[Interest] Parsing data from serialport

[Zielinski, Mariusz UTC CCS]

Hi,

If I understand documentation correctly, it suggests to connect QIODevice::readyRead() signal to slot that will contain:

if(QIODevice::canReadLine)
{
QByteArray oneLine=QIODevice::ReadLine();
// process data here
}

Hello,

I'm trying to implement a serial connection with QIODevice (SerialPort). I would like to parse line by line (each line consists of multiple columns of data) and for this I found canReadLine().
But as I understand I have to use startTransaction, because otherwise the buffer will not be used. I'm I correct?

bool QIODevice::canReadLine() const

{

    Q_D(const QIODevice);

    return d->buffer.indexOf('\n', d->buffer.size(),

                             d->isSequential() ? d->transactionPos : Q_INT64_C(0)) >= 0;

}

So to read a full line, I have to open a QSerialPort and then start a Transaction. Then I have to wait a little bit (till data is in the buffer) and then I can use canReadLine. Am I correct? Is there a better way instead to wait a little bit? Or is it the wrong way to go?



Best regards,

Martin
