AREthPostMessage

Valid for: CANoe DE • CANoe4SW DE

​
Function Syntax

long AREthPostMessage( dword aepHandle, dword remoteIPv4Address, dword remotePort, dword messageHandle ); // form 1
long AREthPostMessage( dword aepHandle, IP_Endpoint remoteIPEndpoint, dword messageHandle ); // form 2

​
Description

This function is used to buffer a SOME/IP message. All buffered messages are sent after the current CAPL function is exited. If the AREthPostMessage function is called multiple times in a CAPL function, the SOME/IP messages are collected and sent together (provided they have the same source and the same destination). The call of AREthOutputMessage also triggers the sending of the buffered messages.

​
Parameters

  • aepHandle: Handle of the local Application Endpoint over which the message should be sent.
  • remoteIPv4Address: IPv4 address to which the message should be sent (Network Byte Order).
  • remotePort: UDP/TCP port number to which the message should be sent.
  • remoteIPEndpoint: Object of type IP_Endpoint that contains the address/port of the remote endpoint.
  • messageHandle: Handle of the message that was created with AREthCreateMessage, for example.

​
Return Values

  • 0: The function was successfully executed
  • >0: Error code

​
Example

on key 's'
{
  dword messageId = 0x12340004; // service ID = 0x1234, method ID = 0x0004
  dword requestId = 0; // client ID = 0, session ID = 0
  dword protocolVersion = 1;
  dword interfaceVersion = 1;
  dword messageType = 0x2; // notification message
  dword returnCode = 0; // not available
  dword aep;                    // application endpoint handle
  dword messageHandle = 0; // handle of the created SOME/IP message
  BYTE payload[5]; // the message payload
  dword count; // a simple counter

  // initialize the payload
  count = 0;
  payload[count++] = 0x11;
  payload[count++] = 0x22;
  payload[count++] = 0x33;
  payload[count++] = 0x44;
  payload[count++] = 0x55;

  // open application endpoint
  aep = AREthOpenLocalApplicationEndpoint(17, 50002);

  // create the SOME/IP message itself
  messageHandle = AREthCreateMessage(messageId,requestId,protocolVersion,interfaceVersion,messageType,returnCode);

  // set message payload
  AREthSetData(messageHandle,elcount(payload),payload);

  // post two messages
  AREthPostMessage(aep,0xFFFFFFFF,40002,messageHandle);
  AREthPostMessage(aep,0xFFFFFFFF,40001,messageHandle);

  // if CAPL function is left, the two posted messages are send
