Hi,
I'm using uVision IDE V4.53.0.0 and the sprintf() function behaves strange... my piece of code:
_disable_irq(); len = sprintf((char*)myBuf,"%+2.2fV %+1.3fA",9.13788,-0.004069); _enable_irq();
This will create a string in myBuf:
"+9.14V -0.004A"
This code is called each 500ms. Suddenly after a minute or so it generates:
"-7265617330774872000000/0/0000000.000000000/0/000000000.00V +17574296777337024000/0/0000.000A"
where /0/ stands for "about 40 zero's"
Also 'len' contains a value of 66 (in stead of 15) which is the position of the first '.' in the resulting string.
As all interrupts are disabled the variables cannot be overwritten by some interrupt handler.
Does anybody know?
Thanks,
Henk
I had the same problem. I use RTX and in all tasks that use sprintf() with floats I now have specified user defined stack of 1 kByte after I checked the stack and found that sometimes it can grow over 512 bytes.
