CNTInit

Syntax


#include <revolution/cnt.h>

void CNTInit(void);

Arguments

None.

Return Values

None.

Description

Initializes the driver. With NAND applications, when using the NAND API to save data or for other purposes, always call NANDInit first.

In SDK version 2.1 patch 1 and later versions NANDInit is called automatically by OSInit.
Note:

This function sometimes puts the current thread to sleep, so it cannot be called from callback functions. Refer to Interrupts and Callback Functions.
If the CNTInit function is called from a different thread during the processing of the NANDRead[Async] or NANDWrite[Async] functions, the processing of these other functions may be delayed or even fail. (This is also true for CNTRead or any other function that acts internally to generate read/write access to Wii console NAND memory.) For more information about the occurrence conditions, symptoms, and workarounds, see Notes Regarding Read/Writes to Wii Console NAND Memory.
