You can use the GetTrigger() function. Something like this:

Joystick *stick;
stick = new Joystick(1);

if (stick->GetTrigger())
{
    // Code if trigger is held
}
else
{
    // Code if trigger is released
}

Buttons are similar, but you use the GetRawButton() command.

Joystick *stick;
stick = new Joystick(1);

if (stick->GetRawButton(1-11))
{
    // Code if button is held
}
else if (!stick->GetRawButton(1-11))
{
    // Code if button is released
}
