/p/pyglet/issues/detail?id=562

Add 

      self.schedule(lambda x: 0)

as last line in JoystickTest.__init__

Ah, thank you. My fault for assuming it lay on the cocos/pyglet
border.

I ended up chancing into this but wasn't sure if it would interfere
with cocos' event loop or anything else.

Cheers for your help.
