C++ :: Writing Text Data To A Binary File With Fstream

Jul 9, 2014

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?

C :: Writing Binary Data Or Reading From A File

Mar 6, 2013

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;

C++ :: Writing Data On A File In Binary Mode Multiple Times

Oct 20, 2013

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() ??

C++ ::  Reading And Writing To File Using Same Fstream

Oct 16, 2013

I have a file of data where each line consists of 4 parameters (degree, alpha, beta and x) and a value corresponding to these, organized in increasing order of the parameters. Here's the test file I'm using:

0 1 1 0.5 3.5
1 1 1 -0.5 -0.5
1 2 0 0.2 4.5
1 3 0 0.2 -4.5
2 0 0 1.5 2.1
2 1 0 0 5.6

My code is supposed to look for a certain set of parameters (currently set to 1 2 1 1.5, which is not contained in the file) and its value. If it's there (i.e. the file contains the value for the right parameters) the program is done. If not it should calculate the value using a function JacobiPoly() and insert the wanted parameters and corresponding value in the appropriate place in the file.

I have a code in which I think everything works except the writing to file. I use an fstream so I can both read and write and open it with ios::out||ios::in. I'm also aware I need something similar to fseek in between input and output but according to [URL] .... reading and writing to the same file using the same fstream, seekp() should suffice. I'm using seekp(), but the output (in the form inout << (...)) doesn't work.

Here's the code:

fstream inout;
inout.open("inouttest.dat", ios::out | ios::in);
int degree=1, readDeg;
double alpha=2, beta=1, x=1.5, value, readAlpha, readBeta, readX, readVal;
bool foundVal=false;
streampos beforeRead=(streampos)0;

C++ :: Fstream - Writing In The Middle Of A File

Sep 7, 2012

I want to edit the contents of a file using fstream, but none of the modes in the fstream constructor work for me.

If I use ios::trunc, then the whole file is deleted - but I want to retain the contents and edit it. If I use ios::app, then I can only add data to the end of the file - but I want to edit the data in the middle of the file. If I use ios::ate, then the whole file is deleted again, similar to ios::trunc.

How can I create an fstream object without deleting the contents of the file, whilst still being able to move the pointer arbitrarily around in the file with seekp() (and not just placing it at the end as with ios::app)?

C++ :: Writing And Reading Binary Data In FORTRAN?

Apr 2, 2013

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.

C++ :: Reading And Writing Variable Binary Width Data

Mar 8, 2013

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>.

C++ :: Read Byte Of Char Data And Convert It Into Text String Of Binary Data That Represents Hex Value

Dec 26, 2013

I am writing a program where I need to read a byte of char data and convert it into a text string of binary data that represents the hex value...

i.e. The char byte is 0x42 so I need a string that has 01000010 in it. I've written the following subroutine....

------------- My Subroutine ----------------------------------------------------------------------
void charbytetostring(char input, char *output){
int i, remainder;
char BASE=0x2;
int DIGITS=8;
char digitsArray[3] = "01";

[Code] ....

When I submitted the byte 0x42 to the subroutine, the subroutine returned to the output variable 01000010... Life is good.

The next byte that came in was 0x91. When I submit this to the subroutine I get garbage out.

I am using a debugger and stepped through the subroutine a line at a time. When I feed it 0x42 I get what I expect for all variables at all points in the execution.

When I submit 0x91 When the line remainder = input % BASE; gets executed the remainder variable gets set to 0xFFFF (I expected 1). Also, when the next line gets executed..

input = input / BASE; I get C9 where I expected to get 48.

My question is, are there data limits on what can be used with the mod (%) operator? Or am I doing something more fundamentally incorrect?

C/C++ :: Writing Array To Binary File

Mar 10, 2014

So I'm trying to write an array of integers to a binary file. He's my code:

#include <iostream>
#include <fstream>
#include <string>
using namespace std;

[Code].....

I know that it is an array of characters right now, and I will be using the reinterpret_cast when I finish my program. Anyways, when I run the executable, it only writes 1234 to the file. My assumption was that the sizeof() was not being set properly, but even manipulating that won't fix it.

C :: Writing A Simple File / Text Parser To Read A Config File

Feb 6, 2014

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.

C++ :: Writing Output Of While Loop To Text File?

Jul 30, 2014

[URL] when I try to write my output to a file. I am building a life insurance premium calculator with c++. What my calculator does is read in a text file called "policies.txt" containing a number of different policies. For example:

Pol1 M N 20 100000 1 .04 99
Pol2 F S 30 100000 1 .05 99
Pol3 M S 72 750000 1 .03 99
Pol4 F N 45 1000000 1 .05 99

And using this, it creates a single premium. Once the calculator calculates the premium of each policy, I want it to write out the premium amount of each policy to a textfile called "output.txt". The problem is that when I check my "output.txt" file, only the premium for the last policy shows up. It only reads:

Premium for Pol4 is 220384
When I want it to read:

Premium for Pol1 is 14101.6
Premium for Pol2 is 14221.2
Premium for Pol3 is 582391
Premium for Pol4 is 220384

How come only the last policy is showing up? and is there any way to make all four policies appear in my output text file? Here is my code:

double ratesmn[86] = {
#include "MaleNonSmoker.txt"
- 1
};

C/C++ :: Writing Into A Text File Using Nested For Loop?

Nov 15, 2012

My program involves trajectory planning using cubic spline method for a robotic arm. In the process, I had to calculate joint angles for each point in the path. In the last few lines of the code I need to write the values for counter and theta1 into a text file which I called "Test.txt". I am doing this using a nested for loop(the counter runs until it reaches 19 and hence need 19 theta1 values corresponding to it). However, I can't get all the theta1 values transferred to the text file.The statement within my inner loop is wrong and don't know how to fix it.
 
for(i=0;i<num_via;i++){
            current_time = GetTickCount();  
            //joint[0] = mult_joint[i][0];
            //joint[1] = mult_joint[i][1];
            //joint[2] = mult_joint[i][2];
            //joint[3] = mult_joint[i][3];

}

[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 ??
