# Link Management
|
|
|
|
The LinkManager creates, configures and maintains communication links. Links are created either through the user
|
|
interface or programmatically. The LinkConfiguration base classs defines the means to configure a given link
|
|
while the LinkInterface exposes the link itself.
|
|
|
|
Link specializations such as UDPLink, TCPLink, SerialLink, etc. are implemented in their own derived classes as well
|
|
as their equivalent configuration derivations such as UDPConfiguration, TCPConfiguration, SerialConfiguration, etc.
|
|
|
|
Links are primarily responsible to send and receive (MAVLink) data to and from a vehicle. When data arrives, the link will emit a
|
|
LinkInterface::bytesReceived signal and when data needs to be sent back to a vehicle, the code uses its
|
|
LinkInterface::writeBytesSafe method.
