Buffer serial port

[kevinvig7]

Hi I wanna make a buffer that can store a 6 hexadecimal digit by serial port, and then use that to make a sentence, thanks.

in your examples CCS folder
look at EX_SISR.c

it is what you seek

Hi kevinvig7,

In another thread, I referred you to exactly the code you'd need to buffer incoming serial data, and then print the data for review. Did you ever check that out??

Here is that thread: http://www.ccsinfo.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=54516&highlight=

If so, I don't understand why you are back here now asking essentially the same question? If you didn't understand the code that was provided, you should ask about it rather than opening yet another new thread on basically the same topic!

The code in the thread I pointed to is for a 'linear buffer', which is probably sufficient for most projects. If you are doing something like reading a GPS that is continuously spitting out a lot of data, a 'circular buffer', such as the one referenced by asmboy, might be more appropriate. You, however, must take some initiative here!
