This is what helps for me:
NSLog(@"Frametype: %hi", frameType);
NSLog(@"Serialnumber: %u", serialNumber);
Have a look at: http://developer.apple.com/documentation/Cocoa/
Conceptual/DataFormatting/Articles/FormatStrings.html
(especially the "format specifiers")
Good luck ;-)

Hi & thks
Yes I did already... the problem is to write in a NSLog the frame
and serialNumber variables.
Thank you for support

Hi Andrea,
This is a snipped of what I use in my code to parse a NSData
object: (in this case rcvdData)
short int frameType; // first two bytes
unsigned int serialNumber; // byte 10 to 14
NSRange serialRange;
serialRange.location = 10;
serialRange.length = 4;
[rcvdData getBytes:(void*)&frameType length:sizeof(short int)];
[rcvdData getBytes:(void*)&serialNumber range:serialRange];
Have a look in the documentation on the "getBytes:lenght:" method
and the "getBytes:range:" method from NSData.

Hi and thks,
My packet is made in this way:
header 3 bytes
byte 1 and 2 = payload length
byte 3 = command
after= payload.
I need to read and separate the payload length and the command,
after it get the payload...
I know the total length of the data stream: [data length], but I
need the first two bytes .... and then the byte number 3....
How can I do?
Thank you all
Andrea

Hi & thks for answer,
The problem is that I don't know the method to parse a header
and a payload....
I tried something like this:
int contentLength = [data length];
unsigned char command[100];
NSMutableData * myReturnedData = [[NSMutableData alloc]init];
NSLog (@"data %@", [[NSString alloc] initWithData:data
encoding:NSUTF8StringEncoding]);
NSRange range = {2, 1};
[data getBytes:command range:range];
[myReturnedData appendBytes:command length:1];
In order to get only the command because my packet is made by
the payload length a command and the payload.
But this doesn't works...
First off, you need to check if the requisite number of bytes
are available. If not, just return and do nothing (wait until
the buffer is full of enough bytes to perform processing). Next,
don't print your data as a string- it will be useless because,
from your previous email, it was clear that you had embedded
'\0's which denotes the end of a string, so your NSLog method
prints none of the interesting data out.
Just use:
NSLog (@"data %@",data);
which will print out a hex representation.
Then, immediately concatenate the incoming buffer to the
existing accumulation buffer/FIFO. Then, remove and process as
many messages as you can from the data stream.
