[−][src]Trait bl602_hal::prelude::_embedded_hal_timer_CountDown

pub trait _embedded_hal_timer_CountDown {
    type Error;
    type Time;
    fn try_start<T>(&mut self, count: T) -> Result<(), Self::Error>
    where
        T: Into<Self::Time>;

    fn try_wait(&mut self) -> Result<(), Error<Self::Error>>;
}

A count down timer

Contract

Note that the implementer doesn't necessarily have to be a downcounting timer; it could also be an upcounting timer as long as the above contract is upheld.

Examples

You can use this timer to create delays

extern crate embedded_hal as hal;
#[macro_use(block)]
extern crate nb;

use hal::prelude::*;

fn main() {
    let mut led: Led = {
        // ..
    };
    let mut timer: Timer6 = {
        // ..
    };

    Led.on();
    timer.try_start(1.s()).unwrap();
    block!(timer.try_wait()); // blocks for 1 second
    Led.off();
}

Associated Types

type Error

An enumeration of CountDown errors.

For infallible implementations, will be Infallible

type Time

The unit of time used by this timer

Required methods

fn try_start<T>(&mut self, count: T) -> Result<(), Self::Error> where
    T: Into<Self::Time>, 

Starts a new count down

fn try_wait(&mut self) -> Result<(), Error<Self::Error>>

Non-blockingly "waits" until the count down finishes

Contract

  • If Self: Periodic, the timer will start a new count down right after the last one finishes.
  • Otherwise the behavior of calling try_wait after the last call returned Ok is UNSPECIFIED. Implementers are suggested to panic on this scenario to signal a programmer error.
