WICED Feather Client Code

Note that at present .begin in the WICED Feather library returns a bool, not a status byte (as in the WiFi example

above), so the example has been modified slightly to detect connection status via

the .connected (https://adafru.it/lFn) function that is also part of the Client (https://adafru.it/lFj) interface.

3. Change WiFiUDP and WiFiTCP Class Types

If your example uses classes like WiFiUDP and WiFiTCP, simple replace the class names with AdafruitUDP or

AdafruitTCP.

Existing WiFiUDP Class

Updated AdafruitUDP Class

The UDP and TCP classes should generally be compatible with each other, so simply changing the class type and

using the same field name should solve 90% of your problems.

The Adafruit WICED Feather API is still a work in progress and we're trying to make the transition to the

WICED as easy as possible, but there may be some implementation differences between platforms. Hopefully

these will be addressed over time.

// Attempt to connect to Wifi network

while (!Feather.connected()) {

Serial.print("Attempting to connect to SSID: ");

Serial.println(ssid);

// Connect to any network.

// The Feather stack will try to determine the network

// security type automatically

bool results = Feather.begin(ssid, pass);

// Optional: wait a bit before checking for a connection

delay(3000);

}
