Stream class

readBytesUntil()

Stream::readBytesUntil, readBytesUntil, Stream.readBytesUntil

readBytesUntil() reads characters from a stream into a buffer. The function terminates if the terminator character is detected, the determined length has been read, or it times out.

// PROTOTYPE
size_t readBytesUntil( char terminator, char *buffer, size_t length);

// SYNTAX
stream.readBytesUntil(terminator, buffer, length);

Parameters:

• stream : an instance of a class that inherits from Stream
• terminator : the character to search for (char)
• buffer : pointer to the buffer to store the bytes in (char *)
• length : the number of bytes to read (size_t)

Returns: returns the number of characters placed in the buffer (0 means no valid data found)
