Trying to write data out to a serial port. This is on Pi but that shouldn’t matter. It is related to this other topic (Is Pi GPIO Support Dead?) but that part has been settled.
Let’s say I have some Uint8 data that is in an array and some of the values are zero. Many of them are actually. I want to write this out to my SerialConnection. Xojo can only write out strings to a SerialConnection? Can strings contain zero’s? Not the character zero… the value zero like chr(0)?
I have
Var data(14) as UInt8
Where some of the values are zero and other things. This gives a type mismatch:
for i as integer = 0 to 14
SerialConnection1.Write(data(i))
next i
And byte by byte was how the code I’m porting from did it. Seems janky to covert it to a string and send it that way. And can a string even have 0’s in the middle of it? Isn’t that a string termination?
Sorry a bit of a noob question but here we are.
