title: Android NDK joystick events
body: <p>Does anyone know how to capture joystick events from the Android NDK?</p>
  
  <p>The NDK does not contain any APIs to let me extract axis information from an AMotionEvent. (AXIS_X and AXIS_Y are mapped to the pointer (x,y) pair, but I need more than that.) There are Java APIs to do this... but when I'm using the NDK, events aren't delivered to Java-land, so I simply never receive them.</p>
  
  <p>And I haven't found any way to turn an NDK AMotionEvent into a Java MotionEvent so that I can pass it through to Java via JNI and extract the information that way.</p>
  
  <p>I absolutely have to get joystick information to my app, but so far I've found no way to do so, no matter how evil. Any ideas?</p>
