RE: [Plib-devel] Repost of HID Usage Tables

Gentlemen,

	Who's in charge of the "js" library?  I took a quick look at this
and frankly have no idea what to do with it.  Anybody?

Subject: [Plib-devel] Repost of HID Usage Tables

Hi,
I have re-posted this as may have got lost somewhere - sorry if you get
duplicate.

I am just joining plib devel in order to suggest some modifications to
joystick handling in MacOSX for use in FlightGear.
I am just looking at the USB "HID Usage tables" specification and for
Generic Desktop there are a few other useful things that might be reported
by a joystick or gamepad and also keypad and Multi-Axis-controller. Maybe we
need the "multi-access-controller' application and "wheel" dynamic for
example? I have already added and submitted to flightgear the
kHIDUsage_GD_Dial to jsMacOSX.cxx as this is reported by my Saitek X45
joystick but it needs to be more general.

/* GenericDesktop Page (0x01) */
enum
{
	kHIDUsage_GD_Pointer	= 0x01,	/* Physical Collection */
	kHIDUsage_GD_Mouse	= 0x02,	/* Application Collection */
	/* 0x03 Reserved */
	kHIDUsage_GD_Joystick	= 0x04,	/* Application Collection */
	kHIDUsage_GD_GamePad	= 0x05,	/* Application Collection */
	kHIDUsage_GD_Keyboard	= 0x06,	/* Application Collection */
	kHIDUsage_GD_Keypad	= 0x07,	/* Application Collection */
	kHIDUsage_GD_MultiAxisController	= 0x08,	/* Application
Collection */
	/* 0x09 - 0x2F Reserved */
	kHIDUsage_GD_X	= 0x30,	/* Dynamic Value */
	kHIDUsage_GD_Y	= 0x31,	/* Dynamic Value */
	kHIDUsage_GD_Z	= 0x32,	/* Dynamic Value */
	kHIDUsage_GD_Rx	= 0x33,	/* Dynamic Value */
	kHIDUsage_GD_Ry	= 0x34,	/* Dynamic Value */
	kHIDUsage_GD_Rz	= 0x35,	/* Dynamic Value */
	kHIDUsage_GD_Slider	= 0x36,	/* Dynamic Value */
	kHIDUsage_GD_Dial	= 0x37,	/* Dynamic Value */
	kHIDUsage_GD_Wheel	= 0x38,	/* Dynamic Value */
	kHIDUsage_GD_Hatswitch	= 0x39,	/* Dynamic Value */

also for future reference there is a "Simulation Page"  which if we can make
our own USB "cockpit" device may be useful. For example the following (and
more!) are
specifically mentioned:
/* Simulation Page (0x02) */
/* This section provides detailed descriptions of the usages employed by
simulation devices. */ enum {
	kHIDUsage_Sim_FlightSimulationDevice	= 0x01,/* Application
Collection 
*/
	kHIDUsage_Sim_AutomobileSimulationDevice= 0x02,/* Application
Collection */
	kHIDUsage_Sim_TankSimulationDevice	= 0x03,/* Application
Collection */
	kHIDUsage_Sim_SpaceshipSimulationDevice= 0x04,/* Application
Collection */
	kHIDUsage_Sim_SubmarineSimulationDevice= 0x05,/* Application
Collection */
	kHIDUsage_Sim_SailingSimulationDevice	= 0x06,/* Application
Collection 
*/
	kHIDUsage_Sim_MotorcycleSimulationDevice= 0x07,/* Application
Collection */
	kHIDUsage_Sim_SportsSimulationDevice	= 0x08, /* Application
Collection 
*/
	kHIDUsage_Sim_AirplaneSimulationDevice= 0x09, /* Application
Collection */
	kHIDUsage_Sim_HelicopterSimulationDevice= 0x0A,/* Application
Collection */
	kHIDUsage_Sim_MagicCarpetSimulationDevice= 0x0B,/* Application
Collection */
	kHIDUsage_Sim_BicycleSimulationDevice	= 0x0C,/* Application
Collection 
*/
	/* 0x0D - 0x1F Reserved */
	kHIDUsage_Sim_FlightControlStick	= 0x20,/* Application
Collection */
	kHIDUsage_Sim_FlightStick	= 0x21,	/* Application Collection */
	kHIDUsage_Sim_CyclicControl	= 0x22,	/* Physical Collection */
	kHIDUsage_Sim_CyclicTrim	= 0x23,	/* Physical Collection */
	kHIDUsage_Sim_FlightYoke	= 0x24,	/* Application Collection */
	kHIDUsage_Sim_TrackControl	= 0x25,	/* Physical Collection */
	/* 0x26 - 0xAF Reserved */
	kHIDUsage_Sim_Aileron	= 0xB0,	/* Dynamic Value */
	kHIDUsage_Sim_AileronTrim	= 0xB1,	/* Dynamic Value */
	kHIDUsage_Sim_AntiTorqueControl	= 0xB2,/* Dynamic Value */
	kHIDUsage_Sim_AutopilotEnable	= 0xB3,	/* On/Off Control */
	kHIDUsage_Sim_ChaffRelease	= 0xB4,	/* One-Shot Control */
	kHIDUsage_Sim_CollectiveControl	= 0xB5,/* Dynamic Value */
	kHIDUsage_Sim_DiveBrake	= 0xB6,	/* Dynamic Value */
etc. etc.

cheers
Jim
