const uint8_t *FreeRTOS_CLIGetParameter( const int8_t *pcCommandString,
uint8_t ucWantedParameter,
uint8_t *pucParameterStringLength )
FreeRTOS+CLI is an extensible framework that allows the application writer to define and register their own command line input commands. Functions that implement the behaviour of a user defined command have to use a particular interface, which is described on a separate page.
Some commands take parameters. For example, a file system "copy" command needs the name of the source file and the name of the destination file. This page describes a helper function called FreeRTOS_CLIGetParameter() that is provided by FreeRTOS+CLI to make input parameter parsing easy.
FreeRTOS_CLIGetParameter() takes the full command string and the position of the requested parameter as inputs, and produces a pointer to the start of the requested parameter and the length of the parameter string in bytes as outputs.
Parameters:
| pcCommandString | A pointer to the entire command string, as entered by the user. |
| ucWantedParameter | The position of the parameter being requested within the command string. For example, if the input command was "copy [source_file] [destination_file]", set ucWantedParameter to 1 to request the name and length of the source_file parameter. Set ucWantedParameter to 2 to request the name and length of the destination_file parameter. |
| pucParameterStringLength | The string length of the parameter being requested is returned in *pucParameterStringLength. For example, if the parameter text was "filename.txt", then *pucParameterStringLength will be set to 12, as there are 12 characters in the string. |
Returns:
A pointer to the start of the parameter being requested is returned. For example, if the full command string is "copy file1.txt file2.txt", and ucWantedParameter is 2, FreeRTOS_CLIGetParameter() will return a pointer to the 'f' of "file2.txt".
