Hi,
(First apologies if this is not the most relevant place to post this
but I wasn't sure of where was and I am writing my app in VB.)
I'm attempting to parse a binary file for which I have the format. The
format states that the general packet format is as follows
Message header
Hex Length of whole binary packet
Binary Word of above Hex Length
etc.
I just wanted to make sure of a couple of terms before I start - most
notably 'Hex Length' and 'Binary Word'.
I guess binary word is just a binary representation of the hex length
e.g. if the hex length was 8 then the binary word of hex length would
be '1000'. However, what is meant by hex length and how is it
determined? If you could provide an example I'd be grateful.
Thanks
Paul
