Hello,

Is there a way to convert each gxObject (any type) attribute to string? There is a function int obj_toString(gxObject* object, char** buff) but it adds additional strings like "Index: 2 Value:" etc and I need only attribute strings.

Is there a function that returns single attribute to string something like this obj_attrToString(gxObject *object, int attributeIndex, char **buff) or it has to be newly written?

Hi,

Hi,

obj_toString is the only one that shows the content of the object as a string. You need to do it by yourself, because there is no standard way how to show read data. Simple data types are easy to visualize, but showing arrays and structures isn't so easy.

BR,
Mikko
