# parseLEDElement

Parses an element to see if it supports LED usages.

## Declaration

```occ
virtual bool parseLEDElement(IOHIDElement *element);
```

## Parameters

- `element`: An IOHIDElement object to parse.

## Return Value

Return Value true on success, otherwise false.

## Discussion

Discussion This method checks the element to determine if it contains LED data suitable for dispatching in an event. If it does, the method stores a reference to the element for later use. When the driver object receives subsequent reports from the device, it uses the information in the stored LED elements to dispatch LED-specific events.
