EVT_BACNET_CONFCOVNOTIFICATION (STRUCT)

TYPE EVT_BACNET_CONFCOVNOTIFICATION : STRUCT

Receives confirmed Change Of Value requests

This is the type declaration for the Confirmed COV Notification service application hook. This hook allows a BACnet application to process Confirmed COV service since there are no default processing of this service in the present API version. This hook is given all of the parameters of a service request, and is responsible for all error checking ( Device/Object existence, address correctness and so forth). A pointer to the routine is registered with the Client by BACnetSetHook API routine. A hook can be registered by the registering API routine at any time. One hook procedure is registered per service. If a hook is registered more than once for the same service, the new hook procedure replaces the old one. A 0 procedure pointer can be used to deregister the hook. A Confirmed COV Notification hook must complete its service request processing by using one of the transaction completion API routines: BACnetSrvcResponseCbCompletion, BACnetSrvcAbortCbCompletion, BACnetSrvcErrorCbCompletion or BACnetSrvcRejectCbCompletion.*)
