My goal is to have the user changing the device configuration ( i.e. the way it's functioning ) from a web browser.
Since the DCT is the device's persistent storage, it's suppose to work. when applying the following changes to the WICED SDK 3.1.2, it work ( and I wish Broadcom would incorporate similar solution into the next SDK.. ) :
wiced_result_t wiced_dct_read_lock( void** info_ptr, wiced_bool_t ptr_is_writable, dct_section_t section, uint32_t offset, uint32_t size )
{
if ( ptr_is_writable == WICED_TRUE )
{
// allocate extra 12 bytes.
*info_ptr = (void*)malloc_named( "DCT", size + 12 );
if ( *info_ptr == NULL )
{
return WICED_ERROR;
}
*((uint32_t*)*info_ptr) = section;
*(((uint32_t*)*info_ptr)+1) = offset;
*(((uint32_t*)*info_ptr)+2) = size;
*info_ptr = ((char*)*info_ptr)+12;
wiced_dct_read_with_copy( *info_ptr, section, offset, size );
}
else
{
*info_ptr = (char*)wiced_dct_get_current_address( section ) + offset;
}
return WICED_SUCCESS;
}
wiced_result_t wiced_dct_read_unlock( void* info_ptr, wiced_bool_t ptr_is_writable )
{
if ( ptr_is_writable == WICED_TRUE )
{
dct_section_t section = *(((uint32_t*)info_ptr)-3);
uint32_t offset = *(((uint32_t*)info_ptr)-2);
uint32_t size = *(((uint32_t*)info_ptr)-1);
wiced_dct_update(info_ptr, section, offset, size );
free( ((char*)info_ptr)-12 );
}
return WICED_SUCCESS;
}
note that I've eliminated the EXTERNAL_DCT since it's irrelevant for my application.
