I have a GPS receptor. I retrieve all the NMEA frames captured by this one in the Eclipse console.
EDIT - This is my full class :
public class GPSFrame extends Observable implements Runnable
{
static Thread myThread=null;
static BufferedReader br;
static BufferedWriter wr;
static PrintWriter out;
static InputStreamReader isr;
static OutputStreamWriter osw;
static java.io.RandomAccessFile port;
/** CONSTRUCTOR **/
public GPSFrame()
{
myThread=new Thread(this);
}
public void start()
{
try
{
port=new java.io.RandomAccessFile("COM5","rwd");
port.writeBytes("\r\n");
port.writeBytes("c,31,0,0,5\r\n");
port.writeBytes("T,1000,1\r\n");
}
catch (Exception e){ System.out.println("start "+e.toString()); }
// The thread start automatically run() method
myThread.start();
}
/**********************************************************************************************
*************************** RETRIEVE GPS FRAMES AND SEND TO SERVEUR **************************
**********************************************************************************************/
public void run()
{
System.out.println("lecture COM...");
// INFINIT LOOP - GPSFrame is always listening for the GPS receptor
for(;;)
{
String st = null;
try
{
st=port.readLine();
String[]gpsframe=st.split(",");
/* IMPORTANT - DON'T FORGET SETCHANGED() or GPSFrame'll never
* notify UPDATE() ServerBoard method - We'll never see any changes */
setChanged();
notifyObservers(st);
}
catch (IOException e){ System.out.println(e.getMessage()); }
// Show in console
System.out.println(st);
}
}
}
To do that, I searched on the net. But I don't understand the start() method. What is the signification of c, T and the number we give to writeBytes ?
(I've also posted a question about this code, but for another reason. If you can help me, I shall be extremely grateful JAVA - GPS RECEPTOR sending strange/encoded frames in console)
Can someone enlighten me please ?
Thanks a lot in advance ! :)
Best regards,
