CC3200: Working with simplelink without OS support

Vipin Kumar Gahlaut

Hi,

Is it possible to use simplelink for WiFi connectivity without using any RTOS?

I tried to use getting_started_with_wlan_station example without spawing task. It stucks in WlanConnect() because SimpleLinkWlanEventHandler never invoked.

Yes, you can use without RTOS. The following is from the Host Driver API documentation (provided with the SDK)

The SimpleLink driver could run on two kind of platforms:

Non-Os / Single Threaded (default)
Multi-Threaded

I believe you will need to use something like the following in non OS environments

while (1)
{
_SlNonOsMainLoopTask();
}

Check out some of he other examples int he SDK, for example the mdns one does not use any RTOS
