Question

So i have simple application, just a few lines:

using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.ComponentModel;
using System.Data;
using System.Drawing;
using System.Linq;
using System.Text;
using System.Windows.Forms;
using Microsoft.DirectX.DirectInput;

namespace asdasd
{
    public partial class Form1 : Form
    {
        public Device joystick;
        public Form1()
        {
            InitializeComponent();
        }

        private void Form1_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
        {
            foreach (
                DeviceInstance di in
                Manager.GetDevices(
                    DeviceClass.GameControl,
                    EnumDevicesFlags.AttachedOnly))
            {
                joystick = new Device(di.InstanceGuid);
                break;
            }

            if (joystick == null)
            {
                throw new Exception("No joystick found.");
            }
        }
    }
}

and i try to get the active joystick on my computer, but i get error:

i have the assembly Microsoft.DirectX.DirectInput and i have directX SDK 2010 installed.

Can someone tell me where is the problem?

Try adding this to the config file:

(if configuration already exists, just merge these in)
And, maybe it’s not the right place, but just take a look at XNA… Things are usually much easier with that.

I couldn’t paste the XML directly here, it doesn’t show up.
