Okay, so my school assignment is to write two programs: one on an Arduino to pass data from sensors through the serial port to a computer, and one to write that information to a database. My problem is a lack of knowledge of how to feed that information to my program.
Am I able to have the Arduino write a file with a given filename that I can call with the C++ program? Or am I going to have to directly pull the data from the bus?
Well, as I am using a Windows machine to run my program, and would thus have access to Win32/Win64 headers and stuff (like windows.h), it makes sense for me to put it here.
