How do I represent a hex value in a python string?
Question:
I have some code in C that expects char buffer that looks like this:
char buf[ 64 ];
buf[0] = 0x01;
buf[1] = 0x11;
buf[2] = 0x61;
buf[3] = 0x08;
buf[4] = 0x01;
I am trying to create this buffer in Python, and pass the pointer to the C code. I created buf as follows,
buf = create_string_buffer('0x01 0x11 0x61 0x08 0x01', 64)
but when I pass the pointer to my C code, it looks like the C code is reading the ASCII code for 01, not a hex literal.
How do I fix this?
