A standalone sscanf implementation (for the esp8266)
The esp8266 standard SDK include a sprintf like function called os_sprintf. However there doesn’t seem to be a corresponding sscanf. I needed this for a quick and dirty parser I was using and so hacked the sscanf implementation out of the friendliest library I could find. This turned out to be pdclib, which has a permissive public domain license. The code is below, it’s pretty hideous but I’ve tested that it compiles on the esp8266 and at least parses the first value correctly under gcc! I’ll continue to update this post with any issues.
UPDATE: The original version didn’t support %f. I’ve update the code to include this (probably quite buggy). It still doesn’t support %d however.
