6.30 beta 4 GetHIDReportDescriptor windows x64

[miso]

Please don't be too harsh with me, if I'm mistaken.
I could not get the hexdump of the descriptor with GetHIDReportDescriptor(#HID) command. It should return return a string, but I get only an empty string. A binary would be fine too.

This Zip only contains txt, code and some info.
It lists all the already connected gamepads and joysticks, displays their info, and tries to open them to get the descriptor to put into the debug window for test. Will show things and tries to get data only if such game device is connected.

Really nice lists, full of detail. Thanks for share miso!
Here same with HID.

I changed the code a little and got a report descriptor.

This is not a string, but binary data. Here is a similar descriptor from a test project.

Function GetHIDReportDescriptor() must return a pointer.

I was expecting to populate a buffer, but the ide compiler gave the error, it requires a string. I thought maybe I will get an decription of a sting version of it like "A20B" etc, but the string remained empty.

With Idles help ( he has the original hidlib wrapped), I could get the hexdump to a buffer.
Though, I could not use the PB one built in the beta. (nor with string nor with buffer)

@Pede, thanks: I just woke up, so I did not test this, but linking to the lib directly should work.

@User Russian: The compiler gave me an error if not returned to a string. The vendorid is a string also, while in the lib it's an uint16.
Autocomplete and the command help shows only 1 parameter for the command, and that is the #HID ID.

@Pede: Tested, that works. Thanks.
