xboxlive_gamedisplayname_for_user

With this function you can retrieve the display name - as a string - from the user ID pointer given. Note that if the user is local then the returned value is simply a string of the their display name, but if it is a remote user then the string will be their gamertag which can then be used, for example, for muting/unmuting in voice chat.

 

Syntax:

xboxlive_gamedisplayname_for_user(user_id);

Argument Description
user_id The ID pointer of the user to check.

 

Returns:

String

 

Example:

for(var i = 0; i < xboxlive_get_user_count(); ++i;)
    {
    user_id[i] = xboxlive_get_user(i);
    user_name[i] = xboxlive_gamedisplayname_for_user(user_id[i]);
    }

The above code gets the user ID pointer for each available user account and then stores the pointer along with the display name in two arrays.
