Function Documentation

bufferStatus_t bufferAvailable	(	buffer_t *	buffer,
		uint16_t *	available
	)

return, how many elements are stored and available in the buffer

Parameters

buffer	pointer to a buffer_t instance
available	pointer to a variable where the number of available elements should be stored

Returns: an element of bufferStatus_t

Return values

bufferOK	it worked as expected
bufferNotInitialized	the buffer wasn't initialized

bufferStatus_t bufferFill	(	buffer_t *	buffer,
		bufferDatatype	data,
		uint8_t	silent
	)

fill the whole buffer with given dummy data.

Parameters

buffer	pointer buffer_t instance
data	data to fill the buffer with
silent	if this parameter is 1, the buffer will be filled with data, but the write pointer stays at its current position (usefull, if you take the mean but the buffer is not full yet. You can just prefill it, the mean will be taken with the prefilled values)

Returns: an element of bufferStatus_t

Return values

bufferOK	it worked as expected
bufferNotInitialized	the buffer wasn't initialized

bufferStatus_t bufferInit	(	buffer_t *	buffer,
		uint16_t	bufferSize
	)

init a new buffer This function inits a new buffer_t.

Parameters

buffer	Pointer (&) to a buffer_t object.
bufferSize	desired size of the buffer, the total buffer size (e.g. length-of-datatype * bufferSize) may not exceed 2^16 bytes

Returns: an element of bufferStatus_t

Return values

bufferMemoryAllocationFailed	The memory allocation with malloc failed. Make sure, you have enough memory available
bufferOK	It seems, like everything went well

bufferStatus_t bufferInitStatic	(	buffer_t *	buffer,
		uint16_t	bufferSize,
		bufferDatatype *	bufferArray
	)

init a new buffer This function inits a new buffer_t, but doesn't allocate the memory dynamically
You've to provide an array of the datatype and the required length when calling this function.
This function might be useful, if you want to save the overhead of the malloc() function

Parameters

buffer	Pointer (&) to a buffer_t object.
bufferSize	desired size of the buffer, the total buffer size (e.g. length-of-datatype * bufferSize) may not exceed 2^16 bytes
bufferArray	pointer to a array of the type bufferDatatype, which is bufferSize elements long

Returns: an element of bufferStatus_t

Return values

bufferOK It seems, like everything went well

uint8_t bufferIsEmpty ( buffer_t * buffer )

Checks, wheter the buffer is empty.

Parameters

buffer Pointer to a buffer_t instance

Return values

1	buffer is empty
0	buffer is not empty

uint8_t bufferIsFull ( buffer_t * buffer )

Checks, wheter the buffer is full.

Parameters

buffer Pointer to a buffer_t instance

Return values

1	buffer is full
0	buffer is not full

bufferStatus_t bufferMean	(	buffer_t *	buffer,
		bufferDatatype *	meanOut
	)

take the average of the whole buffer

Parameters

buffer	pointer to a buffer_t instance
meanOut	pointer to a variable, where the mean will be stored

Returns: a element of bufferStatus_t

Return values

bufferOK	it worked as expected, the mean is stored at the given variable
bufferNotInitialized	the buffer is not initialized

Bug:: The sum of the buffer is taken. Take precautions, that this variable won't overflow

bufferStatus_t bufferMeanRMS	(	buffer_t *	buffer,
		bufferDatatype *	meanOut
	)

take the root mean square of the whole buffer

Parameters

buffer	pointer to a buffer_t instance
meanOut	pointer to a variable, where the mean will be stored

Returns: a element of bufferStatus_t

Return values

bufferOK	it worked as expected, the mean is stored at the given variable
bufferNotInitialized	the buffer is not initialized

Bug:: The sum of squared buffer elements is taken. Take precautions, that this variable won't overflow

bufferStatus_t bufferPeek	(	buffer_t *	buffer,
		bufferDatatype *	data
	)

have a look at the next element in the buffer, but do not increase the read pointer

Parameters

buffer	pointer to a buffer_t instance
data	pointer to a variable where data should be stored

Returns: a element of bufferStatus_t

Return values

bufferOK	it worked as expected
bufferNotInitialized	the bufferInit() method hasn't been called or failed before
bufferEmpty	the buffer is empty an no more data can be read

bufferStatus_t bufferRead	(	buffer_t *	buffer,
		bufferDatatype *	data
	)

read data from the beginning of the buffer

Parameters

buffer	pointer to a buffer_t instance
data	pointer to a variable where data should be stored

Returns: a element of bufferStatus_t

Return values

bufferOK	it worked as expected
bufferNotInitialized	the bufferInit() method hasn't been called or failed before
bufferEmpty	the buffer is empty an no more data can be read

bufferStatus_t bufferReadFromIndex	(	buffer_t *	buffer,
		uint16_t	index,
		bufferDatatype *	data
	)

read data from a specifig index of the buffer WARNING: Take care when using this function, it is against the main concept of a ringbuffer

Parameters

buffer	Pointer to a buffer_t instance
index	The index, where data should be written. It can be in range 0 to length - 1
data	Pointer to a variable where the read data should be written to.

Returns: an element of bufferStatus_t

Return values

bufferOK	It went successfull
bufferNotInitialized	The buffer is not initialized. You have to call bufferInit before (or the init failed before)
bufferError	The desired data index is out of range

bufferStatus_t bufferWrite	(	buffer_t *	buffer,
		bufferDatatype	data
	)

add data to the end of the ringbuffer

Parameters

buffer	pointer to a buffer_t instance
data	data which should be written

Returns: a element of bufferStatus_t

Return values

bufferOK	it worked as expected
bufferNotInitialized	the bufferInit() method hasn't been called or failed before
bufferFull	the buffer is full an no more data can be written

bufferStatus_t bufferWriteOverwrite	(	buffer_t *	buffer,
		bufferDatatype	data
