After some testing i reccomend for serial data processing,

some short code that quickly handles the datarecieved interrupt.

and about a 100 or 150 msec handling the data, but this is al depending on your project off-course.

private int recBufferLength = 0;

private byte[] recBuffer = new byte[2048];

/* Data reception interrupt handler */

internal void DataReceived_Interrupt(object com, SerialDataReceivedEventArgs arg)

{

// byte[] buffer = new byte[serialPort.BytesToRead];

Int32 curRead = serialPort.Read(recBuffer, recBufferLength , serialPort.BytesToRead);

recBufferLength += curRead;

}

// i use some sort of data process moment, each 100 or 150 msec.

// at this moment i turn the data into a string.

sRecieveData += new String(System.Text.Encoding.UTF8.GetChars(recBuffer, 0, recBufferLength));

recBuffer = new byte[2048];

Also if there is an incomplete http response from the ESP8266, remember how the request was made.

Http1.0 or HTTP1.1.

testing against a linux apache server the HTTP1.1 could use Chunked responses.

( there will be some strange identifier ?? 8d4 in this case.) http://en.wikipedia....ansfer_encoding

for a different request i get a response of 39342 bytes.

But still my response with the ESP8266 is choped at around 1450 bytes.

Also after getting some serial port data back, and do some string searching.

I did not check how long this takes. an array search will probably be a lot faster ?

this.SendTimeOut = System.DateTime.Now;

// search string

for (int i1 = 0; i1 < 10000; ++i1)

{

test.IndexOf(":" + i1.ToString());

}

Debug.Print(this.SendTimeOut +"::"+ System.DateTime.Now);

Hi Chris,

Thanks for the support,

I did some string tests.

this.SendTimeOut = System.DateTime.Now;

System.String test = "";

for (int i1 = 0; i1 < 10000; ++i1)

{

test += ":" + i1.ToString();

}

Debug.Print(this.SendTimeOut +"::"+ System.DateTime.Now);

this itteration takes about 68 seconds for 10000 repeats.

And turns out it does only 147 times per second the ( += string function ).

so this is only 1200 bytes per second, not fast enough for the 9600 baud rate.

I will look into some array functions to do similar functionality.

I know the STM32F427 is quite fast with array functions.

Any one have some nice example that will run fast ?

Hi Chris,

Actualy, i changed the speed to 115200, and get about 1450 bytes at each http response.

so quite an improvement. Different than i expected....

But some data is still choped, at the end, this is not a real problem, for only sending some simple sensor data to a webserver or database.

I get the "RXOver" type in ErrorReceived_Interrupt(object sender, SerialErrorReceivedEventArgs e)

This is an input buffer overflow ?

So to fix this i need to speed up reading and processing data from the input buffer ?

I'm still wondering what the slow part is of this code (DataReceived_Interrupt) ?

there is an example of the esp8266 driver ( https://github.com/brusdev/ATModem )

this code handles the return data of the module in arrays, i think to avoid slow string processing ?

This module has only 256 bytes cache. as far as i can test, and read on the internet.

also i did not think about that the data rate could be to slow,

during testing i saw with the interrupt routine many times only get 2 to 4 characters.

but i will change it and see what happens.

i know the baud rate can be changed of this module. it started with 115200, and i thought it would be to fast for netmf.

so it's not the string manipulation that is slow but rather the interupt trigger fired many times ?

if i get serial data back bigger than about 256 bytes the stream is choped at irregular places

thanks

i will try it tomorrow.
