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 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.
