Herman,
You comments made me think of something that I do. See function below. My
code works fine, but now Im a bit worried. What I need to know is whether
EvtAddEventToQueue copies the data from the pointer (hopefully) or uses the
pointer when the event is in the queue and eventually comes out. I assume
it copies it as I use this a lot and it does not crash. Can anyone put my
mind at rest.
Cheers
Rik
void my_funct (void)
{
EventType user_event;
user_event.eType = (eventsEnum)userValidMsg;
EvtAddEventToQueue (&user_event);
}
