Reading the data bitween the different headers in a buffer.

[ariseramesh8]

Hi All,

I have to read the data bitween the headers in a buffer as below mentioned

char Char_Frame[1400]="123456789 C|A|abcd efghijklm|E|";

I am receiving the data form CPU COM1, the data is copied in Char_Frame (above mentioned) i have to read the data bitween C|A| and |E|. These header come at any times within the size of that buffer. I have to read the data bitween those headers and send to the server. Could you please give me the logic to implement this.



Thanks,
Arise

I am sooooooo tempted to write PERL code to reply to a user again (especially since this one is easiest to handle in PERL).

Example:

char *delim1 = strstr(Char_Frame, "|A|");
char *delim2 = strstr(delim, "|E|");    // though careful with this guy... since the above could
                                                          // have returned NULL.

char temp[256];

memcpy(temp, delim1 + 3, (delim2 - delim1) - 6)

As opposed to one statement in PERL... but who is counting anyway.
