Examples

The following example starts tracking a raw game controller that's been added.

#include <winrt/Windows.Gaming.Input.h>
using namespace winrt;
using namespace Windows::Gaming::Input;
...
std::vector<RawGameController> m_myRawGameControllers;
...
RawGameController::RawGameControllerAdded([this](IInspectable const& /* sender */, RawGameController const& args)
    {
        m_myRawGameControllers.push_back(args);
    });

// `myRawGameControllers` is a `Vector<RawGameController^>` that contains the raw game controllers that your game is tracking.
RawGameController::RawGameControllerAdded += ref new EventHandler<RawGameController^>(
		[] (Platform::Object^, RawGameController^ args)
{
    // This code assumes that you're interested in all new raw game controllers.
    myRawGameControllers->Append(args);
});

Remarks

To identify controllers that have already been added, you query the list of connected controllers using RawGameController.RawGameControllers. However, because you might only be interested in some of the connected raw game controllers, we recommend that you maintain your own collection instead of accessing them through RawGameControllers.
