Generation of NFC NDEF messages for the NFC Type 2 Tag.

Macro Definition Documentation

#define NFC_NDEF_MSG_DEF ( NAME,
MAX_RECORD_CNT
)
Value:
static nfc_ndef_record_desc_t * NAME##_nfc_ndef_p_record_desc_array[MAX_RECORD_CNT]; \
static nfc_ndef_msg_desc_t NAME##_nfc_ndef_msg_desc = \
{ \
. pp_record = NAME##_nfc_ndef_p_record_desc_array, \
.record_count = 0, \
.max_record_count = MAX_RECORD_CNT \
}

Macro for creating and initializing an NFC NDEF message descriptor.

This macro creates and initializes a static instance of type nfc_ndef_msg_desc_t and a static array of pointers to record descriptors ( nfc_ndef_record_desc_t ) used by the message.

Use the macro NFC_NDEF_MSG to access the NDEF message descriptor instance.

Parameters
[in] NAME Name of the related instance.
[in] MAX_RECORD_CNT Maximal count of records in the message.
#define NFC_NDEF_NESTED_NDEF_MSG_RECORD_DEF ( NAME,
TNF,
P_ID,
ID_LEN,
P_TYPE,
TYPE_LEN,
P_NESTED_MESSAGE
)
Value:
static nfc_ndef_record_desc_t NAME##_ndef_record_nested_desc = \
{ \
. tnf = TNF, \
\
.id_length = ID_LEN, \
.p_id = P_ID, \
\
.type_length = TYPE_LEN, \
.p_type = P_TYPE, \
\
.payload_constructor = ( p_payload_constructor_t )( nfc_ndef_msg_encode ), \
.p_payload_descriptor = ( void *) (P_NESTED_MESSAGE) \
}

Macro for creating and initializing an NFC NDEF record descriptor with an encapsulated NDEF message.

This macro creates and initializes a static instance of type nfc_ndef_record_desc_t that contains an encapsulated NDEF message as payload. nfc_ndef_msg_encode is used as payload constructor to encode the message. The encoded message is then used as payload for the record.

Use the macro NFC_NDEF_NESTED_NDEF_MSG_RECORD to access the NDEF record descriptor instance.

Parameters
[in] NAME Name of the created record descriptor instance.
[in] TNF Type Name Format (TNF) value for the record.
[in] P_ID Pointer to the ID string.
[in] ID_LEN Length of the ID string.
[in] P_TYPE Pointer to the type string.
[in] TYPE_LEN Length of the type string.
[in] P_NESTED_MESSAGE Pointer to the message descriptor to encapsulate as the record's payload.

Function Documentation

void nfc_ndef_msg_clear ( nfc_ndef_msg_desc_t * p_msg )

Function for clearing an NDEF message.

This function clears an NDEF message descriptor, thus empties the NDEF message.

Parameters
[in,out] p_msg Pointer to the message descriptor.
ret_code_t nfc_ndef_msg_encode ( nfc_ndef_msg_desc_t const * p_ndef_msg_desc ,
uint8_t * p_msg_buffer ,
uint32_t *const p_msg_len
)

Function for encoding an NDEF message.

This function encodes an NDEF message according to the provided message descriptor.

Parameters
[in] p_ndef_msg_desc Pointer to the message descriptor.
[out] p_msg_buffer Pointer to the message destination. If NULL, function will calculate the expected size of the message.
[in,out] p_msg_len Size of the available memory for the message as input. Size of the generated message as output.
Returns
Return value from nfc_ndef_record_encode .
ret_code_t nfc_ndef_msg_record_add ( nfc_ndef_msg_desc_t *const p_msg ,
nfc_ndef_record_desc_t *const p_record
)

Function for adding a record to an NDEF message.

Parameters
[in] p_record Pointer to the record descriptor.
[in,out] p_msg Pointer to the message descriptor.
Return values
NRF_SUCCESS If the record was added successfully.
NRF_ERROR_NO_MEM If the message already contains the maximum number of records and the operation is not allowed.
