Hey all,

Let me know if you've encountered something similar to this:

In my application, I am controlling two IOIO concurrently, but 
independently (one through USB, the other through Bluetooth).  I am using 
these two boards to perform I2C reads/writes to two separate devices.  All 
of my I2C stuff is working fine, so assume that code is correct.

My goal is to read a register value from the BT devices, and update a value 
on the USB device.  I have two IOIOLoopers (one for USB, one for 
Bluetooth), and I want to* first* read the value from the BT board, *then 
*update 
the value on the USB board (using a simple proportional control algorithm). 
 How can I do this correctly? I believe the two Loopers are treated as two 
separate threads and they are running simultaneously? I know about the 
Thread.join() function, but I'm not sure how I can differentiate between 
the two threads in code to make one wait for the other.

Here is a skeleton of my setup (I only have one activity):

public class Main Activity extends IOIOActivity{

onCreate(){

...

}

class MyBluetoothLooper extends BaseIOIOLooper {


void setup(){ 

 

...


 }

 

void loop(){ 


i2c.read(...); 

 

Thread.sleep(100);


 }


...


}


 

class MyUSBLooper extends BaseIOIOLooper {


void setup(){

 

...


 }

 

void loop(){


i2c.write(...); 

 

Thread.sleep(100);


 }


...


}

 
...

}

If anyone has any experience with this type of IOIO use case, or more 
experience with Thread handling in Java/Android (I am relatively new), I 
could really use some help.

Thanks,

Eric
