- Tue Aug 18, 2015 2:20 am #26332 Can a SDK API function be called directly in the main code of Sming framework? Or does one need to write some library wrapper to do that?

- Wed Aug 26, 2015 1:56 pm #27107 No, a SDK API function cannot be used directly in the sming framework.
Although when adding the function definition and the right linker specification to the application it can be used.

If you require specific SDK functions, feel free to mention them and if required by more they could be added to Sming

Suppose I want to call

Code: Select allwifi_station_set_reconnect_policy(true)

as an example. I was hoping I can do it by calling it in application.cpp. How do I add the function definition and the right linker spec to call wifi_station_set_reconnect_policy(true) in application.cpp, if this is possible? Any sample on how to call a SDK API function on a SMING app?

Not sure why but when I include the

Code: Select all   wifi_station_set_reconnect_policy(true);


into an example application I can compile without errors.
Earlier usage of other sdk functions needed additional effort so there must be difference between sdk functions.

Can you try whether your application compiles and runs OK ?
If yes, I will further investigate why and which difference exist
