C++ :: Read In Binary Files Then Write To Another File
Oct 11, 2014
I would like to read in binary files, then write them to another file.
I write a code, what works perfectly, if I would like to just copy the file to another. But I want to make it a little other.
If I open a file in hex-editor I also can see the ASCII values. But I would like get the ONLY the hex values to the other file.
For example:
d5 57 4f ad 30 33 0b 4e 49 a7 05 18 c4 90 66 d8 45 ac 39 3e 7d f1 a8 02 80
14 20 90 6e 20 12 38 0c 65 4a 28 d2 80 72 04 20 a9 4a 82 84 60 6a 0b 25
59 4c 30 c8 69 c0 ec fa 36 ed 3a da b1 9a 82 02 e0 bb 7e 41 87 02 f6 10 34
eb 95 93 63 01 6b 8d e1 d7 43 c3 df 92 5d 8a ed 57 61 4e 36 07 2a d7 56 2b
b5 0e 55 83 b4 76 8c b7 61 77 0e c9 76 0c 81 1b 01 63 0c 8b 73 57 d5 6d 4c
0c c2 0d 52 45 18
How could I make it?

I have a binary tree, and I want to store all information its leaves stores into a binary file and then read it.
What I tried:
A function that reads the tree, and whenever it finds a leaf, it writes in the binary file:
Code:
[...]
if(tree->right == NULL && tree->left == NULL){
fwrite(tree, sizeof(tree), 1, output);
}
[...] a
And in the main function:
Code:
[...]
for(i=0;i<5;i++){
fread(tree, sizeof(tree), 1, output);
printf("This is the leaf number %d", tree->num);
}
[...]
I'm trying to read 5 nodes just to see if its working but it isn't. The output shows the first node of the tree everytime.

So as a learning exercise, I am trying to read and write a binary tree to a file. After googling around, I decided to use a preorder traversal (including null nodes) to write the binary tree to the file. I got stuck trying to read a tree from a file. I can't figure out how to create an unknown number of nodes when they are needed. I could use an array, but that just seems bulky - plus it could run out of space. Is that what I have to do? I've heard of vectors before, but not very much.

if i have 2 variables for which values are given by the user,then,does the information get stored into the file in the name of the variable,or just like packs of information.....if the former is true,how to extract the information of a particular variable alone from the whole file?

I am trying to get the code to read from the txt file one bite at a time and then write this bite into the binary file but i cant seem to get it working.
FILE *fpcust, *fpcustbin; //<<<<<-----point to both sales and customers text files, and the new .bin files for both
char buffer;
int ch;
int ch1;
fpcust = fopen("c:customers.txt", "r"); //<<<<-----pointing to the file
fpcustbin = fopen("c:customers.bin", "wb"); //<<<<<-----pointing to the new binary file, opening in writing binary

need to create a program for the following problem
1.Program takes messages as input at a rate “X” msg/sec, and outputs those messages at “Y” mgs/sec in a file.
2.The peak value of X can be 10msg/sec, and Y can be at max 5msg/sec. System should be designed in such a way that it can handle the peak input rate of 10msg/sec for not beyond 5 minutes.
3.Message contains following fields – unit id, timestamp, temperature.
4.Input data to be read from a file. Output data to be written to a file.
5.For testing design 3 types of profiles –
a.Profile 1 for 10 min – low rate, i.e. X = 4 msg/sec on an average throughout the period.
b.Profile 2 for 10 min – Max rate, i.e. X = 10 msg/sec for 2 min; then a sleep of 2 min, then repeat the same pattern till complete period
c.Profile 3 for 10 min - Max rate, i.e. X = 10 msg/sec for 5 min; then no traffic for next 5 min

I am planning to use this mostly to copy binary files, but why won't this work with text???
input.txt
int main(int argc, char* argv[]) {
// open file
std::ifstream ifs;
ifs.open("./input.txt", std::ios::binary);
[Code] ....
output.txt
310^?z^@^@^@^@^@300367346^A^@
Will this method always work to copy a file?

#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
int main () {
FILE * pFile;
long lSize;
char * buffer;
size_t result;
pFile = fopen ( "myfile.bin" , "rb" );
[Code] .....
How to open binary for read and write? Why the buffer is char * buffer? i mean in binary u cant read chars . How can it be? how the data is represented? just like txt file? What the buffer will contain how to print this buffer???

I'm trying read a binary file. A binary files is continued with bytes(ascci characters). and the 1st position is the position 0(zero).
I'm trying read just some values from ICO file:
- the 3rd value is in 4th-1 position(number of icons); (See the table: [URL] .... )
- the with is the (numberoficons*16) + 4 (the 16 is the Entries structure size) position;
- the height is the (numberoficons*16) + 4 + 4 (the 16 is the Entries structure size) position.
now see the code:
int iconwidth;
int iconheight;
int iconcount;
FILE *iconfile = fopen(filename.c_str(), "rb");//open the file
fseek(iconfile,4-1,SEEK_SET); //put the file in position 6(the position starts from 0)
fread(&iconcount,sizeof(char),2,iconfile);//get 2 blocks with char size(2 bytes).. i'm getting the number of icons
[Code] ....
so what i'm doing wrong with block positions?

Following is the program I wrote it basically takes 9 inputs and then save them into binary file. then print out the data stored in binary data and find inverse of it then print the inverse out. but its stuck in a loop somewhere.
Code:
#include <stdio.h>
int main() {
int a[3][3],i,j;
float determinant=0;
int x;
FILE *fp = fopen ("file.bin", "wb");
[Code] .....

I am trying to read enormous binary files (10-100GB) and parse their contents a bit at a time. As part of the process I need to get the size of the file in bytes. The simple solution
Code: fseek(file,0,SEEK_END);
size=ftell(file);
fails because the file size overflows the long int type returned by ftell. I need a long long int.
Is there a reasonably efficient way to do this? The good news is that it only needs to be done once. I suppose I could read it one character at a time until I hit the end and keep count, but that just seems inelegant...

I have a std::vector of short ints that I need to write to a specific location in a binary file (without using .NET code). To that end, I wrote up this code:
Code:
ofstream fileStream (filePathString, ios::out | ios::binary);
int curPos = 2821;
fileStream.seekp(curPos);
int iter = 0;
while (iter < 1024*1024){
char bytesToWrite[2];
//Low byte
bytesToWrite[0] = LOBYTE(dataVector[iter]);
[Code]...
The code runs without crashing, but when I look at the file afterwards in a hex editor, every byte (even those outside the range I thought I was writing to) are replaced with 00. I suspect I'm missing something in my understanding of file streams. Did I write that code correctly? Seekp does move the pointer over the next byte to be overwritten, yes? Am I getting a memory leak somewhere?

im trying to write an array of struct to a binary the array of struct is filled with data from a text file .
the program gives no errors or warnings but does not write anything at all to the binary file here is the main
Code:
#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <string.h>
struct matches
{
char teamA[20] ;
char teamB[20];
int scoreA ;
int scoreB;

I have a structure :
struct Entrainement{
string muscleCible, nom, unitesObjectif;
double objectifActuel, dernierObjectif, objectifInitial, capaciteInitiale, progression[10];
};
and I want to write in a binary file the structure. The following works perfectly....
(*pointeurFichierEntrainementBin).write((char*)&exercice, sizeof(Entrainement));
except when the string exceed 11 characters. I guess it's because it has to pick a fixed sized for the string? but what if I want to always be able to have string up to 200 character? because now I can't exceed 11..I know writing a string with c_str() works, but I would like to write/read the structure in one shot.

I need to write a program that merges the numbers in two files and writes the results to a third file. The program reads input from two different files and writes the output to a third file. Each input file contains a list of integers in ascending order. After the program is executed, the output file contains the numbers from the two input files in one longer list, also in ascending order. Your program should define a function with three arguments: one for each of the two input file streams and one for the output file stream. The input files should be named numbers1.txt and numbers2.txt, and the output file should be named output.txt.

The Objective Of This Program Is To Create A File To Write Text And Read Back The File Content. To Do That I Have Made Two Function writeFile() To Write And readFile() To Read.The readFile() function works just fine but writeFile() doesn't.
How writeFile() function Works? when writeFile() function Execute It Takes Characters User Type And When Hit Enter(ASC|| 10) It Ask "More?(Y/N)" That Means What User Want? Want To Go Next Line Or End Input?
If "Y" Than Inputs Are Taken From Next Line Else Input Ends.
But The Problem Is When Program Encounters ch==10 It Shows "More?(Y/N)" And Takes Input In cmd variable.If cmd=='Y' I Mean More From Next Line Than It Should Execute Scanf Again To Take ch I Mean User Input.But Its Not!!! Its Always Showing "More?(Y/N)" Again And Again Like A Loop.
Code:
#include <stdio.h>
void writeFile(void);
void readFile(void);
int main(){

I have a .txt file which I want to read from and then write a new text file, this time with sorted lines. It is easy to sort one value, but what about sorting entire lines based on one value?
I want to sort the lines based on the FIRST value.
Example text file contents:
values;data
5.01 100
2.9 342
2.69 43534
10.1 43
6.8 45324
Output: Text file containing
2.69 43534
2.9 342
5.01 100
6.8 45324
10.1 43
It's easy to do this if there was only 1 number on each line, but I do I sort all the lines based on the first number in each line?

this is my read/write functions based the read from the last post! then went nuts with it! used the %19s%*s on the write to the file, solved all the probs on the read side! but any refining on this would be great. This is another program that i started with the forums, and started going my own direction!
Code:
void WriteAccount(int account,char *a[])
{
FILE *fptr;
char Memo[20];
char buff[20];
double Amount;
struct tm *sTm;
}
[code]....
the a[] is a string array with bank account names, and Account is the number on the menu based list.

I'm looking to write a program in C/C++ to traverse a Fasta file formatted like:
>ID and header information
SEQUENCE1
>ID and header information
SEQUENCE2
and so on
in order to find all unique sequences (check if subset of any other sequence) and write unique sequences (and all headers) to an output file.
My approach was:
Prep: Copy all sequences to an array/list at the beginning (more efficient way to do this?)
Grab header, append it to output file, compare sequence for that header to everything in the list/array. If unique, write it under the header, if not, go on.
However, I'm a little unsure as to how to approach reading the lines in properly. I need to read the top line for the header, and then "return?" to the next line to read the sequence. Sometimes the sequence spans more then two lines, so would I use > (from the example above) as a delimiter? If I use C++, I imagine I'd use iostreams to do the reading.

How to read some characters from file, I know we can move a pointer to some position using seekg() & seekp() function, get current position of the pointer through tellg() & tellp() functions. By moving the pointer to appropriate position using seekg(), we can read the whole line using getline() function. But is there any function which read certain characters from the current position of the pointer and write certain characters from current position of the pointer.
