Hex to decimal to character string conversion
PostPosted: Sat Nov 10, 2001 5:20 pm     Reply with quote

I need to convert a 32 bit hexidecimal integer to decimal, and then to a string of characters that represent the decimal conversion to output to the LCD routine lcd.c in the PICC examples. Anyone ever accomplish this?

Any hints appreciated.

Thanks,
Pat O'Keefe

I assume that you are talking about a string contains hex data.
In this case you can use a modified version of the gethex() function in "input.c":

byte gethex1(char digit) {
if(digit<='9')
return(digit-'0');
else
return((toupper(digit)-'A')+10);
}

int32 gethex(char *inputString) {
int32 retval;
#byte retvalL = retval
#byte retvalH = retval+1
#byte retvalHL = retval+2
#byte retvalHH = retval+3

retvalHH = gethex1(inputString[0]);
retvalHH <<=4;
retvalHH += gethex1(inputString[1]);
retvalHL = gethex1(inputString[2]);
retvalHL <<=4;
retvalHL += gethex1(inputString[3]);
retvalH = gethex1(inputString[4]);
retvalH <<=4;
retvalH += gethex1(inputString[5]);
retvalL = gethex1(inputString[6]);
retvalL <<=4;
retvalL += gethex1(inputString[7]);
return(retval);
}

main()
{
int32 lResult;
char toConvert[9];
strcpy(toConvert,"1234ABCD"); // fill out the sample string
lResult = gethex(toConvert); // convert the string
printf(LCD_PUTC,"\%lu",lResult); // write it as decimal
}

Pat,
You can use the printf() function to do this. Check the manual and the help.
