Parameters

buff	Text output buffer.
len	Maximum length of the output buffer. If the actual length of the data is greater, an error will be returned.

Returns

error status. 0 = ERR_SUCCESS, otherwise error code. See the enum eErr for details.

EXTERN_C CCAUXDLL_API eErr CCAUXDLL_CALLING_CONV CrossControl::About_getUserEepromData	(	ABOUTHANDLE	,
		char_t *	buff,
		uint16_t	length
	)

Get User Eeprom data. The user eeprom holds 4096 bytes of data which are fully accessible. Data is always read from position 0. V700: 1024 bytes available

buff	data buffer.
length	data buffer length or number of data bytes to read.

Returns

error status. 0 = ERR_SUCCESS, otherwise error code.

		bool *	bootComplete
	)

Get the status of the OS boot process. In Linux, drivers may be delay-loaded at start-up. If the application is started early in the boot-process, this function can be used to determine when full functionality can be obtained from the API/drivers.

error status. 0 = ERR_SUCCESS, otherwise error code. See the enum eErr for details.

Example Usage:

  bool isBootComplete;
  err = CrossControl::About_hasOsBooted(pAbout, &isBootComplete);
  if (CrossControl::ERR_SUCCESS == err)
