Syntax

char *SDL_GameControllerNameForIndex(int joystick_index)

Function Parameters

Return Value

Returns the implementation dependent name for the game controller, or NULL if there is no name or the index is invalid.

Code Examples

for (int i = 0; i < SDL_NumJoysticks(); ++i) {
    char *name = SDL_GameControllerNameForIndex(i);
    if (name) {
        printf("Joystick %i has game controller name '%s'\n", name);
