How to: Enumerate Controllers

This topic discusses how to enumerate all controllers connected to the console.

To enumerate controllers connected to the console:

1. Use Controller.Controllers to retrieve a list of all controllers connected to the console.
   

   C++

   //  Iterate over all Controller instances connected to the console
   auto controllers = Windows::Xbox::Input::Controller::Controllers;  
   

2. Then iterate for all the connected controllers.
   

   C++

   for ( UINT i = 0; i < controllers->Size; ++i )
   {
       auto pController = controllers->GetAt( i );
         
       // Do something with the current controller object
   }
