Bestand naar C, C++ variable converten.

Om een bestand als variable in C of C++ te gebruiken kun je de tool xxd gebruiken.
xxd is standaard aanwezig op de meeste linux Mint machines.

cellie@cellie-Mint-64 ~ $ echo Hello World\! > temp
cellie@cellie-Mint-64 ~ $ xxd -i temp
unsigned char temp[] = {
0x48, 0x65, 0x6c, 0x6c, 0x6f, 0x20, 0x57, 0x6f, 0x72, 0x6c, 0x64, 0x21,
0x0a
};
unsigned int temp_len = 13;

Om de variable niet in RAM maar in ROM terecht te laten komen verander je de code als volgt:

const char temp[] = {
0x48, 0x65, 0x6c, 0x6c, 0x6f, 0x20, 0x57, 0x6f, 0x72, 0x6c, 0x64, 0x21,
0x0a
};
const int temp_len = 13;

ESP8266 – .softAP() en .softAPConfig in Arduino IDE

De config komt na de init. Dus:

WiFi.softAPConfig( myIPAdress, myGateway, mySubnet );
WiFi.softAP( "myAP" );

is fout en

WiFi.softAP( "myAP" );
WiFi.softAPConfig( myIPAdress, myGateway, mySubnet );

is goed.

Same goes for WiFi.config() en WiFi.begin().
Eerst de init dan de config.

ESP8266 – Gebufferd binair SPIFFS lezen. #2

270 KB/s.

De int bufferSize = 1460 is cruciaal, dit is nl de TCP hw buffer size.

  }
  File thisFile = SPIFFS.open(fileName, "r");
  if (!thisFile) {
    webClient.print("HTTP/1.1 404 Not found\r\n\r\n");
    webClient.print("ERROR 404 - '" + fileName + "' was not found.");
    return;
