PString has now been updated to support Arduino 1.0! :)

After installing Arduino 1.0 I realized that PString doesn't work with the new Arduino 1.0 standard. an update for PString that can be used with the new version would be very much appreciated Chris Hi, I use PString in a few of my projects. After installing Arduino 1.0 I realized that PString doesn’t work with the new Arduino 1.0 standard.

an update for PString that can be used with the new version would be very much appreciated

Too bad! Mikal Yeah, unfortunately the tiny arv-gcc implementation of Xprintf() doesn’t support %f floating point conversions. Too bad!

Below is what I see on the serial monitor: str.format("CM: %04ld, SD: %6.2f, IN: %04ld, SD: %6.2f\n", cmMsec, cmSD, inMsec, inSD); gives me this: CM: 0159, SD: ?, IN: 0062, SD: ? I think it may be the underlying implementation of vsnprintf. Also the final /n is not recognized at all as I am getting the typical staircase effect on the serial monitor. I have been looking for documentation on the Arduino implementation of there C/C++ libs, do you know if they exist and if so where to find them?

It literally saved my life with the Sparkfun 16x2 LCD. I was going out of my mind not being able to print numbers or easily concatenate strings and numbers. You're a lifesaver!

May I suggest to change slightly the example ? str.print("The value of PI is "); str.print(PI,4); The ",4" to indicate the number of decimal places would be useful for people like me. Thanks !!

May I suggest to change slightly the example ?

str.print(“The value of PI is “);
str.print(PI,4);

The “,4″ to indicate the number of decimal places would be useful for people like me.

I *think* it's harmless in this case, but you're quite right. I should put that in the next edition. Thanks. Mikal Thanks, Mark. I *think* it’s harmless in this case, but you’re quite right.
