GCLIB_DLL_EXPORTED GReturn GCALL GInfo(GCon g, GCStringOut info, GSize info_len)
Uses GUtility() and G_UTIL_INFO to provide a useful connection string.
Definition: gclibo.c:49
GCLIB_DLL_EXPORTED GReturn GCALL GCmd(GCon g, GCStringIn command)
Wrapper around GCommand for use when the return value is not desired.
Definition: gclibo.c:237
GCLIB_DLL_EXPORTED GReturn GCALL GOpen(GCStringIn address, GCon *g)
Open a connection to a Galil Controller.
int GReturn
Every function returns a value of type GReturn. See gclib_errors.h for possible values.
Definition: gclib.h:93
#define G_SMALL_BUFFER
Most reads from Galil are small. This value will easily hold most, e.g. TH, TZ, etc.
Definition: gclib.h:89
void * GCon
Connection handle. Unique for each connection in process. Assigned a non-zero value in GOpen().
Definition: gclib.h:94
void e(GReturn rc)
A trivial, C++ style return code check used in Galil's examples and demos.
Definition: examples.h:33
GReturn ip_assigner(char *serial_num, int address)
Assigns controller an IP Adress given a serial number and a 1 byte address.
Definition: ip_assigner.cpp:26
tokens string_split(const string &str, const string &token)
Splits a string into a vector based on a token.
