# IGameInputDispatcher (Interface contents)

> IGameInputDispatcher

Allows you to take manual control of scheduling the background work run by the GameInput API.

## Syntax

```cpp theme={null}
class IGameInputDispatcher : public IUnknown
```

## Methods

| Method | Description |
| - | - |
| [Dispatch](https://docs.xbox.com/reference/input/gameinput/interfaces/IGameInputDispatcher/methods/igameinputdispatcher_dispatch.md) | Processes tasks in the dispatcher's queue. |
| [OpenWaitHandle](https://docs.xbox.com/reference/input/gameinput/interfaces/IGameInputDispatcher/methods/igameinputdispatcher_openwaithandle.md) | Provides a wait handle that indicates when tasks are available in the dispatcher queue. |

## Remarks

Making a reference to the `IGameInputDispatcher` switches GameInput to "manual dispatch" mode, and releasing all references to the `IGameInputDispatcher` object returns it to "automatic dispatch" mode.

## Requirements

**Header:** GameInput.h

**Supported platforms:** Windows, XBOX One family consoles and XBOX Series consoles
