Detailed Description

Functions for iterating over fields in a MIP packet.

Use these functions to iterate over the fields in a MIP packet.

Example:

// Iterate over fields, starting with the first in the packet.
// Continue as long as a valid field is found.
for(mip_field field = mip_field_from_packet(packet); mip_field_is_valid(&field); mip_field_next(&field))
{
    // Check the field descriptor for what kind of data it holds.
    switch( mip_field_field_desriptor(&field) )
    {
    case MIP_DATA_DESC_SENSOR_SCALED_ACCEL:
        break;
    }
}

Function Documentation

◆ mip_field_first_from_packet()

mip_field_view mip::C::mip_field_first_from_packet ( const mip_packet_view * packet )

Extracts the first field from a MIP packet.

Typically this would be used as the first step when iterating through all fields in a received packet. To access each field after the first, call mip_field_next(). You should call mip_field_is_at_end() or mip_field_is_valid() after obtaining each field (including the first) to determine if the field is actually valid.

Parameters

packet The mip packet containing 0 or more fields. Assumed to be valid, and the payload pointer and size must be correct.

Returns: A mip_field struct with the first field from the packet.

◆ mip_field_from_header_ptr()

mip_field_view mip::C::mip_field_from_header_ptr	(	const uint8_t *	header,
		uint8_t	total_length,
		uint8_t	descriptor_set
	)

Constructs a mip_field from a pointer to the heaader.

Generally you should use mip_field_from_packet() or mip_field_create() instead.

Parameters

header	A pointer to the header and payload. Usually inside of a MIP packet.
total_length	The total length of either the field or packet payload, starting from header_ptr and including the header bytes. If total_length is longer than the field (i.e. if it's the packet payload length) then mip_field_next() may be used to iterate fields.
descriptor_set	The descriptor set for the packet containing this field. May be 0x00 if not used by any function handling the field.

Returns: a mip_field struct with the field data.

◆ mip_field_init_empty()

void mip::C::mip_field_init_empty ( mip_field_view * field )

Initialize a mip_field struct to an invalid/empty state.

Intended to be used with mip_field_next_in_packet. The field will not be valid (mip_field_is_valid will return false).

Parameters

field

◆ mip_field_next()

bool mip::C::mip_field_next ( mip_field_view * field )

Updates the mip_field to refer to the next field in a packet.

Parameters

field This mip_field struct will be updated to the next field._ Can be an invalid field, in which case the result will be invalid as well.

Returns: true if the field exists and is valid.

◆ mip_field_next_after()

mip_field_view mip::C::mip_field_next_after ( const mip_field_view * field )

Gets the next field after the specified field.

Parameters

field An existing MIP field in a packet. Can be invalid, in which case the result will also be invalid.

Returns: A mip_field struct referencing the next field after the input field._ Check mip_field_is_valid() to see if the field exists.

◆ mip_field_next_in_packet()

bool mip::C::mip_field_next_in_packet	(	mip_field_view *	field,
		const mip_packet_view *	packet
	)

Iterates over all fields in a packet.

Parameters

field	An initialized mip_field struct. This will be updated to the next field in the packet, if one exists. Otherwise it will be invalid.
packet	A valid MIP packet.

Returns: true if another field exists.; false if there are no more fields.

Example usage:

struct mip_field field;
mip_field_init_empty(&field);
while( mip_field_next_in_packet(&field, packet) )
{
  // Do something with the field.
}
