HidP_GetUsageValueArray (Windows CE 5.0)

Send Feedback

This function extracts the data associated with a HID control usage value array from a HID report.

NTSTATUS HidP_GetUsageValueArray(  HIDP_REPORT_TYPE ReportType,  USAGE UsagePage,  USHORT LinkCollection,  USAGE Usage,  PCHAR UsageValue,  USHORT UsageValueByteLength,  PDIP_PREPARSED_DATA PreparsedData,  PCHAR Report,  ULONG ReportLength);

Parameters

  • ReportType
    [in] HIDP_REPORT_TYPE enumerator value that identifies the report type.
  • UsagePage
    [in] Usage page of the usage value array.
  • LinkCollection
    [in] Optional. Link collection that contains the usage value array. If LinkCollection is nonzero, the function only searches for a usage value array in this link collection; otherwise, if LinkCollection is zero, the function searches for a usage value array in the top-level collection associated with PreparsedData.
  • Usage
    [in] Usage of the usage value array.
  • UsageValue
    [out] Pointer to a caller-allocated buffer in which the function returns the data associated with the usage value array.
  • UsageValueByteLength
    [in] Length, in bytes, of the buffer at UsageValue.
  • PreparsedData
    [in] Pointer to a top-level collection's preparsed data.
  • Report
    [in] Pointer to a report that contains values.
  • ReportLength
    [in] Length, in bytes, of the report located at Report.

Return Values

The following table shows the possible return values.

Value Description
HIDP_STATUS_SUCCESS The function successfully returned the value's data.
HIDP_INVALID_REPORT_LENGTH Report length is not valid.
HIDP_INVALID_REPORT_TYPE Specified report type is not valid.
HIDP_STATUS_NOT_VALUE_ARRAY Requested usage is not a usage value array.
HIDP_STATUS_BUFFER_TOO_SMALL UsageValue buffer is too small to hold the requested usage.
HIDP_STATUS_INCOMPATIBLE_REPORT_ID Report contains a collection with buttons in the specified usage page, but there are no such usages in the report.
HIDP_STATUS_INVALID_PREPARSED_DATA Preparsed data was not valid.
HIDP_STATUS_USAGE_NOT_FOUND Report contains a requested usage that is not in any report supported by the top-level collection.

Remarks

The terms button and usage are used synonymously.

Multiplying the BitSize and ReportCount members of the usage value array's HIDP_VALUE_CAPS structure, and rounding the result up to the nearest byte, determines the required size of UsageValueByteLength.

Beginning with the least significant bit of the usage's data, HidP_GetUsageValueArray sets the UsageValue buffer in little-endian order. The data is not byte-aligned, and is shifted so that the least significant bit of data is the first bit of the UsageValue buffer.

Requirements

OS Versions: Windows CE .NET 4.2 and later.
Header: Hidpi.h.
Link Library: Hidparse_lib.lib.
