Dan,
Thanks for the comment!
iew.u.data.length is __u16
min_t is defined as:
#define min_t(type, x, y) ({ \
type __min1 = (x); \
type __min2 = (y); \
__min1 < __min2 ? __min1: __min2; })
If I understand you correctly I should use this:
iwe.u.data.length = min_t(u32, pnetwork->network.Ssid.SsidLength, 32);
the result of min_t is u32, but iwe.u.data.lenght is __u16
Is that correct?
