C++ :: Multiple Of CSV File Used As Input / Extracting Data To A Output File - Getline Function

Jun 4, 2013

I have written a C++ program I have multiple of CSV file used as input, which I open one at a time and close it after extracting data to a output file which is the only file.

I run getline(inFile,line);
outFile << line << endl;

I run this code, and only part of it is goes to the output file I got, also have spacing randomly to specific file and inconsistent

But when I slower the code, like system("Pause") in the loop, I can get extract what I want perfectly....

Is my program running to fast, why getline would be skipping part of what things I want?

C/C++ :: Extracting Information From Data File?

Apr 20, 2015

Create a simple data file like the example shown below containing the 4 dates below plus 10 or more additional dates. The file should include 1 date per line and each date should have the form MonthNumber-DayOfTheMonth-Last2DigitsOfTheYear with no extra spaces. All dates should be in this century. No error checking for invalid dates is necessary.

My Output displays like

February -19,1991

How do I get my program to ignore the dash between the dates?

#include <fstream>
#include <iostream>
#include <string>
#include <cmath>
using namespace std;
int main(){
const int M = 13;

C :: Decrypting / Extracting Custom File Formats

Sep 25, 2014

So this may be against the rules, not sure, grey area probably? However I just bought the PC game Oil Rush, and was having a look at how the assets are packed. As with most games the textures, scripts, sounds and audio are all free to access.

However the game data such as maps, models and other, are packed into UNG files, i.e a custom encrypted file format, which probably is also compressed. So I googled for an unpacker/extracter and found one which also comes with the C source. You can download here. [URL] ....

So I am trying to figure out how these authors work out this file format, from the source we have,

Code:
static const u8 unigine_mask[] = "xffx7fx3fx1fx0fx07x03x01";
u32 unigine_key = 0xa13cdbde;

Looks like a password of sorts. You then have to work out the complete understanding of the file formats, headers, blocks etc.. How is this done...

My output should be :

// getfullfilename(file, fullFileName);

C++ :: Iterate Through A File Path To Extract File Name

Feb 20, 2014

I am trying to iterate through a file path to extract the file name. since the . separating the name from the extension is a unique character, i thought i would reverse iterate from the . to the first separating directories. however, when trying to reference the memory location of the position of the . in the string, i am getting an i-value error:

for (std::string::reverse_iterator iter = &(songPath.find('.')); iter != songPath.rend(); ++iter) {
if (*iter == '')
break;
else
songName.push_back(*iter);
}

I need to append file path for some particular program. But the problem is when I append it like below, it gets error whether filepath seems to be C:/Users/My/Desktop/C++/1.txt

C :: Function That Gets As Parameter File And Folder Path

Oct 18, 2014

I'm writing a small function that gets as parameter a file's path and a folder's path, and copies the given file to that folder.

Code:
int copy_file(const char* source, const char* folder) {
char copy[PATH_MAX];
strcpy(copy, folder);
strcat(copy, "/");
strcat(copy, source);

[Code] ....

Basically, this function purpose is to make a backup of source in folder every X minutes (depending on user's input).

The problem is the second call to open():

This call attempts to open the file for writing, and creates it if it is not already exist.

It also truncates it before writing to it - and that's my concern:

Let's say this is the second time this function runs, so copy is already exist. open() will then truncate it, and then one of the system calls in the while loop fails.

In this situation, I might be left with no backup file.

The problem also arises for when source is a read-only file:

If source is a read-only file, and copy is not already exist (meaning - it's the first backup attempt), then everything's fine, but, if source is a read-only file and copy is already exist, then I have to first remove copy altogather, and make a fresh copy of source.

Making a backup with new name for copy every time copy_file() runs, will solve this problem, and how can this be accomplished?

I should say that I'd really prefer that copy and source will have the same names when copy_file() returns...

C/C++ :: Taking In File Path Names From User

Jul 22, 2014

How can I take in a path name like "C:myfolderfile.txt" where the user enters exactly that? I've tried putting the arg into a string, then looping through the string to find the '\', but by that time it is too late as c++ considers the '' as a escape character.

Is this even possible? I've googled it and everyone just says to make the user input the path with double \ or with a /.

C++ :: Open File For Writing Relative Path Given On Runtime

May 18, 2014

How it make it work for my project. Runtime means I am going to have to give the path at the command line?

Here is how I have to run it, so I can test it against the example inputs and outputs they give us to test our program. I am using putty. Already crated the folders inside my project folder, but don't know how to implement it on my source code.

./movie_stats < ./input/test1.in ./my-output/test1.out

What I'm thinking is to open/create the file test1.out in the my-output folder and open it at runtime?

C/C++ :: Change Root Path That Application Uses To Upload File From?

Mar 12, 2013

I have an application which is used for calibration for electrical components. Here I want to set a rootpath for this application. I did some research and I found out that I can get the rootpath of the application (that is where the exe is stored) But what I am really looking for is once I start the application the root path should be what I assign. For instance currently the root path is "C:UsersPublicDocumentsABC.ToolsProjects" but I would like the root path to be "E:New ABC" Is this possible? I wrote some code where I call the exe of the application and it opens the file in a folder that I specify :

private void NewJournal_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{  
string filePath = @"E:New ABCabc.vnalog"
if (!File.Exists(filePath))
{
return;
}  
string SelectedFile = @"/select, " + filePath;
System.Diagnostics.Process.Start(@"E:New ABCabc.vnalog", SelectedFile);  
}  

Now this code open the .vnalog file in the application. And this works great..!!! How can I now change the path within the application?

C/C++ :: Extracting Strings From Files

Feb 15, 2013

We have an assignment to produce code to gather a string of input from the user in which they are entering a date. We then have to extract parts of that string to make substrings, and display different formats for the date(I will add my code in here so you can see what I have done). It took me a long while plucking away at this to understand this part. You will see that at the end of my code I have opened a file months.txt. We were provided with a file which states months corresponding to dates. I.e. 01January 02February 03March 04April, and so on until December. Exactly how I have typed it is how it is in the file.

I understand how to open and extract what is in the file as a string. I have extracted this as a string called myMonth (as you can see in the code as well) NOW,

I am supposed to have the program search for the month in the file, matching that to the month the user has input earlier, and then use the number infront of that month. I understand the basics of using find(), and making substrings. But how on earth do you get the computer to correlate what the user has input for a month, to finding that in the file, and then using the correct number.

Here is the code I have done so far:

#include <iostream>
#include <fstream>
#include <string>
using namespace std;
int main() {
string myDate; // Date input from user;
string myMonth; // Input from months.txt

C++ :: Extracting Decimal Numbers From A String?

Extracting integers from a string is trivial, but I am unable to find a function or code that will extract decimal numbers from a string.

I have a string that looks something like this:
" Asdf 1 1.3825 4.0000 12.0000 1.9133 0.1853 0.9000 1.1359 4.0000 "

Any tips on extracting the numbers (in decimal form) and storing them in a vector?
