finite_gamepad_key_valid

Note

finite_gamepad_key_valid was added in v0.7.0

The finite_gamepad_key_valid function checks if a FiniteGamepadKey is valid

bool finite_gamepad_key_valid(FiniteGamepadKey key)

Parameters

Type	Description
FiniteGamepadKey key	The FiniteGamepadKey to check the state of

Code Example

bool withGP = finite_gamepad_init(myShell);
myShell->canHomeMenu = false;

if (!withGP) {
    FINITE_LOG_ERROR("Can't poll controller data");
}

if (finite_gamepad_key_valid(FINITE_BTN_A)) {
    FINITE_LOG("A btn is valid");
}

Specification

Developers should ALWAYS call finite_gamepad_key_valid to verify a FiniteGamepadKey’s existence in the internal finite_gamepad_key_lookup table. Just because an enum exists does not mean that the evdev code for that input option is present.

As of v0.7.0, the finite controller hasnt been finished. As such theres been no testing for modular controllers. It’s expected that buttons should work as written, however.
