Ev3Wrap::Blockable

Important Information: This class is meant to be inherited by other classes to allow them to have a “blocked” state. Use setBlocking and getBlocking to access the “blocked state”. When child classes are not in the “blocked state”, after any timed method calls, the thread will not be blocked

public methods

---

blockableReturn setBlocking(bool willBlock)

setter

Description: returns the derived child class and sets the blocking state.

---

bool getBlocking()

getter

Description: returns the current blocking state.

---

protected methods

---

void blockMilliseconds(float milliseconds, std::function<void()> cleanupFunction = []{})

Affected by Blockable

Description: blocks the thread for an amount of seconds, then calls the cleanup function. This method will NOT do anything if the blocking state is false

---

void blockUntilStateReached(std::function<bool()> state, float loopSpeed = 5, std::function<void()> cleanupFunction = []{})

Affected by Blockable

Description: blocks the thread in a while loop, and executes the state function every loopSpeed milliseconds. Once the state function returns true, the loop breaks and cleanupFunction is called. This method will NOT do anything if the blocking state is false

---

void blockMillisecondsAndFire(std::function<void()> function, float milliseconds, std::function<void()> cleanupFunction = []{})

Affected by Blockable

Description: blocks the thread in a while loop, and executes the function CONSTANTLY (not delays). after milliseconds, break out of the while loop and call cleanupFunction.

Warning - do not put hardware intensive / damaging commands into this method. It DOES NOT wait for a cooldown, and will execute function as fast as it can. You might fry / damage a motor (untested).

This method will NOT do anything if the blocking state is false
