Bug 2319

Summary: Incorrect documentation for SDL_GameControllerGetAxis
Product: SDL Reporter: Turo Lamminen <turotl>
Component: joystickAssignee: Ryan C. Gordon <icculus>
Status: RESOLVED FIXED QA Contact: Sam Lantinga <slouken>
Severity: minor    
Priority: P2 CC: icculus
Version: 2.0.1   
Hardware: All   
OS: All   

Description Turo Lamminen 2013-12-19 13:29:56 UTC 
Documentation for SDL_GameControllerGetAxis is inaccurate.

Both wiki and header file state that "The state is a value ranging from -32768 to 32767." This is only the case for stick axes. Triggers range from 0 to 32767.
Comment 1 Ryan C. Gordon 2015-02-18 21:28:40 UTC 
Fixed in https://hg.libsdl.org/SDL/rev/3d0af39849fa and corrected the wiki.
