Register (aka "bind") input/output control with data/control

To work properly, all controls need to be associate ("register") with data or command :

• An output control (LED for example) need to be register with an X-Plane input data.
• An input control (Push button for example) need to be register with an X-Plane command.

Each input control registered with command(s) will send the associated command when its state change.

Each registered output control with data will change when associated data change.

Register input control with X-Plane command

To register input control and X-Plane command together you need to use the RegisterInputControl method on the application instance :

cockpitApp->RegisterInputControl(
  new ArduinoPushButtonControl(40),
  new XPlaneSimpleCommand("sim/annunciator/test_all_annunciators")
);

void RegisterInputControl( ArduinoInputControl *ctrl, XPlaneOutputCommand *cmd1 = NULL, ...);

Arguments definition :

1. ArduinoInputControl *ctrl : Pointer to the input control to register.
2. XPlaneOutputCommand *cmd1 (default: NULL) : Pointer to output command.
3. ... : Other output command (for multiple positions control). Max number of argumen depending on the library configuration

Register output control with X-Plane data

To register output control and X-Plane data together you need to use the RegisterOutputControl method on the application instance :

cockpitApp->RegisterOutputControl(
  new ArduinoLEDControl(32),
  new XPlaneInputData(67, 0)
);

void RegisterOutputControl( ArduinoOutputControl *ctrl, XPlaneInputData *data, inputDataTransformFunction fct = NULL);

Arguments definition :

1. ArduinoOutputControl *ctrl : Pointer to the output control to register.
2. XPlaneInputData *data : Pointer to input data.
3. inputDataTransformFunction fct (default: NULL) : Transformation function (Use whole group's data to determine control state). See Transformation function for more information.
