MAVLINK_HELPER uint16_t mavlink_finalize_message	(	mavlink_message_t *	msg,
		uint8_t	system_id,
		uint8_t	component_id,
		uint8_t	length
	)

Finalize a MAVLink message with MAVLINK_COMM_0 as default channel.

Definition at line 89 of file include_v0.9/mavlink_helpers.h.

MAVLINK_HELPER uint16_t mavlink_finalize_message_chan	(	mavlink_message_t *	msg,
		uint8_t	system_id,
		uint8_t	component_id,
		uint8_t	chan,
		uint8_t	length
	)

Finalize a MAVLink message with channel assignment.

This function calculates the checksum and sets length and aircraft id correctly. It assumes that the message id and the payload are already correctly set. This function can also be used if the message header has already been written before (as in mavlink_msg_xxx_pack instead of mavlink_msg_xxx_pack_headerless), it just introduces little extra overhead.

Parameters:

msg	Message to finalize
system_id	Id of the sending (this) system, 1-127
length	Message length

MAVLINK_HELPER uint16_t mavlink_msg_to_send_buffer	(	uint8_t *	buffer,
		const mavlink_message_t *	msg
	)

Pack a message to send it over a serial byte stream.

Definition at line 157 of file include_v0.9/mavlink_helpers.h.

MAVLINK_HELPER uint8_t mavlink_parse_char	(	uint8_t	chan,
		uint8_t	c,
		mavlink_message_t *	r_message,
		mavlink_status_t *	r_mavlink_status
	)

This is a convenience function which handles the complete MAVLink parsing. the function will parse one byte at a time and return the complete packet once it could be successfully decoded. Checksum and other failures will be silently ignored.

Parameters:

chan	ID of the current channel. This allows to parse different channels with this function. a channel is not a physical message channel like a serial port, but a logic partition of the communication streams in this case. COMM_NB is the limit for the number of channels on MCU (e.g. ARM7), while COMM_NB_HIGH is the limit for the number of channels in Linux/Windows
c	The char to barse
returnMsg	NULL if no message could be decoded, the message data else

Returns:: 0 if no message could be decoded, 1 else

A typical use scenario of this function call is:

 #include <inttypes.h> // For fixed-width uint8_t type

 mavlink_message_t msg;
 int chan = 0;


 while(serial.bytesAvailable > 0)
 {
   uint8_t byte = serial.getNextByte();
   if (mavlink_parse_char(chan, byte, &msg))
     {
     printf("Received message with ID %d, sequence: %d from component %d of system %d", msg.msgid, msg.seq, msg.compid, msg.sysid);
     }
 }

< The currently decoded message

< The current decode status

MAVLINK_HELPER void mavlink_update_checksum	(	mavlink_message_t *	msg,
		uint8_t	c
	)

Definition at line 178 of file include_v0.9/mavlink_helpers.h.

MAVLINK_HELPER uint8_t put_bitfield_n_by_index	(	int32_t	b,
		uint8_t	bits,
		uint8_t	packet_index,
		uint8_t	bit_index,
		uint8_t *	r_bit_index,
		uint8_t *	buffer
	)

Put a bitfield of length 1-32 bit into the buffer.

Parameters:

b	the value to add, will be encoded in the bitfield
bits	number of bits to use to encode b, e.g. 1 for boolean, 2, 3, etc.
packet_index	the position in the packet (the index of the first byte to use)
bit_index	the position in the byte (the index of the first bit to use)
buffer	packet buffer to write into

Returns:: new position of the last used byte in the buffer
