I am finding that the bonescript attachInterrupt function doesn't seem to
work when the program is in a while statement. I need to loop indefinitely
while monitoring a process. As part of the monitoring I need to record a
switch closing so that's where the interrupt comes in...
*The interrupt here works just fine, but it doesn't loop so I can do the
rest of the monitoring and logging functions I want to do: *
var b = require('bonescript');
var cycles=0;
var inputPin = 'P8_19';
b.pinMode(inputPin, b.INPUT);
b.attachInterrupt(inputPin, true, b.CHANGE, cyclecounter);
function cyclecounter() {
cycles++);
}
*In this code the while loop allows me to monitor and log, but the
interrupt doesn't work from within the while loop, so I can't record
cycles:*
var b = require('bonescript');
var cycles=0;
var inputPin = 'P8_19';
b.pinMode(inputPin, b.INPUT);
b.attachInterrupt(inputPin, true, b.CHANGE, cyclecounter);
while (true){
//extensive code to monitor and log a process external to the beaglebone
black
}
function cyclecounter() {
cycles++);
}
*Is there a way I can setup an interrupt function within a while loop? *
This is my first time working with interrupts so I may be missing something
obvious... but if anyone can point me in the right direction it would be
greatly appreciated.
Cheers
