C++ pass reference to function inside same class












0















I am developing an embedded system with the mbed framework in C++.
To attach an interrupt function to the serial interrupt, I normally do this:



Serial pc(pin_u_tx, pin_u_rx,115200);

void SerialStart(void) {
...
pc.attach(&SerInt);
...
}

void SerInt(){
...
}


But now I need to do the same thing from inside a class, and it doesn't work as I can't refer to an internal function:



CTCOMM::CTCOMM()
{
pc = new Serial(ser_tx, ser_rx, ser_baud);
pc->attach(&serial_interrupt);
}

void CTCOMM::serial_interrupt() {
...
}


I tried a few ways, but none works:



pc->attach(&serial_interrupt);
gives the error
libCTcommctcomm.cpp:12:17: error: ISO C++ forbids taking the address of an unqualified or parenthesized non-static member function to form a pointer to member function. Say '&CTCOMM::serial_interrupt' [-fpermissive]

pc->attach(*serial_interrupt);
gives the error
libCTcommctcomm.cpp:12:17: error: invalid use of member function 'void CTCOMM::serial_interrupt()' (did you forget the '

pc->attach(*serial_interrupt());
gives the error
libCTcommctcomm.cpp:12:33: error: void value not ignored as it ought to be ()' ?)

pc->attach((*this)->*(serial_interrupt));
gives the error
libCTcommctcomm.cpp:12:23: error: invalid use of non-static member function 'void CTCOMM::serial_interrupt()'


and so on (I tried more suggestions found here, but got no succes).
What would be the correct way to point to that function?

  • I think you don't have a choice here, as you need a pointer to a function. The only way is to use a static method.

  • What is the signature of attach? Can you modify it to use, e.g., std::invoke to call a callback function? Then you could pass this as the first argument to call a member function, something like attach(&CTCOMM::serial_interrupt, this).

Try this.
pc->attach(callback(this, &CTCOMM::serial_interrupt));



pc->attach(this, &CTCOMM::serial_interrupt); should also work. But it is deprecated in the recent versions of mbed OS.

  • First one gives this error: libCTcommctcomm.cpp:13:56: error: cannot convert 'CTCOMM*' to 'unsigned char*' in argument passing but the second one works, only with a warning that it's deprecated! I'll try to fix the first one, but for now thanks, it works.
