Protothreads on tinkercad
using arduino protothreads in tinkercad
Just copy following lines to begin of tinkercad code
#define LC_INIT(lc)
struct pt { unsigned short lc; };
#define PT_THREAD(name_args) char name_args
#define PT_BEGIN(pt) switch(pt->lc) { case 0:
#define PT_WAIT_UNTIL(pt, c) pt->lc = __LINE__; case __LINE__: \
if(!(c)) return 0
#define PT_END(pt) } pt->lc = 0; return 2
#define PT_INIT(pt) LC_INIT((pt)->lc)
Simple program with 2 different delays
#define LC_INIT(lc)
struct pt { unsigned short lc; };
#define PT_THREAD(name_args) char name_args
#define PT_BEGIN(pt) switch(pt->lc) { case 0:
#define PT_WAIT_UNTIL(pt, c) pt->lc = __LINE__; case __LINE__: \
if(!(c)) return 0
#define PT_END(pt) } pt->lc = 0; return 2
#define PT_INIT(pt) LC_INIT((pt)->lc)
struct pt pt1;
struct pt pt2;
void setup() {
Serial.begin(9600);
while(!Serial);
PT_INIT(&pt1);
PT_INIT(&pt2);
}
void loop() {
test(&pt1);
test2(&pt2);
}
unsigned long timeNow = 0;
PT_THREAD(test(struct pt *pt)) {
PT_BEGIN(pt);
timeNow = millis();
PT_WAIT_UNTIL(pt, millis() - timeNow > 5000);
Serial.println("print test1");
PT_END(pt);
}
unsigned long timeNow2 = 0;
PT_THREAD(test2(struct pt *pt)) {
PT_BEGIN(pt);
timeNow2 = millis();
PT_WAIT_UNTIL(pt, millis() - timeNow2 > 1000);
Serial.println("print test2");
PT_END(pt);
}
Thats it! Now you have pretty syntax instead of arduino millis() trick to delay tasks.
