Data Structure Documentation

◆ dwSerializerParams

struct dwSerializerParams

Data Fields

dwSensorSerializerOnDataFunc_t onData Callback executed by the serializer on new data available.

const char8_t *

parameters

Array for additional parameters provided to sensor serializer creation.

The parameters argument is an array in the form of key-value pairs separated by commas, i.e., key1=value1,key2=value2,key3=value3.

Supported 'keys' are:

'type' - Required. Specifies data-sink settings.
- If the value of 'type' is 'disk', the serializer streams data to the file specified in the 'file' key. For an example, see dwSensorSerializer_initialize().
- If the value of 'type' is 'user', the serializer uses the provided callback to stream data. When new data is available, the serializer calls the function provided in onData and puts the data in the buffer provided by userData.
'file' - See description for 'type'.
'file-buffer-size' - Size of output buffer to use for file operations.
'format' - Required. Specifies the video format. Supported values are 'h264' and 'raw'.
'bitrate' - Required if 'format' is 'h264'; optional if it is 'raw'.
'framerate' - Optional.

For a code snippet, see dwSensorSerializer_initialize().

void * userData User data to be passed to the callback.

Function Documentation

◆ dwSensorSerializer_attachTo()

DW_API_PUBLIC dwStatus dwSensorSerializer_attachTo	(	dwSensorSerializerHandle_t const	serializer,
		dwSensorSerializerHandle_t const	masterSerializer
	)

Starts and stops serialization of a sensor with a master serializer.

This method attaches the serializer to the same thread of the master serializer. The slave serializer handle is still used to call dwSensorSerializer_serializeDataAsync().

Note: To ensure you don't miss any data, activate serialization before calling dwSensorSerializer_startSensor().

Parameters

[in]	serializer	Specifies the sensor serializer handle.
[in]	masterSerializer	Specifies the sensor serializer handle that is the main thread.

Returns: DW_INVALID_HANDLE - if given handle is not valid.
DW_SUCCESS

◆ dwSensorSerializer_detachFrom()

DW_API_PUBLIC dwStatus dwSensorSerializer_detachFrom	(	dwSensorSerializerHandle_t const	serializer,
		dwSensorSerializerHandle_t const	masterSerializer
	)

This method detaches the serializer previously attached with dwSensorSerializer_attachTo().

Due to the asyncronous nature of this call, the serializer may still be attached to the serializing thread immediately following this call. dwSensorSerializer_isAttached() must be polled for status.

Note: To ensure you don't miss any data, activate serialization before calling dwSensorSerializer_startSensor().

Parameters

[in]	serializer	Specifies the sensor serializer handle.
[in]	masterSerializer	Specifies the sensor serializer handle that takes ownership of the serializer.

Returns: DW_NOT_AVAILABLE - serializer is not attached to another serializer.
DW_INVALID_HANDLE - if given handle is not valid.
DW_SUCCESS

◆ dwSensorSerializer_initialize()

DW_API_PUBLIC dwStatus dwSensorSerializer_initialize	(	dwSensorSerializerHandle_t *const	serializer,
		dwSerializerParams const *const	params,
		dwSensorHandle_t const	sensor
	)

Initializes a sensor serializer with the parameters provided.

Parameters

[out]	serializer	A pointer to the sensor serializer handle.
[in]	params	A pointer to the sensor serializer parameters.
[in]	sensor	Specifies the sensor used to create the serializer. This is necessary because each sensor has its own unique serializer. For example, camera provides a serializer that can encode the data, while GPS serializes RAW data.

Returns: DW_INVALID_HANDLE - if provided inputs are invalid
DW_INVALID_ARGUMENT
DW_SUCCESS

◆ dwSensorSerializer_isAttached()

DW_API_PUBLIC dwStatus dwSensorSerializer_isAttached	(	bool *const	isAttached,
		dwSensorSerializerHandle_t const	serializer
	)

Query method to check whether the serializer is attached to another.

See also: dwSensorSerializer_attachTo()

Parameters

[out]	isAttached	Specifies whether the sensor serializer handle is attached to another.
[in]	serializer	The sensor serializer handle.

Returns: DW_INVALID_HANDLE - if given handle is not valid.
DW_SUCCESS

◆ dwSensorSerializer_release()

DW_API_PUBLIC dwStatus dwSensorSerializer_release ( dwSensorSerializerHandle_t const serializer )

Releases a sensor serializer.

If the serializer has been attached to a master serializer via dwSensorSerializer_attachTo(), this method fails with DW_NOT_AVAILABLE. If this happens, dwSensorSerializer_detachFrom() must be called, and then this method succeeds. If the serializer is a master serializer that has other serializers attached, it releases as normal and the slave serializers are no longer be attached.

Parameters

[in] serializer The sensor serializer handle.

Returns: DW_INVALID_HANDLE - if provided inputs are invalid.
DW_INVALID_ARGUMENT
DW_NOT_AVAILABLE - if provided serializer is attached to another. DW_SUCCESS

◆ dwSensorSerializer_serializeCameraFrame()

DW_API_PUBLIC dwStatus dwSensorSerializer_serializeCameraFrame	(	dwCameraFrameHandle_t const	frame,
		dwSensorSerializerHandle_t const	serializer
	)

Pushes a camera frame to the serializer.This method must only be used if 'dwSensorSerializer_start' is not called.

This pushes the serialized image directly to the sink.

Parameters

[in]	frame	Handle to the camera frame.
[in]	serializer	Specifies the sensor serializer handle.

Returns: DW_NOT_AVAILABLE - serialization is not available at this moment,
DW_INVALID_HANDLE - if given handle is not valid.
DW_SUCCESS

◆ dwSensorSerializer_serializeCameraFrameAsync()

DW_API_PUBLIC dwStatus dwSensorSerializer_serializeCameraFrameAsync	(	dwCameraFrameHandle_t const	frame,
		dwSensorSerializerHandle_t const	serializer
	)

Pushes a camera frame to the serializer.

This method is thread-safe.

Parameters

[in]	frame	Handle to the camera frame.
[in]	serializer	Specifies the sensor serializer handle.

Returns: DW_NOT_AVAILABLE - serialization is not available at this moment,
DW_INVALID_HANDLE - if given handle is not valid.
DW_SUCCESS
