1## pp_data_dump.exe for Windows
2
3
4pp_data_dump.exe is a small command line tool for Windows, which dumps the content of the [Preparsed Data](https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows-hardware/drivers/hid/preparsed-data) structure, provided by the Windows HID subsystem, into a file.
5
6The generated file is in a text format, which is readable for human, as by the hid_report_reconstructor_test.exe unit test executable of the HIDAPI project. This unit test allows it to test the HIDAPIs report descriptor reconstructor - offline, without the hardware device connected.
7
8pp_data_dump.exe has no arguments, just connect you HID device and execute pp_data_dump.exe. It will generate one file with the name
9```
10<vendor_id>_<product_id>_<usage>_<usage_table>.pp_data
11```
12for each top-level collection, of each connected HID device.
13
14
15## File content
16
17The content of such a .pp_data file looks like the struct, which HIDAPI uses internally to represent the Preparsed Data.
18
19*NOTE:
20Windows parses HID report descriptors into opaque `_HIDP_PREPARSED_DATA` objects.
21The internal structure of `_HIDP_PREPARSED_DATA` is reserved for internal system use.\
22Microsoft doesn't document this structure. [hid_preparsed_data.cc](https://chromium.googlesource.com/chromium/src/+/73fdaaf605bb60caf34d5f30bb84a417688aa528/services/device/hid/hid_preparsed_data.cc) is taken as a reference for its parsing.*
