Working with ListOfByte
Artanicus:
So, I've got MQTT running and I'm getting beacons fine. I can even push data myself, but it seems I'm restricted to payloading a ListOfByte and cannot payload a string directly. Converting a String to ListOfByte works fine: payload.Add(payString) .. But how do I do the reverse on the backend side? I don't really know what language you're emulating so ListOfByte seems like a confusing and undocumented data type that's hard to work with.
(Is there really no option to just push a raw string without conversions on the other side?)
kristofferis:
You should not have to do any conversion on the clients that is connected and subscribed to the topic that you are publishing on.
Have you tried and seen something strange?
Artanicus:
I don't have a working example right now (don't have Windows available right now) but I'm watching the beacon stream and trying to decode it somehow but it's not really making much sense. What I was getting out of trying to push any string content was similar. Example hexdump of beacons below.

kristofferis:
Please try to connect a MQTT client to your broker and watch the result of your string that you have published.
I am doing it like this and its working. You do not need to make any conversion on the connected client.
Artanicus:
Seems you are correct, the ListOfByte gets automatically decoded by the gateway before pushing to MQTT. I really wish there was proper documentation. -_-
