ANT Forum

Hello, I wrote an app in delphi some time ago, and I now want to implement speed and cadence and hrm display for this app. In the process of conversion from c++ to delphi I found these:

static volatile ANT_RESPONSE_FUNC pResponseFunc = NULL;
static volatile ANT_EVENT_RESPONSE_FUNC pEventResponseFunc = NULL;

volatile doesn't exists in delphi, so I like to ask you if is it absolutely necessary that type of storage for these functions. I'm afraid so, so I'm too afraid I have to pass all the app to C++. Thank you for any help.

Hi,

Which project are you attempting to port to Delphi? Is it the ANT PC Libraries or the Speed and Cadence Display Simulator?

Cheers      

Hi, I'm trying the simulator, I thought it would be easier. But if for the libraries the volatile thing would be easier, I would change. Thanks, cheers.

(Really thanks, I think I got it).      

Hi,

It would likely be easier if you read through the DEMO_DLL in the ANT Library Package instead, as the Simulator interfaces through managed libraries before reaching the C based ANT library.

Reading the profiles directly on how to decode SPD, CAD, SPD&CAD;, and HRM and implementing them in Delphi rather then porting the simulator directly would also likely be easier, I would only use the simulator as a rough guide on how to decode the data packets.

Cheers      

Thank you, I'll take a look to demo_dll, cheers.
