I have an STM32F7508-DK and I use BSP Discovery.
The codec's called WM8994 and these are ST-MEMS type microphones.
On this board you can find 2 microphones, that I'm currently trying to use in order to do a sonometer.
I've searched throughout the example code files
We're using these 2 C functions that you can find below :
BSP_AUDIO_IN_Init(DEFAULT_AUDIO_IN_FREQ, DEFAULT_AUDIO_IN_BIT_RESOLUTION, DEFAULT_AUDIO_IN_CHANNEL_NBR);
BSP_AUDIO_IN_Record(tab, nb);
These are defined in the "stm32f508_discovery_audio.c" file, which is an example file of the things you can potentially do with the board.
You can find these files at STM github
I've already managed to receive data from the microphones, but I don't know how to treat it.
I would need some informations in order to do so :
the unit
how to convert the received data in dB's
Can you thoroughly explain what this data is ?
I'm using uint16_t and int16_t structures to store the data. Am I doing something wrong ?

I want to replicate the functionality of the IBM i Access Client Solutions "Printer Output" tool that is used to retrieve PDF's of spooled files from our IBM Db2 environment. Instead of a user interface, I want to replicate the functionality as an API.
I want to construct an API which takes inputs such as the filter parameters pictured below:
The output of the API would be PDF(s) of the printer output spooled files that match the parameters specified.
I figure that if I am able to access the i Access Printer Output tool, then I should be able to use my credentials to access the spool files using an API or something like that.
Where would I start in constructing something like this?
Also, are there any IBM guides that contain relevant information? I have looked but been unsuccessful. The Programmer's Toolkit is, also, not available with my version of i Access.
Also, I don't have developer roles, so if this is possible, it would need to be something that I can do with little authority within the IBM i servers and the Access client.
First off, IBM ACS is Java based. Thus everything it does can be found in the IBM Toolbox for Java, aka JTOpen aka JT400.

You're going to want to look at the reading a transformed spool file example
The transformation actually happens on the IBM i side, by specifying the appropriate workstation customization object, QCTXPDF in this case rather than the examples original QWPTIFFG4
// The following examples demonstrate how to set up a PrintParameterList to
// obtain different transformations when reading spooled file data. In the code
// segments that follow, assume a spooled file already exists on a server, and
// the createSpooledFile() method creates an instance of the SpooledFile class
// representing the spooled file.
// Create a spooled file
SpooledFile splF = createSpooledFile();
// Set up print parameter list
PrintParameterList printParms = new PrintParameterList();
printParms.setParameter(PrintObject.ATTR_WORKSTATION_CUST_OBJECT, "/QSYS.LIB/QCTXPDF.WSCST");
printParms.setParameter(PrintObject.ATTR_MFGTYPE, "*WSCST");
// Create a transformed input stream from the spooled file
PrintObjectTransformedInputStream is = splF.getTransformedInputStream(printParms);
I am currently trying to read the files of an RDF4J triplestore from the universAAL platform and put them into an InfluxDB to merge the data from different smart living systems.
However, I have noticed that the individual index files of the Native repository are encrypted/unreadable (See image below).
Is there any experience from the community on how to get human readable content out of the RDF4J files (namespace, triples.prop, triples-cosp, triples-posc, triples-spoc, values.hash, values.dat, values.id) and merge them into another database?
The documentation of RDF4J did not help me here, so I could not create a decent export.
Encrypted File from Triplestore
The files are not encrypted, they're simply a binary format, optimized for efficient storage and retrieval, used by RDF4J's Native Store database implementation. They're not meant for direct manipulation.
The easiest way to convert them to readable RDF is to spin up a Native Store on top of them and then use the RDF4J API to query/export its data. Assuming you have a complete set of data files it should be as simple as something like this:
Repository rep = new SailRepository(new NativeStore(new File("/path/to/datafiles/");
try(RepositoryConnection conn = rep.getConnection()) {
conn.export(Rio.createWriter(RDFFormat.TURTLE, System.out));
}
finally {
rep.shutDown();
}
Obviously, replace System.out with a FileOutputstream if you want to write the data to file rather than the console. And change RDFFormat.TURTLE to something else if you want a different syntax format.
I'am trying to read the new sensor tags Dogbone, (with Magnus S3 IC) but I don't have luck.
I'am using Zebra RFD8500 and programming with the Zebra SDK for Android.
I want to read the RSSI or the temperature values, but it seems the problem is with the Select command.
In either case, it is a two step procedure : 1) select command to match a specific tag pattern in a specific pointer address at the MEMORY_USER_BANK. Then the IC detect that have to store
the solicited value in a specific address at the MEMORY_RESERVED_BANK and 2) read the value, from the specific address at the MEMORY_RESERVED_BANK.
For the Select command (C1G2) I tried with Access-filters and Pre-Filters, but although the tag is matched, the IC doesn't store a value in the RESERVED Bank.
Somebody knows if Zebra APIs support the reading of this newers tags ? Or suggest me any other test?
Thanks a lot for your help
Regards.
It's possible to read the RSSI value with EPC Gen2 tags, so if the tag you're referring to supports this standard it should work.
Try downloading the Zebra RFID sample app > Perform inventory > If the tag is found it should display the RSSI. The sample app code can be found here
As for the temperature values try reading the USER memory in the sample app as well to see if you can get it.
I suggest using the SLS smartSLED; it has built-in functionality for the Magnus (Axzon) chip family (both S2 and S3).
Short Version
How does the shell get the properties of a file?
Long Version
The Windows Shell exposes a rich system of properties about items (e.g. files and folders) in the shell namespace.

In order for the shell to read these properties, it obviously has to use a lot of sources:
Windows Media Foundation IMFMetadata works great for images and movies
Windows Imaging Component (WIC) probably has a lot of APIs for reading metadata
I'm not sure if IFilter can retrieve Title, Author, Subject, Comments etc from Office documents
Either way, it has to read the file contents stream and do something with the contents of the file in order to get all these fancy shell properties. In other words:
IStream \
+ |--> [magic] --> IPropertyStore
.ext /
Can use it with my own stream?
I have items that are not in the shell namespace; they are in a data store. I do expose them to the shell through IDataObject as CF_FILEDESCRIPTOR with an IStream when its time to perform copy-paste or drag-drop. But outside of that they are just streamable blobs in a data store.
I'd like to be able to leverage all the existing work done by the very talented and hard-working1 shell team to read metadata from a "file", which in the end only exists as an IStream.
Is there perhaps a binding context option that lets me get a property store based on an IDataObject rather than a IShellItem2?
So rather than:
IPropertyStore ps = shellItem2.GetPropertyStore();
is there a:
IPropertyStore ps = GetShellPropertiesFromFileStream(stream);
?
How does the shell get all the properties of a file?
Bonus Chatter - IPropertyStoreFactory
This interface is typically obtained through IShellFolder::BindToObject or IShellItem::BindToHandler. It is useful for data source implementers who want to avoid the additional overhead of creating a property store through IShellItem2::GetPropertyStore. However, IShellItem2::GetPropertyStore is the recommended method to obtain a property store unless you are implementing a data source through a Shell folder extension.
Tried
IPropertyStore ps = CoCreateInstance(CLSID_PropertyStore);
IInitializeWithStream iws = ps.QueryInterface(IID_IInitializeWithStream);
But CLSID_PropertyStore does not support IInitializeWithStream.
Bonus Reading
MSDN: Initializing Property Handlers
Property handlers are a crucial part of the property system. They are invoked in-process by the indexer to read and index property values, and are also invoked by Windows Explorer in-process to read and write property values directly in the files.
MSDN: Registering and Distributing Property Handlers (spellunking the registry for fun and reading contracts from the other side)
(Have some experience in Property Store handlers) How I see a solution:
Get PropertyStore handler CLSID for your file extension. You should use 2 regkeys key:
HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\PropertySystem\PropertyHandlers\.yourext
HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\PropertySystem\SystemPropertyHandlers
Create two objects with CoCreateInstance
If you have 2 object you can combine them into single object with PSCreateMultiplexPropertyStore
Query for IInitializeWithStream (also you can try to query IPersistStream).
If the PropertyStore object supports IInitializeWithStream/IPersistStream: you are lucky - just init your object and query the properties you need. If does not - you still have (dirty) variant to create temporary file and then use IPersistFile.
What I'm trying to achieve is to intercept every write to a file and track the changes within the file. I want to track how much different the file content before and after the write.
So far in my minifilter driver I registered to IRP_MJ_WRITE callbacks and can now intercept writes to file. However I'm still not sure how can I obtain the content of the file before [preoperation] and the content after [postoperation].
The parameters that I have within the callback functions are:
PCFLT_RELATED_OBJECTS, PFLT_CALLBACK_DATA and I could not find anything related to the content of the file itself within these.
These are the operations that could change data in a file:
Modifying the file: IRP_MJ_WRITE, IRP_MJ_SET_INFORMATION ( specifically the FileEndOfFileInformation and FileValidDataLengthInformation information classes), IRP_MJ_FILE_SYSTEM_CONTROL ( specifically FSCTL_OFFLOAD_WRITE, FSCTL_WRITE_RAW_ENCRYPTED and FSCTL_SET_ZERO_DATA fsctl codes).
As for the content of the file itself that you just need to read it yourself.
If you mean the buffers as they are being written for example, check this out to find out more about the parameters of IRP_MJ_WRITE in the callback data. Esentially the buffer is at Data->Iopb->Parameters.Write.WriteBuffer/MdlAddress
Make sure you handle that memory correctly otherwise it will result a BSODs.
Good luck.
