Cheap Signal Analyzer

I bought this very cheap 8-input signal analyzer sometime ago on E-Bay, but since then never had time to use it, mostly due to the driver available was for Windows only. But a few days ago, I plugged it in on my Linux Mint and googled based on VID I found, I stumbled upon a cool opensource project called "SigOk", a complete project to support various embedded instruments, including my signal analyzer. It comes with a nice GUI front-end called "PulseView".

Pointers of String

It is always tricky dealing with string in C/C++, but if we know the rule of evaluation of expression in C++, it's not that hard to understand it.

A string declaration is always evaluated from right to left. For example, "char *str" is evaluated as "a variable with name 'str' is a pointer (*) of type char".

Another example:

"const char *str" is evaluated as variable str as a pointer of type char that is const (the content is immutable"). (Please remember, "const char .." expression is identical to expression "char const ...")

"char * const str" is evaluated as a variable with name 'str' is a constant pointer to type char, meaning once the pointer is initialized to point to a string, it cannot be changed to point to another string.

"char const * const str" is evaluated as "a variable with name 'str' is a constant pointer to constant char content. It is a combination to all above.

#include <iostream>

/*

char* str:
const char* str OR char const *str
char* const str:
const char* const str:

*/

#define L(v) #v << " = " << v

using namespace std;

static char cstr[] = "String ini statis!";

int main()
{
char* ps1; // just a regular pointer to a string
ps1 = cstr;
cout << L(ps1) << endl;

#if 0
char const * p_constr = cstr;
// the following causes compile error, as it tries to change value of the static string
*p_constr = '1';
cout << L(p_constr) << endl;
#endif

// a dialect of the above (char const *)
const char* p_constr2 = cstr;
*p_constr2 = '1';
cout << L(p_constr2) << endl;

#if 0
const char* const const_ptr = cstr; // the pointer cannot be set to different one

// the following will cause compile error
const_ptr = cstr2;
cout << L(const_ptr) << std::endl;
#endif
}
