Help converting unit8_t * param to const char * for use in cJSON

Postby wegunterjr » Sat Sep 01, 2018 1:55 am

In the GATTS Write event, I get the param

Code: Select all

 case ESP_GATTS_WRITE_EVT:
                cJSON *root = cJSON_Parse((const char*)param->write.value);
                cJSON *firstValue = cJSON_GetObjectItem(root, "first");
                char *format = cJSON_GetObjectItem(firstValue, "super")->valuestring;
                char string = cJSON_Print(root);
                printf("fun is here %s \n", param->write.value);
                printf("fun is here %s \n", string );
                
The problem is that I must be doing something wrong with the pointer and causing the ESP32 to reboot.

Suggestions?

What source statement is the failure occuring at? What is the error?

It appears to be null, so when I put these checks in to check for NULL, it doesn't reboot.
Trying to recreate it now... but for now, here is the code sample:

Code: Select all

 cJSON *root = cJSON_Parse((const char*)param->write.value);
                if (root == NULL) {
		            fprintf(stderr, "Failed to parse JSON.");
                }
                else
                {

                    cJSON *firstValue = cJSON_GetObjectItem(root, "first");
                    char *format = cJSON_GetObjectItem(firstValue, "super")->valuestring;
                    char string = cJSON_Print(root);
                    if(string == NULL)
                    {
                        fprintf(stderr, "Failed to print JSON.");

                    }
                    else
                    {
                        printf("fun is here %s \n", param->write.value);
                        //printf("this is new %s \n", string);
                        cJSON_Delete(root);
                        free(string);
                    }
                }

I send over a simple string: hello, and it reboots.

Here is the code that was running when it crashed.

Code: Select all

 cJSON *firstValue = cJSON_GetObjectItem(root, "first");
                char *format = cJSON_GetObjectItem(firstValue, "super")->valuestring;
                char *theData = cJSON_Print(root);
                printf("fun is here %s \n", param->write.value);
                printf("this is new %s \n", theData);
                cJSON_Delete(root);
                free(theData);

char string = cJSON_Print(root); -> char *string = cJSON_Print(root);

I made the suggested change to use the char string* = cJSON_Print(root);

and Put the NULL checks back in. It seems to not be NULL.
