Receive data from a NAO

When ALInfrared receive a data from an other NAO, it raise an event containing the data.

Every information of the event are also keep in memory.

The event array and the separated data are describe in the following table:

Event / Data	Type	ALMemory	Description
Event	string	"InfraRedIpAdressReceived"	IP address
Data	string	"Device/SubDeviceList/IR/LIRC/Data/uInt8/Byte/Sensor/Value/"	IP address
Event	int	"InfraRedOneByteReceived"	8 bits value
Data	int	"Device/SubDeviceList/IR/LIRC/Data/uInt8/Byte/Sensor/Value/"	8 bits value
Event	array	"InfraRedFourBytesReceived"	array containing the 4 octets
Data	int	"Device/SubDeviceList/IR/LIRC/Data/uInt32/Byte1/Sensor/Value/"	1st octet
Data	int	"Device/SubDeviceList/IR/LIRC/Data/uInt32/Byte2/Sensor/Value/"	2nd octet
Data	int	"Device/SubDeviceList/IR/LIRC/Data/uInt32/Byte3/Sensor/Value/"	3rd octet
Data	int	"Device/SubDeviceList/IR/LIRC/Data/uInt32/Byte4/Sensor/Value/"	4th octet

Python example to receive an IP address:

        from naoqi import *
        import time
        
        # create python module
        class myModule(ALModule):
        """python class myModule test auto documentation"""
        
        def pythondatachanged(self, strVarName, value, strMessage):
        """callback when data change"""
        print "----------------------------------------------------------"
        print "IP address = ", value, " ", strMessage
        print "----------------------------------------------------------"
        
        broker = ALBroker("pythonBroker","127.0.0.1",9999,"127.0.0.1",9559)
        
        # call method
        try:
        lirc=ALProxy("ALInfrared")   
      
        eventName = "InfraRedIpAdressReceived"          
        pythonModule = myModule("pythonModule")
        prox = ALProxy("ALMemory")
        prox.subscribeToEvent(eventName,"pythonModule", "pythondatachanged")
        except Exception,e:
        print "error"
        print e
        exit(1)
        
        time.sleep(10)
        
        exit(0)
