CONST_DIPHFLAGS

Members of the CONST_DIPHFLAGS enumeration are used to specify how a device object is identified. They are used in the DirectInputDevice8.GetObjectInfo method as well as in the DIPROPLONG and DIPROPRANGE types.

Enum CONST_DIPHFLAGS
    DIPH_BYID     = 2
    DIPH_BYOFFSET = 1
    DIPH_BYUSAGE  = 3
    DIPH_DEVICE   = 0
End Enum

Constants

DIPH_BYID
