Hello everybody,

When requesting a new report, HidD_GetInputReport keep getting the old report which is troublesome because some of my requsts are same repeated command, this causes my program to exit before really get things done first.

I feel this maybe a question that has been asked before, Please help!

Make the ReadFile buffer big enough to hold all available reports and discard the older ones.

Hi, Jan,

Thanks for comment.

I am not using ReadFile, but using HidD_SetOutputReport. I find HidD_SetOutputReport always can return successfully, but could hold the old data. I feel though this might be normal?

Thanks again!

Yes, you'll get the oldest report first.
