This structure is used with the Inputdevice9Getdevicedata and the Inputdevice9Senddevicedata methods. BufferedDataCollection Collection of buffered data. ConfigureDevicesParameters Device Applications use the methods of the Device object to gain and release access to Microsoft® DirectInput® devices, manage device properties and information, set behavior, perform initialization, create and play force-feedback effects, and invoke a device's control panel.

MoreDataException Not all the requested information fit into the buffer. NotAcquiredException The operation cannot be performed unless the device is acquired. NotBufferedException The device is not buffered. Set the BufferSize property to enable buffering. NotDownloadedException The effect is not downloaded. NotExclusivelyAcquiredException The operation cannot be performed unless the device is acquired in Exclusive mode. NotFoundException The requested object does not exist. ObjectTypeGuid Object type guid. OtherApplicationHasPriorityException Another application has a higher priority level, preventing this call from succeeding. PendingException Data is not yet available. ReportFullException More information was requested to be sent than can be sent to the device. SystemGuid Contains system guids for common device types. UnpluggedException The operation could not be completed because the device is not plugged in. UnsupportedException The function called is not supported at this time.
ActionAttributeFlags Flags used to request specific attributes or processing. ActionMapControl Flags to control the mapping. ActionMechanism Mapping mechanism used by DirectInput to configure the action. Any The following constants are used in the dwSemantic member of the Diaction structure to map an action to any matching control on the device. ApplyActionMap Value that specifies how the action map is applied. ArcadePlatform The genre contains controls for an arcade-style game. ArcadeSideToSide The genre contains controls for an arcade-style game. AxesDataFormat Describes a device's data format. This structure is used with the Inputdevice9Setdataformat method. BrowserControl The genre contains controls for browser control. Button A button. Cad2DControl The genre contains controls for a 2D CAD control Cad3DControl The genre contains controls for a 3-D CAD control CadFlyBy The genre contains controls for a CAD Fly By. CadModel The genre contains controls for a CAD model. ConfigureDevicesFlags Flags for configuring devices. CooperativeLevelFlags The cooperative level determines how this instance of the device interacts with other instances of the device and the rest of the system. DataFormatFlags Data format flags. DeviceClass Used when enumerating a class of devices. DeviceData Contains buffered device information. This structure is used with the Inputdevice9Getdevicedata and the Inputdevice9Senddevicedata methods. DeviceDataFormat Describes a device's data format. This structure is used with the Inputdevice9Setdataformat method.

MaxPoints Mouse The following constants are used in the dwSemantic member of the Diaction structure to map an action to a physical axis or button on a mouse. MouseOffset Mouse device constants, defined in Dinput.h, represent offsets within a mouse device's data packet, the Dimousestate or Dimousestate2 structure. ObjectInstanceFlags ParameterHow PropertyType PropRangeFlags Retrieves the range of values an object can possibly report. For some devices, this is a read-only property.

CalibrationPoint Describes a calibration point. An array of Cpoint structures is contained by a Dipropcpoints structure. ColorSet Describes a set of colors used to draw the device configuration user object. It is part of the Diconfiguredevicesparams structure. Condition Contains type-specific information for effects that are marked as DIEFT_CONDITION.A reference to an array of Dicondition structures for an effect is passed in the lpvTypeSpecificParams member of the Dieffect structure. The number of elements in the array must be either one, or equal to the number of axes associated with the effect.
