[geobabu]

[FONT="Arial Narrow"]Hi ,
I am a newbie to this,I was trying to format a string using Format(I read its the equivalent to the sprintf).But some where i got an error. Please guide me to solve this error, while looking to the code. Whether I had any mistake in its method.[/FONT]

typedef struct _PARSEGPGGA
      {
	TUint satTime;
	TReal64 latitude;
	TChar latDir;
	TReal64 longitude;
	TChar longDir;
	TInt8 gpsQuality;
	TInt8 noOfSat;
	TInt8 hzonDilution;
	TReal32 altitude;
	TChar altUnit;
	TReal64 ellisoidSep;
	TChar ellipUnit;
       } PARSEGPGGA;
       		
       PARSEGPGGA ggaData;
........................
..........
_LIT(KGPGGA,"$GPGGA,%u,%f,%c,%f,%c,%d,%d,%d,%f,%c,%f,%c,,,\n");

.........
........
TBuf8<200> GpsBuff;

GpsBuff.Format(KGPGGA,ggaData.satTime,ggaData.latitude,ggaData.latDir,
             gaData.longitude,ggaData.longDir,ggaData.gpsQuality,
         ggaData.noOfSat,&ggaData.hzonDilution,&ggaData.altitude,
	ggaData.altUnit,ggaData.ellisoidSep,ggaData.ellipUnit);

.........

while compiling I got one error

1245700729296 error: no matching function for call to `TBuf8<200>::Format(const TLitC<47>&, TUint&, TReal64&, TChar&, TReal64&, TChar&, TInt8&, TInt8&, TInt8*, TReal32*, TChar&, TReal64&, TChar&)'

Please help me to solve this.
Thanks in advance

Hi,

_LIT(KGPGGA,"$GPGGA,%u,%f,%c,%f,%c,%d,%d,%d,%f,%c,%f,%c,,,\n");

The above line should be like
_LIT8(KGPGGA,"$GPGGA,%u,%f,%c,%f,%c,%d,%d,%d,%f,%c,%f,%c,,,\n");
