C# can not read calculatorCode for PLANE LATITUDE

[763305292]

Hi Sir,

Thank you for the DLLs you made so that we can track different variables beyond what SimConnect allows.

However, I encountered an issue where I cannot listen to (A:PLANE LATITUDE, degrees) using saveDataRequest. It always returns 0 when I try to convert the data, but the value is correct when I use 'client.getVariable(new VariableRequest("PLANE LATITUDE", "degrees", 0), out double fResult)' to retrieve the latitude.

Could you please help me? The code is as follows and thank you for your support:

var hr = client.saveDataRequest( new DataRequest( requestId: (uint)Requests.Latitude, resultType: CalcResultType.Double, calculatorCode: $"(A:PLANE LATITUDE,degrees)", valueSize: 64, period: UpdatePeriod.Tick, interval: 0, deltaEpsilon: -1.0f ) ); if (hr != HR.OK) Log($"returned error result {hr}", "!!");

Hi,

I think the negative deltaEpsilon value is incorrect (is there anything in the logs about that?). Also the latitude deltas will normally be quite small fractions, so filtering on whole degrees is probably undesirable (but I'm not sure what you're trying to do with the -1 value there).

If you do want to use deltaEpsilon feature then I would also remove the valueSize property since that is otherwise automatically set by specifying the CalcResultType.Double result type (or use the ValueTypes.DATA_TYPE_DOUBLE constant).

Is there any particular reason you want to use RPN to subscribe to this value? It is more efficient to request the 'A' variable type directly.

I maybe don't quite understand what you mean by

It always returns 0 when I try to convert the data

Do I understand that your OnDataReceived event handler does get called, but checking DataRequestRecord.data in the handler converts to zero? And/or can you show some more code to explain what you mean by "returns?"
