Receiving Decimal -vs- String through Uart

trytryagain

Peter,

Thanks for the help this morning.

Here's the next issue.

I'm sending a "J" out the uart send port
to my socket and I echo back the same character
except I get back a 74 (the decimal equivelant!)

Do you know why this would occur?

Any quick ideas on a routine to convert decimal
to a string (numbers and letters)?

Thanks Pete,

Not sure what you mean but I guess you mean

myUart.sendByte('J'); //send character J
int c = myUart.receiveByte(); //receive echoed J
System.out.print(c); //prints 74 to message window

Change last line to
System.out.print((char)c); //print character J to message window

Creating hexstring
char buffer[noparse]/noparse = new char[noparse][[/noparse]7];
Format.sprintf(buffer,"%04x",value); //print hexstring·with leading zeroes to buffer
Format.printf("%04x",value); //directly to message window
