Describes a device object instance. This structure is used with the Inputdevice9Enumobjects method to provide the Dienumdeviceobjectscallback callback function with information about a particular object associated with a device, such as an axis or button. It is also used with the Inputdevice9Getobjectinfo method to retrieve information about a device object.

In JScript, you can use structures, but you cannot define your own.
Members Table
The following table lists the members exposed by the object. Click a tab on the left to choose the type of member you want to view.
An index that refers to a designator in the HID physical descriptor. This number can be passed to functions in the HID parsing library (Hidpi.h) to obtain additional information about the device object.
The exponent to associate with the dimension, if known. Dimensional units are always integral, so an exponent might be needed to convert them to nonintegral types.
The force resolution of the actuator associated with this object. The returned value represents the number of gradations, or subdivisions, of the maximum force that can be expressed by the force-feedback system from 0 (no force) to maximum force.
The magnitude of the maximum force that can be created by the actuator associated with this object. Force is expressed in newtons and measured in relation to where the hand would be during normal operation of the device.
An index that refers to a designator in the HID physical descriptor. This number can be passed to functions in the HID parsing library (Hidpi.h) to obtain additional information about the device object.
Offset in the native data format of the device. The native data format corresponds to the raw device data. The DwOfs member does not correspond to the device constant, such as DIJOFS_BUTTON0, for this object.
The HID usage associated with the object, if known. HIDs always report a usage. Non-HIDs can optionally report a usage; if they do not, the value of this member is 0.
The Human Interface Device (HID) usage page associated with the object, if known. HIDs always report a usage page. Non-HID devices can optionally report a usage page; if they do not, the value of this member is 0.
