History
The proposal was accepted at the November 2011 meeting.This feature is implemented in the CCID reader revision 6258 and will be available in the next CCID driver release.

One of the planed user of this feature is OpenSC. I, sometimes, get bug reports because the OpenSC card driver is sending an extended APDU to a reader that do not support it.The idea is to use
PCSCv2_PART10_PROPERTY_dwMaxAPDUDataSize
in OpenSC and display a clear message to the user.Conclusion
PCSCv2_PART10_PROPERTY_dwMaxAPDUDataSize
is now available for you. Use it if/when you need this feature.
