substring error

Ik heb al gezocht met google op de zelfde error maar kom er niet uit wat ze bedoelen met deze foutmelding (zie screenshot).
Een duwtje in de juiste richting zou fijn zijn.

Een gedeelte van de code staat hier onder.

   double volt = Result * vref /16/6912000; //data coming from this line is .....      "0.123456" for example
   long microvolt = (volt*1000000); // microvolts are easier to break down in blocks of 3 then floats so we multiply with 1000000.
   //long microvolt = (volt*1000); // microvolts are easier to break down in blocks of 3 then floats so we multiply with 1000000.
   //split the microvolt value in blocks of three digits so it can be parsed to the serial output by Serial.print as integer value as it is lower as 1024.
   //sample value of volt  =  "123456" so we brake it down in 123 and 456 <> volt.
   //In our case it will never go below 0 or above 999999
   float (load.substring (0,2)); // we need the three most right side digits
   float (load.substring (3,5)); //we need the three most left side digits
   //at the PC side VB6 should detect the "letter - comma - value" and parse it in a textbox
   // how things work with Processing I have no idea yet :-(.
   
   float load = ((loadB - loadA)/(valueB - valueA)) * ( microvolt - valueA) + loadA; //the final value of the real load on the sensor

   Serial.print ("A,");
   Serial.println (volt,6); //raw sensor value in volts
   Serial.print ("B,");
   Serial.println (microvoltB);
   Serial.print ("C,");
   Serial.println (extradata1);
   Serial.print ("D,");
   Serial.println (extradata2);
   Serial.print ("E,");
   Serial.println (microvolt); //raw sensor value in microvolts
   Serial.print ("F,");
   Serial.println (load,0); // value in grams

volgens mij heb je geen substring fout maar heb je een fout gemaakt in de samenstelling van verschillende commando's in een.
wat je schrijft is

float (load.substring (0,2));

en een beetje later

float load = ((loadB - loadA)/(valueB - valueA)) * ( microvolt - valueA) + loadA; //the final value of the real load on the sensor

je gebruikt load dus voor je het definieerd als een float.
float heeft geen methode substring dus dat slaat (volgens de c++ compiler) nergens op.

de code die je wilt is

float float1 = (load.substring (0,2));

Maar je kan een string niet zomaar omvormen in een float. ook dat slaat nergens op volgens de c++ compiler.

In het kort: volgens mij zijn je problemen veroorzaakt door iets anders dan substring.

Hallo Jantje,

Sorry het attachment hoorde niet bij dit probleem. :frowning:
heb ik verwijderd.
Maar het gaat wel om die twee regels met substring.
Als ik ze uit zet compiled hij goed.
request of member 'substring' in 'load', which is in non class type float is de fout melding.

Nu maar de hele code er bij geplakt.
Load wordt wel gedeclareerd als float.
Maar zoals je zei kan ik dus geen string als float declareren.
Hoe werk jo zo iets heen?
Ik moet de float breken en in stukken hakken om het over te fluiten naar het VB gedeelte wat al klaar is.

Als jij de float wil omzetten de text versie in bytes wil doorsturen kun je toch gewoon dtostrf gebruiken

char str[10];
float var = 0.123456;
dtostrf(var, 8, 6, str);

En je hebt een string met de tekst "0.123456" en een '\0' er achteraan.
Die string kan je daarna gewoon kopiëren in stukken met strncpy(source, destination, number of bytes)

Thanks, Nico

Een en ander veranderd aan zowel Arduino maar ook aan PC kant.
Alles werkt nu.
