SDL_HapticPeriodic

A structure containing a template for a Periodic effect.

Header File

Defined in SDL_haptic.h

Syntax

typedef struct SDL_HapticPeriodic
{
    /* Header */
    Uint16 type;        /**< SDL_HAPTIC_SINE, SDL_HAPTIC_LEFTRIGHT,
                             SDL_HAPTIC_TRIANGLE, SDL_HAPTIC_SAWTOOTHUP or
                             SDL_HAPTIC_SAWTOOTHDOWN */
    SDL_HapticDirection direction;  /**< Direction of the effect. */

    /* Replay */
    Uint32 length;      /**< Duration of the effect. */
    Uint16 delay;       /**< Delay before starting the effect. */

    /* Trigger */
    Uint16 button;      /**< Button that triggers the effect. */
    Uint16 interval;    /**< How soon it can be triggered again after button. */

    /* Periodic */
    Uint16 period;      /**< Period of the wave. */
    Sint16 magnitude;   /**< Peak value; if negative, equivalent to 180 degrees extra phase shift. */
    Sint16 offset;      /**< Mean value of the wave. */
    Uint16 phase;       /**< Positive phase shift given by hundredth of a degree. */

    /* Envelope */
    Uint16 attack_length;   /**< Duration of the attack. */
    Uint16 attack_level;    /**< Level at the start of the attack. */
    Uint16 fade_length; /**< Duration of the fade. */
    Uint16 fade_level;  /**< Level at the end of the fade. */
} SDL_HapticPeriodic;

Remarks

The struct handles the following effects:

A periodic effect consists in a wave-shaped effect that repeats itself over time. The type determines the shape of the wave and the parameters determine the dimensions of the wave.

Phase is given by hundredth of a degree meaning that giving the phase a value of 9000 will displace it 25% of its period. Here are sample values:
