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

result	Negative error code on failure or value that represents the number of DNS records
address	On success, destination for the host SocketAddress.

Construct SoftAP interface.

Returns

pointer to default WhdSoftAPInterface instance

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

Parameters

address

Address for the dns host.

Returns

NSAPI_ERROR_OK on success, negative error code on failure.

Implements DNS.

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_cb

The callback for status changes.

Register callback for status reporting.

The specified status callback function will be called on status changes on the network. The parameters on the callback are the event type and event-type dependent reason parameter. Only one callback can be registered at a time.

To unregister a callback call with status_cb parameter as a zero.

NOTE: Any callbacks registered with this function will be overwritten if add_event_listener() API is used.

Parameters

status_cb

The callback for status changes.

Reimplemented from NetworkInterface.

Return pointer to a CellularInterface.

Returns

Pointer to requested interface type or NULL if this class doesn't implement the interface.

Connect to a network.

This blocks until connection is established, but asynchronous operation can be enabled by calling NetworkInterface::set_blocking(false).

In asynchronous mode this starts the connection sequence and returns immediately. Status of the connection can then checked from NetworkInterface::get_connection_status() or from status callbacks.

NetworkInterface internally handles reconnections until disconnect() is called.

Returns

NSAPI_ERROR_OK if connection established in blocking mode.

NSAPI_ERROR_OK if asynchronous operation started.

NSAPI_ERROR_BUSY if asynchronous operation cannot be started. Implementation guarantees event generation, which can be used as an trigger to reissue the rejected request.

NSAPI_ERROR_IS_CONNECTED if already connected.

negative error code on failure.

Implements NetworkInterface.

Disconnect from the network.

This blocks until interface is disconnected, unless interface is set to asynchronous (non-blocking) mode by calling NetworkInterface::set_blocking(false).

Returns

NSAPI_ERROR_OK on successfully disconnected in blocking mode.

NSAPI_ERROR_OK if asynchronous operation started.

NSAPI_ERROR_BUSY if asynchronous operation cannot be started. Implementation guarantees event generation, which can be used as an trigger to reissue the rejected request.

NSAPI_ERROR_NO_CONNECTION if already disconnected.

negative error code on failure.

Implements NetworkInterface.

Translate a hostname to the multiple IP addresses 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.

hostname	Hostname to resolve.
hints	Pointer to a SocketAddress with query parameters.
res	Pointer to a SocketAddress array to store the result..
interface_name	Network interface name

Returns

Implements DNS.

Translate a hostname to the multiple IP addresses (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.

hints	Pointer to a SocketAddress with query parameters.
callback	Callback that is called for result.
interface_name	Network interface name

Returns

0 on immediate success, negative error code on immediate failure or a positive unique id that represents the hostname translation operation and can be passed to cancel.
