/*
  Serial Event example
 
 When new serial data arrives, this sketch adds it to a String.
 When a newline is received, the loop prints the string and 
 clears it.
 
 A good test for this is to try it with a GPS receiver 
 that sends out NMEA 0183 sentences.

String inputString = "";         // a string to hold incoming data
boolean stringComplete = false;  // whether the string is complete

void setup() {
  // initialize serial:
  Serial.begin(9600);
  // reserve 200 bytes for the inputString:
  inputString.reserve(200);
}

void loop() {
  // print the string when a newline arrives:
  if (stringComplete) {
    Serial.println(inputString); 
    // clear the string:
    inputString = "";

/*
  SerialEvent occurs whenever a new byte comes in the
 hardware serial RX.  Don't do complex things here, as thge
 processor halts the regular program to run this routine:
 */
void serialEvent() {
  // get the new byte:
  char inChar = (char)Serial.read(); 
  // add it to the inputString:
  inputString += inChar;
  // if the incoming character is a newline, set a flag
  // so the main loop can do something about it:
  if (inChar == '\n') {
    stringComplete = true;
  }
