Greetings. Is there any way to accomplish the following using 'unsigned char'
instead of 'unsigned int'?
unsigned int addr[6];
(void) sscanf("01:23:45:67:89:AB", "02X:02X:02X:02X:02X:02X", &addr[5],
&addr[4], &addr[3], &addr[2], &addr[1], &addr[0]);
Since the address represented by the string is really 6 bytes I was hoping to
convert directly. However, with my current format string sscanf expects the
target locations to be unsigned int's. Using unsigned char's for the array
expectedly results in a memory error. I could do it manually but if it can be
accomplished with an existing function I'd rather use that.
I see a solution here www.codeproject.com/KB/cpp/MACAddressUtility.aspx[1]
which suggests to me sscanf will not suit my purposes.
Thanks. Jerry.
