C/C++ :: Program That Can Merge Files From Command Line In Li
Sep 22, 2014
I have written a C++ program that is supposed to open two text files (prog2a.dat and prog2b.dat) and write the contents of a specified range of lines to an output file (outfile.dat). I wrote a program that based on the example we were given (to take lines 5-15 from the first file and lines 4-12 of the second file and merge them into the output file) works perfectly. However, after asking my professor for some clarification on another part of the assignment, I found out I have not done this correctly. I have the code written so that it will always output the range of lines I mentioned earlier, but the program is actually supposed to allow the user to merge the files from the command line using whatever range they want by typing in the following command:
prog2 in1 5-15 in2 4-12 outfile
But I'm not sure how to tweak my current program to allow this to be done.
Here is the code that I have written, keep in mind that this works properly for the way it is written, but not how it is supposed to work for the purposes of the command line (hopefully that makes sense):
#include <iostream>
#include <fstream>
#include <cstdlib>
using namespace std;
int main() {
// Create output file
std::ofstream outFile("outfile.dat", ios::out);
[Code] .....
Is there any simple way to make this work as I described using the command line? Also, I am supposed to break this up into three files, a header file, the program file, and a test file (the test file contains main() and should close the 3 open files and display any error messages), but I'm getting really confused as to what should go in the header file. I know the header file should contain class definitions and constructors, but don't really know how to make that work for this specific program?
The below program is supposed to display the contents of all files listed in the command line. When I try to run the program I get the fatal error "Debug Assertion Failed" Expression: file != NULL. I've done some researching on the matter and I gather it might be because I don't have any files listed in the command line?
How to enter files in the command line! I opened the Command Window in Windows XP and tried typing in "C> argc" and "% argc" (argc being the name of the file containing the below program) without any luck.
Code:
#include <stdio.h> #include <stdlib.h> int main (int argc, char * argv[]) { int ch; // int to hold EOF int count; FILE *fp; for(count = 1; count <= argc; count++) // agrc loop
I am having an issue with the statement "Both the input and output files' names should be read from the command line." I don't understand what this means or what I need to do.
I need to write a ANSI program to print out each command line argument on a separate line using a for-loop. also it need to print the name of the executable .so far I have
Code:
#include <stdio.h> int main(int argc, char **argv) { int i; printf("")
l need to write a program which writes out its command line arguments in reverse order one per line. The output from the program should look like this:
% a.out Two roads diverged in a yellow wood wood yellow a in diverged roads Two
I need to write a program that merges the numbers in two files and writes the results to a third file. The program reads input from two different files and writes the output to a third file. Each input file contains a list of integers in ascending order. After the program is executed, the output file contains the numbers from the two input files in one longer list, also in ascending order. Your program should define a function with three arguments: one for each of the two input file streams and one for the output file stream. The input files should be named numbers1.txt and numbers2.txt, and the output file should be named output.txt.
In the following program, I have gotten it to work with IO redirection (not shown in this particular code), and have made some minor adjustments to get it to work with file processing. The only thing I have to do now is get it to work with command line arguments, and am slightly lost (and I have looked into it).
I basically just need to take a text file from a certain directory and send it to my program. Would need two files, an input and output file.
I have code that creates an index file created from a data file of records.
#include <iostream> #include <fstream> #include <map> #include <sstream> #include <string> #include <iomanip> using namespace std; class Record {
[Code]...
I now need to write a second program that allows the user to enter a command on the Linux command line such as
search 12382 prog5.idx
and returns the information for the record with that key. The code I included for the index file is correct and works properly, but how to write the second program.
Here is the index file created by the first program:
I'm just getting back into the swing of things after a long time of not programming. I'm trying to create a program which takes in command line arguments and prints the last one. My code is as follows:
#include <iostream> #include <vector> #include <string> using namespace std; int main() { string x; vector<string> arguments;
[Code]...
And the error message I receive, a simple but frustrating one, is as follows:
Enter arguments, enter STOP to stop: Segmentation fault...
I write a program which now works perfectly well. However, I want to make it run at the right time automatically, instead of waiting for a user to start it when needed.
The basic problem is, that in a WinPE environment an exe is running. Unfortunately it would need critical input, which must be inputted perfectly. So, I wrote a program which gets the data and sends it to the other app, by bringing it to the front and presses the keys needed using SendInput().
However, this program should wait for it's cue, then get on the inputting part. It's cue should be the point where the program waits for the first user input with this displayed on the last line:
Text:
My question is: how to listen and check whether the last line displayed is "Text:"?
I've tried with AttachConsole(), but for some reason it opens a new console window. I checked and the PID I'm using is the console window's, so I don't know why that happens.
Please don't criticize the first line. I know it can be ambiguous, but I modified it, When actually using it, the exe name will be in the title, so it will be unique.
I am attempting to merge binary files. However, this is to no avail. The program keeps segfaulting. I want to merge the buffers the files are stored in and then write the new one to disk. Anyway, here is my code.
I have to merge two sorted files. Algotrithm that i'm using is below, but it reads not all the numbers in the files, and stops, even the files contain the same number of elements. What is wrong, I can't understand.
I'm trying to finish this project which is supposed to read two files, and merge them alphabetically. I've written this code, and it compiles. But it isn't actually doing anything??The console opens and closes immediately upon running.
Code: #include <iostream> #include <fstream> #include <cstdlib> #include <string> using namespace std; #define hisFamily "The Adopted.txt" //His family #define herFamily "The Originals.txt" //Her family #define ourFamily "The Big Picture.txt" //Our family
I am using visual studio 2010 c++ express for C/C++ programming but is novice here to take command line arguments..i did went to project->properties->debugging and specified there the command line arguments but it didnt work..i think i need to know the format to enter the arguments.
int get_command_line (char * sa) { char * s; char * l = fgets(s, 300*5, stdin); int i = 0; int j; int n;
[Code] ....
The aim is to have the function return the number of arguments made after assigning each of the arguments to a c string stored in an array of five pointers. This is how I declare this:
int main(void) int n; char s0[300]; char s1[300]; char s2[300]; char s3[300];
I'm trying to read in a file specified in the command line but I'm having some trouble. The command line entry specifies the inputfile preceded by '<' and the output file preceded by '>' like so
I am writing a c++ program in Linux.. I am reading a line from commandline at run time using "getline(std::cin,str);". now, what i want is if i left the commandline as idle (terminal as idle), then i want to know that the commandline is empty... is it possible ???
I'm currently working on making a program that is run through a GUI run through the command line. The program basically takes an app file and a boot file and runs it through a bunch of functions and generates a new outfile. Anyway I'm new to C and can't figure out how to code it so I can type the two file paths into the command line and read them into the function. Is it possible to do this within the "if else" statement?
I tried the exercise 5 on page 312 of King's Book C programming A modern approach second edition. Write a program named sum.c that adds up its command line arguments which are assumed to be integers . Running the program by typing :
sum 8 24 62 should produce the following input
Total : 94
Use the atoi function to convert each command line argument from string form to integer form
My solution is :
Code:
#include<stdio.h> #include<stdlib.h> int main(int argc , char *argv[]) { int i , sum=0; }
[code]...
It is running good without problems but I am wondering because it is very small solution with few lines of code.
I have to make a c++ program, in which with an algorithm I have to code a text from a file and write it to another file. The input should like this: "code forCoding.txt toBeWritten.txt" ; or like this: "decode toBeReadFor.txt toBeWrittenIn". I have done everything except one thig: It is says I have to be able to input parameter.
How should i write this? I read [URL] ....., but still dont get. The input of my program has to have 3 strings, so I guess argc should be 3, but I dont really get it. What should I have in my main about this parsing command line parameters?
I am not sure how to enter command line arguments when I run the executable of the file below. I want check an make sure that only two arguments get into the main() before running the rest of the code. I'm using bash on linux.
An example that I have tried to test for 2 arguments in command line -arg1 arg2 > ./a.out This of course does not work
