Hello listers, I have a question on circular buffers. I have an application that reads data in blocks. The data data I read is in 32k blocks. Each record in the block starts with a length in the first 2 bytes. When I get to the end of the 32k block I many have a partial record that starts in the next block I read. A colleague suggested I use a circular buffer. He's not to sure what it means and neither do I. I think it means to use the same buffer but in a circular fashion. The program is in assembler and I'm trying very hard to cope with it. Do any of you have a sample that I may borrow on how to do this circular buffer? Any feedback is welcome.
