It is not documented in the CoreAudio nor in the AudioUnits docs. The
code (AudioUnitProparties.h) also does not have any comments about


I don't remember where I found it, but this flag means that the parameter
cannot be adequately described in 8bits (eg 0-127) of resolution. Mostly
applies to hardware HUIs for stuff like MIDI control.

Thanks, Kevin, but I need a more formal definition for the meaning of this flag.

I'm developing AU plugins that need to work on all AU hosts. The parameters of these plugins are in the 0-1000 range with Float32 resolution. With Logic I found that if  I declare the paraemter's unit kAudioUnitParameterUnit_Generic I get integer only  resolution from the Logic automation. i.e. if I record the value of 100.25, the automation playback send me back 100.00. If I add the flag kAudioUnitParameterFlag_IsHighResolution I get back correct values. I'm not still no sure what happens on other hosts.

So actually me questions are:
1) How to define a generic parameter with Float32 resolution that will work with automation on all hosts?
2) Is it possible to have a complete documentation on the meaning to all the parameter flags?
