);

Parameters

[in] ReportType

[in] UsagePage

Specifies a usage page as a search criteria. If UsagePage is nonzero, only buttons that specify this usage page are returned.

[in] LinkCollection

[in] Usage

Specifies a HID usage as a search criteria. If Usage is nonzero, only buttons that specify this usage will be returned.

[out] ButtonCaps

Pointer to a caller-allocated buffer in which the routine returns a button capability array for the specified report type.

[in, out] ButtonCapsLength

Specifies the length on input, in array elements, of the buffer provided at ButtonCaps. On output, this parameter is set to the number of elements that the routine actually returned.

HidP_GetSpecificButtonCaps returns one of the following status values:

Return code Description
HIDP_STATUS_SUCCESS
The routine successfully returned the capability data.
HIDP_STATUS_INVALID_PREPARSED_DATA
The preparsed data is not valid.

Remarks

The required size of the ButtonCaps array is specified by the NumberXxxButtonCaps members of a top-level collection's HIDP_CAPS structure.

When calling HidP_GetSpecificButtonCaps, specifying zero for UsagePage, Usage, and LinkCollection is equivalent to calling HidP_GetButtonCaps.
