Hi
How to read binary files in MAC OS?
FILE *readFile = fopen("filename ", "rb");
then reading it like this:
count=fread(rea dBuffer, sizeof(char), bufferSize, readFile)
This works in windows for all type of files. But in Mac os fread fails
to read from application (.app) and plugins etc. However it succeeds
in reading zip files. [even zip file of a application]
Is it failing becoz in Mac os application are like folders or is there
any other reson?

MacOS .app files arn't like folders - they *are* folders.
You might be better asking here: comp.sys.mac.pr ogrammer.help

And when you do, you should tell them *how* it fails.

Hi all,
I suppose some of you know the program Redmon (type redmon in google, first
result). This neat little tool allows to hook up any functionality to a
printer by putting the file printed to the printer to standard in.
You have to provide yourself the program that does something with that data,
so I thought with some quick c/c++ programming that would be no problem. I
tried dozens of ways of reading the data from stdin or cin,...

Greetings,
I need to read (unformatted text) from stdin up to EOF into a char
buffer; of course I cannot allocate my buffer until I know how much
text is available, and I do not know how much text is available until I
have read it... which seems to imply that multiple reads of the input
stream will be inevitable.
Now I can correctly find the number of characters available by:

Hi folks,
Suppose I have a large (1 GB) text file which I want to read in
reverse. The number of characters I want to read at a time is
insignificant. I'm confused as to how best to do it. Upon browsing
through this group and other sources on the web, it seems that there
are many ways to do it.
Some suggest that simply fseek'ing to 8K bytes before the end of file,
and going backwards is the way. In this case, am I guaranteed best
results...

Hi. I'm having trouble reading some unicode files. Basically, I have to
parse certain files. Some of those files are being input in Japanese,
Chinese etc. The easiest way, I figured, to distinguish between plain
ASCII files I receive and the Unicode ones would be to check if the
first two bytes read 0xFFFE.
But nothing I do seems to be able to do that.
I tried reading it in binary mode and reading two characters in:

I've got to read info from multiple files that will be given to me. I
know the format and what the data is. The thing is each time we run
the program we may be using a differnt number of files, with different
file names each time. So i'm writing into the code to ask the user how
many files, and what their names are. From each we'll read in 2 lines,
then do some math using all of those lines. Then do it again on another
set of lines. ...

Hello,
I am using HadoopStreaming using a BinaryInputStream. What this
basically does is send a stream of bytes ( the java type is : private
byte bytes) to my python program.
I have done a test like this,

Hello folks,
I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed.
