CONST_DIDFTFLAGS

Used in the flags parameter of the DirectInputDevice8.GetDeviceObjectsEnum method to specify the type of device object to enumerate. These values are also returned by the DirectInputDeviceObjectInstance.GetFlags method to describe capabilities of the device object.

Constants

DIDFT_ABSAXIS

Absolute axis.

DIDFT_ALIAS

Controls identified by a Human Interface Device (HID) usage alias. This flag applies only to HID-compliant USB devices.

DIDFT_ALL

All objects.

DIDFT_ANYINSTANCE

Use the first instance enumerated that meets other criteria such as DIDFT_AXIS or DIDFT_BUTTON.

DIDFT_AXIS

Axis, either absolute or relative.

DIDFT_BUTTON

Push button or a toggle button.

DIDFT_COLLECTION

Human Interface Device (HID) link collection. HID link collections do not generate data of their own.

DIDFT_FFACTUATOR

Object that contains a force-feedback actuator. In other words, forces can be applied to this object.

DIDFT_FFEFFECTTRIGGER

Object that can be used to trigger force-feedback effects.

DIDFT_INSTANCEMASK

Same as DIDFT_ANYINSTANCE.

DIDFT_NOCOLLECTION

Object that does not belong to any HID link collection; in other words, an object for which DirectInputDeviceObjectInstance.GetCollectionNumber returns 0.

DIDFT_NODATA

Object that does not generate data.

DIDFT_OUTPUT

Object to which data can be sent by using the DirectInputDevice8.SendDeviceData method.

DIDFT_POV

Point-of-view controller.

DIDFT_PSHBUTTON

Push button. A push button is reported as down when the user presses it and as up when the user releases it.

DIDFT_RELAXIS

Relative axis.

DIDFT_TGLBUTTON

Toggle button. A toggle button is reported as down when the user presses it and remains so until the user presses the button a second time.

DIDFT_VENDORDEFINED

An object of a type defined by the manufacturer.
