Create intel hex file

In the Word size box, type the size of the words. The default memory word size is 8 bits. Note: If a character cannot be displayed, it appears as a period. To view delimiter spaces, on the View menu, click Show Delimiter Spaces. Note: The Show Delimiter Spaces command is effective only when the radix of the memory cells is binary or hexadecimal. If it is, it increments the character counter and discards the character. Another fairly simple function. Here, we simply find the numeric value of the ASCII character and convert it to its binary equivalent.

This function is pretty simple, if you keep in mind each character is actually an integer. For example, the if-statements could be re-written as follows,. For instance, 'D' or 'd' would be 68 or The "10" is how many bytes of data blue found on this line. Note, 10 is not a decimal number, it's hexadecimal. Meaning, there should be 16 bytes of data found on this line. If there are zero data, we return false.

We are only looking for data '00'. We return false. I probably should. To properly parse the hexfile we need to know how many lines are found in the the file. We can find this information several ways, but I counted the number of line start characters ':'.

We loop until the we have read through all the lines we counted. The hex file we want to parse file , the buffer we hold the line data in, the int array which will serve to hold the address of this line of data, a variable to hold the number of bytes in this line. If the function was got data, it will return true. Otherwise, it will return false. We store this flag to make sure we got something. The k-loop goes through each line we extracted; the j-loop goes through each byte found on the respective line.

And that's it. Note, is meant to demonstrate the data is properly extracted. These lines could be moved to another function where the data may be used as needed.
