Hi.
I'm working in a project where the goal is to provide in JavaScript some
functions to access to an hardware platform. The hardware platform provides
a library and a header with the functions available. We are building some
nodeJS addons on the top of these functions. The problem is , answers
given by the hardware are event based, and function to deal with those
events must be passed to the hardware during the start up an then the
hardware will call that function in another thread. This *prevents me from
using a callback* inside of the Interruption_handler function.
*Interruption_handler*(*data){
// if data == 1;
// do something();
// curl -> Make request to the server
}
Handle<Value> Start(const Arguments& args){
Hardware_Setup(*Interruption_handler*)
}
void Init(...){
node::SetMethod(exports, "Start", Start);
}
NODE_MODULE(addon, Init)
So, i tried to solve the problem by using *curl* to make a request to a
nodeJS *server* from inside the Interruption_handler(). This server is
running in the same nodejs instance where the the JavaScript functions to
access the hardware are called. I thought this was a good idea, but *curl
just hangs*. If i put the server in another node instance, everything *works
OK*.
I've already tried to use libuv, but curl still hangs. Any ideas on why
curl is hanging or how to solve this problem?
Thanks in advance.
