Every iviLink Profile inherits one Profile API and implements its functionality. If you don't have Profile API for you Profile, you need to create it.

How to create Profile API:

  1. Create C++ class that inherits CProfile class (from CProfile.hpp)

  2. Declare its functionality by adding pure virtual functions

Example of simple class with Profile API: ISeatProfileAPI.hpp

If you have Profile API to implement do the next steps:

  1. Create C++ class that inherits Profile API and IChannelSupervisorTubeObserver class (from IChannelSupervisorObserver.hpp)

  2. Implement functionality of Profile API.

  3. Add network interaction code:

  • add network messages from current side to another by using functionality of Channel Supervisor Tube (from ChannelSupervisorTube.hpp)

  • implement pure virtual functions of IChannelSupervisorObserver (to react on actions from another side of system)

Detailed example of Profile implementations are here: src/samples/linux/Profiles/ClimateProfileImpl
