Although this is for the official adapter, the clones that mimic the official adapter may be eligible. For instance, if using Mayflash's GameCube Controller Adapter for Wii U and PC USB, set it to Wii U mode before following these instructions.

With vJoy drivers installed and the GameCube USB Adapter Driver software running, the GameCube controller will act like a generic gamepad which can be configured in Dolphin like any other controller. Unlike vJoy, Dolphin's native support will offer more straightforward and added missing supports from vJoy (i.e. force feedback), and offer better latency. vJoy and Dolphin's native support conflict with one another, so to use the native support in Dolphin, vJoy's drivers must be stopped beforehand in GameCube USB Adapter Driver's window. The GameCube USB Adapter Driver version up to v3.0 and later will use Zadig during its setup. Skip to "Dolphin setup" below if you haven't encountered any problems with it.
