C++ :: How To Merge Binary Files
Jan 5, 2013
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.
Main.cpp:
#include "getsize.h"
long lSize;
char * buffer;
size_t result;
FILE * pFile;
FILE * pFile2;
FILE * pFile3;
void read1() {
pFile = fopen ( "uTorrent.exe", "rb");

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.
ifstream f1("E:desc1.txt");
ifstream f2("E:desc2.txt");
ofstream f("E:desc.txt");
cout <<endl<< "Nuerele sortate: " <<endl;
int n1, n2;
f1 >> n1;
f2 >> n2;
[code]...
desc1.txt is:
99 97 95 93 91 89
and desc2.txt is:
100 98 96 94 92 90
and I'm getting this:
100 99 98 97 96 95 94 93 92

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 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?

I have created a program that first sorts a series of numbers that are input dynamically then an option is given to either use a sequential search or a Binary search. my sequential search works fine but the merge sort coupled with the binary search has a small bug that I just can't seem to figure how to eliminate. I first used my own merge sort but it was really in efficient so a I took a more efficient example and incorporated it in my program but I cant seem to get rid of this bug I'm dealing with. and it seems to be causing a further problem with the Binary seach.
Code:
#include <iostream>
#include <cmath>
using namespace std;
const int N = 10;
[Code] .....

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.

I'm trying read a binary file. A binary files is continued with bytes(ascci characters). and the 1st position is the position 0(zero).
I'm trying read just some values from ICO file:
- the 3rd value is in 4th-1 position(number of icons); (See the table: [URL] .... )
- the with is the (numberoficons*16) + 4 (the 16 is the Entries structure size) position;
- the height is the (numberoficons*16) + 4 + 4 (the 16 is the Entries structure size) position.
now see the code:
int iconwidth;
int iconheight;
int iconcount;
FILE *iconfile = fopen(filename.c_str(), "rb");//open the file
fseek(iconfile,4-1,SEEK_SET); //put the file in position 6(the position starts from 0)
fread(&iconcount,sizeof(char),2,iconfile);//get 2 blocks with char size(2 bytes).. i'm getting the number of icons
[Code] ....
so what i'm doing wrong with block positions?

why I'm giving "Access violation reading location 0x336827B8" and also I was able to read my data but it's giving me weird stuff. I want to write the sorted grades and the average in a new disk file. so here's my code so far here's my code
#include "stdafx.h"
#include <iostream>
#include <fstream>
#include <string>
#include <iomanip>
using namespace std;
int avg(int sum, int size);
void swap(int *, int *);

I would like to read in binary files, then write them to another file.
I write a code, what works perfectly, if I would like to just copy the file to another. But I want to make it a little other.
If I open a file in hex-editor I also can see the ASCII values. But I would like get the ONLY the hex values to the other file.
For example:
d5 57 4f ad 30 33 0b 4e 49 a7 05 18 c4 90 66 d8 45 ac 39 3e 7d f1 a8 02 80
14 20 90 6e 20 12 38 0c 65 4a 28 d2 80 72 04 20 a9 4a 82 84 60 6a 0b 25
59 4c 30 c8 69 c0 ec fa 36 ed 3a da b1 9a 82 02 e0 bb 7e 41 87 02 f6 10 34
eb 95 93 63 01 6b 8d e1 d7 43 c3 df 92 5d 8a ed 57 61 4e 36 07 2a d7 56 2b
b5 0e 55 83 b4 76 8c b7 61 77 0e c9 76 0c 81 1b 01 63 0c 8b 73 57 d5 6d 4c
0c c2 0d 52 45 18
How could I make it?

Windows 7, 64 bits, Visual Studio 10.
I have a problem to read a large number of binary files, process them and store them under a new name. The program and routines go very well for 505 files. After reading 506 files, the program now refuses to read the next file. I have 16 Gb of memory and tried to close all other programs and restart the PC. it always stops after 506 files (512 files would be more understanding in a way...).
Here is my code. I have tried many things without success. This is only part of the loop that stops. The if test if (myfile.is_open() returns false by some reason. I can start the process again starting with the file that does not open and then it stops again after 506 files.
char * tfiBlock;
ifstream myfile (OrigFilename, ios::in|ios::binary|ios::ate);
if (myfile.is_open()) {
int lengde = myfile.tellg();
tfiBlock = new char [lengde];
//static char memblock [size];
[Code] .....
Clean up procedure:
delete[] tfiBlock;
Are there any limits to how many files that can be opened, or is it maybe someting to be set in the compiler?

I'm new with working with random binary files. I have a class with a char* pointer stored inside of it, I also have a constructor that takes in a string (of any size) from the user. I then simply store this string into the char *. Once the string is stored in the char *. I reinterpret the instance, and I store the information into the random binary file. Everything works.
Question: Random files must know the size of the object that is being stored inside of it, so why when I enter strings of different sizes into the file, it appears to still be working. for example this is an example of the code:
class info {
private:
char *phrase;
public:
info(string n ="unknown"){
phrase = new char[n.size()+1];
[Code] ....
My point is, lets just say for example the object ETC, was some long string, this would still work for me. My question is, I don't believe each object is the same size because I allocate memory for the char pointer in the constructor.
Should I not do this just to be safe, and just use a char array instead of a pointer? (Even tho I would have set a pre-defined size for the string) or is something happening in the back to prevent this from not working?

I'm currently trying to create binary file will not be able to be read as texts and will contain metadata(more like image files).
But I've tried writing to .dat, .bin files in binary mode and all of them are displaying in ascii text..which I don't want.

I am working on a airport reservation program and i have run into a brick wall. i want to ask the user its name, gender, passport no, age, destination, and travel class and figure out the day and flight code of the flight which i have saved in a binary file. now every thing works fine except the code and the day.
The programs important section
the flight class Code:
class flights {
char code[9],location[21];

Im trying to make a c++ program for a school project, and i need to store the information into binary files, but I'm having some problems trying to store a class with string members, for example:
class whatever{
protected:
string name;
public:
(List of functions)
}
But if I do that, my code just dont work when I write and read a binary file, but if I change the string to char array, for example:
class whatever{
protected:
char name[20];
public:
(List of functions)
}
It works good, so I wanted to know if there's some way to store a class wiht strings in binary files, or what am I doing wrong?

I have written in a binary file using fstream an using sort value.
unsigned shortwidth=50,height=50;
file.write((char*)&width,sizeof(width));
file.write((char*)&height,sizeof(height));
When i try to read it back from fstream again there are some symbols (binary obviously). How can i get my values back? I want to read those symbols and in a way to convert them to my old width and height values.

I am trying to read enormous binary files (10-100GB) and parse their contents a bit at a time. As part of the process I need to get the size of the file in bytes. The simple solution
Code: fseek(file,0,SEEK_END);
size=ftell(file);
fails because the file size overflows the long int type returned by ftell. I need a long long int.
Is there a reasonably efficient way to do this? The good news is that it only needs to be done once. I suppose I could read it one character at a time until I hit the end and keep count, but that just seems inelegant...

I've come to a point in tuning my algorithm, where I need to sum the elements of two arrays, eg.:
array1: (1,1,1)
array2: (2,2,2)
arrayOut: (3,3,3)
Is there any way how to do that without need to iterate? Some memory hacks?

Code:
/* Mergesort: Use merge() to sort an array of size n */
#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
void mergesort(int key[], int n) {
int j, k, m, *w;
for (m = 1; m < n; m *= 2)
[Code] .....
Question : Modify mergesort() so that it can be used with an array of any size, not just with a size that is a power of two. Recall that any positive integer can be expressed as a sum of powers of two. For example,
27 = 16 + 8 + 2 + 1
Consider the array as a collection of subarrays of sizes that are powers of two. Sort the subarrays and then use merge() to produce the final sorted array.
I tried so many algorithms and all failed!! What i dont know is how to create subarrays ?
