SDL_GetSensorID(3)

✨ NAME ✨

SDL_GetSensorID β€” bestie, it gets the instance ID of a sensor. that's it, that's the whole vibe πŸ’–


🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

okay so you pull in the header like this:

#include <SDL3/SDL_sensor.h>

and then the function itself is giving:

SDL_SensorID SDL_GetSensorID(SDL_Sensor *sensor);

πŸŽ€ FUNCTION PARAMETERS πŸŽ€

  • sensor β€” the SDL_Sensor object you want to inspect, queen. hand it over and let her be perceived πŸ‘‘

πŸ’… RETURN VALUE πŸ’…

she returns the sensor instance ID, periodt. but if things go sideways she returns 0 on failure β€” and no, 0 is not a cute little ID, it's the fail signal 😭. when that happens you gotta call SDL_GetError() for more information, fr fr. don't just sit there guessing, go ask the error function, she always knows πŸ’€


🌈 AVAILABILITY 🌈

this function has been available since SDL 3.2.0, so if you're on something older... no she's not there yet, sorry babe πŸ¦‹
