About [ format: prepare: {format} ] command response.
Why its response is of a different kind if compared to other commands response?
command
[ format: prepare: exFAT ]
response
[ 216 format ready
xxxxxx
]
As pre Developer Information Manual
[If a response carries parameters, the response text is terminated with a colon, and parameter name and value pairs follow on subsequent lines until a blank line is returned]
Can you explain what does it mean by [If a response carries parameters] ?
As per my understanding parameters are of the following type
{Parameter}: {Value}
the following response of [ help ] and [ commands ]
[201 help:
{Help Text}
{Help Text}
]
[212 commands:
<commands>
.
.
.
</commands>
]
[ help ] and [ commands ] response doesn't follow {Parameter}: {Value} pattern but still they are terminater by ":" literal.
Why only [ format: prepare: {format} ] response does not terminater by ":" literal ?
We cannot write generic response parser because of this, we need to write command-specific response parser.
is it a bug?
why there is not any explanation about format command (other commands have an explanation) in Developer Information Manual Version 1.8?
