RFID SDK for Android Programming Practices

Overview

This guide provides a details about general programming practices to work with RFID API3

SDK concurrency guidelines

Use synchronization method to cover connection, configuration, and disconnection blocks.

• Connection related APIs

synchronized (lock) { 
    readers.GetAvailableRFIDReaderList(); 
    reader.Connect(); 
    // Code related to configuration and initial setup after connection 
    ConfigureRfidReader(); 
}

• Disconnection related APIs

synchronized (lock) { 
    reader.disconnect(); 
    readers.Dispose(); 
}
