Detailed Description

iio.Context class: Contains the representation of an IIO context.

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

iio.Context.Context ( string  uri)
inline

Initializes a new instance of the iio.Context class, using the provided URI. For compatibility with existing code, providing an IP address or a hostname here will automatically create a network context.

Parameters
uriURI to use for the IIO context creation
Returns
an instance of the iio.Context class
Exceptions
System.ExceptionThe IIO context could not be created.
iio.Context.Context ( )
inline

Initializes a new instance of the iio.Context class, using the local or the network backend of the IIO library.

This function will create a network context if the IIOD_REMOTE environment variable is set to the hostname where the IIOD server runs. If set to an empty string, the server will be discovered using ZeroConf. If the environment variable is not set, a local context will be created instead.

Exceptions
System.ExceptionThe IIO context could not be created.

Member Function Documentation

Context iio.Context.clone ( )
inline

Clone this instance.

void iio.Context.Dispose ( )
inline

Releases all resource used by the iio.Context object.

Call Dispose when you are finished using the iio.Context. The Dispose method leaves the iio.Context in an unusable state. After calling Dispose, you must release all references to the iio.Context so the garbage collector can reclaim the memory that the iio.Context was occupying.

Device iio.Context.find_device ( string  device)
inline

Finds the device with the given name from the current context.

Parameters
deviceThe name of the device.
Exceptions
System.ExceptionThere is no device with the given name.
Device iio.Context.get_device ( string  name)
inline

Get the iio.Device object of the specified name.

Parameters
nameName or ID of the device to look for
Exceptions
System.ExceptionThe IIO device with the specified name or ID could not be found in the current context.
void iio.Context.set_timeout ( uint  timeout)
inline

Set a timeout for I/O operations.

Parameters
timeoutThe timeout value, in milliseconds
Exceptions
System.ExceptionThe timeout could not be applied.
