Detailed Description

C++ Wrapper implementation of blink_array.c.

This example showcases the blink array example on AVR platforms using the C++ wrapper of the Tiny-WS2812 driver. The purpose of this example is to merely showcase the differences between the C++ wrapper and the C interface. For a more detailed description of the functionality, consult the blink array example written in the C interface.

Note

Please ensure that the WS2812_TARGET_PLATFORM_AVR macro is defined during compilation. This can either be done by specifying -DWS2812_TARGET_PLATFORM_AVR in the build flags, or by uncommenting the define WS2812_TARGET_PLATFORM_AVR directive below.
