Use something like below to pass needed enumerators and constants to the AGS Editor using something like below for the Windows DLL.

const char* scriptHeader =
  "//------------------------;\r\n"
  "//add enum for ePOV here;\r\n"
  "//------------------------;\r\n"
  ;

int  AGS_EditorStartup(IAGSEditor* lpEditor)
{
  // User has checked the plugin to use it in their game

  // If it's an earlier version than what we need, abort.
  if (lpEditor->version < 1)
    return -1;

  editor = lpEditor;
  editor->RegisterScriptHeader(scriptHeader);

  // Return 0 to indicate success
  return 0;
}

Use ifdefs to make the builds for Windows and Linux (something like below):

#ifdef __linux__ 
    //linux code goes here
#elif _WIN32
    // windows code goes here
#else

#endif

Is there a particular reason why you only support i386 for now?

I was able to build libagsjoy.so successfully on amd64 by just installing libsdl2-dev:

$ file libagsjoy.so 
libagsjoy.so: ELF 64-bit LSB shared object, x86-64, version 1 (SYSV), dynamically linked, BuildID[sha1]=a8ad0fb065e6572a7c72c71588639c1c0cb26edc, not stripped

This was on Debian buster (testing), however, not Ubuntu 16.04.

I think its called rumble or vibration, as this would give immersion to ags games using joysticks.

Some discussion here: https://discourse.libsdl.org/t/difference-between-joysticks-and-game-controllers/24028/2

This should give better future proof support and cross plataform support for Gamepads

Give support for MFI controllers

Apparently OSX is compatible with SDL2: https://wiki.libsdl.org/FAQMacOSX

Onitake suggested me to try using clang to build.

clang++ agsjoy.cpp -Wall -framework SDL2 -dynamiclib -o libagsjoy.dylib

SDL2 has to be shipped with the application (the game) - I still need to findout how.

This plugin won't work if the SDL2 Digi audio driver is being used on Linux.

Trying to Poll Events crashes the computer, as is it won't poll events but it also won't work - will simply do nothing.
