Serial.write(0) #1006

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago 
I can't use Serialx.write(0) because compiler said:
"... is ambiguous ...".

Serialx.write((byte)0) is ok.

Probably compiler don't know if is a pointer or a int.

IDE 1.0.1
Windows XP Pro pack 3
Arduino MEGA

I can confirm the issue.
Same here, with Arduino IDE 1.0.1 on Arch Linux.

The solution is the same as issue 527.

The "fix" is only a fix for HardwareSerial.
Why only solve this for HardwareSerial?  What about all the other libraries 
that use the Print class that have the same issue?.
Why not solve it in Print so that all the other libraries pick up the fix?
Think about the others: SoftSerial, LiquidCrystal, and many 3rd party lcd and 
glcd as well as other communication libraries that could all benefit from
putting the fix in Print rather than having to update every single library 
individually.

The compiler produces larger, slower code if the change is made in Print.  Is 
that worthwhile?
