using gets() |

Hi guys, I am trying to read a string using gets(). The string is from a pic16f690 to a pic18f4520, which are connected with a wired communication on the uarts. The problem is that I am not receiving anything. When I test if my source microcontroller is transmitting I connect it to my PC and view the transmitted string on terminal. But when connecting the destination microcontroller to PC to view if I am receiving a string there is nothing showing. I have checked everything including my connections and its ok, please help asap!!
Thanx in advance!!
Source code.

quick comments..
1) always add 'errors' to the USE RS232(....) options. Right now the PIC's UART is halting , due to framing errors( too much data at once)
2) add a delay( delay_ms(2000) ? ) in the transmitter program main 'loop' to allow the receiver time to digest the incoming data...
3) use an ISR for the receiver's gets() to buffer incoming data.
4) if possible increase clock to 20MHz or slow the baudrate down to say 1200. |

A few more comments: Code: | char arTemp[2];
.
.
sprintf(arTemp,"%d%d",Message[20],Message[21]); | Here you have a major bug where you are overwriting memory.
%d will try to print an int8 variable in the range 0 - 255. You have this two times. And the resulting string will be terminated by a null character.
Total result will be maximum: "255255" + terminating 0 = 7 characters.
You only declared space for two characters.
Same bug is present a few more times.
What you want to do is to convert the received text to integers, for this you best can use the opposite function of sprintf: the sscanf function.
Replace: Code: | sprintf(arTemp,"%d%d",Message[20],Message[21]);
sprintf(arHumid,"%d%d",Message[23],Message[24]);
sprintf(arIntens,"%d",Message[26]);
Temp=atoi(arTemp);
Humid=atoi(arHumid);
Intens=atoi(arIntens);
| by: Code: | sscanf(&Message[20], "%d,%d,%d", &Temp, &Humid, &Intens); |
Not tested, so there might be a problem left in the above example code but it should get you going.
O yes, in the receiver code get rid of the long delay functions. Gets() will wait till a newline character is read, so no need for confusing extra delays. |
