EVT_BACNET_GETEVENTINFO (STRUCT)

TYPE EVT_BACNET_GETEVENTINFO : STRUCT

The GetEventInformation service hook.

This is the type declaration for the Get Event Information service application hook. This hook allows a BACnet application to process Event Information service requests. This hook is given parameters of the service request, and is responsible for all error checking (object/Property existence, address correctness and any other service parameter given). A pointer to the routine is registered with the BACnet library 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 NULL procedure pointer can be used to deregister the hook. Get Event Information hook must complete its service request processing by using one of the transaction completion API routines: BACnetSrvcAbortCbCompletion, BACnetSrvcErrorCbCompletion, BACnetSrvcIgnoreCbCompletion, or BACnetSrvcRejectCbCompletion. Hooks can access the local Properties maintained in the API database by using the BACnetStorePropertyInstance / BACnetRetrievePropertyInstance routines. A hook can choose not to override the default API processing of a service request by returning the value CB_STATUS_DEFAULT.

InOut:

Name	Type	Comment
pCBStatus	POINTER TO IEC_BACNET_CB_STATUS	CB-Status returned for the event. “Default” processes the standard APIs reaction, which needs no additional Callback-Signalling
phTransaction	POINTER TO BYTE	This is the Transaction State Machine (TSM) handle for the current service request. It is generated by the BACnet API and is the first parameter given to the Hook- Completion functions.
sourceAddress	POINTER TO IEC_BACNET_ADDRESS	This is the MAC address of the BACnet addressed device from which the request has been sent.
destinationAddress	POINTER TO IEC_BACNET_ADDRESS	This is the MAC address of the device constructed by the application which has received the request.
pServiceInfo	POINTER TO IEC_BACNET_EVENT_INFO_INFO	A pointer to the service information data structure. This data structure is of data type BACNET_EVENT_INFO_INFO.
