Getting SPI temperature data from outside of class

问题

I'm trying to write a class "Temperature" that handles communicating with my RaspberryPi through SPI to read some temperature data. The goal is to be able to call a GetTemp() method from outside of my Temperature class so that I can use temperature data whenever I need it in the rest of my program.

My code is set up like this:

public sealed class StartupTask : IBackgroundTask
{
    private BackgroundTaskDeferral deferral;

    public void Run(IBackgroundTaskInstance taskInstance)
    {
        deferral = taskInstance.GetDeferral();

        Temperature t = new Temperature();

        //Want to be able to make a call like this throughout the rest of my program to get the temperature data whenever its needed
        var data = t.GetTemp();
    }
}

Temperature class:

class Temperature
{
    private ThreadPoolTimer timer;
    private SpiDevice thermocouple;
    public byte[] temperatureData = null;

    public Temperature()
    {
        InitSpi();
        timer = ThreadPoolTimer.CreatePeriodicTimer(GetThermocoupleData, TimeSpan.FromMilliseconds(1000));

    }
    //Should return the most recent reading of data to outside of this class
    public byte[] GetTemp()
    {
        return temperatureData;
    }

    private async void InitSpi()
    {
        try
        {
            var settings = new SpiConnectionSettings(0);
            settings.ClockFrequency = 5000000;
            settings.Mode = SpiMode.Mode0;

            string spiAqs = SpiDevice.GetDeviceSelector("SPI0");
            var deviceInfo = await DeviceInformation.FindAllAsync(spiAqs);
            thermocouple = await SpiDevice.FromIdAsync(deviceInfo[0].Id, settings);
        }

        catch (Exception ex)
        {
            throw new Exception("SPI Initialization Failed", ex);
        }
    }

    private void GetThermocoupleData(ThreadPoolTimer timer)
    {
        byte[] readBuffer = new byte[4];
        thermocouple.Read(readBuffer);
        temperatureData = readBuffer;
    }
}

When I add a breakpoint in GetThermocoupleData(), I can see that I am getting the correct sensor data values. However when I call t.GetTemp() from outside of my class, my value is always null.

Can anyone help me figure out what I'm doing wrong? Thank you.

GetThermocouplerData() must have been called atleast once to return data. In your code sample it will not have been run until 1 second after instantiation. Just add a call to GetThermocoupleData(null) in InitSpi in the last line of your try block so that it starts off already having at least 1 call.
