backslash message

[PauTec]

Hi

I need to read a BSON message, when I show the string in a indicator(backslash notation) it is like this:

\03position\00\13\00\00\00\10x\00@\01\00\00\10y\00\00\01\00\00

I don't know how to get the U32 values (in bold)  after x and y position, any idea?

Thanks a lot

Break those 4 bytes out of the string,  use typecast with a U32 constant wired in to convert that to a U32 value.

Than you.

After breaking in 4 bytes, I had to convert it to byte array (U8), then a typecast to u32 to get the value.

Hi Pau,

you don't need to convert to U8 array, just typecast your string (of 4 chars) to U32…

Or use Unflatten From String.  I prefer the Unflatten just in case the data decides to be Little Endian instead of Big Endian.  The Type Cast assumes Big Endian.
