Help for Binary File Handling

1 New Member
Hi,

I want to generate a data file that is to be read by a 'C' program. But I got in dilemma after checking the file generated by the following program.

Expand|Select|Wrap|Line Numbers
  1. $buffer = "";
  2.  
  3. $path = "C:/Documents and Settings";
  4. $bfile = "$path/binary.dat";
  5.  
  6. open(FILE, "> $bfile") || die("Can't open $hfile");
  7.  
  8. binmode FILE;
  9.  
  10. $add = 0x00103d08;
  11. $fld_beg = 0;
  12. $fld_end = 31;
  13. $val = 0xffffffff;
  14.  
  15. @struc = ($add,$fld_beg,$fld_end,$val);
  16. close(FILE);
  17.  

With the same data I wrote a program in 'C' to see the outputs whether they are same when compared with perl outputs. Unfortunately both are different.

Can some one help me to create a binary data file which should be same as if it is generated by a C program.

Thanks in advance.

Hello ppl, I'm having difficulties to accomplish some simple chores with binary data. I'm having a string (?) which I received via an HTTP transactions which is a binary file. Problem is the webserver I'm communicating with injected a \x0D before every \x0A, and I need to remove those 0x0D characters from my buffer before saving it to disk.

Hi all, AFAIK it is possible for columns to be very large, up to about 2 GB. Are there any hints or experiences about storing binary data (jpg-images, pdf-documents) in PostgrreSQL with or without the complicated lo-stuff? Of course it's in many cases a good approach to store those files simply in the file system but there's always a risk of running out of sync (filesystem and tables), e.g. by deleting files and not deleting the table...

Hi, how can i read input from a data file which contains binary or hex values.

Hi, everyone. I got a question. How can I identify whether a file is a binary file or an ascii text file? For instance, I wrote a piece of code and saved as "Test.c". I knew it was an ascii text file. Then after compilation, I got a "Test" file and it was a binary executable file. The problem is, I know the type of those two files in my mind because I executed the process of compilation, but how can I make the computer know the type of a...

Hello all, I'm working on writing my own streambuf classes (to use in my custom ostream/isteam classes that will handle reading/writing data to a mmap'd file). When reading from the mmap file, I essentially have a char buffer in my streambuf class, that I'm registering with setp(). on an overflow() call, I simply copy the contents of the buffer into the mmap'd file via memcpy().

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.
