SIMCONNECT_RECV_GET_INPUT

SIMCONNECT_RECV_GET_INPUT_EVENT

The SIMCONNECT_RECV_GET_INPUT_EVENT structure is used to return the value of a specific input event.

Syntax

struct SIMCONNECT_RECV_GET_INPUT_EVENT : public SIMCONNECT_RECV
{
    DWORD   RequestID;
    SIMCONNECT_INPUT_EVENT_TYPE Type;
    PVOID   Value;
};

Members

Member	Description
`RequestID`	Specifies the client defined request ID.
`Type`	One member of the `SIMCONNECT_INPUT_EVENT_TYPE` enumeration type. This is used to cast the `Value` to the correct type.
`Value`	The value of the requested input event, which should be cast to the correct format (float / string).

Remarks

This struct will be the response to a call to SimConnect_GetInputEvent. The value stored in this struct must be cast on the client side in the correct format (as a float or a string, only).

NOTE: In C#, Value is an object array containing one uint value. This value must be converted to a byte array before being converted to the correct type.

If it is a string, it can have a maximum length of only 32 characters (including \0). Note that if the unit is different to the expected in-simulation unit, it must be converted to the appropriate unit on the clients side.
