The Pioneer PSOC6 board contains 3 user programmable LEDs: an RGB LED, an orange LED and a red LED. The source code runs 2 threads: ...en-USTelligent Community 12https://community.element14.com/challenges-projects/design-challenges/connected-cloud-challenge-with-cypress-and-aws-iot/b/blog/posts/learning-mbed-blog-6Wed, 20 May 2020 09:44:10 GMT93d5dcb4-84c2-446f-b2cb-99731719e767:5e2d86e4-72f4-46d9-89c8-30bf230588d1Jan Cumps1<p>I&#39;m checking why you have to static cast here. I&#39;ve been porting the MBED Digitalxxx classes to another platform - requiring static casting points to something sometimes is odd....(it&#39;s equivalent to typecasting in C, but in C++ often a sign that a class is used differently than intended).</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>oo musings:</p><p>As an oo fanboy, I would put the 5 LEDs in a container (an array would work) and have an iterator walk over them instead of the for...
