receiving GPS data using z8's get_data API

[iwanttolearn]

i used zilog microcon.
the output of a GPS receiver is a string of about 60+ characters.
the gps is connected via uart0.
ive read in an application note that i can use the get_data API to pass and process the said string in a z8 microcon via the get_data api. the problem is i have no idea how. ive tried doing something like

char gpsdata[80];
gpsdata = get_data();

but am still not successful. any help is appreciated. thanks

That's your entire program?

Have you done anything with this microcontroller at all before? If that's your entire program, you need to start from square one and study up on the C language. Start with the sample programs. Light an LED.
