Method Summary

void	addDevice(IUID pDeviceCLSID, Object initializationData) Creates a single device given the CLSID, then passes initializationData to IInputDevice::Startup.
IExtension	findDevice(Object nameOrID) Finds the input device by CLSID (IUID) or name (String).
IExtension	getDevice(int index) The input device at the specified index.
IUID	getDeviceCLSID(int index) The CLSID of the input device at the specified index.
int	getDeviceCount() The number of input devices loaded in the application.
void	shutdownDevices() Shuts down and releases the extensions that are loaded and calls IExtension::Shutdown.
void	startupDevices(Object initializationData) Creates and starts the devices for Inut Device component category, passing initializationData to each in IInputDevice::Startup.
