I don't see a huge problem here.
Why not just parse whatever message with interesting info we get?
if (!strcmp("$GPGLL") { // extract coordinates and update buffer } else if(!strcmp("$GPGGA)) { // extract coordinates and update buffer } else if(!strcmp("$GPRMC)) { // extract coordinates and update buffer } else if(!strcmp("$GPSuperProprietaryMessageWithAwesomePrecisionData")) { // extract coordinates and update buffer } else { // no luck with this message return; }
I agree with this approach. I think that is scales well if a new device (even not nmea) wants to be supported.
