Legacy event loop

API Reference

Functions

esp_err_t esp_event_send(system_event_t *event)

Send a event to event task.

Other task/modules, such as the tcpip_adapter, can call this API to send an event to event task

Note

This API is part of the legacy event system. New code should use event library API in esp_event.h

Return

ESP_OK : succeed

Return

others : fail

Parameters

  • event: Event to send

esp_err_t esp_event_send_internal(esp_event_base_t event_base, int32_t event_id, void *event_data, size_t event_data_size, TickType_t ticks_to_wait)

Send a event to event task.

Other task/modules, such as the tcpip_adapter, can call this API to send an event to event task

Note

This API is used by WiFi Driver only.

Return

ESP_OK : succeed

Return

others : fail

Parameters

  • [in] event_base: the event base that identifies the event

  • [in] event_id: the event id that identifies the event

  • [in] event_data: the data, specific to the event occurence, that gets passed to the handler

  • [in] event_data_size: the size of the event data

  • [in] ticks_to_wait: number of ticks to block on a full event queue

esp_err_t esp_event_process_default(system_event_t *event)

Default event handler for system events.

This function performs default handling of system events. When using esp_event_loop APIs, it is called automatically before invoking the user-provided callback function.

Note

This API is part of the legacy event system. New code should use event library API in esp_event.h

Applications which implement a custom event loop must call this function as part of event processing.

Return

ESP_OK if an event was handled successfully

Parameters

  • event: pointer to event to be handled

void esp_event_set_default_eth_handlers(void)

Install default event handlers for Ethernet interface.

Note

This API is part of the legacy event system. New code should use event library API in esp_event.h

void esp_event_set_default_wifi_handlers(void)

Install default event handlers for Wi-Fi interfaces (station and AP)

Note

This API is part of the legacy event system. New code should use event library API in esp_event.h

esp_err_t esp_event_loop_init(system_event_cb_t cb, void *ctx)

Initialize event loop.

Create the event handler and task

Note

This API is part of the legacy event system. New code should use event library API in esp_event.h

Return

  • ESP_OK: succeed

  • others: fail

Parameters

  • cb: application specified event callback, it can be modified by call esp_event_set_cb

  • ctx: reserved for user

system_event_cb_t esp_event_loop_set_cb(system_event_cb_t cb, void *ctx)

Set application specified event callback function.

Note

This API is part of the legacy event system. New code should use event library API in esp_event.h

Attention

1. If cb is NULL, means application don’t need to handle If cb is not NULL, it will be call when an event is received, after the default event callback is completed

Return

old callback

Parameters

  • cb: application callback function

  • ctx: argument to be passed to callback
