how pstorage_register insure same address between startup?

[julian]

it register a handler, what about restart and run pstorage_register again, how it insure everytime we get the same address for our content in the flash? before pstorage_register, we use flash_io, which we know the address, so no problem to access the right place in flash, so pstorage_register ensures the correct address by order of calling pstorage_register?

and PSTORAGE_MAX_APPLICATIONS, seems not for application, but defines how many pages we use? is there a max number of pages we can use? how to find out this number for nrf51822-xxaa-s110? as I recalled, 16k for softdevice, and size of app(how to find the size of app in the device?) anything else will take space?

Thanks!

Hi Dan,

@I am not clear on why I needed to do that, honestly. The bond manager is the only other application it seems that uses the PStorage services

The bond manager registers twice with the pstorage module - once for storing the Bonding Information and another time for storing the System attributes. You will notice two calls to the pstorage_register in ble_bondmngr.c and a comment above it. But yes, this should be described better to avoid confusion. I will take this up internally so that this gets documented more clearly in the upcoming release.

Cheers, Balaji

Balaji,

Thank you for the detailed reply, that of course explains it perfectly.
