Detailed Description

WhdSoftAPInterface class Implementation of the SoftAPInterface for the Whd.

Definition at line 45 of file WhdSoftAPInterface.h.

Member Typedef Documentation

typedef mbed::Callback<void (nsapi_error_t result, SocketAddress *address)> hostbyname_cb_t
inherited

Hostname translation callback (for use with gethostbyname_async()).

Callback will be called after DNS resolution completes or a failure occurs.

Note
Callback should not take more than 10ms to execute, otherwise it might prevent underlying thread processing. A portable user of the callback should not make calls to network operations due to stack size limitations. The callback should not perform expensive operations such as socket recv/send calls or blocking operations.
Parameters
resultNSAPI_ERROR_OK on success, negative error code on failure.
addressOn success, destination for the host SocketAddress.

Definition at line 219 of file NetworkInterface.h.

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

WhdSoftAPInterface ( WHD_EMAC emac = WHD_EMAC::get_instance(WHD_AP_ROLE),
OnboardNetworkStack stack = OnboardNetworkStack::get_default_instance(),
whd_interface_shared_info_t shared = whd_iface_shared 
)

Construct SoftAP interface.

Returns
pointer to default WhdSoftAPInterface instance

Member Function Documentation

virtual nsapi_error_t add_dns_server ( const SocketAddress address,
const char *  interface_name 
)
virtualinherited

Add a domain name server to list of servers to query.

Parameters
addressAddress for the dns host.
Returns
NSAPI_ERROR_OK on success, negative error code on failure.

Implements DNS.

void add_event_listener ( mbed::Callback< void(nsapi_event_t, intptr_t)>  status_cb)
inherited

Add event listener for interface.

This API allows multiple callback to be registered for a single interface. When first called, internal list of event handlers are created and registered to interface through attach() API.

Application may only use attach() or add_event_listener() interface. Mixing usage of both leads to undefined behavior.

Parameters
status_cbThe callback for status changes.
virtual void attach ( mbed::Callback< void(nsapi_event_t, intptr_t)>  status_cb)
virtualinherited

Register callback for status reporting.

Parameters
status_cbThe callback for status changes

const char *  interface_name = NULL 
)
virtualinherited

Translate a hostname to an IP address with specific version using network interface name.

The hostname may be either a domain name or an IP address. If the hostname is an IP address, no network transactions will be performed.

If no stack-specific DNS resolution is provided, the hostname will be resolve using a UDP socket on the stack.

Parameters
hostHostname to resolve.
addressPointer to a SocketAddress to store the result.

const char *  interface_name = NULL 
)
virtualinherited

Translate a hostname to an IP address (asynchronous) using network interface name.

The hostname may be either a domain name or a dotted IP address. If the hostname is an IP address, no network transactions will be performed.

If no stack-specific DNS resolution is provided, the hostname will be resolve using a UDP socket on the stack.

Call is non-blocking. Result of the DNS operation is returned by the callback. If this function returns failure, callback will not be called. In case result is success (IP address was found from DNS cache), callback will be called before function returns.

Parameters
hostHostname to resolve.
callbackCallback that is called for result.
versionIP version of address to resolve, NSAPI_UNSPEC indicates version is chosen by the stack (defaults to NSAPI_UNSPEC).
interface_nameNetwork interface name
