Members
UsagePage
Specifies the usage page of the usage or usage range.
ReportID
Specifies the report ID of the HID report that contains the usage or usage range.
IsAlias
Indicates, if TRUE, that the usage is member of a set of aliased usages. Otherwise, if IsAlias is FALSE, the value has only one usage.
BitField
Contains the data fields (one or two bytes) associated with an input, output, or feature main item.
LinkCollection
Specifies the index of the link collection in a top-level collection's link collection array that contains the usage or usage range. If LinkCollection is zero, the usage or usage range is contained in the top-level collection.
LinkUsage
Specifies the usage of the link collection that contains the usage or usage range. If LinkCollection is zero, LinkUsage specifies the usage of the top-level collection.
LinkUsagePage
Specifies the usage page of the link collection that contains the usage or usage range. If LinkCollection is zero, LinkUsagePage specifies the usage page of the top-level collection.
IsRange
Specifies, if TRUE, that the structure describes a usage range. Otherwise, if IsRange is FALSE, the structure describes a single usage.
IsStringRange
Specifies, if TRUE, that the usage or usage range has a set of string descriptors. Otherwise, if IsStringRange is FALSE, the usage or usage range has zero or one string descriptor.
IsDesignatorRange
Specifies, if TRUE, that the usage or usage range has a set of designators. Otherwise, if IsDesignatorRange is FALSE, the usage or usage range has zero or one designator.
IsAbsolute
Specifies, if TRUE, that the usage or usage range provides absolute data. Otherwise, if IsAbsolute is FALSE, the value is the change in state from the previous value.
HasNull
Specifies, if TRUE, that the usage supports a NULL value, which indicates that the data is not valid and should be ignored. Otherwise, if HasNull is FALSE, the usage does not have a NULL value.
Reserved
Reserved for internal system use.
BitSize
Specifies the size, in bits, of a usage's data field in a report. If ReportCount is greater than one, each usage has a separate data field of this size.
ReportCount
Specifies the number of usages that this structure describes.
Reserved2[5]
Reserved for internal system use.
UnitsExp
Specifies the usage's exponent, as described by the USB HID standard.
Units
Specifies the usage's units, as described by the USB HID Standard.
LogicalMin
Specifies a usage's signed lower bound.
LogicalMax
Specifies a usage's signed upper bound.
PhysicalMin
Specifies a usage's signed lower bound after scaling is applied to the logical minimum value.
PhysicalMax
Specifies a usage's signed upper bound after scaling is applied to the logical maximum value.
Range
Specifies, if IsRange is TRUE, information about a usage range. Otherwise, if IsRange is FALSE, NotRange contains information about a single usage.
Range.UsageMin
Indicates the inclusive lower bound of usage range whose inclusive upper bound is specified by Range.UsageMax.
Range.UsageMax
Indicates the inclusive upper bound of a usage range whose inclusive lower bound is indicated by Range.UsageMin.
Range.StringMin
Indicates the inclusive lower bound of a range of string descriptors (specified by string minimum and string maximum items) whose inclusive upper bound is indicated by Range.StringMax.
Range.StringMax
Indicates the inclusive upper bound of a range of string descriptors (specified by string minimum and string maximum items) whose inclusive lower bound is indicated by Range.StringMin.
Range.DesignatorMin
Indicates the inclusive lower bound of a range of designators (specified by designator minimum and designator maximum items) whose inclusive lower bound is indicated by Range.DesignatorMax.
Range.DesignatorMax
Indicates the inclusive upper bound of a range of designators (specified by designator minimum and designator maximum items) whose inclusive lower bound is indicated by Range.DesignatorMin.
Range.DataIndexMin
Indicates the inclusive lower bound of a sequential range of data indices that correspond, one-to-one and in the same order, to the usages specified by the usage range Range.UsageMin to Range.UsageMax.
Range.DataIndexMax
Indicates the inclusive upper bound of a sequential range of data indices that correspond, one-to-one and in the same order, to the usages specified by the usage range Range.UsageMin to Range.UsageMax.
NotRange
Specifies, if IsRange is FALSE, information about a single usage. Otherwise, if IsRange is TRUE, Range contains information about a usage range.
NotRange.Usage
Indicates a usage ID.
NotRange.Reserved1
Reserved for internal system use.
NotRange.StringIndex
Indicates a string descriptor ID for the usage specified by NotRange.Usage.
NotRange.Reserved2
Reserved for internal system use.
NotRange.DesignatorIndex
Indicates a designator ID for the usage specified by NotRange.Usage.
NotRange.Reserved3
Reserved for internal system use.
NotRange.DataIndex
Indicates the data index of the usage specified by NotRange.Usage.
NotRange.Reserved4
Reserved for internal system use.
Remarks
Clients obtain a value capability array by calling HidP_GetValueCaps or HidP_GetSpecificValueCaps. These routines return an array of HIDP_VALUE_CAPS structures in a caller-allocated buffer. The required buffer length is specified in the HIDP_CAPS structure returned by HidP_GetCaps.
For information about the capabilities of HID control values, see Collection Capability and Value Capability Arrays.
