Writing to any location in a file stream

3 New Member
I am doing an image processing project which requires multiple threads to operate and write to an output file stream... Is is possible by some function to read and write specific locations of a file stream or is everything serial ?

You can randomly write to any location in a file stream. You just need to position file file cursor at the correct location. Look up fgetpos() and fsetpos().

I'm sure this is a very simple thing to do, once you know how to do it, but I am having no fun at all trying to write utf-8 strings to a unicode file. Does anyone have a couple of lines of code that - opens a file appropriately for output - writes to this file Thanks very much. Michael Weir

Hello, I am writing out a binary file. I figured that the number "10" is automaticaly converted to "OD OA" instead of "OD". "OD" and "OA" are line feed and carriage return. I know it does that if the file is opened in something else than in binary mode. But in my example below, the file is really opened in binary.

System.IO.StreamWriter Close or Flush method to shut down the computer in such a way that just part of the file is written? or an empty file is written? Also if the Close or Flush is to a streamwriter writing to a network share, is it possible for the network to go down in such a way that the tartet file is only partialy written? or are there some kind of check sums to prevent this.

I've written a web service in VS2005 that uses a COM object to get a file out of another system.

When I attempt to get the file to /WebService/tmpFolder/filename.pdf it fails. If I get the file to My.Computer.FileSystem.SpecialDirectories.Temp it works, but...

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. This is as boiled down as I can make it. Here is my compilation command: g++-12 -std=c++20 -Wnarrowing bit_field.cpp Here is the code in...

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...

Let's talk about the concept of autonomous AI software engineers and no-code agents. These AIs are designed to manage the entire lifecycle of a software development project—planning, coding, testing, and deployment—without human intervention. Imagine an AI that can take a project description, break it down, write the code, debug it, and then launch it, all on its own.... Now, this would greatly impact the work of software developers. The idea...
