Detailed Description

Pack data into the "user data" field that gets sent to the dashboard laptop via the driver station.

Definition at line 20 of file Dashboard.h.

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

Dashboard::Dashboard ( SEM_ID  statusDataSem)
explicit

Dashboard contructor.

This is only called once when the DriverStation constructor is called.

Definition at line 21 of file Dashboard.cpp.

Dashboard::~Dashboard ( )
virtual

Dashboard destructor.

Called only when the DriverStation class is destroyed.

Definition at line 43 of file Dashboard.cpp.

Member Function Documentation

void Dashboard::AddArray ( )

Start an array in the packed dashboard data structure.

After calling AddArray(), call the appropriate Add method for each element of the array. Make sure you call the same add each time. An array must contain elements of the same type. You can use clusters inside of arrays to make each element of the array contain a structure of values. You can also nest arrays inside of other arrays. Every call to AddArray() must have a matching call to FinalizeArray().

Definition at line 196 of file Dashboard.cpp.

void Dashboard::AddBoolean ( bool  value)

Pack a boolean into the dashboard data structure.

Parameters
valueData to be packed into the structure.

Definition at line 155 of file Dashboard.cpp.

void Dashboard::AddCluster ( )

Start a cluster in the packed dashboard data structure.

After calling AddCluster(), call the appropriate Add method for each element of the cluster. You can use clusters inside of arrays to make each element of the array contain a structure of values. Every call to AddCluster() must have a matching call to FinalizeCluster().

Definition at line 236 of file Dashboard.cpp.

void Dashboard::AddDouble ( double  value)

Pack a 64-bit floating point number into the dashboard data structure.

Parameters
valueData to be packed into the structure.

Definition at line 143 of file Dashboard.cpp.

void Dashboard::AddFloat ( float  value)

Pack a 32-bit floating point number into the dashboard data structure.

Parameters
valueData to be packed into the structure.

Definition at line 131 of file Dashboard.cpp.

void Dashboard::AddI16 ( int16_t  value)

Pack a signed 16-bit int into the dashboard data structure.

Parameters
valueData to be packed into the structure.

Definition at line 71 of file Dashboard.cpp.

void Dashboard::AddI32 ( int32_t  value)

Pack a signed 32-bit int into the dashboard data structure.

Parameters
valueData to be packed into the structure.

Definition at line 83 of file Dashboard.cpp.

void Dashboard::AddI8 ( int8_t  value)

Pack a signed 8-bit int into the dashboard data structure.

Parameters
valueData to be packed into the structure.

Definition at line 59 of file Dashboard.cpp.

void Dashboard::AddString ( char *  value)

Pack a NULL-terminated string of 8-bit characters into the dashboard data structure.

Parameters
valueData to be packed into the structure.

Definition at line 167 of file Dashboard.cpp.

void Dashboard::AddString ( char *  value,
int32_t  length 
)

Pack a string of 8-bit characters of specified length into the dashboard data structure.

Parameters
valueData to be packed into the structure.
lengthThe number of bytes in the string to pack.

Definition at line 177 of file Dashboard.cpp.

void Dashboard::AddU16 ( uint16_t  value)

Pack an unsigned 16-bit int into the dashboard data structure.

Parameters
valueData to be packed into the structure.

Definition at line 107 of file Dashboard.cpp.

void Dashboard::AddU32 ( uint32_t  value)

Pack an unsigned 32-bit int into the dashboard data structure.

Parameters
valueData to be packed into the structure.

Definition at line 119 of file Dashboard.cpp.

void Dashboard::AddU8 ( uint8_t  value)

Pack an unsigned 8-bit int into the dashboard data structure.

Parameters
valueData to be packed into the structure.

Definition at line 95 of file Dashboard.cpp.

int32_t Dashboard::Finalize ( )

Indicate that the packing is complete and commit the buffer to the DriverStation.

The packing of the dashboard packet is complete. If you are not using the packed dashboard data, you can call Finalize() to commit the Printf() buffer and the error string buffer. In effect, you are packing an empty structure. Prepares a packet to go to the dashboard...

Returns
The total size of the data packed into the userData field of the status packet.

Definition at line 298 of file Dashboard.cpp.

void Dashboard::FinalizeArray ( )

Indicate the end of an array packed into the dashboard data structure.

After packing data into the array, call FinalizeArray(). Every call to AddArray() must have a matching call to FinalizeArray().

Definition at line 211 of file Dashboard.cpp.

void Dashboard::FinalizeCluster ( )

Indicate the end of a cluster packed into the dashboard data structure.

After packing data into the cluster, call FinalizeCluster(). Every call to AddCluster() must have a matching call to FinalizeCluster().

Definition at line 247 of file Dashboard.cpp.

void Dashboard::GetStatusBuffer ( char **  userStatusData,
int32_t *  userStatusDataSize 
)
virtual

Called by the DriverStation class to retrieve buffers, sizes, etc. for writing to the NetworkCommunication task. This function is called while holding the m_statusDataSemaphore.

Implements DashboardBase.

Definition at line 331 of file Dashboard.cpp.

void Dashboard::Printf ( const char *  writeFmt,
  ... 
)

Print a string to the UserData text on the Dashboard.

This will add text to the buffer to send to the dashboard. You must call Finalize() periodically to actually send the buffer to the dashboard if you are not using the packed dashboard data.
