Hi, i'm making a class where i need to wait inside a function for an event.
The problem is, this event is a Event RX from the Comm Port. I need to read
several Messages from the port before let the funtion to continue, so i need
do something like:
//---------------------------------------------
msg GetMessage(){
while(Not Have all the Message OR TimeOut is Reached){
Wait.....
}
return CompleteMessage //Global Variable;
}
//---------------------------------------------
Event Function (Read From the Port Event){
CompleteMessage += ReadFromtheCommPort();
}
/---------------------------------------------------------------------------
-----------------
My problem of course is a While with a ";", so i neever reach the Event
handler function and my App hang on. I need only an IDEA because I don't
have more.
I preciate any, ANY idea. i made it with WM_USER messages, but i need a way
to make from other application only "MyLocal = GETSOMETHING()"; where that
getsomething is a function how wait information from the port for a specific
time is gone or a message received Without hang on my app.
Thanks, and sorry if my knowlege is not much (in case all this is wrong
;-) ).
