Retrieves an IGameInputDevice interface based on a matching platform string.
Syntax
HRESULT FindDeviceFromPlatformString(
LPCWSTR value,
IGameInputDevice** device
);
Parameters
value _In_
Type: LPCWSTR
Platform string to match.
device _COM_Outptr_
Type: IGameInputDevice**
Returned IGameInputDevice interface.
Return value
Type: HRESULT
Function result.
Remarks
After it is obtained, the IGameInputDevice instance is used as a filter in the polling or event-based APIs (to retrieve input), or used directly to access device-specific information and features. If the specified platform string cannot be matched with any known GameInput device objects, this method returns a NULL pointer. The method queries the local state within the calling process and returns quickly, so it is safe to call from time-sensitive contexts.
