copy unsigned char array into QByteArray ..... problems

[o6a6r9v1p]

@jsulm
hi,
can we do it the way it is done C?
or is it different in C++?

I am not good in C++.

Thanks.

@o6a6r9v1p

const qint64 bytesWritten = serPort->write(reinterpret_cast<char*>(wbuf)));

@o6a6r9v1p
take a look here

http://www.cplusplus.com/doc/tutorial/typecasting/

you can use c-style casting, but you're encuraged to use the cpp variants

@jsulm
hi,
Thanks for the word. this line was used, think i am wrong some where.

const qint64 bytesWritten = serPort->write(const QByteArray ((unsigned char*) wbuf));

where did i miss?

Thanks,

@o6a6r9v1p Why do you create a byte array? @J-Hilk already said here that this is not needed.
What is wrong in your code: remove the const before QByteArray. You should learn more about C++.

@jsulm
hi,
sending data bytes in certain order.
we use a structure of bytes.

@o6a6r9v1p Again: there is NO need for QByteArray.
This line should work as well, did you try?

const qint64 bytesWritten = serPort->write(reinterpret_cast<char*>(wbuf)));

[o6a6r9v1p]

@jsulm
removed const as told.
still i am getting:

invaild conversion from unsigned char* to const char* error.

i know c programming, but not good in c++,

thanks,

@o6a6r9v1p You should read more carefully - I already showed you what you need to do.

1. Why do you want to use QByteArray? It is not needed. QByteArray does not care about any order - it is the order you give it.
2. You need to cast unsigned char* to char*. See my previous posts to see how, I don't want to write it again and again.

@jsulm
hi,
i under stood that line in wrongly. in the place of <char *>, i have used const QByteArray.
Now i got the point after going trough the type casting page, adviced by you.

Now it is working.
Thanks to all of you.
