    ISO 8583 c library unpack message


    Asked 8 years, 4 months ago Modified 5 years, 6 months ago Viewed 3k times

    I want to know how I can unpack an ISO 8583 message using DL ISO-8583 Library (C
    Language) written by oscarsanderson?
    1 For example, if I have such message: Here's my code

    #include "dl_iso8583.h"
    #include "dl_iso8583_defs_1993.h"
    #include "dl_output.h" // for 'DL_OUTPUT_Hex'

    #define ISOHEADER 4
    #define ISOHEADERSTR "%04d"

    int main ( void )


    {
    DL_ISO8583_HANDLER isoHandler;
    DL_ISO8583_MSG isoMsg;
    DL_UINT8 packBuf[1000];
    DL_UINT16 packedSize;
    char
    msg[]="0210323A40010A418010380000000000000000042005080501139212080504200422513207200000100
    163011511463331563GBAAASDD ERRR
    1300101B5439100100001765435000000000009030000026841000000030000000000000089810000943100000
    000000000000000036000299";

    unsigned short iso_req_size,iso_resp_size;


    char iso_header[ISOHEADER+1];
    char iso_req_buf[10000];
    char iso_resp_buf[10000];

    /* get ISO-8583 1993 handler */


    DL_ISO8583_DEFS_1993_GetHandler(&isoHandler);
    DL_ISO8583_MSG_Init(NULL,0,&isoMsg);

    // Unpack message
    DL_ISO8583_MSG_Init(NULL,0,&isoMsg);

    (void)DL_ISO8583_MSG_Unpack(&isoHandler,msg,strlen(msg),&isoMsg);
    DL_ISO8583_MSG_Dump(stdout,NULL,&isoHandler,&isoMsg);
    DL_ISO8583_MSG_Free(&isoMsg);

    return 0;

    I want to retrieve those fields when unpacking the message:

    [000]: 210
    [003]: 380000
    [004]: 000000000000
    [007]: 0420050805
    [011]: 011392
    [012]: 120805
    [013]: 0420
    [015]: 0422
    [018]: 5132

    2 What have you tried so far? How did it work? How didn't it work? Is there something specific that you
    get stuck on? I also recommend you read the help pages and the Stack Overflow question checklist. You
    might also want to learn how to create a Minimal, Complete, and Verifiable example.

    1 I might have formatted msg incorrectly. – Mike Sherrill 'Cat Recall' Aug 11, 2014 at 11:45

    1 @MikeSherrill'CatRecall' - nope, it's fine – kolossus Aug 12, 2014 at 12:48

    1 Your char msg[] is not a valid ISO8583 message. I think you meant char msg[] = "\x02\x10\x03" ...
    . And don't use strlen , this is not a string. – M.M Dec 17, 2014 at 20:27

    1 You are right Matt McNabb my message was not right but the problem i have is how to send \00 in a
    socket because once i write "\x02\x00\x03" and i send through the socket i am receiving \5c00 instead
    of \00.any idea? i am using m2m switch from morocco –  knk Feb 10, 2015 at 13:42

    you must convert your msg from hex format to binary. like this

    2 binMsg[0]=0x02
    binMsg[1]=0x10
    binMsg[2]=0x32
    binMsg[3]=0x3A
    binMsg[4]=0x40

    untel last bites.

    and use :

    (void)DL_ISO8583_MSG_Unpack(&isoHandler,binMsg,strlen(msg)/2,&isoMsg);

    To my knowledge DL iso 8583 library written by oscarsanderson does not work with
    hexadecimal bitmap.So first you need to convert hexadecimal bitmap to binary then you need
    1 to know the properties of iso structure fields(i.e element type
    (numeric,binary,alphanumeric,ascii etc),length,length type(fixed length or variable
    length)).After knowing this you can retrieve the fields
