MODBUS_SET_BITS_FROM(3)
π MODBUS_SET_BITS_FROM_BYTES π
okay bestie, welcome to the libmodbus manual β specifically the page for modbus_set_bits_from_bytes. it's giving "tiny function, big responsibilities" and honestly? we're obsessed. let's get into it π¦
β¨ NAME β¨
modbus_set_bits_from_bytes β set so many bits from an array of bytes π
πΈ SYNOPSIS πΈ
void modbus_set_bits_from_bytes(uint8_t *dest, int index, unsigned int
nb_bits, const uint8_t *tab_byte);
π DESCRIPTION π
okay so here's the tea β β modbus_set_bits_from_bytes shall set bits by reading an array of bytes. that's literally the whole vibe.
the way it works is: all the bits of the bytes read from the first position of the array tab_byte get written as bits into the dest array, starting at position index. so it's a little glow-up transformation β bytes go in, bits come out, everyone's thriving β¨π¦
no cap, it's a one-way trip from byte-land to bit-land and the index is just where you want the party to start in dest.
π RETURN VALUE π
there is no return values. none. zero. it's a void function, she gives nothing back and honestly? that's her main character energy π
periodt.
