I can access a physical device to read a specific sector in a USB hard drive. But my question is how can I Write to a specific sector? Lets say I want to replace what is in a specific sector of a hard drive with a new data.
View 6 RepliesI want to replace what is in a specific sector with value inside a buffer(dummy value). This code will read what is inside a specific sector. To make sure it works it display what is inside the sector and it displays the chosen dummy value. (the two cout's in main)
What I want to do is to replace the dummy value with what is inside the specific sector. So if the dummy value is '0', I want to replace what is in sector 285 with '0'.
#include <windows.h>
#include <stdio.h>
#include <iostream>
#include <iomanip>
using namespace std;
#define FILE_SHARE_VALID_FLAGS 0x00000007
#define BUFFER_SIZE 512

I am trying to write a to a specific sector in a flash drive. The problem is that it will only allow me to write to sectors 0 to 15. When I try sector 16 or higher nothing happens, but in sector 0 to 15 is is working fine.
#define BUFFER_SIZE 512
int main(void) {
FILE *volume;
int k = 0;
long long sector = 0;
char buf[BUFFER_SIZE] = {0};

Writing an if statement where the date has to be greater then 1/1/1880?
class Movie {
private DateTime m_ReleaseDate = DateTime.MinValue;
public DateTime ReleaseDate {
get { return m_ReleaseDate; }
set {
if (value > DateTime.FromOADate("1/1/1880")) {
m_ReleaseDate = value;
} } } }
I created a program that will create a file and print a list on it. Here is the code for my program:
Code:
int controlvalue(void) {FILE *controlvalue;
controlvalue = fopen("something.txt", "a+");
/* Series of fprintfs */
fclose (controlvalue);
return 1;}
Here is an example list created by my program:
Code:
[Gifts]Candy=45
Chocolate=32
Toy=128
Robot=754
Doll=1492
Star=21
Phone=72
Skateboard=87
Frame=314
Days=365
Perfume=421
I want to get the value of "Skateboard" on file. So I need to read 9 lines. On the 9th line, the gets() loop will stop. But, what if I only want to get the value of "Skateboard" as integer (87) and not a string? Also, is it possible to scan the value of Skateboard if it's located on a different (or unknown) line?

Inside of my studentinfo.txt file
Code:
Jnh Has 2353325 23 56 72 34 67 22 46 42 5 23 56 23
Daniel Laurent 6744590 10 20 30 40 50 60 70 80 90 100 40 50
This code is working totally fine. Right now, I'm trying to update a specific data from the student info. Let's say I'm trying to update my student number of Daniel. So, in this case, I want to replace 6744590 to some other student number. I think I have to use fseek() or rewind() and use fputs() but, I don't know how I should decide where to look.
I'm making a binary file that has 100 "empty spaces", and then I want to rewrite specific place with info, however it always writes the info at the end of the file, no matter what I try to get position before I call write() it tells me correct position...

I created a dataset that contains an empty dataTable that has several columns , and then I created a new report that is linked to this datatable using the report wizard. In my form there is a button when clicked should fill the datatable mentioned above ( I checked if it is being filled by displaying its content in a dataGridView and by firing a messagebox that is triggered when 'datatable.rows.count > 0' ).
The reason that the datatable is initially empty is that it depends on some conditions that may alter the query used to fill it.
But finally when I load the form that has the report viewer it only has the names of the columns of the datatable and no contents. What's wrong ?
Here's my code so far:
Code:
#include <iostream>
#include <iomanip>
using namespace std;
int main() {
int dayNumber = 1;
[Code] ....
The code, when run, prompts the user to input an integer like this:
Code:
Day 1
Andy :>12
Bill :>7
Charlie :>15
Day 2
Andy :>5
Bill :>25
Charlie :>14
.
.
.
etc.
Ok, so the code prompts the user to enter an integer for each of the 3 persons and then increments the "Day" and so on... When the user enters a negative value (-1, -2, etc.), the loop is broken and the program ends. Alright, everything is hunky-dory so far. 2 things which I can't figure out.
1. when the user doesn't enter anything and just hits return, the cursor drops a line and is still awaiting an input but doesn't show the prompt "Andy :>", for example. How can I get it to repeat the last prompt when the user doesn't enter anything? Like:
Code:
Day 1
Andy :>
Andy :>
Andy :>12
Bill :>25
Charlie :>15
.
.
etc.
2. When the user enters a letter or a special character, the program blows up. How can I correct this?
I've tried changing the data type for the variable used for the input, tried using getline, get, etc. With my current beginner knowledge, I'm missing something. So how can I get this to work?
The program should allow only integers to be entered, while allowing a negative number to trigger the loop to break or the program to end, and while re-prompting the last person if the user entered an invalid input.
I want to access sata hard drive(eg. D drive) at sector level using C programming.I want to read the values stored in the memory locations.

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 was given an assignment to create a simple program for traffic control. How should i output data at a specific time, for e.g a driver approaches an intersection, the yellow light will flash indicating that he needs to slow down and then the red light to stop before taking a route. is there any function i can use to output red light a few seconds after yellow light.

Procedure to Compare 2 Strings with the following criteria
coding of the following function -
I have absolutely no clue where to start -
Given the following sets of numbers -
1154 1179 2154 2554 2484 2144 4515 1144 1517 4815 1481
Given the Index number of 1154
I want to search the numbers for the Index number of 1154
The search will return a True if I can find 3 or 4 same digits between the Index number and the 8 numbers
The search also have the following criteria -
meaning that -
1154 when compared to 1154 == true
1154 when compared to 1179 == false
1154 when compared to 2154 == true
1154 when compared to 2554 == false
1154 when compared to 2484 == false
1154 when compared to 2144 == false
1154 when compared to 4515 == true
1154 when compared to 1144 == true
1154 when compared to 1517 == true
1154 when compared to 4815 == true
1154 when compared to 1481 == true
the index number can also be of type - 1234, 1123, 1112, 1111

Write a program that reads data from a file (use the attached data file). These data are a student name and 3 test scores. The program should calculate the average of the 3 test scores, and display the name, 3 test scores, and the average to the monitor.
Useful tips:
a) Include the following header files: iostream, fstream, iomanip, and string
b) The name of the data file is “datafile.txt”, you need to save the file in the same folder of the source file.
c) use the manipulators (setw, setprecision, setfill, showpoint, fixed) to format the average with 1 digits after decimal point as following.
d) Use character ‘ ’ for tab.

The Problem You are part of a company writing a spreadsheet program. As you know, spreadsheets can be sorted on any column. You're part of the project is to write one binary tree function to sort the data [Hint: use different fields when inserting nodes in the tree.] and a second function to list it in either an ascending or descending sequence. [Note: Each of these functions may actually need to be a set of related functions.]
For sample data you will have a disk file containing information about Shakespeare's plays. Your first function should create a tree based on the sort selected by the user and the second function to display the data in the sequence selected by the user. Regardless of the column being sorted, data in individual records always be displayed in the same line of the output.
Input : Each record will contain the following information: First Performed 9 characters Printed 5 characters Title 26 characters Type 7 characters
Output : Tabular output should be aligned in columns with two spaces between each. All columns should have headings. It should be sorted on the column specified by the user.
Example (This sample data provided so you can test your program.) If the data is:
1595-96 1600 A Midsummer Night's Dream Comedy
1594-95 1623 Two Gentlemen of Verona Comedy
1596-97 1623 King John History
1597-98 1598 Henry IV, Part 1 History

I am doing a project which I have to read, write and erase data from a NorFlash Memory. Then, I have to compare those data files in order to find errors.
Besides, I would like to know which is the best way to TEST errors in this kind of memories.
I am using NetBeans 7.3.1 for writting the code and Cygwin running on Windows XP Virtual Machine. The Memory Flash (S29JL064J 64 Megabit) is incorporated on an external board which is connected to an adapter board (using HDMI cable). This adapter is connected to the Laptop (using an USB).
