Format API

The format API is used to build large or repeating output.

Allocate memory to format complex or large output.

• void BeaconFormatAlloc (formatp * obj, int maxsz)

Append data to this format object.

• void BeaconFormatAppend (formatp * obj, char * data, int len)

Free the format object.

• void BeaconFormatFree (formatp * obj)

Append a 4b integer (big endian) to this object.

• void BeaconFormatInt (formatp * obj, int val)

Append a formatted string to this object.

• void BeaconFormatPrintf (formatp * obj, char * fmt, ...)

Resets the format object to its default state (prior to re-use).

• void BeaconFormatReset (formatp * obj)

Extract formatted data into a single string. Populate the passed in size variable with the length of this string. These parameters are suitable for use with the BeaconOutput function.
