Include to add

I strongly advise to leave the comment, if another person wanted to try the program, they would have a download link directly. This is valid for all the libraries you use.

Useful comment

if_not_pressed

This comment is a word that can be added anywhere and which is ignored by the compiler.

Constructor

MTcheckButton(pin,
              onSelectFunction = NO_ACTION,
              onUnselectFunction = NO_ACTION,
              rest = HIGH);

• pin (uint8_t): pin to which the button is connected
• onSelectFunction: what happens when you press the button for the first time (odd supports)
  • NO_ACTION -> nothing happens
  • myFunction → call a function "void myFunction(void) {...}"
• onUnselectFunction: what happens when you press the button for the second time (peer supports)
  • NO_ACTION -> nothing happens
  • myFunction → call a function "void myFunction(void) {...}"
• rest (boolean): pin state if the button is release
  • HIGH -> if it is wired between GND and pin (recommended). The pullup resistor is automatically added
  • LOW -> if it is wired between VCC and pin, with a pulldown resistance between pin and GND

Useful variable

bounce

bounce (word): time during which rebounds are ignored. By default 32ms, rounded up to packages of 16ms upper. f.ex. BOUNCE = 50 milli_seconds; gives 64ms maximum rebounds.

Useful functions

void select(void);
void unselect(void);
boolean getSelect(void);
virtual void onSelect(void);
virtual void onUnselect(void);

select: select the button
unselect: unselect the button
getSelect: return true if the button is selected
onSelect: overload function called when pressing the button
onUnselect: overload function called when the button is unselected

Bonus functions

void setOnSelectFunction(onSelectFunction);
void setOnSelectFunction();
void setOnUnselectFunction(onUnselectFunction);
void setOnUnselectFunction();

setOnSelectFunction: changes the function called when pressing the button
setOnSelectFunction: without parameters removes the function called when pressing the button
setOnUnselectFunction: changes the function called when the button is unselected
setOnUnselectFunction: without parameters removes the function called when the button is unselected

Examples

• turn on/off an LED
