LIN: How to use nxPropLINSched_RunMode?

[jaime_c]

Hello,

How do I use nxPropLINSched_RunMode?

When I call it with nxdbGetProperty(scheduleReference, nxPropLINSched_RunMode, (u32)sizeof(*runMode), runMode), I get error 0xBFF630C0, "A property value was out of range or incorrect. Solution: specify a correct value."

The help file says "... similar to database properties, you cannot change it after a session is created", so that's why I went this route.

What I'm trying to do is send a single frame header for the device under test to respond to, and when I try to do that with a frame out stream the entire LIN schedule is started, which I don't want.  Hopefully nxPropLINSched_RunMode is the right thing to use, but I'm open to other methods if anybody has suggestions or examples.

The error goes away when runMode is a uint32_t and the size passed into the function is sizeof(uint32_t).

I had to #include <stdint.h> in order to use uint32_t.

I don't know yet whether this will lead to a solution for the problem of sending a single frame header, but at least it cleared the error.
