For some cables a boolean variable will not be enough to represent the state and properties of the cable. For example a charger cable can have states CONNECT,DISCOONECT,SUSPEND(Host suspend for SDP cable), RESUME(Host wakeup), and UPDATE (to increase the charge current after USB enumaeration).Also the properties of the cable may vary based on the state. FOr example in SUSPENDED state platforms can support 0/100/500/950(USB 3.0) mA based on the HW. To initiate charging the consumer should be able to get the charger properties dynamically.
