PID class driver

NTDEV
1

In the Physical Interface Device Specification (pid1_01.pdf), they said the PID class is the extension of HID class for devices that require physical feedback. Can somebody tell me whether the PID class driver exist?
PS: My purpose is to write a force feedback joystick driver.

I don’t remember if hidusb supports PID or not, but if not, it would be rather easy to write a new USB based hid miniport in KMDF that does the job

@Doron:
In the latest WinDDK sample source folder I can’t find any sample driver about force feedback handling. Can you tell me how to do this in HID miniport driver? (Or where can I find the solution?)
Thanks.

There has never been a force feedback hid miniport sample in the wdk. You will have to take one of the existing hid miniport samples and start from there. I think alot of the work will actually be in the joystick’s inf to describe the forcefeedback features

tiny phone keyboard + fat thumbs = you do the muth
