• Which the release of FS2020 we see an explosition of activity on the forun and of course we are very happy to see this. But having all questions about FS2020 in one forum becomes a bit messy. So therefore we would like to ask you all to use the following guidelines when posting your questions:

    • Tag FS2020 specific questions with the MSFS2020 tag.
    • Questions about making 3D assets can be posted in the 3D asset design forum. Either post them in the subforum of the modelling tool you use or in the general forum if they are general.
    • Questions about aircraft design can be posted in the Aircraft design forum
    • Questions about airport design can be posted in the FS2020 airport design forum. Once airport development tools have been updated for FS2020 you can post tool speciifc questions in the subforums of those tools as well of course.
    • Questions about terrain design can be posted in the FS2020 terrain design forum.
    • Questions about SimConnect can be posted in the SimConnect forum.

    Any other question that is not specific to an aspect of development or tool can be posted in the General chat forum.

    By following these guidelines we make sure that the forums remain easy to read for everybody and also that the right people can find your post to answer it.

How to read RPN and convert to C++ code lines

Messages

I need to send this RPN code as standard C++ code lines in my WASM as there is no SimConnect Event for it.

I have difficulties of reading and understand these lines in order to convert to C++ code

Use Infix2Postfix program from SDK, option PostFix to Infix. Should translate it in almost "readable" format.

Thanks for guiding me to Infix2Postfix.

This is what I get after the conversion, but the lines in bold below I still do not understand



if (L:A32NX_AUTOPILOT_APPR_MODE , Bool)
{ (K:AP_APR_HOLD_ON) = result ;
(K:AP_APR_HOLD_OFF) = result ;
}
if ( ( ! (A:AUTOPILOT DISENGAGED , Bool) ) and 1 )
{
if ( 1 != 2 )
{
(L:XMLVAR_Autopilot_1_Status) = 0 ;
}
if ( 2 != 2 )
{
(L:XMLVAR_Autopilot_2_Status) = 0 ;

}

(L:XMLVAR_Autopilot_2_Status) = ( ! (L:XMLVAR_Autopilot_2_Status) ) ;

if ( ( (L:XMLVAR_Autopilot_1_Status) or (L:XMLVAR_Autopilot_2_Status) ) != (A:AUTOPILOT MASTER , Bool) )
{
(K:AP_MASTER) = result ;

if ( ! (A:AUTOPILOT MASTER , Bool) )
{
(L:XMLVAR_Autopilot_2_Status) = 0 ;
}
}
}
 
maybe like this
Code:
{
    // put not (L:XMLVAR_Autopilot_2_Status) into (L:XMLVAR_Autopilot_2_Status)
    (L:XMLVAR_Autopilot_2_Status) = ( ! (L:XMLVAR_Autopilot_2_Status) ) ;

    if ( ( (L:XMLVAR_Autopilot_1_Status) or (L:XMLVAR_Autopilot_2_Status) ) != (A:AUTOPILOT MASTER , Bool) )
    {
        (K:AP_MASTER) = result ;
        if ( ! (A:AUTOPILOT MASTER , Bool) )
        {
            (L:XMLVAR_Autopilot_2_Status) = 0 ;
        }
    }
}
 
Your original XML code was "computer generated" so it has a few quirks (even though it is probably correct) and the rpn -> infix has faithfully converted those quirks. I.e.

1 2 != if{ .... }

becomes

if (1 != 2) { ... }

and (1 != 2) is ALWAYS true so it's

if (true) { ... }

i.e.

...

Similarly a condition ( XXX and 1 ) is simply (XXX).
