NVM I found out what the problem was. My application(it's an infinite loop) was taking longer to process than 1 sec sometimes an therefore the delay wouldn't work in this case because I declared it...

Ok I understand that by trying to create a delay using timeGetTime I'll get an approximate delay, not an exact one. But if anything it should be AT LEAST the amount of time I tell it to delay. My...

Is there a function I can use that will find the variation of a determined word with any combination uppercase/ lowercase letters?

thanks nonoob! I used your code and it works perfectly.

I have an if statement with the following condition:


if ((strstr(to_units, param_units))&&(param_units!=NULL))
{

okay I used the union from quzah's code and it works!
Thanks to everyone :D

Thanks nonoob and Bayint.


Not really, I need to convert a lot more than just 8 bytes, I am going to have a large amount of values stored into this array. The values stored are going to be in...

Can you please be more specific?
The values are stored in a char array. Are you suggesting I transfer the 8 bytes from the char array into the union and then just call the value for double? Isn't...

well for some reason when I store the binary numbers in my char array and do a "quickwatch" of the array index I get -27 which, according to the Visual Studio, corresponds to char å.

Hi,
I have 8 char stored in a char array.

char char_buff[65536];

char_buff[x]=68;
char_buff[x+1]=59;
...
char_buff[x+7]=-56;

merci beaucoup MK27 & tabstop

tabstop, your code doesn't account for the fact that I have a variable number of words. What should I do if I have 6 words instead of 2?
Also, the tab space does not happen between words, only...

Here is the code, paramacquire is just a BOOL that triggers reading the file.



FILE* fp3;

fp3 = fopen ("offsets_list.txt","r");
char buffer2[300];

I am trying to read some info from a file. The text in the file in saved in the following format:

[String]TAB[Hex Number]TAB[Integer]TAB[Float]

Thanks Salem! I figured it would be better to acquire the PARAMETER name instead of the Mnemonic. The code looks a lot cleaner now:



while ((find_ptr = strstr(buff_ptr,mnemonic)))
{...

Salem,
are you suggesting I go back to my original code?
and what should I use to advance past Mnemonic= to the next " ? memmove in conjuction with a strchr?

Thanks for the help hk_mp5kpdw.

After some struggle I managed to fix it. Here's the corrected code:



while(fgets(buffer,MAX_LEN_LINE+2,fp1))
{
buff_ptr = buffer;...
