Hi
I think there is a misunderstanding.
I do not want to set the time of the USRP.
I want to use the USRP (with GPSDO) as my time reference.
This is why I want to query the USRP using the UHD function ptime
get_time(void) in
/host/lib/usrp/gps_ctrl.cpp @ line 133
This function only returns date and time down to seconds, and the
toked[] array has a bigger length than what is used :
"
UHD_ASSERT_THROW(toked.size() == 12); //if it's not we got something
weird in there
now = ptime( date(
greg_year(boost::lexical_cast<int>(toked[9].substr(4, 2)) + 2000),
//just trust me on this one
greg_month(boost::lexical_cast<int>(toked[9].substr(2, 2))),
greg_day(boost::lexical_cast<int>(toked[9].substr(0, 2)))
),
hours( boost::lexical_cast<int>(toked[1].substr(0, 2)))
+ minutes(boost::lexical_cast<int>(toked[1].substr(2, 2)))
+ seconds(boost::lexical_cast<int>(toked[1].substr(4, 2)))
);
"
So I would like to know the format of the string returned by the
safe_gps_read(); function,
"
reply = safe_gps_read();
"
or better the description of the toked[] array after it get through
"
tok.assign(reply);
toked.assign(tok.begin(), tok.end());
"
