Of having to

A new Discharge Lounge has opened on the ground floor of Lincoln Wing at St James's, where relatives and transport crews are able to collect patients without the inconvenience of having to find parking spaces, or purchase a parking ticket, as there is a designated collection area immediately outside.
Is "having to" a participle acting as an object of preposition "of"?
when do we use "having to" in general?
thanks
