Using RSC services

You have the option of using the already registered RSC services of the SDK via theServiceManager. TheServiceManager acts as the RSC API and is used to request services. 

Application

RSC services are available for the following areas:

• Axioline services: Read and write access to data and information from Axioline devices
• PROFINET services: Read and write access to data and information from PROFINET devices
• Device interface services: Access to information and properties of the Operating System and controller hardware 
• GDS services: Read and write access to the data of the GDS

Implementation

• Use the#include command in the header file to include the ServiceManager class and the desired service interface (e.g., IDeviceStatusService). 
  Header file exampleClick to see an header file example

  #pragma once
  #include "Arp/System/Core/Arp.h"
  #include "Arp/System/Acf/ComponentBase.hpp"
  #include "Arp/System/Acf/IApplication.hpp"
  #include "Arp/System/Acf/IControllerComponent.hpp"
  #include "Arp/System/Commons/Logging.h"
  #include "Arp/System/Rsc/ServiceManager.hpp"
  #include "Arp/System/Commons/Threading/WorkerThread.hpp"
  #include "Arp/Device/Interface/Services/IDeviceStatusService.hpp"

• Initialize a pointer to the object matching the desired service by calling the GetService() method of theServiceManager.
• Pass on the name of the corresponding interface as the template argument.
• Place this call in theSubscribeServices() method of your component.
