[Tinyos-help] Converting Binary Data to Printf Format

[Michael Schippling]

I don't know what format the printf lib sends things in,
and I thought it supplied a host end receiver of some sort.
Perhaps you can find that and see how they go about it, or
work back from the source for the re-Mote end.

You can look at any MIG generated Java message class for pointers
on converting the message stream to java types, although that
will probably be over-the-top complicated to understand.

My posted code contains some hand built message conversion code,
e.g., RoboStatMsg.java in
     http://www.etantdonnes.com/Motes/robocode.tar.gz

In any case you will have to know what the structure of the data
in the file is in order to parse it.

How is it possible to decode data stored in binary format (as opposed to what would be received directly from the motes)?
