I'm implementing a module using nesC for TinyOS. My modules uses interface Timer<> so I have to implement the event fired of the interface Timer, it is possible to return a value inside this implementation or an event must be always void?
The return type of the Timer.fired event is defined as void and this cannot be changed. Even if the type was non-void, the returned value would be delivered to the component that signals the event, which is some system component implementing the Timer interface.
In order to get some hints on how to solve your problem, please provide more details explaining for what purpose you want to return a value from the fired event, that is, who is expected to get and process the returned value.
