There's a number of strange and inexplicable things here, but probably the problem is that you have not set "pointer" to point to anything. Try something like:
uint8_t* pointer; uint8_t buffer[8]; pointer = buffer; call interface.function(pointer); or even just: uint8_t buffer[8]; call interface.function(buffer); Also, unless you insist on using memcpy(), you could make your fill loop like this: for(i=0; i<8; i++) { pointer[i] = i+1; } MS Felipe Cruz Martínez wrote: > Hi all, > i want to fill the first 8 bytes of a uint8_t* pointer with the values 0x01 > 0x02 0x03 0x04 0x05 0x06 0x07 0x08, and send it by radio (micaz motes): > This is the code of my app (App.nc): > <---------------------------------------------------- > / uint8_t* pointer; > / > / call interface.function(pointer);/ > -----------------------------------------------------> > In other module/file, i have got the implementation of that function: > <------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ > > / command void interface.function(uint8_t* pointer) / > / {/ > / uint8_t x = 1;/ > // > / memset(pointer, 0, 8*sizeof(uint8_t)); //For security, fill the > first 8 bytes of the pointer with ‘0x00’ > / > / for(i=0; i<8; i++) {/ > // > /memcpy(pointer+i, &x, sizeof(uint8_t));/ > /printf("pointer[%d]: 0x%02X \n", i, pointer[i]);/ > /x++;/ > /}/ > / }/ > ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------> > > /Output: > / > /pointer[*1614823456ð*]: *0x00 */ > /pointer[1]: *0x00 */ > /pointer[2]: 0x03 / > /pointer[3]: 0x04 / > /pointer[4]: 0x05 / > /pointer[5]: 0x06 / > /pointer[6]: 0x07 / > /pointer[7]: 0x08 / > // > As you can see, first two bytes of the pointer are wrong. > First byte of pointer got a wrong index: ‘1614823456ð’, and his value > should be pointer[0] = 0x01 > Second byte got a correct index, but a value of ‘0x00’, when it should be > pointer[1] = 0x02 > What i’m doing wrong?
