C++ :: Output To Console And Log File
Apr 4, 2013
I have 18,000 lines of code that i would like to upgrade to include a log file. I want to replace the cout with a stream or something similar so that i can easily output to the console and to a log file at the same time with minimal change to 18,000 lines of code. I'm nearly there.
I used this post heavily as a reference; [URL] .... however it is highly incomplete and this is above my knowledge so I'm struggling somewhat.
I was able to get the bulk of it working with some guess work and modification to the code from that link.
For some reason i had to comment out "mstream(void);" and "~mstream(void);"
Also how to get :
mstream& operator<< (ostream& (*pfun)(ostream&)) {
pfun(coss);
pfun(cout);
return *this;
}
to work for endl as per the previous link. Not sure if i'm even putting it in the right place. Otherwise the code works fine for streaming to both locations and such. See the code below;
#include <iostream>
#include <fstream>
#include <string>
using namespace std;
class mstream {

I am currently doing a complex number calculator ,and i wish to output my data to a txt.file . i tried fstream and it doesnt work. However the txt.file was created but no text was output.
Below is the program:
#include<iomanip>
#include<cmath>
#include<iostream>
#include<fstream>
using namespace std;
#define PI 3.14159265358979323
double z,x;
[Code]..
When impedance A & B are in series,the effective Impedance is " <<setprecision(4)<< z << " + j" <<setprecision(3)<< x<<endl;
else
cout << "
When impedance A & B are in series,the effective Impedance is " <<setprecision(4)<<z << " - j" <<setprecision(3)<< x*(-1)<<endl;
}
void Complex::showdiv(double &z,double &x) {
if ( x>= 0 )
cout << "
When impedance A & B are in parallel,the effective Impedance is " <<setprecision(4)<< z << " + j" <<setprecision(3)<< x <<endl;
else
cout << "
When impedance A & B are in parallel,the effective Impedance is " <<setprecision(4)<<z << " - j" <<setprecision(3)<< x*(-1) <<endl;
}
class Polar:public Complex //inheritant from class Complex
{
protected:
double r,d,r2,d2;
public:
void PolarValue();
void ShowPolar();

I have a file named "A6.txt" inside it has this code:
April Joe, 1, SUPER DUPER ULTRA SECRET, 02031982|
Matthews Jocob, 2, TOP SECRET, 11031992|
Garfield Kitty, 3, SECRET, 04041942|
Lake Bill, 4, MEH, 12031968|
Jones Betty, 5, WATCHLIST, 06031974|
Goodman Betty, 6, BANE OF SOCIETY, 05021952|
Very Simple, all it has is "Name, ID, Access, Date of Birth" (DOB needs to be formatted like 00/00/0000 if possible)
Output should Look like :
Client #1:
Name: April Joe
Access: SUPER DUPER ULTRA SECRET
DoB: 02/03/1982

How do I output a Unicode number if I extract a character off a console or out of a file.
If I do the below, I use the Unicode number to show a character. The below shows me 25² .
char b = 'u00B2';
mystring = "25";
mystring.append(1,b);
How do you go back the other way? If I extract the 25 and the ² separately, how do I get the unicode number for ² ?

is there a way to change output of console without clearing the screen? so making some kind of animation?
e.g.
I have used
Code:
cout << "Hello";
is there any way I can erase last "lo" and replace it by "p" so I will have "Help" without clearing the screen ? just changing the output like some text file?
I tried using something like this
Code:
#include <iostream>
using namespace std;
int main() {
cout << "abcd";
long pos = cout.tellp();
cout.seekp(pos-2);
cout.write("ef", 2);
cout.flush();
cin.get();
return 0;
}
but it doesnt work, there is still a "abcd"...

I am wrapping up a Linux/C programming assignment that requires several small programs for encrypting and decrypting text. There is a bash grading script which will be used to assess the performance of my programs. The script runs fine on my local machine and all of my tests pass, but when I run everything on my University's server via SSH, the script is not behaving the same. I am fairly certain the error exists somewhere in my C code, because no other students are having this issue. The 4 main programs consist of 2 daemons which wait for clients to connect via sockets, and the two clients. There is a daemon/client pair for handling encryption, and another for handling decryption.
And here is a screenshot of what happens with the same files on the remote server:As you can see, in the 4th and 5th tests (where the program's output should read), it's instead showing "ssIgnore this message". In later tests (not pictured) there is another message that reads "ddServer to client message". This text appears nowhere in my code or the grading script, so it must be server-side.

Alright, so to better myself with network logic I've decided to make a small net game.
I need to input commands to the console as well as output status updates at the same time. I'd prefer to write a gui interface for that, but I'd rather work with WinAPI as little as possible (I mean, look at the way it's designed...).
I'd like to do this with standard operations, limiting dependencies is a must for me.

What does the order of console output from your program tell you about when the static object is initialized?
#include <iostream>
using namespace std;
//class
class Firstclass {
private:
Firstclass(); //constructor
~Firstclass(); //destructor
[Code] ....
Doesn't it allocate the class static variable to the heap, thus executing its algorithm then destroying it when the program ends - or. What exactly does it tell me? When the static variable is initialized, it takes place first before any of my other functions?

I used to use OutputDebugString, and not using it now because it only allows to strings to be outputted, are there any methods that I can dump virtually anything to the console?
cout << thing << endl;
But what if I am not start running the program from the command prompt?

Write a program that reads from total.dat file and displays its contents to the console. The program should allow the user to add new entries to the file.
So far this is what I've got and I'm not sure if I even started right.
#include <iostream>
#include <fstream>
using namespace std;
int main () {
ifstream dataIn;
ofstream dataOut;
dataIn.open("total.dat");
cout << dataIn;
return 0;
}

Convert this code into one where you can input the file directory from the console?
#define WIN32_LEAN_AND_MEAN // prevent windows.h from including "kitchen sink"
#include <windows.h>
#include <iostream>
#include <string>
using namespace std;
int main()
{LPCSTR Application = "C:Program FilesWindows Media Playerwmplayer.exe";
// Media file extension must be provided
// Paths are quoted
[Code] ....
This code works but the directory can only be changed from the code not the console.

I am stuck in visual studio 2010 file I/O ... i placed file1 file2 using the following program under VS2010/projects/projectname/file, file1 and also in debug also once......I am actually using cmd line arguments in debug mode
Code:
// feof files.cpp : Defines the entry point for the console application.
//
#include "stdafx.h"
#include<stdio.h>
#include<stdlib.h>
#include<conio.h>
int main(int argc, char* argv[])
[Code] ....
I dont think in C++ forum the printf will do any problem...when i run the program it says "cannot open source file" and a window appears saying"Debug assertion failed"....and other details such as Expressionstream!=NULL).perror

Having some trouble with an assignment. Here is the prompt. Write a program that reads the telephone.dat file and displays its contents on the console. The program should allow the user to add new entries to the file.
I have saved the file into a resource file within visual studio and I am trying to run the code to where the file will be shown when I run the program. I know that the program is running and the file is there because if i misspell the filename it will give me the error message. I don't know how to make the contents of the file display. Here is what I have so far.
#include <iostream>
#include <fstream>
#include <string>
using namespace std;
int main() {
ifstream inputFile;
[Code]...

All I am trying to do is create another source file in a simple Visual Studio C++ console application.
I get the following errors:
intellisense: expected a delcaration
error C2447: "{" missing function header
I didn't create another int main () in this source file, so what is causing these errors.

I am working on a project that uses a web service to extract a PNG image from a web server and save it on a local machine. It's done via a system call. I can get the output of the system call to a FILE but it appears to be losing data, most notably the PNG chunk names (IHDR/PLTE/IDAT/IEND, notably). (Unfortunately piping the output to an exterior file does not work through a system call.) The end result is ~6KB smaller than the file I am intending to retrieve.
This is the code I'm using (adapted from other material I found via searches here):
ofstream png;
png.open(/*outputfile*/, ios::binary);
FILE* fp = _popen(/*SYSTEMCALL*/, "rb");
string responseString;
if(fp != NULL) {
char a[100];
while(!feof(fp)) {
fgets(a, 100, fp);
responseString += a;
}
}
_pclose(fp);
png << responseString;
Am I missing something or just doing it wrong?

Suppose I have a txt file that I want the contents printed to the console in such a way that every five words are colored blue and the following five are red. How do I accomplish such a task? I am currently only able to print the contents of the file in regular color using ifstream.

I have been trying to read a comma separated .txt file into an array and print it to console in C++. The txt file consists of two columns of double type data. For some reason the program runs, but gives blank output in the console. I want to know if I am doing something wrong. So far this is what I have:
#include <iostream>
#include <fstream>
#include <string>
using namespace std;
int main() {
int i=0;
double x[10];
double y[10];
string line;

I'm new to programming and i'm trying to do a certain task. I want to use a for loop to read certain data from a txt file and print them to a console. I'm trying to read student names and their grades.
Something like
3 // 3 represents the number of students.
George 97
Sarah 70
Maya 88
The data may vary but it's always in this format.

I have written a C++ program I have multiple of CSV file used as input, which I open one at a time and close it after extracting data to a output file which is the only file.
I run getline(inFile,line);
outFile << line << endl;
I run this code, and only part of it is goes to the output file I got, also have spacing randomly to specific file and inconsistent
But when I slower the code, like system("Pause") in the loop, I can get extract what I want perfectly....
Is my program running to fast, why getline would be skipping part of what things I want?

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 last (2) at 30% each.
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:
#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <math.h>
