Custom message between stack task and application task

Hello Luca,

Can you provide an example on how you would want to define/send a custom message from the Stack task? It's generally advisable not to modify the stack task but instead create your own task to pass messages.

Best wishes

Hello JXS,

I am using HostTest on my custom USB dongle project.

I would like that the stack task could send a message/event to application task when, for example, it receives UTIL_ForceBoot message or before sending GAP_EstablishLink event message, like it does when it receives GAP_TerminateLinkRequest.

In such case I am able to receive the message in the application task loop:

if (errno == ICALL_ERRNO_SUCCESS)
    {
      ICall_EntityID dest;
      ICall_ServiceEnum src;
      ICall_HciExtEvt *pMsg = NULL;

      if (ICall_fetchServiceMsg(&src, &dest,
                                (void **)&pMsg) == ICALL_ERRNO_SUCCESS)
      {
        bool dealloc = true;

        if ((src == ICALL_SERVICE_CLASS_BLE) && (dest == selfEntity))
        {
          // Process incoming messages
          switch (pMsg->hdr.event)
          {
            case HCI_GAP_EVENT_EVENT:
              HostTestApp_processGapEvent(pMsg);
              break;
            default:
              break;
          }
        }

        if (dealloc == true)
        {
          ICall_freeMsg(pMsg);
        }
      }
    }

I would like a custom message/event to the application task with osal_msg_send, like I see in OnBoard_SendKeys:

    // Send the address to the task
    msgPtr = (keyChange_t *)osal_msg_allocate( sizeof(keyChange_t) );
    if ( msgPtr )
    {
      msgPtr->hdr.event = KEY_CHANGE;
      msgPtr->state = state;
      msgPtr->keys = keys;

      osal_msg_send( registeredKeysTaskID, (uint8 *)msgPtr );

What is the TaskID of the application task to use in osal_msg_send? How can I get it?

Thanks for your help.

Luca

 

 

Hi Luca,

I want to do the same thing. Have you resolved the problem?

Best regards,
