Re: Sample code for 6Lo tx/rx

[Rohit Kulkarni <rmkulkar@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hi,

I had made some embarrasing blunders to get the "Protocol not
supported" error!! :-)

I finally got the at86rf212 module to tx data. Here's the code that
worked, in case someone else is also looking for an example. Also, can
any of you just glance through it and let me know if something's wrong
with it?

Thanks!
Rohit

int main()
{
        struct sockaddr_ieee802154 host_addr;
        struct sockaddr_ieee802154 dest_addr;

        /* Create a 802.15.4 socket */
        int sock = socket(AF_IEEE802154, SOCK_DGRAM, 0);
        if(sock < 0)
        {
                perror("socket");
                return -1;
        }

        /* Fill in the host_addr object */
        bzero(&host_addr, sizeof(host_addr));

        host_addr.family         = AF_IEEE802154;

        host_addr.addr.pan_id    = 0xdead;
        host_addr.addr.short_addr= 0xbeef;

                        perror("sendto");
                        close(sock);
                        return -1;

}
