@section{description}

Human input devices can be used as controllers for making music. This class can be used in conjunction with link::Classes/HIDFunc:: or link::Classes/HIDdef:: to match incoming messages with a particular link::Classes/HID:: device.

HIDProto has all the variables that specify an HID device. The more of these variables you specify, the more need to be matched when filtering the incoming HID data.

@section{CLASSMETHODS}
 

@section{METHOD}
  new
Create a new instance of HIDProto.


@section{METHOD}
  newType
Create a new instance of HIDProto based on usage and usagePage of the device.

@section{ARGUMENT}
  uName
Name of the usage id

@section{ARGUMENT}
  pName
Name of the usage page id

@section{returns}
   an HIDProto

@section{METHOD}
  newProduct
Create a new instance of HIDProto based on the product information.

@section{ARGUMENT}
  pName
The product name to match.

@section{ARGUMENT}
  vName
The vendor name to match.

@section{returns}
  an HIDProto


@section{METHOD}
  newFromDict
Create a new instance of HIDProto based on an IdentityDictionary with a set of parameters to match.

@section{ARGUMENT}
  dict
An IdentityDictionary with a set of parameters to match. The keys in the dictionary should be one of the instance variables of HIDProto.

@section{returns}
  an HIDProto

@section{METHOD}
  usagePage
The usage page ID of the device to match (see also link::Classes/HIDInfo::).

@section{METHOD}
  usageName
The usage name of the device to match (see also link::Classes/HIDInfo::).
