Class InputControlExtensions

Various extension methods for InputControl. Mostly low-level routines.

Inheritance

InputControlExtensions

Namespace: UnityEngine.InputSystem

Syntax

public static class InputControlExtensions

Methods

AccumulateValueInEvent(InputControl<Single>, Void*, InputEventPtr)

Modify newState to write an accumulated value of the control rather than the value currently found in the event.

Declaration

public static void AccumulateValueInEvent(this InputControl<float> control, void *currentStatePtr, InputEventPtr newState)

Parameters

Type	Name	Description
InputControl<Single>	control	Control to perform the accumulation on.
Void*	currentStatePtr	Memory containing the control's current state. See currentStatePtr.
InputEventPtr	newState	Event containing the new state about to be written to the device.

Remarks

This method reads the current, unprocessed value of the control from currentStatePtr and then adds it to the value of the control found in newState.

Note that the method does nothing if a value for the control is not contained in newState. This can be the case, for example, for DeltaStateEvents.

Exceptions

Type	Condition
ArgumentNullException	`control` is `null`.

CheckStateIsAtDefault(InputControl)

Check whether the memory of the given control is in its default state.

Declaration

public static bool CheckStateIsAtDefault(this InputControl control)

Parameters

Type	Name	Description
InputControl	control	An input control on a device that's been added to the system (see added).

Returns

Type	Description
Boolean	True if the state memory of the given control corresponds to the control's default.

Remarks

This method is a cheaper check than actually reading out the value from the control and checking whether it is the same value as the default value. The method bypasses all value reading and simply performs a trivial memory comparison of the control's current state memory to the default state memory stored for the control.

Note that the default state for the memory of a control does not necessary need to be all zeroes. For example, a stick axis may be stored as an unsigned 8-bit value with the memory state corresponding to a 0 value being 127.

Exceptions

Type	Condition
ArgumentNullException	`control` is `null`.

CheckStateIsAtDefault(InputControl, Void, Void)

Check if the given state corresponds to the default state of the control.

Declaration

public static bool CheckStateIsAtDefault(this InputControl control, void *statePtr, void *maskPtr = default(void *))

Parameters

Type	Name	Description
InputControl	control	Control to check the state for in `statePtr`.
Void*	statePtr	Pointer to a state buffer containing the stateBlock for `control`.
Void*	maskPtr	If not null, only bits set to `false` (!) in the buffer will be taken into account. This can be used to mask out noise, i.e. every bit that is set in the mask is considered to represent noise.

Returns

Type	Description
Boolean	True if the control/device is in its default state.

Remarks

Note that default does not equate all zeroes. Stick axes, for example, that are stored as unsigned byte values will have their resting position at 127 and not at 0. This is why we explicitly store default state in a memory buffer instead of assuming zeroes.

CheckStateIsAtDefaultIgnoringNoise(InputControl)

Declaration

public static bool CheckStateIsAtDefaultIgnoringNoise(this InputControl control)

Parameters

Type	Name	Description
InputControl	control

Returns

Type	Description
Boolean

CheckStateIsAtDefaultIgnoringNoise(InputControl, Void*)

Check if the given state corresponds to the default state of the control or has different state only for parts marked as noise.

Declaration

public static bool CheckStateIsAtDefaultIgnoringNoise(this InputControl control, void *statePtr)

Parameters

Type	Name	Description
InputControl	control	Control to check the state for in `statePtr`.
Void*	statePtr	Pointer to a state buffer containing the stateBlock for `control`.

Returns

Type	Description
Boolean	True if the control/device is in its default state (ignoring any bits marked as noise).

Remarks

CompareState(InputControl, Void, Void)

Declaration

public static bool CompareState(this InputControl control, void *statePtr, void *maskPtr = default(void *))

Parameters

Type	Name	Description
InputControl	control
Void*	statePtr
Void*	maskPtr

Returns

Type	Description
Boolean

CompareState(InputControl, Void, Void, Void*)

Compare the control's stored state in firstStatePtr to secondStatePtr.

Declaration

public static bool CompareState(this InputControl control, void *firstStatePtr, void *secondStatePtr, void *maskPtr = default(void *))

Parameters

Type	Name	Description
InputControl	control
Void*	firstStatePtr	Memory containing the control's stateBlock.
Void*	secondStatePtr	Memory containing the control's stateBlock
Void*	maskPtr	Optional mask. If supplied, it will be used to mask the comparison between `firstStatePtr` and `secondStatePtr` such that any bit not set in the mask will be ignored even if different between the two states. This can be used, for example, to ignore noise in the state (noiseMaskPtr).

Returns

Type	Description
Boolean	True if the state is equivalent in both memory buffers.

Remarks

Unlike CompareValue(Void*, Void*), this method only compares raw memory state. If used on a stick, for example, it may mean that this method returns false for two stick values that would compare equal using CompareValue(Void*, Void*) (e.g. if both stick values fall below the deadzone).

CompareStateIgnoringNoise(InputControl, Void*)

Compare the control's current state to the state stored in statePtr.

Declaration

public static bool CompareStateIgnoringNoise(this InputControl control, void *statePtr)

Parameters

Type	Name	Description
InputControl	control
Void*	statePtr	State memory containing the control's stateBlock.

Returns

Type	Description
Boolean	True if

Remarks

This method ignores noise

This method will not actually read values but will instead compare state directly as it is stored in memory. ReadValue() is not invoked and thus processors will not be run.

CopyState(InputDevice, Void*, Int32)

Copy the state of the device to the given memory buffer.

Declaration

public static void CopyState(this InputDevice device, void *buffer, int bufferSizeInBytes)

Parameters

Type	Name	Description
InputDevice	device	An input device.
Void*	buffer	Buffer to copy the state of the device to.
Int32	bufferSizeInBytes	Size of `buffer` in bytes.

Remarks

The method will copy however much fits into the given buffer. This means that if the state of the device is larger than what fits into the buffer, not all of the device's state is copied.

Exceptions

Type	Condition
ArgumentException	`bufferSizeInBytes` is less than or equal to 0.
ArgumentNullException	`device` is `null`.

CopyState<TState>(InputDevice, out TState)

Copy the state of the device to the given struct.

Declaration

public static void CopyState<TState>(this InputDevice device, out TState state)
    where TState : struct, IInputStateTypeInfo

Parameters

Type	Name	Description
InputDevice	device	An input device.
TState	state	Struct to copy the state of the device into.

Type Parameters

Name	Description
TState	A state struct type such as MouseState.

Remarks

This method will copy memory verbatim into the memory of the given struct. It will copy whatever memory of the device fits into the given struct.

Exceptions

Type	Condition
ArgumentException	The state format of `TState` does not match the state form of `device`.
ArgumentNullException	`device` is `null`.

EnumerateChangedControls(InputEventPtr, InputDevice, Single)

Go through all controls in the given eventPtr that have changed value.

Declaration

public static InputControlExtensions.InputEventControlCollection EnumerateChangedControls(this InputEventPtr eventPtr, InputDevice device = null, float magnitudeThreshold = 0F)

Parameters

Type	Name	Description
InputEventPtr	eventPtr	An input event. Must be a StateEvent or DeltaStateEvent.
InputDevice	device	Input device from which to enumerate controls. If this is `null`, then the deviceId from the given `eventPtr` will be used to locate the device via GetDeviceById(Int32). If the device cannot be found, an exception will be thrown. Note that type of device must match the state stored in the given event.
Single	magnitudeThreshold	If not zero, minimum actuation threshold (see EvaluateMagnitude()) that a control must reach (as per value in the given `eventPtr`) in order for it to be included in the enumeration.

Returns

Type	Description
InputControlExtensions.InputEventControlCollection	An enumerator for the controls that have changed values in `eventPtr`.

Remarks

This method is a shorthand for calling EnumerateControls(InputEventPtr, InputControlExtensions.Enumerate, InputDevice, Single) with IgnoreControlsInCurrentState.

// Detect button presses.
InputSystem.onEvent +=
  (eventPtr, device) =>
  {
      // Ignore anything that is not a state event.
      var eventType = eventPtr.type;
      if (eventType != StateEvent.Type && eventType != DeltaStateEvent.Type)
          return;

      // Find all changed controls actuated above the button press threshold.
      foreach (var control in eventPtr.EnumerateChangedControls
          (device: device, magnitudeThreshold: InputSystem.settings.defaultButtonPressThreshold))
          if (control is ButtonControl button)
              Debug.Log($"Button {button} was pressed");
  }

EnumerateControls(InputEventPtr, InputControlExtensions.Enumerate, InputDevice, Single)

Go through the controls that have values in eventPtr, apply the given filters, and return each control one by one.

Declaration

public static InputControlExtensions.InputEventControlCollection EnumerateControls(this InputEventPtr eventPtr, InputControlExtensions.Enumerate flags, InputDevice device = null, float magnitudeThreshold = 0F)

Parameters

Type	Name	Description
InputEventPtr	eventPtr	An input event. Must be a StateEvent or DeltaStateEvent.
InputControlExtensions.Enumerate	flags	Filter settings that determine which controls to return.
InputDevice	device	Input device from which to enumerate controls. If this is `null`, then the deviceId from the given `eventPtr` will be used to locate the device via GetDeviceById(Int32). If the device cannot be found, an exception will be thrown. Note that type of device must match the state stored in the given event.
Single	magnitudeThreshold	If not zero, minimum actuation threshold (see EvaluateMagnitude()) that a control must reach (as per value in the given `eventPtr`) in order for it to be included in the enumeration.

Returns

Type	Description
InputControlExtensions.InputEventControlCollection	An enumerator for the controls with values in `eventPtr`.

Remarks

This method is much more efficient than manually iterating over the controls of device and locating the ones that have changed in eventPtr. See InputControlExtensions.InputEventControlEnumerator for details.

This method will not allocate GC memory and can safely be used with foreach loops.

Exceptions

Type	Condition
ArgumentNullException	`eventPtr` is a `null` pointer (see valid).
ArgumentException	`eventPtr` is not a StateEvent and not a DeltaStateEvent -or- `device` is `null` and no device was found with a deviceId matching that of deviceId found in `eventPtr`.

FindControlsRecursive<TControl>(InputControl, IList<TControl>, Func<TControl, Boolean>)

Declaration

public static void FindControlsRecursive<TControl>(this InputControl parent, IList<TControl> controls, Func<TControl, bool> predicate)
    where TControl : InputControl

Parameters

Type	Name	Description
InputControl	parent
IList<TControl>	controls
Func<TControl, Boolean>	predicate

Type Parameters

Name	Description
TControl

FindInParentChain<TControl>(InputControl)

Find a control of the given type in control hierarchy of control.

Declaration

public static TControl FindInParentChain<TControl>(this InputControl control)
    where TControl : InputControl

Parameters

Type	Name	Description
InputControl	control	Control whose parents to inspect.

Returns

Type	Description
TControl

Type Parameters

Name	Description
TControl	Type of control to look for. Actual control type can be subtype of this.

Remarks

The found control of type TControl which may be either control itself or one of its parents. If no such control was found, returns null.

Exceptions

Type	Condition
ArgumentNullException	`control` is `null`.

GetAllButtonPresses(InputEventPtr, Single, Boolean)

Enumerate all pressed buttons in the given event.

Declaration

public static IEnumerable<InputControl> GetAllButtonPresses(this InputEventPtr eventPtr, float magnitude = -1F, bool buttonControlsOnly = true)

Parameters

Type	Name	Description
InputEventPtr	eventPtr	An event. Must be a StateEvent or DeltaStateEvent.
Single	magnitude	The threshold value that a button must be actuated by to be considered pressed.
Boolean	buttonControlsOnly	Whether the method should only consider button controls.

Returns

Type	Description
IEnumerable<InputControl>	An enumerable collection containing all buttons that were pressed in the given event.

Remarks

Returns an empty enumerable if the eventPtr is not a StateEvent or DeltaStateEvent.

Exceptions

Type	Condition
ArgumentNullException	`eventPtr` is a `null` pointer.
ArgumentException	The InputDevice referenced by the deviceId in the event cannot be found.

GetFirstButtonPressOrNull(InputEventPtr, Single, Boolean)

Get the first pressed button from the given event or null if the event doesn't contain a new button press.

Declaration

public static InputControl GetFirstButtonPressOrNull(this InputEventPtr eventPtr, float magnitude = -1F, bool buttonControlsOnly = true)

Parameters

Type	Name	Description
InputEventPtr	eventPtr	An event. Must be a StateEvent or DeltaStateEvent.
Single	magnitude	The threshold value that a control must be actuated by (see EvaluateMagnitude()) to be considered pressed. If not given, defaults to defaultButtonPressPoint.
Boolean	buttonControlsOnly	Whether the method should only consider ButtonControls. Otherwise, any InputControl that has an actuation (see EvaluateMagnitude()) equal to or greater than the given `magnitude` will be considered a pressed button. This is 'true' by default.

Returns

Type	Description
InputControl	The control that was pressed.

Remarks

Buttons will be evaluated in the order that they appear in the devices layout i.e. the bit position of each control in the devices state memory. For example, in the gamepad state, button north (bit position 4) will be evaluated before button east (bit position 5), so if both buttons were pressed in the given event, button north would be returned. Note that the function returns null if the eventPtr is not a StateEvent or DeltaStateEvent.

Exceptions

Type	Condition
ArgumentNullException	`eventPtr` is a `null` pointer.
ArgumentException	The InputDevice referenced by the deviceId in the event cannot be found.

GetStatePtrFromStateEvent(InputControl, InputEventPtr)

Given a StateEvent or DeltaStateEvent, return the raw memory pointer that can be used, for example, with ReadValueFromState(Void*) to read out the value of control contained in the event.

Declaration

public static void *GetStatePtrFromStateEvent(this InputControl control, InputEventPtr eventPtr)

Parameters

Type	Name	Description
InputControl	control	Control to access state for in the given state event.
InputEventPtr	eventPtr	A StateEvent or DeltaStateEvent containing input state.

Returns

Type	Description
Void*	A pointer that can be used with methods such as ReadValueFromState(Void*) or `null` if `eventPtr` does not contain state for the given `control`.

Remarks

Note that the given state event must have the same state format (see format) as the device to which control belongs. If this is not the case, the method will invariably return null.

In practice, this means that the method cannot be used with touch events or, in general, with events sent to devices that implement IInputStateCallbackReceiver (which Touchscreen does) except if the event is in the same state format as the device. Touch events will generally be sent as state events containing only the state of a single TouchControl, not the state of the entire Touchscreen.

Exceptions

Type	Condition
ArgumentNullException	`control` is `null` -or- `eventPtr` is invalid.
ArgumentException	`eventPtr` is not a StateEvent or DeltaStateEvent.

HasButtonPress(InputEventPtr, Single, Boolean)

Return true if the given eventPtr has any Input

Declaration

public static bool HasButtonPress(this InputEventPtr eventPtr, float magnitude = -1F, bool buttonControlsOnly = true)

Parameters

Type	Name	Description
InputEventPtr	eventPtr	An event. Must be a StateEvent or DeltaStateEvent.
Single	magnitude	The threshold value that a button must be actuated by to be considered pressed.
Boolean	buttonControlsOnly	Whether the method should only consider button controls.

Returns

Type	Description
Boolean

Exceptions

Type	Condition
ArgumentNullException	`eventPtr` is a `null` pointer.
ArgumentException	`eventPtr` is not a StateEvent or DeltaStateEvent -or- the InputDevice referenced by the deviceId in the event cannot be found.

HasValueChangeInEvent(InputControl, InputEventPtr)

Return true if control has a different value (from its current one) in eventPtr.

Declaration

public static bool HasValueChangeInEvent(this InputControl control, InputEventPtr eventPtr)

Parameters

Type	Name	Description
InputControl	control	An input control.
InputEventPtr	eventPtr	An input event. Must be a StateEvent or DeltaStateEvent.

Returns

Type	Description
Boolean	True if `eventPtr` contains a value for `control` that is different from the control's current value (see ReadValue()).

Exceptions

Type	Condition
ArgumentNullException	`control` is `null` -or- `eventPtr` is a `null` pointer (see valid).
ArgumentException	`eventPtr` is not a StateEvent or DeltaStateEvent.

HasValueChangeInState(InputControl, Void*)

Return true if the current value of control is different to the one found in statePtr.

Declaration

public static bool HasValueChangeInState(this InputControl control, void *statePtr)

Parameters

Type	Name	Description
InputControl	control	Control whose state to compare to what is stored in `statePtr`.
Void*	statePtr	A block of input state memory containing the stateBlock of `control..`

Returns

Type	Description
Boolean	True if the value of `control` stored in `statePtr` is different compared to what ReadValue() of the control returns.

Exceptions

Type	Condition
ArgumentNullException	`control` is `null` or `statePtr` is `null`.

IsActuated(InputControl, Single)

Return true if the given control is actuated.

Declaration

public static bool IsActuated(this InputControl control, float threshold = 0F)

Parameters

Type	Name	Description
InputControl	control
Single	threshold	Magnitude threshold that the control must match or exceed to be considered actuated. An exception to this is the default value of zero. If threshold is zero, the control must have a magnitude greater than zero.

Returns

Type	Description
Boolean

Remarks

Actuation is defined as a control having a magnitude (EvaluateMagnitude() greater than zero or, if the control does not support magnitudes, has been moved from its default state.

In practice, this means that when actuated, a control will produce a value other than its default value.

IsPressed(InputControl, Single)

Check whether the given control is considered pressed according to the button press threshold.

Declaration

public static bool IsPressed(this InputControl control, float buttonPressPoint = 0F)

Parameters

Type	Name	Description
InputControl	control	Control to check.
Single	buttonPressPoint	Optional custom button press point. If not supplied, defaultButtonPressPoint is used.

Returns

Type	Description
Boolean	True if the actuation of the given control is high enough for it to be considered pressed.

Remarks

This method checks the actuation level of the control as IsActuated(InputControl, Single) does. For ButtonControls and other float value controls, this will effectively check whether the float value of the control exceeds the button point threshold. Note that if the control is an axis that can be both positive and negative, the press threshold works in both directions, i.e. it can be crossed both in the positive direction and in the negative direction.

Exceptions

Type	Condition
ArgumentNullException	`control` is `null`.

QueueValueChange<TValue>(InputControl<TValue>, TValue, Double)

Queue a value change on the given control which will be processed and take effect in the next input update.

Declaration

public static void QueueValueChange<TValue>(this InputControl<TValue> control, TValue value, double time = -1)
    where TValue : struct

Parameters

Type	Name	Description
InputControl<TValue>	control	Control to change the value of.
TValue	value	New value for the control.
Double	time	Optional time at which the value change should take effect. If set, this will become the time of the queued event. If the time is in the future and the update mode is set to ProcessEventsInFixedUpdate, the event will not be processed until it falls within the time of an input update slice. Otherwise, the event will invariably be consumed in the next input update (see Update()).

Type Parameters

Name	Description
TValue	Type of value.

Exceptions

Type	Condition
ArgumentNullException	`control` is null.

ReadDefaultValueAsObject(InputControl)

Read the control's default value and return it as an object.

Declaration

public static object ReadDefaultValueAsObject(this InputControl control)

Parameters

Type	Name	Description
InputControl	control	Control to read default value from.

Returns

Type	Description
Object

Remarks

This method allocates GC memory and should thus not be used during normal gameplay.

Exceptions

Type	Condition
ArgumentNullException	`control` is null.

Declaration

public static object ReadValueAsObject(this InputControl control)

Parameters

Returns

Type	Description
Object

Remarks

This method allocates GC memory and thus may cause garbage collection when used during gameplay.

Use ReadValueIntoBuffer(InputControl, Void*, Int32) to read values generically without having to know the specific value type of a control.

ReadValueFromEvent<TValue>(InputControl<TValue>, InputEventPtr)

Read the value for the given control from the given event.

Declaration

public static TValue ReadValueFromEvent<TValue>(this InputControl<TValue> control, InputEventPtr inputEvent)
    where TValue : struct

Parameters

Type	Name	Description
InputControl<TValue>	control	Control to read value for.
InputEventPtr	inputEvent	Event to read value from. Must be a StateEvent or DeltaStateEvent.

Returns

Type	Description
TValue	The value for the given control as read out from the given event or `default(TValue)` if the given event does not contain a value for the control (e.g. if it is a DeltaStateEvent not containing the relevant portion of the device's state memory).

Type Parameters

Name	Description
TValue	Type of value to read.

Exceptions

Type	Condition
ArgumentNullException	`control` is `null`.
ArgumentException	`inputEvent` is not a StateEvent or DeltaStateEvent.

ReadValueFromEvent<TValue>(InputControl<TValue>, InputEventPtr, out TValue)

Check if the given event contains a value for the given control and if so, read the value.

Declaration

public static bool ReadValueFromEvent<TValue>(this InputControl<TValue> control, InputEventPtr inputEvent, out TValue value)
    where TValue : struct

Parameters

Type	Name	Description
InputControl<TValue>	control	Control to read value for.
InputEventPtr	inputEvent	Input event. This must be a StateEvent or DeltaStateEvent. Note that in the case of a DeltaStateEvent, the control may not actually be part of the event. In this case, the method returns false and stores `default(TValue)` in `value`.
TValue	value	Variable that receives the control value.

Returns

Type	Description
Boolean	True if the value has been successfully read from the event, false otherwise.

Type Parameters

Name	Description
TValue	Type of value to read.

Exceptions

Type	Condition
ArgumentNullException	`control` is `null`.

Declaration

public static object ReadValueFromEventAsObject(this InputControl control, InputEventPtr inputEvent)

Parameters

Type	Name	Description
InputControl	control	Control to read the value for.
InputEventPtr	inputEvent	An StateEvent or DeltaStateEvent to read the value from.

Returns

Type	Description
Object	The current value for the control or `null` if the control's value is not included in the event.

ReadValueIntoBuffer(InputControl, Void*, Int32)

Read the current, processed value of the control and store it into the given memory buffer.

Declaration

public static void ReadValueIntoBuffer(this InputControl control, void *buffer, int bufferSize)

Parameters

Type	Name	Description
InputControl	control
Void*	buffer	Buffer to store value in. Note that the value is not stored with the offset found in byteOffset of the control's stateBlock. It will be stored directly at the given address.
Int32	bufferSize	Size of the memory available at `buffer` in bytes. Has to be at least valueSizeInBytes. If the size is smaller, nothing will be written to the buffer.

ResetToDefaultStateInEvent(InputControl, InputEventPtr)

Writes the default state of control into eventPtr.

Declaration

public static bool ResetToDefaultStateInEvent(this InputControl control, InputEventPtr eventPtr)

Parameters

Type	Name	Description
InputControl	control	A control whose default state to write.
InputEventPtr	eventPtr	A valid pointer to either a StateEvent or DeltaStateEvent.

Returns

Type	Description
Boolean	True if the default state for `control` was written to `eventPtr`, false if the given state or delta state event did not include memory for the given control.

Remarks

Note that the default state of a control does not necessarily need to correspond to zero-initialized memory. For example, if an axis control yields a range of [-1..1] and is stored as a signed 8-bit value, the default state will be 127, not 0.

// Reset the left gamepad stick to its default state (which results in a
// value of (0,0).
using (StateEvent.From(Gamepad.all[0], out var eventPtr))
{
    Gamepad.all[0].leftStick.ResetToDefaultStateInEvent(eventPtr);
    InputSystem.QueueEvent(eventPtr);
}

Exceptions

Type	Condition
ArgumentNullException	`control` is `null` -or- `eventPtr` contains a null pointer.
ArgumentException	`eventPtr` is not a StateEvent or DeltaStateEvent.
