Description

Are there any online samples for how to develop a HID client driver that speaks HID below and exposes itself as something else above?

I've already examined the vhidmini2 & hidusbfx2 samples. Unfortunately, both samples expose themselves as HID devices above, which is something else than what I'm trying to do. I've also tried reading the Minidrivers and the HID class driver documentation, but remain unsure if a WDF HID minidriver is really the right approach for my problem in the first place. Any comments on that?

The request have already been posted on https://community.osr.com/t/hid-client-driver-sample/59583 , but I did not receive any response there.
