Retrieving the Contents of a File from the Target PC

to the Host PC

You can retrieve the contents of a data file from the target PC by using xPC

Target methods on the host PC for the

xpctarget.fs object.

Use the method syntax to run an

xpctarget.fs object method. The syntax

method_name(fs_object, argument_list) can be replaced with

fs_object.method_name(argument_list)

For example, to retrieve the contents of a file named data.dat from the target

h=fopen(fsys,'data.dat');

This opens the file data.dat for reading and assigns the file identifier to h.
