My product sends ALIVE packets to the tablet every 200mS.
On the app side, my bluetooth service has a 500ms timer that sets ALIVE_RECEIVED flag to false before exiting the Tick function. On entry to the Tick function, if ALIVE_RECEIVED is still FALSE, the app takes the neccessary steps to handle the situation (the situation being, my product has turned off).
At the beginning of AStream_NewData, I set ALIVE_RECEIVED to true.
This has all worked fine so far, but I do see very occasionally, the unit is found to be disconnected when it's still on. Running in debug, I can see that everything is working correctly, and the only plausible explanation is that the AStream_NewData event has been paused by something and not occur synchronously with the arrival of an ALIVE packet. I do not have any blocking modals and so on, so thats not the problem.
Which gets me to my question: Is there any other event I can somehow set up, that is fired in a more realtime manner than AStream_NewData, when bluetooth data arrives? I don't need access to the data, all I need to know is that there is still bluetooth activity going on.
Thanks.
