Where to find HIDSDI.H

[Peter Lameijn]

Hello,

I want to translate the HID headerfile to PB from HIDSDI.H, which is included in the Windows DDK. But I don't want to install/uninstall the complete DDK just to extract one file. Does anybody know where I can find this header file?

[Edit]
Found it! A lot of headerfiles can be found here:

I ran into another question while translating:
Does following code translate into constants, or are they run-time values?

#define HIDP_ERROR_CODES(SEV, CODE) \
        ((NTSTATUS) (((SEV) << 28) | (FACILITY_HID_ERROR_CODE << 16) | (CODE)))

#define HIDP_STATUS_SUCCESS                  (HIDP_ERROR_CODES(0x0,0))
#define HIDP_STATUS_NULL                     (HIDP_ERROR_CODES(0x8,1))
#define HIDP_STATUS_INVALID_PREPARSED_DATA   (HIDP_ERROR_CODES(0xC,1))
#define HIDP_STATUS_INVALID_REPORT_TYPE      (HIDP_ERROR_CODES(0xC,2))
#define HIDP_STATUS_INVALID_REPORT_LENGTH    (HIDP_ERROR_CODES(0xC,3))
#define HIDP_STATUS_USAGE_NOT_FOUND          (HIDP_ERROR_CODES(0xC,4))
#define HIDP_STATUS_VALUE_OUT_OF_RANGE       (HIDP_ERROR_CODES(0xC,5))
#define HIDP_STATUS_BAD_LOG_PHY_VALUES       (HIDP_ERROR_CODES(0xC,6))
#define HIDP_STATUS_BUFFER_TOO_SMALL         (HIDP_ERROR_CODES(0xC,7))
#define HIDP_STATUS_INTERNAL_ERROR           (HIDP_ERROR_CODES(0xC,8))
#define HIDP_STATUS_I8042_TRANS_UNKNOWN      (HIDP_ERROR_CODES(0xC,9))
#define HIDP_STATUS_INCOMPATIBLE_REPORT_ID   (HIDP_ERROR_CODES(0xC,0xA))
#define HIDP_STATUS_NOT_VALUE_ARRAY          (HIDP_ERROR_CODES(0xC,0xB))
#define HIDP_STATUS_IS_VALUE_ARRAY           (HIDP_ERROR_CODES(0xC,0xC))
#define HIDP_STATUS_DATA_INDEX_NOT_FOUND     (HIDP_ERROR_CODES(0xC,0xD))
#define HIDP_STATUS_DATA_INDEX_OUT_OF_RANGE  (HIDP_ERROR_CODES(0xC,0xE))
#define HIDP_STATUS_BUTTON_NOT_PRESSED       (HIDP_ERROR_CODES(0xC,0xF))
#define HIDP_STATUS_REPORT_DOES_NOT_EXIST    (HIDP_ERROR_CODES(0xC,0x10))
#define HIDP_STATUS_NOT_IMPLEMENTED          (HIDP_ERROR_CODES(0xC,0x20))

define HIDP_ERROR_CODES(SEV, CODE) \
        ((NTSTATUS) (((SEV) << 28) | (FACILITY_HID_ERROR_CODE << 16) | (CODE)))

#define HIDP_STATUS_SUCCESS                  (HIDP_ERROR_CODES(0x0,0))

Those values are constants. Using 'C' it's compile time. But AFAIK you can't do it this in a simple %EQUATE_NAME = something.

I think you could create some MACROS to do this 'as is' at compile time, or a function to do it at runtime, but I'd probably write a little program to calculate everything and create my own #INCLUDE file. (Do once, use many).

Something like..

SUB FOO ()
   OPEN "myinclude.INC" FOR OUTPUT AS #1 

   PRINT #1, "' MYINCLUDE.INC  " & DATE$ & " " & TIME$
   PRINT #1, 

   FOR Z = 1 TO DATACOUNT STEP 3 
     EName$ = READ$(Z)
     Sev$   = READ$(Z+1)
     Code$  = READ$(Z+2)

     sevval = VAL("&H" & Sev$)
     codeval= vAL (&h" & Code$)

     Equate$ =  MakeHidpValueString (sevVal, codeval)

     PRINT #1, "%" & EName$ & "  =  " & Equate$
   NEXT
   PRINT #1, 
   PRINT #1, "' ** END OF INCLUDE FILE **"
   CLOSE 1 

DATA HIDP_STATUS_SUCCESS  , 0,0
DATA HIDP_STATUS_NULL, 8,1
...
DATA HIDP_STATUS_REPORT_DOES_NOT_EXIST , C, 10
...
END SUB

FUNCTION MakeHidpValueString (sevval AS LONG, codeval AS LONG) AS STRING
  LOCAL Shiftsev AS LONG, Facility AS LONG, SHiftFacility AS LONG, R AS LONG 

  ShiftSev      = SevVal
  SHIFT LEFT      Shiftsev, 28 
  ShiftFacility = %FACILITY_HID_ERROR_CODE   ' this must be defined somewhere
  SHIFT LEFT      ShiftFacility, 16

  R = Shiftsev OR ShiftFacility OR Codeval

  FUNCTION =  "&h" & HEX$(R,4) & "&"
END FUNCTION

Something like that, anyway.

(I am not a 'C' programmer).

Thanks Michael,

I'll try it. C still puzzles me from time to time. Another puzzle:

typedef enum _HIDP_REPORT_TYPE {
  HidP_Input,
  HidP_Output,
  HidP_Feature
} HIDP_REPORT_TYPE;

NTSTATUS HidP_SetData(
  HIDP_REPORT_TYPE ReportType,
  PHIDP_DATA DataList,
  OUT PULONG DataLength,
  PHIDP_PREPARSED_DATA PreparsedData,
  PCHAR Report,
  ULONG ReportLength
);

The first parameter of HidP_SetData is ReportType, a variable of the type HIDP_REPORT_TYPE. But that is an ENUM type. What gets passed?
A HIDP_REPORT_TYPE struct preloaded with 0, 1, and 2, or something else?

ReportType will contain one of possible value of HidP_Input, HidP_Output or HidP_Feature

A HIDP_REPORT_TYPE struct preloaded with 0, 1, and 2, or something else?

Yes. Thats how ENUM work. If you have a lot of constants for assign, then C can assign value to them automaticaly increasing by 1 each next constant. C allow asign start value too, but it isn't shown in that structure, so members of HIDP_REPORT_TYPE is equal to

  HidP_Input   = 0
  HidP_Output  = 1
  HidP_Feature = 2

Thanks,

So it's mainly a normal variable with limited range of only 0...2. The strange thing is that you cannot see the type of variable. (Is it a byte, or word,...)
I looked at some VB code, and there an Integer is used...

It can be a LONG or a DWORD.
