HID Manager

Hi All

I'm looking for help in finding some good (non Apple) info on using the HIDManager. I have a Velleman K8055 input output board that I am looking to write a driver for. I am hoping to be able to access the unit via a simple objective-c class.

I am new to mac development and obj-c / c which is probably why I'll finding Apple documentation a little hard going plus am coming from a PHP background.
The stuff on Apples site seems quite old in places so not sure what is relevant now and whats not.

I've also found that code from Apple like:

    CFIndex reportSize = 64; // note: this should be greater than or equal to the size of the report
    uint8_t report = malloc( reportSize );
Gives me errors like incompatible pointer to integer conversion. So Im unsure if the code is out of date or if I'm doing something wrong.

The net seems to be a little shy on documentation and and books I have purchased completely ignore  any IOKit stuff.

Any pointers to good documentation would be much appreciated

Cheers
Steve
