Method Summary

Modifier and Type	Method and Description
CanOpenProxy	getTcpProxy()
boolean	isCWrapperConnected() This method returns true if the C-Wrapper is connected to the tcp proxy.
boolean	isHardwareReady() returns true if the hardware is booted, identified.
boolean	isRealHardware()
CanOpenProxy.PDOStorage	readPDOs()
void	startServer()
void	startThreadReader()

Method Detail

isCWrapperConnected

boolean isCWrapperConnected()

This method returns true if the C-Wrapper is connected to the tcp proxy. The C-Wrapper has to send the tcpProxy clientName as a keyword before any communication can begin. So if the C-Wrapper doesn't send the good keyword or if it doesn't connect to the tcp proxy, this method returns false.

isRealHardware

boolean isRealHardware()

Returns:

true if this bridge is connected with real hardware, false if the hardware is simulated.

isHardwareReady

boolean isHardwareReady()

returns true if the hardware is booted, identified.

getTcpProxy

CanOpenProxy getTcpProxy()

startServer

void startServer()

startThreadReader

void startThreadReader()

readPDOs

CanOpenProxy.PDOStorage readPDOs()
