These input device component interfaces have been provided for simple use of everyday components. Components must be wired up correctly before use in code.

The classes in the sections above are derived from a series of base classes, some of which are effectively abstract. The classes form the (partial) hierarchy displayed in the graph below:

The following sections document these base classes for advanced users that wish to construct classes for their own devices.
