Function Documentation

bool emberAfPluginPollingOkToLongPollCallback ( void )

This function is called by the Polling plugin to determine if the node can wait an extended period of time between polls. Generally, a node can poll infrequently when it does not expect to receive data, via its parent, from other nodes in the network. When data is expected, the node must poll more frequently to avoid having its parent discard stale data due to the MAC indirect transmission timeout ( EMBER_INDIRECT_TRANSMISSION_TIMEOUT ). The application should return true if it is not expecting data or false otherwise.
