How to Write flash , Read flash and delete flash from one location only.

Question

Hello All,

I am working on the Nrf52810 board with sdk 14.2.

I have implemented the read ,write , delete feature in my code.

Now it is creating new entry for repeating/creating new record read write function each .

I wanted to read / write / delete in same location or (restrict in one location)

Here is my mainc file please check below.

Please suggest how to read/write in same location without creating new record.

here is my debug output please check

Hi Rohit, 
 You still have problems with your input data, so you need to get this correct before going forward. Perhaps you should revise how pointers and arrays work in C, for instance looking here ? 
 I suggest you do something like this instead: 
 Skip temp data, since m_deadbeef never changes. And do something like this: 
 record.file_id = FILE_ID_FDS_TEST;
record.key = REC_KEY_FDS_TEST;
record.data.p_data = m_deadbeef; // Note that there is no & here, since m_deadbeef if a pointer to the first element of the array (this is how arrays work in C)
record.data.length_words = sizeof(m_deadbeef)/sizeof(uint32_t); // Note that we divide on the sizeof(uint32_t), since the FDS word size is 4 bytes
 
ret_code_t ret = fds_record_write(&record_desc, &record);
APP_ERROR_CHECK(ret); 
 If the source data is not constant in the future, then you need to temporarily store the data as you attempted. But then you need to do it right, for instance doing something like this (note that here I put all code together, so it will not be exactly like this in a practical application): 
 uint8_t temp_data[sizeof(m_deadbeef)]; // Note that there is no * when declaring the array!
memcpy(temp_data, m_deadbeef, sizeof(temp_data));

record.file_id = FILE_ID_FDS_TEST;
record.key = REC_KEY_FDS_TEST;
record.data.p_data = temp_data; // Note that there is no & here, since temp_data if a pointer to the first element of the array (this is how arrays work in C)
record.data.length_words = sizeof(temp_data)/sizeof(uint32_t); // Note that we divide on the sizeof(uint32_t), since the FDS word size is 4 bytes
 
ret_code_t ret = fds_record_write(&record_desc, &record);
APP_ERROR_CHECK(ret);
