XUserChangeEvent

Specifies the type of user change event.

Syntax

enum class XUserChangeEvent  : uint32_t  
{  
    SignedInAgain = 0,  
    SigningOut = 1,  
    SignedOut = 2,  
    Gamertag = 3,  
    GamerPicture = 4,  
    Privileges = 5,  
}  

Constants

Constant Description
SignedInAgain User is signed in again. This will only happen if the game holds onto the XUserHandle after the user has signed out and that same user then signs in once more.
SigningOut User is signing out.
SignedOut User is signed out.
Gamertag User's gametag has changed.
GamerPicture User's gamer picture has changed.
Privileges User's privileges have changed.

Remarks

To monitor changes in user state or user information, subscribe to XUserChangeEvent. Call the XUserRegisterForChangeEvent function to subscribe to XUserChangeEvent. The XUserRegisterForChangeEvent function accepts a pointer to an XUserChangeEventCallback callback argument. The function returns the pointer to the callback. The XUserChangeEventCallback callback takes an XUserChangeEvent enumeration as an argument.

The following example demonstrates how to handle user change events.

HRESULT RegisterForChanges()
{
    RETURN_HR_IF(E_UNEXPECTED, _token.token != 0);
    RETURN_IF_FAILED(XUserRegisterForChangeEvent(
        _queue,
        this,
        UserChangeEventHandler,
        &_token));
    return S_OK;
}

void UnregisterForChanges()
{
    XUserUnregisterForChangeEvent(_token, false);
    _token.token = 0;
}

void UserChangeEventHandler(
    XUserLocalId userLocalId,
    XUserChangeEvent event)
{
    auto iter = std::find_if(
        _users.begin(),
        _users.end(),
        [&userLocalId](const User& candidate)
    {
        XUserLocalId candidateUserLocalId;
        XUserGetLocalId(candidate.Handle(), &candidateUserLocalId);
        return candidateUserLocalId == userLocalId;
    });

    // User not known
    if (iter == _users.end())
    {
        return;
    }

    auto handle = iter->Handle();

    // If a guest gets signed out, immediately close the handle
    bool isGuest;
    if (SUCCEEDED_LOG(XUserGetIsGuest(handle, &isGuest)) &&
        isGuest &&
        event == XUserChangeEvent::SignedOut)
    {
        _users.erase(iter);
    }

    if (event == XUserChangeEvent::SigningOut)
    {
        // Delay the user signing out just for fun
        XUserSignOutDeferralHandle deferral;
        if (SUCCEEDED_LOG(XUserGetSignOutDeferral(&deferral)))
        {
            // Hold the deferral for 5 seconds then close it
            std::thread completeDeferralThread(
                [deferral]()
            {
                std::this_thread::sleep_for(std::chrono::milliseconds(5000));
                XUserCloseSignOutDeferralHandle(deferral);
            });

            completeDeferralThread.detach();
        }
    }

    if (event == XUserChangeEvent::GamerPicture)
    {
        iter->LoadGamerPicAsync(_queue);
    }
}
