InnerException:
how can i know where my error is... it looks like a string error but which one ?
oh nevermind it says it "\comm.cs:line 132"
... always when i ask the question just by writing it up I find the answer ... :(
oh well i asked the question midas well do something in it ... this is the function at error
Code:
public string loadNextRXPacket()
{
// get index of next '11'
int i = -1;// rxBuffer.IndexOf(Dw.RXHeader);
// if we found the packet and the buffer contains a whole packet
if (i != -1)// && rxBuffer.Length >= (i+Dw.RX_PacketSZ))
{ // stuff from that index till rxPacketSZ into current packet
currentRXPacket = rxBuffer.Substring(i, Dw.RX_PacketSZ);
rxBuffer = rxBuffer.Remove(i, Dw.RX_PacketSZ); // erase packet from buffer
}else { return null; }
return currentRXPacket;
//return null;
}
edit :::
well i found that a lot of my problems were coming from the code not being rebuilt correctly. I was clicking the play button thinking the code was being rebuilt and it was not. When I clicked build->rebuild my changes took effect. I was really confused because the function that was causing the error was not even being called anywhere.
