I have this code...
When I power my micro I can write the string fine, but cannot send anything else to the driver, the driver is getting stuck with "8.8.8.8.8.8." displayed on the screen, what an I do?

void vd_I2c1_pcf85134_lcd_display_update(void)

{

  for(uint8_t z = 0  ; z < i2c1_pcf85134_lcd_maximum_command_length; z++)

  bool bl_colon1  = false;

  bool bl_colon2  = false;

  bool bl_null    = false;


  for(uint8_t u8_i = 0, u8_j = i2c1_pcf85134_lcd_maximum_command_length - 2 ; u8_i < display_number_of_digits; u8_i++)

  {

    if(u8_lcd_display_data[u8_i] == '\0')

      bl_null = true;

    if(bl_null)

    {

      u8_i2c1_buffer_tx[u8_j--] = '\0';

      u8_i2c1_buffer_tx_index++;

      if(u8_i2c1_buffer_tx_index == (i2c1_pcf85134_lcd_maximum_command_length - 1))

          break;


    }

    else if(u8_lcd_display_data[u8_i] == '.')

      u8_i2c1_buffer_tx[u8_j] = seg_dp;

    else if(u8_lcd_display_data[u8_i] == ':')

    {

      if(u8_i < 3)

        bl_colon1 = true;

      else

        bl_colon2 = true;

    }

    else //character is for a 7 segment digit

    {

      u8_i2c1_buffer_tx_index++;

      if(u8_j < 3)                  // Dont clear u8_i2c1_buffer_tx[2] to [0] pcf85134 command bytes

        break;

      u8_i2c1_buffer_tx[u8_j] = 0;  // Initialise next digit data -@TODO -bug: first encoded character isn't zeroed before ORing

    }

  }

  u8_i2c1_buffer_tx[u8_i2c1_buffer_tx_index++] = (bl_colon1 << seg_colon1) | (bl_colon2 << seg_colon2);

  u8_i2c1_buffer_tx[u8_i2c1_buffer_tx_index++] = 0x00; //Not Used


  //DMA1_Channel6->CNDTR = u8_i2c1_buffer_tx_index + 1;


  HAL_I2C_Master_Transmit(&hi2c1, display_Addr, u8_i2c1_buffer_tx, 32, 100);


}


void WriteString(const std::string& s)

{

  sprintf((char *)u8_lcd_display_data, s.c_str());



  vd_I2c1_pcf85134_lcd_display_update();

  while(I2C1->CR2 & (uint16_t)I2C_IT_BUF);

 

}


int main(void){


WriteString("8.8.8.8.8.8.");


}

If I could I would delete the question but I can't, I have asked for it to be deleted.

Essentially, the question was formatted all wrong and I wasn't happy with it.

As a rule, threads and posts are not deleted except in cases where they violate AAC rules.

The request still stands, that you need to state what was wrong and how it was corrected.

The fix was to make sure that the data length was correct in

HAL_I2C_Master_Transmit(&hi2c1, display_Addr, u8_i2c1_buffer_tx, 32, 100);

32 needed to be 11 which was the correct data length.

Thanks for responding with the fix.
