I just found out the hard way that 64 is not enough for getPrintableDeviceMode()... When powering up,
the default output goes to 79 characters. The result was a processor crash in my case (on Cortex Labels
M0+). The code would run once without problems, then the processor would hang. Switching to a 96 or

128 byte buffer fixes the issue.

This issue could affect other areas of the code base. Projects

That's exactly what the documentation say:

@param[out] msgBuffer The String buffer to be filled with printable device information.
Provide 128 bytes , this should be sufficient.

So your buffer was too small, which has nothing to do with 32bit.
