Hi All,
I am writing an application which receives data from
the IR port (which in turn is stored in a buffer) and
then the Palm (Running OS 3.5) interprets and executes
the received commands.
The data I receive in hex and is then converted to
specific characters by a switch/case routine. Hence
the hex data 0x002D would be converted as follows:
// Part of the program
char* y;
switch (y[0])
// the rest of the values
case 0x002D:
{
value[0] = '2';
value[1] = 'D';
break;
}
// the rest of the values
default:
{
value[0] = 'X';
value[1] = 'X';
break;
}
However, I am getting the XX value every now and then,
when it should never happen as I am covering all the
values from 0x0000 to 0x00FF.
I have noted that when this happens 2 values are being
sent in 1 hex format (eg. 0x06D1) instead of one
containing 0x0006 and another containing 0x00D1.
Any ideas on how I should convert the 0x06D1 to 2 hex
digits as above, or is this a wrong approach to
transposing this data?
Any help would be greatly appreciated, as I am still a
novice at this stuff!!
Thank you for your time!
Conrad.
