adamdunkels	2559e27414	API change to the announcement module: an annoucement can now be registered without a value. Such announcements are never transmitted to neighbors, until the announcement's value is set.	2010-03-25 08:49:56 +00:00
adamdunkels	137e02baac	Added a bump method that tells the announcement module that a value has changed sufficiently much for it to be pushed out quicker	2010-03-19 13:16:11 +00:00
adamdunkels	a4d9d6651b	Added the option to specify the old value to observers so that they can determine if the announcement should be sent out quicklier than otherwise	2010-02-23 18:32:44 +00:00
adamdunkels	56218aba3b	Made rimeaddr_t pointers const where they should be.	2009-11-08 19:40:16 +00:00

adamdunkels	be846d8c90	A new experimental network primitive called an 'announcement'. An ... announcement is an (ID, value) tuple that is disseminated to local area neighbors. An application or protocol can explicitly listen to announcements from neighbors. When an announcement is heard, a callback is invoked. Announcements can be used for a variety of network mechanisms such as neighbor discovery, node-level service discovery, or routing metric dissemination. Application programs and protocols register announcements with the announcement module. An announcement back-end, implemented by the system, takes care of sending out announcements over the radio, as well as collecting announcements heard from neighbors.	2009-02-05 19:32:01 +00:00
