C :: Stop Write Operation If File Size Has Reached 1GB?
Dec 23, 2013
A process is writing data continuously to a file . I need to stop the write operation if the file size has reached 1GB. Is there any way to check file size when it is opened for the write operation.
I could do the same using scripts. Can this be done using C Programming ?
I'm doing a Text-based RPG game and it will include some checkpoints, on those checkpoints the game will save the progress, so I need to write all my variables to a text file and then read them all when the player loads the game.
Some of my variables, like enemyNames, dont have any determined size, they're like this: "int enemyNames[];"
So how do I write an array to a text file without determining a size?
And how do I read them when the player loads the game?
I wrote a code to read a specific amount of data from file until terminating set is reached. however the code does what its supposed to correctly until it reaches the 5th loop it justs stops responding. I've checked the reading file and all elements are correct in the file.
Code: int main(void){ FILE *file1; FILE *file2; FILE *file3;
I am trying to read a file line by line and then do something with the informations, so my method looks like this:
Code: void open_file(char *link) { FILE *file = fopen(link, "r"); if (file == NULL) { fprintf(stderr, "Could not open file. "); exit(EXIT_FAILURE);
[Code] ....
1) The first complain of valgrind is at the line where I use fgets and its telling me (invalid write of size x), but I have allocated my line to 56000 and the read line is shorter, why is there a write size error then :S?
2) at the line where I realloc where I try to shrink the space he's telling me: Address .... is 0 bytes inside a block of size 56000, But I know i need only this space so why is there a write over space error :S??
I'm working on coding a game of pong that allows players to play until one reaches a score of 10. Once the winning score is reached I want to display a "Game Over" message stating which player won. The game works perfectly except for stopping when the winning score is reached.
I am using visual studio 2012.....in below code i m writing data in to a test.txt file but i dont know with which key file stop accepting char...i tried ctrl+z and ctrl+d but not working ....
As, it can be seen from the above structure that whitespaces are not same everytime. So, to deal with this situation, i am using boost library to remove all whitespaces from the line which is being read and then try to find the name of gate and its input. My code is given below which is able to correctly find the gate names and its first input...but my code is not able to find the second, third and so on input names.
I am interested in creating a file of a given size and then randomly accessing the file to populate it. Is there a way to quickly create, for instance, a 4 GByte file in C++, initially populated with garbage?
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:
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(){
how do i decompress an input file and write the results into an output file?
also my do while loop is supposed to keep going unless the user selects the option to exit the program, instead it exits after finishing ay of the options.
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.
and then use that information to determine their letter grade and write that information to a .txt file. I have been able to successfully pass that information to a function to determine their letter grade and have been able to successfully compute their letter grade. However, I can get this information to successfully post within the *computeGrade () function. Yet, I don't know how to pass this information back to the main() on a student by student basis so that I can open a new .txt file and write just their name and letter grade to it.
Another issue I'm having is when it comes to computing the averages of the class. Each score is either a quiz (there are 4), a midterm (there are 2) or a final (there is 1). I'm a little stuck on how to pass say all of the quiz 1 grades as one entity to the function averagesminmax(). Is there a way to compile each of the grades for a specific quiz or midterm as one array and pass that to the function to then do the computation. Also we need the min and max so again from compiling the grades of a particular quiz or exam together as one.
Here's the code that I have so far.
#include <stdio.h> #include <stdlib.h> #include <math.h> const char *computeGrade(); int averagesminmax(); int main() { char fName[20]; char lName[20];
[code]....
Do I need to re-read the input file and assign them to different variables?
Here's a sample of the output so far:
Enter input .txt file name Graded Thui Bhu, 91, A Ariana B. Smith, 96, A Emily Gonzales, 83, B Jennifer L, 89, B Maria Jones, 67, D Bill Gates, 55, F Escobar Morris, 78, C Anne Latner, 88, B Program ended with exit code: 0
Also in my output file, the only thing that it prints will be the first name of whatever the last student in the input file list is.
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
im supposed to create a program that reads in a list of integers from the terminal and writes the negative numbers to one file and the positive numbers to another file.
i got most of it doen but for some reason its not writting the negative numbers. on what im doing wrong?
#include <iostream> #include <fstream> #include <string> using namespace std; int main(){ int pos_num = 0; int neg_num = 0; int positive_numbers = pos_num % 5;
I've been looking into the file structure of BMP images and everything I'm reading says that the 4 bytes following the signature are designated as the filesize of the bmp file... It's always zero for me regardless of the BMP file. The signature is always correct though.
I finally accomplished what I'd asked for earlier.
I'm able to input data from txt file to c++ array.
the Text file contains around 60,000 lines "numbers" to be loaded into a c++ array to calculate some stuff.
I'm able to load 60,000 lines "txt file size 1.1MB" no problem, but sometimes when I try to load more lines "from a file around 1.4MB", the process terminates and gives me an error message "n.exe has stopped working, Windows is checking a solution to this problem" and Code::Block shows error "Process terminated with status -1073741819 "
comparing with screen size the height is bigger but lenght is smaller. I don't understand.
I can understand that different printers process the fonts in different way and then to have different lenghts. That's not the problem. The problem is I need to simulate in screen the same behaviour i will have on printer because these texts are being aligned in the document, and I don't want to see that the text si aligned different in text than in paper.
What can I do to render the text on screen with the same size I will have on the printer? Print preview is doing it. Should I change the font parameters? is something related with pixels per inch?
I am just trying to get a code going for a mock test and to get use to the getline and IF operations, but it seems I have ran into an issue[URL] is a link to the code I have written, and I can use getline to give a value to my variable, but it seems like it gets lost once I try to use the IF function. Am I not using the right variable type?
I was wonder if I can make 2 different size structures in a file. I wrote a code but It's apart of my school project and I havent compiled it yet, so Im just wondering will this work?
Code: if((stsPtr = fopen("status.dat", "rb")) == NULL){ prinft("File could not be created/opened. "); Error();
I am trying to create an array with the size of the first value of one file wich is the same of the first line because the first line only have one value. Here is how i am trying to do it ...
FILE * fich; int test; fich=fopen(nome_ficheiro,"r"); fscanf_s(fich,"%d",&test); int np=test; No*aux=primeiro;
