TuningFork_getFidelityParameters

TuningFork_ErrorCode TuningFork_getFidelityParameters(
  const TuningFork_CProtobufSerialization *defaultParams,
  TuningFork_CProtobufSerialization *params,
  uint32_t timeout_ms
)

A blocking call to get fidelity parameters from the server.

You do not need to call this if you pass in a fidelity_params_callback as part of the settings to TuningFork_init. Note that once fidelity parameters are downloaded, any timing information is recorded as being associated with those parameters. If you subsequently call GetFidelityParameters and a new set of parameters is downloaded, any data that is already collected will be submitted to the backend. Ownership of 'params' is transferred to the caller, so they must call params->dealloc when they are done with it. The parameter request is sent to: ${url_base}+'applications/'+package_name+'/apks/'+version_number+':generateTuningParameters'.

Details
Parameters
defaultParams
these will be assumed current if no parameters could be downloaded.
params
timeout_ms
time to wait before returning from this call when no connection can be made. If zero or negative, the value in Settings.initial_request_timeout_ms is used.
Returns
TUNINGFORK_ERROR_TIMEOUT if there was a timeout before params could be downloaded.
Returns
TUNINGFORK_ERROR_OK on success.

TuningFork_init

TuningFork_ErrorCode TuningFork_init(
  const TuningFork_Settings *settings,

Returns
TUNINGFORK_ERROR_OK if successful,
Returns
TUNINGFORK_ERROR_NO_SETTINGS if no settings could be found,
