如何将混合类型数组转换为char数组并返回?

我必须通过SPI将混合类型数组(union)从一个uController(源)传输到另一个uController(target),因此我必须在传输之前将整个传输块放入uint8_t数组中,然后在其中重建将uC返回到混合类型联合数组。

我尝试了以下方法,但是没有用。 (简体)

int i;
int len=4;

union dummy{
    float f32;
    uint32_t u32;
    uint8_t u8[4];
};

union dummy inst1[len]; //First instance on source uC
union dummy inst2[len]; //Second instance on target uC


inst1[0].u8[0]=73;
inst1[1].f32=17.5;
//... and so on

printf("Source: %d, %f\n",inst1[0].u8[0],inst1[1].f32);

//Prepare SPI uint8_t array
uint8_t spi_arr[4*len];

*spi_arr=*inst1; //Wrong. What to do here?

//SPI uint8_t array arrived on target. Convert it back to union type

*inst2=*spi_arr; //Wrong. What to do here?

printf("Target: %d, %f\n",inst2[0].u8[0],inst2[1].f32);

它给了我错误:

error: incompatible types when assigning to type 'uint8_t {aka unsigned char}' from type 'union dummy'

我想要的只是将数组的内容原样地来回复制。该怎么做?

此示例程序展示了如何将数据复制到char数组并使用memcpy重新复制:

#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <string.h>

const int len = 4;

union dummy{
    float f32;
    uint32_t u32;
    uint8_t u8[4];
};

int main(void) {
    union dummy inst1[len]; //First instance on source uC
    union dummy inst2[len]; //Second instance on target uC
    uint8_t spi_arr[sizeof(inst1)];

    for (int index = 0; index < len; index++) {
        for (int inner_index = 0; inner_index < 4; inner_index++) {
            inst1[index].u8[inner_index] = '1' + inner_index;
        }
    }

    memcpy(spi_arr, inst1, sizeof(inst1));
    memcpy(inst2, spi_arr, sizeof(spi_arr));

    for (int index = 0; index < len; index++) {
        for (int inner_index = 0; inner_index < 4; inner_index++) {
            printf("%c", inst2[index].u8[inner_index]);
        }
        printf("\n");
    }

    return 0;
}

输出

1234

这是一个示例程序,显示了如何使用指针以两种不同的类型访问数据:

#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <string.h>

const int len = 4;

union dummy{
    float f32;
    uint32_t u32;
    uint8_t u8[4];
};

int main(void) {
    union dummy inst1[len]; //First instance on source uC
    union dummy *inst2; //Second instance on target uC
    uint8_t *spi_arr;

    for (int index = 0; index < len; index++) {
        for (int inner_index = 0; inner_index < 4; inner_index++) {
            inst1[index].u8[inner_index] = '1' + inner_index;
        }
    }

    spi_arr = (uint8_t *) inst1;

    for (int index = 0; index < sizeof(inst1); index++) {
        printf("%c", spi_arr[index]);
    }
    printf("\n\n");

    inst2 = (union dummy *) spi_arr;

    for (int index = 0; index < len; index++) {
        for (int inner_index = 0; inner_index < 4; inner_index++) {
            printf("%c", inst2[0].u8[inner_index]);
        }
        printf("\n");
    }

    return 0;
}

输出

1234123412341234

如果您更改行:

*spi_arr=*inst1; //Wrong. What to do here?

阅读:

*spi_arr=inst1[0].u8[0];

它编译。我不确定这是否是您想要的。数据类型应该匹配以进行指针分配,这就是错误消息告诉您的内容。在此示例中,*spi_arrinst1[0].u8[0]均为 unit8_t 类型。
