recovering SimConnect_Variables :

 SimConnect_AddToDataDefinition(hSimConnect, DEFINITION_1, "nav ident:1", "number", SIMCONNECT_DATATYPE_INT64)

 SimConnect_AddToDataDefinition(hSimConnect, DEFINITION_1, "nav name:1", "number", SIMCONNECT_DATATYPE_INT64)

 

Simconnect return numbers like :41975 or 1279738179 how this can be converted to strings ??

 

 

 

 

using NAV DME:index simconnect return 603 (on efis I read 0.3) or 41975 (on efis I read 22.7).

AddToDataDefinition(hSimConnect, DEFINITION_1, "nav dme:1", "number", SIMCONNECT_DATATYPE_INT64)

 

I have to do a conversion or are bogus values??

The FSX SDK section on SimConnect has a Working Sample called Variable Strings which should be helpful.
