C :: Writing Garbage Data To File
Mar 21, 2013
Im programming client/server app that client provide the file name then the server send it to client then the client will save it ..this is part of code in client
Code:
char buffer[1024];
printf("FIle is being downloaded ...
");
printf("%s
",buffer);
}
[code],...
So i have 2 problems ::
1st one is when i write to file the file permission i cant define it with data type mode_t ,so the file does not open at all after creation...
2nd one is: the data in buffer is less than 1024 ,the data wrote to buffer but with garbage data . How to make the file read only the real data with garbage ??

I am trying to write one data to my file(myfile.#abc).
Code:
FILE * pFile;
int iLast Col=3;
fopen_s (&pFile,_T("myfile.#abc"), "w+");
fwrite ((char *)&iLastCol,1,2,pFile);
fclose (pFile);
Inside file ia getting a value like this
[ETX][NULL]
What is mean by ETX,Like that some other variable I amgetting [SUB],[STX]etc.what is this?

I am having problems either writing data to a binary file or reading from the file. Through the process of elimination I am posting the code where the data is written to file to see if I can eliminate that as an option. I know the data is being processed correctly because, through the use of another function, I can view the data.
I also know that fwrite must be including some padding because the file size ends up being 576 bytes after it is written instead of 540 bytes (the size it would be if no padding is used). Here is my struct:
Code:
typedef struct {
char teams[25];
float wins;
float losses;
float pct;
int runsScored;
int runsAgainst;
} STATISTICS;
Here is where I initialize it:
Code:
STATISTICS stats[12] = {
{"Anaheim Arrays", 0.0, 0.0, .000, 0, 0},
{"Pittsburg Pointers", 0.0, 0.0, .000, 0, 0},
{"Indianapolis Integers", 0.0, 0.0, .000, 0, 0},
[Code] ....
And here is the function that writes my data. The sA array is only used to change the scheduled games based on the variable week.
Code:
void schedule(STATISTICS stats[]) {
FILE *f;
int sA[12], week = 0, runsPerGameA = 0, runsPerGameB = 0, runsAgainstA = 0, runsAgainstB = 0;
int index, a = 0, b = 1, i = 0;

I'm facing a problem regarding data entry in file.I'm making arrays which terminates when I press enter key but problem is that character at 0 index is not in file while rest of the indexes are there .. In other words,while writing on file my first character of any array got missed and did'nt present in the file ..
char CNIC[10000];
std::fstream file1;
cout<<"Enter CNIC's >>>>>>>>>>> "<<endl;
file1.open("Nadra database.txt",std::fstream::in | std::fstream::out | std::fstream::app);
if(!file1) {
cout<<"File was not open";
} else {
for(int i=0;i<11;i++)
[code]....

I'm trying to read a file that is in byte format then append it onto another file. I'm doing this with unsigned char variable types because they're always one byte. Since the format is simply using bytes, they don't care about the character representation. However, when I read the characters in then put them out again, the '/n' character is always preceded by the '/r' character. In hexadecimal this looks like 0D0A. I have no control of this, and it seems as if it's being done automatically by the ofstream.put() function.
So, is there a way to take away this appending of characters and simply writing the raw data to the file?

fstream ifs;
ifs.open ("data.str", ios::binary | ios:ut);
char *data1 = "data1";
char *data2 = "data2";
ifs.write(data1, strlen(data1));
ifs.write(data2, strlen(data2));
when i this,data2 is not going under data1, i thought each write starts on a new line?

When you have to write data on a file in binary mode multiple times (without closing the file), is the put pointer left where you ended writing the last time, or do you have to use tellp() or seekp() again and again to make sure you write at the right place?
I would have the same question about the get pointer, does he stay in place after you're done reading something (without closing the file, of course), or do you have to set it back at the right place with seekg() ??

How would i write a functor for this code. The code is written to read data from a file and store in a multimap.
The data has numbered lines. E.g.:
1 This is a string
2 This is a string too
So the aim is to store each word in the line with the number and then to enter a word to search for the line numbers it appears on. I do not know how to go about and write a functor
#include<iostream>
#include<sstream>
#include<fstream>
#include<cstdlib>
#include<map>
using namespace std;
int main() {
multimap<int, string>myMap;

I am trying to make a project using arduino to control several power surces by time, i don't want to have an lcd, that would be easyer but i don't have enought space on my project, i want to set the time and the timing for the relays via Serial
Of curse i could set it using the serial monitor on the arduino ide, but i want to make a simple program to make the pc comunicate with the arduino and make it simpler to set the time and similar stuff. How to use one of my usb ports to print and read serial data?

I am trying to use myfile to create and write user data to a file [URL].
At the moment I only want to save as .txt so that I can open it to see that it wrote to file properly.
The main issue I get is that it says the file is not open when my program gets to the error checking at the very end, a few guides mentioned that if the file was not yet created a file with the specified name would be generated in the same folder as main on the hard drive. I did try creating the file as a notepad .txt file but it still read the error. Here is the snippet concerning the writing of the file:
void WriteToFile() {
if(myfile.is_open()) {
myfile.open("userdata.txt",ios::in);
myfile<<"User name: "<<NameFirst<<" "<<NameLast<<"
[Code] ....
it compiles fine with the rest of the program and everything runs smoothly, it just isn't writing to a file.I have included <string>, <iostream> and <fstream>.

Basically, I want to write an image to disk in parallel with an algorithm that is processing that same image. The code is really simple:
Code:
string ProcessImage(System::Drawing::Bitmap ^bmp, System::String^ targetFile) {
bmp->Save(targetFile);
System::Drawing::Bitmap^ bmp8 = BitmapConvertPixelFormat(bmp, 8); //<-- a function I wrote which converts the 32bpp I am passed into an 8bpp one
string results = Analyze(bmp8); //<--- takes a good bit of time
return results;
}
What would be the fastest way to do this? Any libraries with a code sample. I would prefer one that is within .NET or native C++ just to avoid having to link into many different libraries.

I am writing a double number in Binary format to the console of program A (in FORTRAN) with the following code:
Code:
REAL*8 A
A = 12.54
INQUIRE(6, name = xstring)
OPEN(1,file=xstring, access='stream',action='write')
WRITE (1) A
CLOSE(1)
And trying to read that number by program B (in C++) which is connected to program A by anonymous pipes. Following is the reading part of program B:
Code:
#define BUF_SIZE 5000
BOOL bSuccess = FALSE;
char Buf[BUF_SIZE];
DWORD dwRead;
for (;;) {
bSuccess = ReadFile( V_hChildStd_OUT_Rd, Buf, BUF_SIZE, &dwRead, NULL);
if( ! bSuccess || dwRead == 0 ) break;
}
Note: V_hChildStd_OUT_Rd is a handle to the output of program A.
After running the program although bSuccess becomes TRUE, Buf array does not include the number (12.54) that I am expecting. If I do the same process without using the binary format it works fine and I can read the number. I know somethings wrong with the writing or reading of binary data but I do not know what it is.

How to read and write an arbitrary number of bits from/to a file stream.
For instance, how to repeatedly read 9 bits from a file, then change to 10 bits, then 11 bits, and so on?
Obviously one way is by doing a lot of bit shifting, and masking. But honestly, I'm too dumb to get it right. Then I thought about using std::bitset and std::vector<bool>.

I am writing a simple file/text parser to read a config file for some code I am working on. It's dead simple and not particularly smart but it should get the job done. The code reads a config file:
Code:
readlength=2500000
start=0
finish=25000000
cutoff=20000
samplingfreq=250000
poles=10
filterpadding=500
}
[code]....
Here is where it gets wierd. You'll notice that there is an unused variable (filepath) in the config struct. This variable is not referenced or used anywhere in the code, ever. Yet if I comment out the declaration of char filepath[1024], the code segfaults partway through the read_config() function.
My best guess is that there is a buffer overflow elsewhere and it just so happens that the memory allocated for filepath happened to be there to catch it up until now, but I can't work out where it might be happening. With the declaration commented out, the read_config() function gets as far as reading the "padding" variable before it crashes. Yet when the declaration is there, then all the variabled are read correctly and everything seems to work.

One of my class assignments is to create a program that receive a .txt file containing a students name and their grades as follows: John K. 99, 87, 57, 89, 90, 95 Amanda B. Jones 100, 88, 76, 99, 86, 92 etc.. The number of students is unknown until run time. You have to take those grades and average them weighing the first (4) at 10% a piece and the next (2) at 15% each and the final at 30%. Then return an output file with the students name and their letter grade A,B,C,D,F based on their computed score. In addition, on screen it needs to display the average scores for each Q1, Q2, etc. as well as the minimum and maximum for each test on the screen. I am having a hard time in assigning the scores to a variable so that they can then be computed as an average and then used to determine a letter grade. I have begun to write the code and am a bit stuck..here's what I have so far:
Code:
//
// main.c
// Final Exam
//
[Code].....
The problem I'm having now is how to go about passing the grades to the function computeGrade and then compute the average and return that to the function.

I am trying to write my files to another subfolder . Below is my program.
Code:
cat th6.c
#include <pthread.h>
#include <stdio.h>
#include <string.h>
#define SIZE 8
#define NUMELM 8
[Code] ....
I observe my filename along with directory as text in the new file created in sublfolder. This is output.
[cporgs/apue/threads]: mkdir first
[cporgs/apue/threads]: ./a.out test.txt first
test.txt -- first/test.txt
dfdfdfdfdfdfdf-14
dfdfdfdfdfdfdf-14
in thread test.txt first
[cporgs/apue/threads]: cat first/test.txt
dfdfdfdfdfdfdffirst/test.txt
[cporgs/apue/threads]: cat test.txt
dfdfdfdfdfdfdf
I could not able to get from where this filename and folder is getting added.

So i have this code:
if (get_brick_at(Position(row, column)) == NULL)
Where get_brick_at is defined like this:
>Brick& get_brick_at(const Position & p) {
return board[p.get_row()][p.get_column()];
}
Now, of course this does not work since the compiler cannot convert from long int to a Position. So how do i know if the return value of get_brick_at is garbage?
I also have a couple of other situations where i want to return some kind of NULL-like value under certain circumstances.
My question is: How do i handle situations like that?

I'm working on my program that takes input of the employees' first and last name, their payrate, their deferred from check and also the amount of hours they have worked which then the gross is calculated and also the taxes are calculated by an external function. In the program design it is necessary to put arrays which I have done, but when i compile I receive warning messages
Code: warning: format '%s' expects argument of type 'char*', but argument 3 has type 'double'
Warning: format '%f' expects a matching 'double' argument [-Wformat] which I believe is causing my program to just give me garbage when I run it. What do those warnings mean?
Code:
/* Name: Arturo
Date: 03/22/13
Purpose: To learn
*/
extern void calculate taxes(float gross,float deferred, float *ft, float *st, float ........i);
void ovtHrs(float *hrs_wrk, float *ovt_hrs, float hrs, float *gross, float payrate);
void netPay(float gross, float deferred, float ft, float st, float ssi, float *net);

Here's my code:
struct Member {
char *name;
char *address;
char Interests[][10];//<------problem
int numofInterests;
Numbers digits;
[Code] ....
Now the Program:
newMember.Interests[numofInterests];
newMember.numofInterests = numofInterests;
for(int i = 0; i < numofInterests; i++) {
printf("Enter %s's %i interest: ", newMember.name, (i+1));
[Code] ....
it's a array of cstrings, but i can't figure out how keep it from outputting garbage, i'm assuming it's because i didn't end it with a null terminator but when i did, it didn't work.

Code:
#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
// Define doubly linked list structures
typedef struct link singleLink;
typedef struct trashLink singleTrashLink;
struct link {
[Code] ....
Alright, my code is almost complete, I just can't get the clearFromList function to work correctly.
Here's what the program does, in a nutshell:
- Create two doubly-linked lists, one to hold numbers 0 through i, the other to hold a randomly generated list of numbers no greater than i to be "trashed". The same number cannot be "trashed" twice.
- Go through the main doubly-linked list and "skip over" the numbers that are listed the trash doubly-linked list (i.e. "delete" them without actually freeing them).
- Free both lists at the end.
I still have to free the trash list, but that's easy. I'm just stuck getting the clearFromList function to "skip over" each number in the main list that is added to the trash list.
