I am trying to use C# with C++, two different applications that work together.
In C# it is easy to get a byte array out of a string, by just using Encoding.Default.GetBytes(of-this-string);
I can pass bytes to my C++ program by just writing in the embedded resources. But this won't allow strings, as far as I know it can only be a byte array. C++ reads the embedded resources a LPBYTE.
So I try to send the string or message in byteform.
However the problem in C++ is that there is no Encoding.Default.GetString(xxx)
Would there be any other ways to send a message/sentence in bytearrayform and request it in C++ back to the original string?
I am trying to store each char of a string(string a ="1100") into a byteArray ( byte[] byteArray = new byte[4]. its not showing any error but its storing like below:
I don't know why but its replacing 1 with 49 and 0 with 48.what am I doing wrong or how to do this?
my code is as below
byte[] byteArray = new byte[4];)/> int binArrayAdd = 0; string a ="1100"; foreach (char Character in a) { byteArray [binArrayAdd] = Convert.ToByte(Character); binArrayAdd++; }
i need to search for a keyword in a binary(.raw)file and have to extract the characters(until a '&' character is found)that immediately following the keyword .
Right now im creating a program that use xbox inputs and then send out keyboard functions using sendInput();
It works fine, but now im creating a system wich lets the user of the program change the settings in a textfile. Wich will then change what the controllers bindings are.
example, if settings.txt says: Y=button(0xIE)
i want the program to know that when xbox button Y is pressed, execute a sendInput function to the Key: A (0xIE).
The problem is that the virtual keycode (0xIE) i take from the settings.txt is stored as a string (lets say it is stored in string Y_event)and input.ki.wScan has to be of type BYTE. i made a function wich changes string into int. (because input.ki.wScan seems to be fine getting a int?)
int stringToInt(string insert) { char back[20]; for(unsigned int e=0;e < insert.length();e++) { back[e]=insert[e]; } return atoi(back); }
but when i run the code nothing happend...
In the code i have a function wich executes the keypress: void pressbutton(int key, int time)
when i send in the converted string it doesn't work but when i send in: (0xIE) it works.
pressButton(stringToInt(Y_Event),50) // doesn't work pressButton(0xIE,50) // works
So basically here I have a menu in my C program and if I were to select option 2, I would enter a string up to 30 characters and it would output each block of 16 bytes should be shown which contains a character in the requested string. However, when I compile and run the program and search for the string, nothing happens. what I may be doing wrong?
Code:
else if (select == 2){ printf("Enter a string of up to 30 characters: "); scanf("%s", &userstr); //Compares both user's string and file string for (i = 0; i < size; i++){ if (strcmp (buffer, userstr) !=0){
I basically want to create a save editor application that will enable people to alter various values in the save by clicking on releveant buttons and then also for the editor to auto update the checksum when changes are done.
The save file is in hex so from what I can gather I would need to create a button to open the file using 'open file dialogue' and then read the file into a byte array so that the values can be called at any time when a particular butto is pressed and the application will then seek to the point in the file to make the required changes.
I have an application that has its own embedded web server. I am trying to add jQuery/Ajax file upload capabilities to the application however, I am running into issues getting the posted file. The jQuery/Ajax portion is similar to this method here. Due to the way the webserver was written (its in a dll and I do not have access to the source), the posted file comes in as a byte[]. If I try to save the byte array directly to file using:
File.WriteAllBytes("path", ByteArray)
I end up with a corrupt file that I cannot open. I believe this is because the byte array also contains the posted file header info (Content-Disposition, name, filename, etc.). If I view the contents of the byte array using:
System.Text.Encoding.Default.GetString(ByteArray) the header info can be viewed as: ------WebKitFormBoundaryQfPjgEVpjoWgA5JL Content-Disposition: form-data; name="0"; filename="someimage.png" Content-Type: image/png ‰PNG
Based on the selected file size and the size of the byte array, the entire file is in the byte array. How can I go about extracting and saving the posted file from the byte array?
I'm trying to understand why a conversion from a byte array (unsigned char) to a double works when done one way and not antoher.
In the example code I test by hard coding an unsigned char array of the same bytes that the double consists of.
When I copy the bytes to a long long and cast to double the result is not the original double but if I use a struct the bytes can be set and the conversion happens.
Seems to me that both ways should work. I'd just like to know what is going on with the "struct way" that makes the conversion correct. I see in debugger that the bytes in memory are the same for piAsLong and u.bytes.
My compiler is VS 2012 and a long long and double are both 8 bytes (tested with sizeof). This is learning activity only.
Code: #include "stdafx.h" #include <iostream> #include <iomanip> using namespace std; union { double d;
I'm having trouble reading a block of bytes into a vector of short ints. My code is as follows:
Code: FileStream.seekg(2821); vector<short> g_Data; int iter = 0; g_Data.reserve(maxNumOfInts);
[Code] ....
The relevant block of data starts at offset 2821 in the file. Every two bytes are a signed short integer. What's odd is that it's giving me the correct results only part of the time. At offset 1052421 and 1052422 there are two bytes 40 and 1F that are correctly read in as 8000, but at offset 1052415 and 1052416 bytes 88 and 13 are read in as -120 instead of 5000.
I don't see anything wrong with my code, though, unless I'm misunderstanding completely how to convert an array of two bytes into a single float. Is my method correct? Better still, is there some way to just convert en mass an array of bytes into a vector of signed short ints?
I'm trying to parse some binary data in the form of an array of bytes and I've come across something that is confusing me related to the representation of data as chars versus ints. It's a bit of a long story, but the byte array contains a mixture of character data and integer data which I' having trouble unravelling. The problem seems to arise from the issue below:
In my application there is a structure that holds 200 parameters for 200 tests. These structure is converted to byte array . I want to write this byte array to a file in save button and when I click open button, this file must open and write these bytes to corresponding text boxes. How it possible.?
I know how to do this in c++ with fstream and std::string and getline and so on and so forth. Im writing my code solely in c however. I can't get g++ installed so figured it was a good excuse to learn c instead of using the equivalent c++ abstracts.
My problem is, I'm making a game in c that I have made in c++ but have ran into an issue with my map. I want to read in my map from a file which just looks like this: Name of Town * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * etc...
so i tried using fscanf to first read in the name of the town (stored in a char*) then read in the characters (in this case '*')(not including white spaces becuase i can just print those) into another char*. what is the better way to do this?
let's say I have an IntPtr that points to the raw data of System.Drawing.Bitmap. is there any way to create a byte array from that IntPtr without copying the data? I'm a pretty experienced C++ programmer, so I can call ToPointer() on it and convert to a byte* to work with it as a pointer, which is no big deal for me, but using a pointer and doing pointer arithmetic increases the risk of bugs, so I'd prefer not to do it that way if there's another way.
I am creating a to-do list application and to store the tasks on the list, I am trying to create a linked list. the code for it so far is as follows:
public class Node //Class for nodes which make up a linked list { //Declaring the data to be stored in each node and next variable to point to the next node public string title; public string description; public string priority; public string finish; public string complete;
[Code] ....
The problem with this arises when I try to create a new node from another class like so:
createForm create = new createForm(); //Creates an object reference to createForm create.ShowDialog(); //Shows the createTask form for creating a new task //Declares variables and stores the return value of methods in createForm string _title = create.getTitle;
[Code] ....
The variables _title etc.. all store values from text boxes as string. However, the code creating the object says the the variables cannot be implicitly converted from type 'string' to 'int'. Why this error is happening??
You might notice that the above code doesn't compile, this is the error:
cannot convert parameter 2 from 'BYTE [2][4]' to 'BYTE *' 1> Types pointed to are unrelated; conversion requires reinterpret_cast, C-style cast or function-style cast
Even after some search I couldn't really find an answer to my problem, how do I pass the const BYTE array which I declared above in the function as a parameter (or what structure do I need to set for the function as a parameter)?
Processing time for the above code takes 9500 to 9900 microseconds (Used QueryPerformanceCounter).
Code: TempArr[0] = ((BYTE*) pvData) [0];
This code takes 1100 to 1200 microseconds. My doubt is, The processing time of PVOID data into byte array conversion takes time like above? Or any other easy way(PVOID data into byte array conversion) to reduce the processing time?
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?
