Does Bob have an Embedded page?

Maybe this is what you are looking for: CodeProject Stuff[^]
I think the question is about where to post a question about embedded systems... :sigh:

Richard, Richard. I don't think I've seen you troll anyone before. :-D

Hi All, Do we have an Embedded page or shall I ask in C/C++ forum..? Glenn.
If it is more about the hardware part - you should go here: https://www.codeproject.com/Forums/186301/Hardware-Devices Otherwise go with the programming language you use...

Ok I deserved that.

Well in all fairness I need to ask a question on C programming to make sure I am not missing something. I was in the middle of writing a document (not related) and thought :bob: might know. So in all fairness I deserved the trolling.

Try pinging honey the codewitch directly, probability is she'd be the only one to answer anyway :D

Well, pardon me for trying. The title of the question led me to believe that Glenn is looking to embed a pictire of Bob somewhere.
He did wonder if should post in the C/C++ forum, hence my conclusion.

Nope, I know our little Green friend! I remember see stuffed Bob's somewhere... has he been licensed?

Nope, solved it myself, posted the question and face palm came up with a solution...

I fixed it, wrote the question though about it and solved it about two seconds after I posted it, tried it, Working all is good!

I do IoT stuff, which is related and similar, and am diving into more embedded here. For my part, I just ask C questions in the C section, whether it's embedded or not. What's harder is asking about the things where the hardware and firmware meet, but typically I'll just consider that a programming question, tag it as best I can, and then make sure I'm clear about what I'm doing in the description. There are enough embedded devs here I think you'll be able to cast a net and get something that way.

Anyway, MS is coming out with a G5 ARM Surface Go; and VS can generate ARM code ...

Not to worry I solved the original problem and as is the case meant something else broke, bodged that. Now being left over night to see what breaks next... The LCD driver is a pain yes, you can send it an integer or float but will display a decimal point? Some times yes some times no, and will it return I2C address? (so I can hook up a real time clock that use I2C) No is the answer. Shall I try to get the data sheet, oh company went bust and some genius bought a load of LCD's on Ebay... :rolleyes: Circuit diagrams, who needs those! Glenn (I need :beer:)

You're probably using a crappy graphics driver. I have one that may work better for you depending on the type of MCU you're using, but your best bet is to actually use sprintf(tmp,"formatspecifier",value); and then display tmp so you have total control over the formatting of it.

Graphics Driver I wish, No RTOS a while(1) or a for(;;)...

sprintf(tmp,"formatspecifier",value);
I would have to load stdio for sprintf()... no room. Think it's the I2C having a bit of noise. Will play more tomorrow. Thanks Glenn

I meant the library you're using to communicate to your I2C or SPI display. Clearly, I don't know enough about your platform. It might be simpler to just roll your own ftoa type function
