I am going to assume you are talking about Windows. I guess the first thing to make sure is that he has winmm.dll in his computer. If not create a package with winmm.dll in it.
Why winmm.dll? Take a look at the following code from the initilization in targets\glfw\template\glfw\lib\win32\win32_init.c, function: _glfwInitLibraries
// winmm.dll (for joystick and timer support)
#ifndef _GLFW_NO_DLOAD_WINMM
_glfwLibrary.Libs.winmm = LoadLibrary( "winmm.dll" );
if( _glfwLibrary.Libs.winmm != NULL )
{
_glfwLibrary.Libs.joyGetDevCapsA = (JOYGETDEVCAPSA_T)
GetProcAddress( _glfwLibrary.Libs.winmm, "joyGetDevCapsA" );
_glfwLibrary.Libs.joyGetPos = (JOYGETPOS_T)
GetProcAddress( _glfwLibrary.Libs.winmm, "joyGetPos" );
_glfwLibrary.Libs.joyGetPosEx = (JOYGETPOSEX_T)
GetProcAddress( _glfwLibrary.Libs.winmm, "joyGetPosEx" );
_glfwLibrary.Libs.timeGetTime = (TIMEGETTIME_T)
GetProcAddress( _glfwLibrary.Libs.winmm, "timeGetTime" );
if( _glfwLibrary.Libs.joyGetDevCapsA == NULL ||
_glfwLibrary.Libs.joyGetPos == NULL ||
_glfwLibrary.Libs.joyGetPosEx == NULL ||
_glfwLibrary.Libs.timeGetTime == NULL )
{
FreeLibrary( _glfwLibrary.Libs.winmm );
_glfwLibrary.Libs.winmm = NULL;
return GL_FALSE;
}
}
else
{
return GL_FALSE;
}
#endif // _GLFW_NO_DLOAD_WINMM
I guess that will be the starting point for debugging, after that you need to look into win32_joystick.c, firstly function _glfwJoystickPresent.
Hope it is helpful.
