RabbitLink (EG2110)

ConsoleFinish

int ConsoleFinish(long timeout);

This function finishes receiving data from the RabbitLink serial console by blocking for 
an optional amount of time to do it. If the timeout is set to 0, the function will not receive 
any data, but will poll to determine whether there are more data to receive.

PARAMETERS

timeout

The length of time to time out, in milliseconds, and is 0 for 

ConsoleFinish()

 to determine whether there are more data to 

receive.

RETURN VALUE

0 if there are more data on the serial console and non-zero if all the data have been re-
ceived.
