Serial.print(##, BYTE) Update Clarification needed.

Projects Programming
1

I'm trying to convert an old library to use on Arduino 1.0+, and need a bit of clarification on the code changes. I have searched for posts relating to this specific topic, but the results did not address my question.

The Changes page (Arduino Reference - Arduino Reference) states:

Serial.print(byte) now prints the digits of the number as characters; use write() to send as a single byte.

This doesn't clearly tell me what change I would make in the following for example:

_sSerial.println(26, BYTE);

This old reference causes: error: 'BYTE' was not declared in this scope.

Is it as simple as removing the BYTE? _sSerial.println(26);

Is there a piece of utility software one could use to check old code for needed updates?

use write() to send as a single byte

I don't see any ambiguity there. You need to replace the call to print() with a call to write(). Check the online reference to find what arguments these methods expect.

Ok

This worked.

_sSerial.write(byte(26));
