Extract a variable number of bits of byte array

Hello

I was working on the decoding of a binary file and one of the tasks is to extract data from a fixed-length U8 array variable bits. The image below is a simple illustration of this particular task.

Now, before you post you solution, I have already examined 2 methods of forum I searched so far, here is the following excerpt from a simple example of code.

So 2 of the U8 data array element, I extract the 3, 9, and 6 bits of the data in this table and place it in another table (for simplicity).

However, I believe that these 2 methods may not be effective in terms of speed and memory performance.

I would like to know if there is than other alternatives to solve this problem. If so, share with us.

Thank you.

Kind regards

I'm here with GerdW.  If you have a set of data block (blocks of 8 or fewer), read like a U64 data and then make a few little shifting and masking with ANDS to recover your data.

But looking at your two methods, you can not remove it use the table since this is an expensive process.  Instead, use the subset of table and keep track where you are in the table with an another shift register.  Who would avoid some memory allocations and expedite method 2.

    Hello

    You can get the length (in bytes ) of a string using s

    LENGTHB (s)
    

    s may be a single character.

    To get the bit length, multiply by the number of bits per byte or 8:

  • Variable number of objects detected in Calculator handling VBAI

    I have an inspection looking for shiny objects (holes) in a product, and in general it is not all (good), but when he does I need to know the location of each hole, to determine the xy-limits of the area of holes, that is, the minutes and culminates each hole xy coordinates. To do this, I would use a stage of caclulator and iterate through all of the holes found... but I don't think that the calculator can handle a variable number of holes... or it can?

    Thank you

    Eric

    Hi Eric,.

    Step of the calculator does not support tables. We have had many requests on the better table support in VBAI and we are going to solve it.

    In the meantime, you can browse the results of a step that produces berries by building a state diagram a bit more complex. Index Example.vbai measures and classify objects Example.vbai for examples on how to do it.

    I hope this helps.

  • (number of bits) in a number

    I am decimal to binary conversion and I try to get the number of bits in the binary number called "binary resulting Numer' exit in VI... How can I get?

    #Bits control SETS the number minimum of characters in the string.  The string contains a lot more characters than required to represent the number.

    It sounds as if you are trying to determine the length of the minimum string that displays a binary representation of your number.

    If you use a %b format string and check the length of the output string will display the number of characters in the binary string.  You can also format the control or the indicator to display in binary, assured representation is one of the integer data types.

    With your decimal entry defined for I32, be careful with negative numbers. They all have the same length = 32.

  • With a variable number of input ports on a Subvi

    How can I have a Subvi with a variable number of input ports that can be changed in the other VI that uses the Subvi?

    You can't actually do what you trying to do, how LabVIEW is implemented does not screw created by the user with arbitrary entries.  And to be honest, there is probably a better way to do whatever it is you want to do.

    If you really really want to do that, but... you can come kind of close.

    1. create a new VI

    2. change its connector to the one with the inputs and outputs pane more possible (terminals 8-6-6-8, 28)

    3 create controls/indicators for any desired input/output of not scaling can connect the (i.e. the error in / error, son of reference, etc.)

    4. hang them until the connector pane

    5 count how many entries are left and create a control for each entry and their son all

    6 drop your VI on the block diagram of the VI one another as a Subvi

    7. Note that when you mouseover, it looks like a Pincushion

    8. right click the VI and uncheck the "display as icon".

    9. you can now "slide down" at the bottom of the VI

    The terminals in the section "slide down" are as a package by name or node property that you can click on them to reallocate them to what it is not already selected.  The default is to make all the entries in alphabetical order, then all the outputs in alphabetical order.  If you rename the terminals that allows you to make appear in the order that you prefer is up to you.

    As all terminals, for the best that you can do to detect if they are wired is to define a default value that should never be used.  If she is floating points, you can use 'NaN' or 'Inf '.  If this is a cluster that you did, add an item more boolean which is true in the default values for this entry VI.

    Then just wire up all the identical terminals together in a table, filter the items which appear to be unwired and make all your treatment on the rest.

  • Extract the Variables from Script Powershell

    Hey guys

    I am building a workflow active directory of this synchronization for the IAC database and I'm looking to make the most effective possible by reducing the amount of powershell scripts I use one only and then use the variables powershell to get what I need.

    Is it possible to extract the variables stored in a variable of workflow instead of use the output of the powershell statement?

    Has anyone built a workflow to users of this synchronization of DB works maximum efficiency on the when modified date now that mine is 28 minutes to synchronize 200 users.

    Matt

    From a design point of view, I would say to use the generic OLEDB data adapter.  There is an OleDB for Active Directory Provider called ADsDSOObject. You can find it by searching on the Microsoft site.  It can be installed as part of the standard Windows or .net.  I'm not sure. If you could get it saved on the server of PO, you would be able to do a select and use the output as native table instead of the Powershell output analysis.

    PowerShell has a tendency to be underperforming.  Certainly, I'd caution against the appellant PowerShell repeatedly in a loop.

    The collections have some counts; scalars don't.

    l_numbers is a collection, so you can see the number of items contained in it like this:

    DECLARE

    List_of_numbers_t TYPE TABLE IS NUMBER;

    l_numbers list_of_numbers_t: =.

    list_of_numbers_t (1,2,3);

    BEGIN

    DBMS_OUTPUT. Put_line (l_numbers. (COUNT);

    END;

    /

    l_numbers (1) , however, is just a scalar NUMBER, you can't use COUNT on it

    In other words, l_numbers (1) is the number 1, so we can not say

    DBMS_OUTPUT. Put_line (l_numbers. (COUNT);

    for exactly the same reason that you can't say

    DBMS_OUTPUT. Put_line (1. (COUNT);

  • Generate PrivateKey using byte array

    Hello

    I'm working on my school project, where I should simulate the DDA authentication. I placed my public and private keys inside byte [] variables in the applet, and in order to encrypt and decrypt messages I need to convert these arrays of bytes to the PublicKey and PrivateKey objects. I know that javacard.security defines a key factory class keyBuilder, but I can't understand how to use this class, to rebuild my keys, which are in the byte array. Is there a way to do this?

    hem. toString? a string? JavaCard know only 8 and 16-bit atomic types and tables. No int. No tank. No java.lang.String.

    How long have you studied javacard?

    the offcard entity will get the keys in arrays of bytes, put them in APDU, send the APDU to the javacard inside the map applet using javax.smartcardio. the javacard applet will then store the buffers received in key forums.

    I think you're mixing offcard code of java and applet javacard "at a distance". There is no magical conduit between java objects and plastic in a card; you need to send APDU commands to the cmdlet to store your keys inside the applet. This means developing a bunch of javacard code that will run in the map, using GlobalPlatform to download the code of the card.

  • Shift of the bits in an array

    Hello

    I am a student in Electromechanics in Belgium and I do a simulation of an explosion with 48 leds for my final project.

    In the attachment, you can see the program that I have already written. I think that this can be done more easily, but I don't know how.

    I cut out 48 leds in 2 tables, with each table 24 LED.

    If you see the program you will understand actually the best way to do this is to shift bits, but I don't know how it can be done in LabVIEW.

    I have to expand my program so it would be nice if I could just let you what to get a better overview.

    So what I would like to know, can I shift "bits" as you can see the leds burning in following VI?

    It must be possible to set the number of bits that are '1' and movement speed.

    3 bits at a time:

    (1) 1110 0000 0000.

    (2) 0111 0000 0000.

    (3) 0011 1000 0000.

    (4) 0001 1100 0000.

    5bits both:

    (1) 1111 1000 0000.

    (2) 0111 1100 0000.

    (3) 0011 1110 0000.

    (4) 0001 1111 0000.
