3. Configurations and Wiring Configuration : A Component whose implementation is component wiring Compose module into larger abstractions Wiring : Connecting two components such that one module to be able to call another

4. Configuration Implementation implementation { component-list, connection-list} The component–list lists the components thar are used to build this configuration The connection-list specifies how these components are wired to each other and to the configuration’s specification

5. An Example

6. Basic Rules for Declaring Use component keyword to tell the names of the component it is wiring Any number of components names can follow components, order doesn’t matter Can have multiple component statements Three operators : -- >, < -- and = Direct wiring ( -- > or < --) always goes to a user to a provider. = operator exports interfaces

10. Auto Wiring Initialization

11. C and P Implementation C implementation : Externally usable abstraction P implementation : an internal implementation

13. The ‘as’ Keyword and other namespace tricks The as keyword allows to rename an interface in a signature The as keyword can also be used within configurations

15. Pass Through Wiring Pass through wiring is when a configuration wires two interfaces in its signature together. It must wire a uses to a provides, and it does so with = operator.

16. Multiple Wiring, Fan-in, and Fan-out

17. Combine Function NesC provides mechanism of combine functions to specify return value A fan-ot always involves calling N functions with identical signatures, the caller’s return value is the result of applying the combine function to the return values of all of the callees When NesC compiles application, it autogenerates a fan-out function which applies the combine function

18. An Example

19. Parameterized Wiring

21. Another way of defining parameter

22. Defaults A default handler is an implementation of a function that’s used if no implementation is wired in. If a component wires to the interface, then the implementation is used. Otherwise, the (or signal) goes to the default handler.
