Required custom application code
Use amxasamxasamxassample.cpp as a template for writing your application. You will need to provide your own application code for:
main
OnInited
OnAlarmAck
OnAlarmClear
OnAlarmDel
OnShutdown
Thread Synchronization
Your implementation of CExternalAlarmManager will have to manage its own thread synchronization. The need for this synchronization will arise in situations where a callback method may need to access XASMgr specific structures at the same time the corresponding thread may need to access them.
The base internals have no knowledge of what you create, and cannot help out in this area. The responsibility for this synchronization rests completely with the XASMgr developer, and failure to deal with this issue by appropriate use of semaphores, mutexes or other Microsoft Win32 synchronization objects will likely result in an unreliable, unpredictable XASMgr implementation.
The sample program, as implemented, does not have need of or demonstrate these techniques. Please refer to Microsoft documentation and samples for management of multiple threads within a process potentially requiring simultaneous access to common data.
