);

Parameters

  • ReportType
    [in] HIDP_REPORT_TYPE enumerator value that indicates the type of HID report located in the Report parameter.
  • DataList
    [out] Caller-allocated array of HIDP_DATA structures that the function uses to return information about all buttons that are currently set to On and the data associated with values.
  • DataLength
    [in, out] On input, the number of structures that the caller-allocated DataList array holds. On output, the number of controls for which the function can return data, which includes all buttons that are currently set to On and all control values.
  • PreparsedData
    [in] Pointer to the preparsed data of the top-level collection associated with the HID report located in the Report parameter.
  • Report
    [in] Pointer to a HID report.
  • ReportLength
    [in] Size, in bytes, of the HID report located at Report, which must be equal to the report length for the specified report type returned by the HidP_GetCaps function in the collection's HIDP_CAPS structure.
