getJoystick method

Pointer<SdlJoystick> getJoystick()

Get the underlying joystick from a gamepad.

This function will give you a SDL_Joystick object, which allows you to use the SDL_Joystick functions with a SDL_Gamepad object. This would be useful for getting a joystick's position at any given time, even if it hasn't moved (moving it would produce an event, which would have the axis' value).

The pointer returned is owned by the SDL_Gamepad. You should not call SDL_CloseJoystick() on it, for example, since doing so will likely cause SDL to crash.

\param gamepad the gamepad object that you want to get a joystick from. \returns an SDL_Joystick object, or NULL on failure; call SDL_GetError() for more information.

\since This function is available since SDL 3.1.3.
