Using __WFI instead of sd_app_evt_wait in main loop of mesh example

[sommmen]

Hello,

The mesh lightswitch on/off example only calls 'sd_app_evt_wait' in the main loop.

I'd like to use '__WFI' instead. (Im combining some code with mesh, and i'd like to keep that code unchanged)

I did some testing and the example remains functional. I have not tested power usage.

Is this okay or are there some complications I am missing?

    while (true)
    {
        //(void) sd_app_evt_wait(); 
        __WFI(); //@TEST
    }

It is not recommended to do that.  The SD has its own housekeeping to do. sd_app_evt_wait is very reliable.  If you do your approach you will just leave a bunch of stuff on that should be asleep.

Just treat sd_app_evt_wait as you would a WFI and you will get the same result. Just remember when you come out of a power manage you have to request HFCLK if you require it.  Otherwise you will be on HFRC.
