Tizen Native API  3.0

The Haptic API provides functions to control a vibrator.

Required Header

#include <device/haptic.h>

Overview

The Haptic API provides the way to control vibration functionality of a device. It allows the management of the device's vibrator parameters, such as the vibration count and level.

Functions

int device_haptic_get_count (int *device_number)
 Gets the number of vibrators.
int device_haptic_open (int device_index, haptic_device_h *device_handle)
 Opens a haptic-vibration device.
int device_haptic_close (haptic_device_h device_handle)
 Closes a haptic-vibration device.
int device_haptic_vibrate (haptic_device_h device_handle, int duration, int feedback, haptic_effect_h *effect_handle)
 Vibrates during the specified time with a constant intensity.
int device_haptic_stop (haptic_device_h device_handle, haptic_effect_h effect_handle)
 Stops all vibration effects which are being played.

Typedefs

typedef void * haptic_device_h
 The haptic device handle.
typedef void * haptic_effect_h
 The haptic effect handle.

Function Documentation

int device_haptic_close ( haptic_device_h  device_handle)
