Typedef Documentation

typedef void(* le_timer_ExpiryHandler_t) (le_timer_Ref_t timerRef)

Prototype for timer expiry handler function.

Parameters

timerRef

Timer that has expired

typedef struct le_timer* le_timer_Ref_t

Timer object. Created by le_timer_Create().

Function Documentation

le_timer_Ref_t le_timer_Create

(

const char *

nameStr

)

Create the timer object.

Returns

Reference to the timer object.

Parameters

[in]

nameStr

Name of the timer.

void le_timer_Delete

(

le_timer_Ref_t

timerRef

)

Delete the timer object.

Note

If an invalid timer object is given, the process exits.

Parameters

[in]

timerRef

Delete this timer object

void* le_timer_GetContextPtr

(

le_timer_Ref_t

timerRef

)

Get context pointer for the timer.

This can be used when the timer expires to retrieve data that was previously set.

Returns

Context pointer, which could be NULL if it was not set.

Note

If an invalid timer object is given, the process exits.

Parameters

[in]

timerRef

Set interval for this timer object.

uint32_t le_timer_GetExpiryCount

(

le_timer_Ref_t

timerRef

)

Get the expiry count of a timer.

The count is returned for currently running and idle timers. The expiry count is reset every time the timer is (re)started.

Returns

Expiry count, or zero if the timer has never expired.

Note

If an invalid timer object is given, the process exits.

Parameters

[in]

timerRef

Set interval for this timer object.

bool le_timer_IsRunning

(

le_timer_Ref_t

timerRef

)

Is the timer currently running?

Note

If an invalid timer object is given, the process exits.

Parameters

[in]

timerRef

Is this timer object currently running?

void le_timer_Restart

(

le_timer_Ref_t

timerRef

)

Re-start the timer.

Start the given timer. If the timer is currently running, it will be stopped and then started. If the timer is not currently running, it will be started.

Note

If an invalid timer object is given, the process exits.

Parameters

[in]

timerRef

(Re)start this timer object.

le_result_t le_timer_SetContextPtr	(	le_timer_Ref_t	timerRef,
		void *	contextPtr
	)

Set context pointer for the timer.

This can be used to pass data to the timer when it expires.

Returns

• LE_OK on success
• LE_BUSY if the timer is currently running

Note

If an invalid timer object is given, the process exits.

Parameters

[in]	timerRef	Set interval for this timer object.
[in]	contextPtr	Context Pointer.

le_result_t le_timer_SetHandler	(	le_timer_Ref_t	timerRef,
		le_timer_ExpiryHandler_t	handlerRef
	)

Set the timer expiry handler function.

If the handler is NULL, then the previous handler will be removed.

Returns

• LE_OK on success
• LE_BUSY if the timer is currently running

Note

If an invalid timer object is given, the process exits.

Parameters

[in]	timerRef	Set expiry handler for this timer object.
[in]	handlerRef	Handler function to call on expiry.

le_result_t le_timer_SetInterval	(	le_timer_Ref_t	timerRef,
		le_clk_Time_t	interval
	)

Set the timer interval.

Timer will expire after the interval has elapsed.

Returns

• LE_OK on success
• LE_BUSY if the timer is currently running

Note

If an invalid timer object is given, the process exits.

Parameters

[in]	timerRef	Set interval for this timer object.
[in]	interval	Timer interval.

le_result_t le_timer_SetRepeat	(	le_timer_Ref_t	timerRef,
		uint32_t	repeatCount
	)

Set how many times the timer will repeat.

Timer will repeat the given number of times. A value of 0 means repeat indefinitely. The default is 1, so that a one-shot timer is the default.

Returns

• LE_OK on success
• LE_BUSY if the timer is currently running

Note

If an invalid timer object is given, the process exits.

Parameters

[in]	timerRef	Set interval for this timer object.
[in]	repeatCount	Number of times the timer will repeat.

le_result_t le_timer_Start

(

le_timer_Ref_t

timerRef

)

Start the timer.

Start the given timer. The timer must not be currently running.

Returns

• LE_OK on success
• LE_BUSY if the timer is already running

Note

If an invalid timer object is given, the process exits.

Parameters

[in]

timerRef

Start this timer object.

le_result_t le_timer_Stop

(

le_timer_Ref_t

timerRef

)

Stop the timer.

Stop the given timer. The timer must be running.

Returns

• LE_OK on success
• LE_FAULT if the timer is not currently running

Note

If an invalid timer object is given, the process exits.

Parameters

[in]

timerRef

Stop this timer object.
