SimpleOrientationSensor.GetDefault Method

Definition

Gets the default simple orientation sensor.

public:
 static SimpleOrientationSensor ^ GetDefault();
 static SimpleOrientationSensor GetDefault();
public static SimpleOrientationSensor GetDefault();
function getDefault()
Public Shared Function GetDefault () As SimpleOrientationSensor

Returns

The default simple orientation sensor or null if no simple orientation sensors are found.

Examples

The following example demonstrates how a UWP app built with XAML and C# used this method to establish a connection to the simple orientation sensor.

_sensor = SimpleOrientationSensor.GetDefault();

Remarks

This method only returns values for hardware that has been integrated into the computer by the manufacturer. (The simple orientation-sensor readings are derived from an accelerometer.) A null value will be returned if the specified sensor is not available in the system.

When a system is in Connected Standby, a call to the GetDefault method will return immediately with a null result.
