MATLAB Callback Error


Jon

Recommended Posts

Hi,

I'm trying to run "matlab_example_callback.m" for BrickletVoltageCurrent.

 

When the example code "set(vc, 'PowerReachedCallback', @(h, e) cb_power_reached(e));" is executed MATLAB reports the following error:

 

java.lang.NullPointerException

at com.mathworks.jmi.bean.MatlabBeanInterface.addCallback(MatlabBeanInterface.java:484)

at com.mathworks.jmi.bean.MatlabCallbackInterface.addCallback(MatlabCallbackInterface.java:130)

 

If I type set(vc) there is no callback class listed to register...

                     

Class: [1x1 java.lang.Class]

Configuration: [1x1 com.tinkerforge.BrickletVoltageCurrent$Configuration]

Current: 0

CurrentCallbackPeriod: 1000

CurrentCallbackThreshold: [1x1 com.tinkerforge.BrickletVoltageCurrent$CurrentCallbackThreshold]

DebouncePeriod: 100

Identity: [1x1 com.tinkerforge.Device$Identity]

Power: 0

PowerCallbackPeriod: 0

PowerCallbackThreshold: [1x1 com.tinkerforge.BrickletVoltageCurrent$PowerCallbackThreshold]

Voltage: 0

VoltageCallbackPeriod: 0

VoltageCallbackThreshold: [1x1 com.tinkerforge.BrickletVoltageCurrent$VoltageCallbackThreshold]

 

The example callback won't register. Does anyone have any ideas what could be wrong here?

 

Many thanks

I tested with this

 

function matlab_example_threshold()
    import com.tinkerforge.IPConnection;
    import com.tinkerforge.BrickletVoltageCurrent;

    ipcon = IPConnection(); % Create IP connection
    vc = BrickletVoltageCurrent('XYZ', ipcon); % Create device object
    set(vc)
end

 

and got this output

Did you install the bindings according to the documentation?

 

http://www.tinkerforge.com/en/doc/Software/API_Bindings_MATLAB.html#matlab

 

Also make sure to use the Tinkerforge.jar from the MATLAB bindings zip file. The Tinkerforge.jar from the Java bindings will probably not work.

 

What MATLAB version are you using?

Hi photron

Thank you for responding. Something strange is happening for me.

 

I am using MATLAB 2015b and the Tinkerforge.jar file from the \MATLAB bindings directory (v2_0_5 file size: 980,064 bytes). In the MATLAB classpath.txt file I have this

 

# DO NOT MODIFY THIS FILE.  IT IS AN AUTOGENERATED FILE.
$<Lots of MATLAB Jar files added to the path>
$matlabroot/Tinkerforge.jar

 

If I execute your simple code I get this:

 

import com.tinkerforge.IPConnection;
import com.tinkerforge.BrickletVoltageCurrent;

ipcon = IPConnection(); % Create IP connection
vc = BrickletVoltageCurrent(UID, ipcon); % Create device object

>> set(vc)
ans = 
    CurrentCallbackPeriod: {}
           DebouncePeriod: {}
      PowerCallbackPeriod: {}
      ResponseExpectedAll: {}
    VoltageCallbackPeriod: {}

>> ipcon.connect(HOST, PORT); % Can't use get without executing this
>> get(vc)
                  APIVersion: [3x1 int16]
                       Class: [1x1 java.lang.Class]
               Configuration: [1x1 com.tinkerforge.BrickletVoltageCurrent$Configuration]
                     Current: 0
       CurrentCallbackPeriod: 10
    CurrentCallbackThreshold: [1x1 com.tinkerforge.BrickletVoltageCurrent$CurrentCallbackThreshold]
              DebouncePeriod: 100
                    Identity: [1x1 com.tinkerforge.Device$Identity]
                       Power: 0
         PowerCallbackPeriod: 0
      PowerCallbackThreshold: [1x1 com.tinkerforge.BrickletVoltageCurrent$PowerCallbackThreshold]
                     Voltage: 0
       VoltageCallbackPeriod: 0
    VoltageCallbackThreshold: [1x1 com.tinkerforge.BrickletVoltageCurrent$VoltageCallbackThreshold]

Please can I ask what version of MATLAB you are using?

I tested with R2012a.

 

I think I found the problem. There's a change about how callbacks are handled in R2014a, see

 

http://undocumentedmatlab.com/blog/matlab-callbacks-for-java-events-in-r2014a

 

According to that blog post you need to replace

 

vc = BrickletVoltageCurrent(UID, ipcon);

 

with

 

vc = handle(BrickletVoltageCurrent(UID, ipcon), 'CallbackProperties');

 

to expose callbacks again. Could you test that?

Fantastic Photron - problem solved,

Tinkerforge Callbacks are now established in MATLAB R2015b - Don't you just love undocumented features.

For completeness the following updated code now produces this output.

import com.tinkerforge.IPConnection;
import com.tinkerforge.BrickletVoltageCurrent;

ipcon = IPConnection(); % Create IP connection
vc = handle(BrickletVoltageCurrent(UID, ipcon),'CallbackProperties');

>> set(vc)
ans = 
     CurrentCallbackPeriod: {}
            DebouncePeriod: {}
       PowerCallbackPeriod: {}
       ResponseExpectedAll: {}
     VoltageCallbackPeriod: {}
      PowerReachedCallback: {}
    VoltageReachedCallback: {}
           VoltageCallback: {}
    CurrentReachedCallback: {}
           CurrentCallback: {}
             PowerCallback: {}

 

My understanding is the listeners only report when a change is detected which means I can't check if the callback is actually executing until tomorrow when I can add a test load.
