Title: A realy stupid question
Post by: towlerg on April 05, 2013, 07:22:35 pm

I see the terms "generic" and "generic HID" used, is this two distinct things (classes?) or do they both mean the same thing?

"generic HID" means a HID-class device that isn't a system mouse or keyboard and that uses vendor-defined report items.

"generic" can describe other things besides HIDs of course.
