getbyte()

[netchose]

i would like to get a byte from block , convert the value to decimal and convert it in ascii

i don’t understand why it doesn’t work

thanks

[code:1v7u5qa0]function Hex2Dec(sValue)

return tonumber(sValue, 16).."";

end

function assignValues(midiMessage)

programData = midiMessage:getLuaData():getRange(81,18) –ok in the console

v=programData:getByte(2)
v1=Hex2Dec(v)
console (string.char(v1))

end[/code:1v7u5qa0]

i have no idea why are you trying to convert anything to decimal ? it’s all the same numbers the conversion only makes sense if you want to display the number as DEC or HEX, otherwise it’s the same value (the same memory).

[code:logyijrq]
>>> v=64
>>> console (string.format ("ascii=%c", v))
ascii=@
[/code:logyijrq]

this works and won’t cause problems,however the value needs to represent an ascii character that is printable otherwise you won’t see anything (here is the ascii table http://www.asciitable.com/)

the byte i get has a value of 79 in hexa
in dec = 121
console (string.char(121)) – y the result i would like

it is why i lould like to convert this 79 hexa value

something which could help : how to diplay v in the console

[code:3plijlm4]function assignValues(midiMessage)

lastSavedProgram = midiMessage:getLuaData()
programData = midiMessage:getLuaData():getRange(81,18)
unpackedData = utils.unpackDsiData(programData)

v=programData:getByte(1)

console (v) — nok
console (v:toString()) –nok
console (v:toHexString(1)) –nok

end[/code:3plijlm4]

console(string.format("v = %d", v))
