C :: Updating Record In Random Access File
Nov 5, 2014
I have been searching through the forums and found a couple snippets of code and from that i came up with this. What i want to do is search for the specific movie code and then update the movie status from inactive to active (for argument sake).
Code:
#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
typedef struct SYSTEM_MOVIE{
int movie_code;
int movie_dur;
char movie_title[25];
[Code] ....

The file name is "movie.dat" and currently i was able to save data into the file in this order:
[movie_code] [movie_dur] [movie_title] [movie_rating] [movie_dir] [movie_genre] [movie_status]
[12345] [120] [Movie] [PG13] [Director] [Comedy] [Active]
I want to search for the "movie_code" and change the [movie_status] from Active to Inactive.
So lets say for example i have a movie code 12345 saved in my movie file. I want to change the value from "Active" to "Inactive"for argument sake.
This is the code i was trying to do it with:
Code:
FILE *movie_fp;
movie_fp = fopen("movie.dat", "r+b");
int m_code;
MOVIE movie_data;
printf("*** Welcome to the movie updater! ***

In this code:
vector<int> mydata(100);
mydata[2] = 999;
In statement 2 does that call the iterator to access the 3rd position and set its value to 999?

Code:
#include <stdio.h>

#include <string.h>
#include <conio.h>

Inside of my studentinfo.txt file
Code:
Jnh Has 2353325 23 56 72 34 67 22 46 42 5 23 56 23
Daniel Laurent 6744590 10 20 30 40 50 60 70 80 90 100 40 50
This code is working totally fine. Right now, I'm trying to update a specific data from the student info. Let's say I'm trying to update my student number of Daniel. So, in this case, I want to replace 6744590 to some other student number. I think I have to use fseek() or rewind() and use fputs() but, I don't know how I should decide where to look.

How to write a C or C++ program that extracts certain numbers out of a section after the 4, 5 and 6 space.
For Example:
The output file will produce:
[ [1900 00 0 -2.000000 0.650000 0.006000 0.020000 2.274000 0.010000 54 0 0.7 10.8 1 0 0 0.000000 17.000000 0.000000 0.000000 0.000000 0.000000 0.000000 0.000000 0.000000 0.000000 18];...
So I want to extract the numbers 0.650000, 0.006000, 0.020000 because those are the 4,5,6 space after [ [
Another problem I have is that the output file I showed will always being updated constantly for instance as follow:
[ [1900 00 0 -2.000000 0.650000 0.006000 0.020000 2.2054000 0.010000 10 0 0.7 10.8 1 0 0 0.000000 17.000000 0.000000 0.000000 0.000000 0.000000 0.000000 0.000000 0.000000 0.000000 13];...
[ [1900 00 0 -1.000000 0.650000 0.006000 0.020000 2.694000 0.010000 9 0 0.7 10.8 1 0 0 0.000000 17.000000 0.000000 0.000000 0.000000 0.000000 0.000000 0.000000 0.000000 0.000000 10];...
[ [1900 00 0 -2.000000 0.6023000 0.04000 0.050000 2.2454000 0.010000 5 0 0.7 10.8 1 0 0 0.000000 17.000000 0.000000 0.000000 0.000000 0.000000 0.000000 0.000000 0.000000 0.000000 12];...
And it will keep updating like this and I want to update the previous numbers I extracted with now the new numbers after the 4,5, and 6 space.
So I have to write a code to let it know when it encounters [ [ start looking for the 4,5,6 space and get those numbers and once it reaches ;... that's the end of that section so re-look for the next section of numbers after the 4,5,6 space.
The file will be a text file or matlab file that is always being updated with these sections of numbers. Can I make this a #include<nameoffile.h> or does .h not work with a file that is always being updated.

I need to write a C++ program, that extracts certain variables, x y z, from a file that is continuously being updated x y z. These variables are going to be used to recalculate a new answer.
My question is to see if it is possible to have an include .h file that is always being updated so that I can extract these three variables from it, and always have the newest venison of each variable, so that the answer to the equation is always the newest updated. Should I use fopen or fwrite to do this.

I'm working on a program using class booktype... to hold information about various books that I have saved on a txt file. Each object of the class book type holds the author, publisher, ISBN, number of copies in stock.
I am still very much new at c++ and not exactly sure how to get in info from the file I've made earlier..
Code:
#include<iostream>
#include<iomanip>
#include<string>
#include<cstring>
#include<fstream>
using namespace std;
class bookType {
Also the text file is formatted where after I've entered the author's name I then hit return, then publisher then I hit return, ISBN then return, and so forth does that effect the program? As for my txt file this is what I have
Code:
Moby Dick

I am working on my final project for my intro to c++. Its a simple program where you buy a car, choose parts for it, see the price of it in total, buying option, and to view past records.
So my problem lies with displaying the records. For some reason(doesn't many how many records there are) the very last record displays again without the "Model" part, but displays the rest of them fine. In other words, there are 2 problems, the last record is displayed twice, 2nd that added record displayed is missing the "model"(this problem doesn't matter really if you can solve the first problem, but would still like to know why it does that).
I tried debugging it and I believe the problem lies with the --------while(fName.good()). It just decides to repeat it again even though in the text file, it does not have that extra record.
//inventory
void viewInvent(string fName)
{
//variables

Below is a snippet of my code in which it loops through a file trying to find the matching record of a selection given by the user. I use tellg() to tell me where the search begins and it does in fact start at the beginning. But when the search actually executes, it starts at the last record, loops once, and ends, as it does not find the matching record (when the user enters '24' for example)
void Hardware::updateExistingRecord(ofstream &addRecordInfo, ifstream &updateRecord, Hardware &_records) {
//selection on which field to update
enum Field { RECORD_NUMBER = 1, TOOL_NAME, QUANTITY, COST, EXIT };
cout << "Enter record number you would like to update
";
cout << "Enter zero to exit
?";

void displayA() { cout<<a<<endl; }
};

My problem: I want to make an application that is going to block the action of some files (It is anticheat files actually).
how do I make code to block the application's action?
Maybe there is another way to do that? I need to use Cheat Engine in game, and anticheat blocks it, so I thought if I'll block the activity of the anticheat it couldn't detect the Cheat Engine...
