While limitations in type inference prevent the event helper from
infering the type of generic function objects, there is nothing
technical preventing inference from the Callback class, where the
function type is encoded in the template parameters.
With adoption of the Callback class as the standard function
representation, it makes sense to support events created from
callback objects.
In the IAR ide, implicitly generated structures based on function
templates end up with missing type information. This has no effect
on using the IAR compiler standalone, but when used through the ide
the missing type information causes the ide to error.
As a workaround, moved the function attributes generated for the
Callback and Event classes into the class scope. This avoids the
syntax that confuses IAR.
Added mbed-events from https://github.com/ARMMbed/mbed-events. Changes
from upstream:
- the whole code is licensed under the Apache license. Sources and
headers were updates with this information.
- removed the porting layers for Windows and FreeRTOS and the references
to these porting layers in equeue_platform.h.
- moved the TESTS directory in mbed-events to the TESTS directory of
mbed-os.
