Functions

void halInternalInitButton (void)
Initializes the buttons. This function is automatically called by halInit() .
uint8_t halButtonState (uint8_t button)
Returns the current state (pressed or released) of a button.
uint8_t halButtonPinState (uint8_t button)
Returns the current state (pressed or released) of the pin associated with a button.
void halButtonIsr (uint8_t button, uint8_t state)
A callback called in interrupt context whenever a button changes its state.

Button State Definitions

A set of numerical definitions for use with the button APIs indicating the state of a button.

#define BUTTON_PRESSED 1
Button state is pressed.
#define BUTTON_RELEASED 0

Function Documentation

void halButtonIsr ( uint8_t button,
uint8_t state
)

A callback called in interrupt context whenever a button changes its state.

Must be implemented by the application. This function should contain the functionality to be executed in response to changes of state in each of the buttons, or callbacks to the appropriate functionality.

Parameters
button The button which has changed state, either BUTTON0 or BUTTON1 as defined in the appropriate BOARD_HEADER.
state The new state of the button referenced by the button parameter, either BUTTON_PRESSED if the button has been pressed or BUTTON_RELEASED if the button has been released.
uint8_t halButtonPinState ( uint8_t button )

Returns the current state (pressed or released) of the pin associated with a button.

This reads the actual state of the pin and can be used on startup to determine the initial position of the buttons.

Parameters
button The button being queried, either BUTTON0 or BUTTON1 as defined in the appropriate BOARD_HEADER.
Returns
BUTTON_PRESSED if the button is pressed or BUTTON_RELEASED if the button is not pressed.
uint8_t halButtonState ( uint8_t button )

Returns the current state (pressed or released) of a button.

Note
This function is correlated with halButtonIsr() and so returns the shadow state rather than reading the actual state of the pin.
Parameters
button The button being queried, either BUTTON0 or BUTTON1 as defined in the appropriate BOARD_HEADER.
Returns
BUTTON_PRESSED if the button is pressed or BUTTON_RELEASED if the button is not pressed.
void halInternalInitButton ( void )

Initializes the buttons. This function is automatically called by halInit() .
