Store "XML" in buffer, invalid characters??

[David]

Hi,

I need to store some "XML" data in a buffer, to send over serial.

I have some trouble with storing this variable, due to some symbols.

char N_Pos0[150] = "<txid id="@#@#@" no="1"><command><c9 s="1" m="0" c="1" p1="0" p2="0" p3="0" p4="0" cs="1|0|1|0|0|0|0|0">0</c9></command></txid>";

Any idea how to store this data correctly?

Regards, David

Let's post that as code, so we can see it properly:

char N_Pos0[150] = "<txid id="@#@#@" no="1"><command><c9 s="1" m="0" c="1" p1="0" p2="0" p3="0" p4="0" cs="1|0|1|0|0|0|0|0">0</c9></command></txid>";

Note that the double-quote character is the C string delimeter - so, if you want quotes within your string, you will need to escape them ...

Hi, se above.

Yes, I need double-quotes within the string, do you have a suggestion to how the string would be with your modifications?

Hi,

 

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Escape_sequences_in_C

 

You need to append \", like this:

const char foo[] = "bar=\"hello\"";

 

Which will print:

bar="hello"

 

Kind regards,
