Serial.bufferUntil()

Projects Programming

Hi,

On the Arduino reference page here, serialEvent() - Arduino Reference it mentions using Serial.bufferUntil() so that SerialEvent() only triggers after a certain character has been received.

When I use it in my program I get the error " 'class HardwareSerial' has no member named 'bufferUntil' ".

Is this a mistake in the online reference or am I using it wrongly?

Thanks,
Dave.

I believe it is a mistake in the reference docs. I presume it was a planned feature that didn't make the release code.

Dave beat me to this post. :slight_smile:

Is there someone who can remove that reference from that page so us newbies won't be confused?

Here's how I came up with a way to "wait for certain characters" -
