Syntax

int SDL_JoystickGetBall(SDL_Joystick *joystick,
                        int ball, int *dx, int *dy);

Function Parameters

SDL_Joystick * joystick the SDL_Joystick to query.
int ball the ball index to query; ball indices start at index 0.
int * dx stores the difference in the x axis position since the last poll.
int * dy stores the difference in the y axis position since the last poll.

Return Value

Trackballs can only return relative motion since the last call to SDL_JoystickGetBall(), these motion deltas are placed into dx and dy.

Most joysticks do not have trackballs.
