How to wirte a char to a specified location in a txt file?

Hi,Everybody:
In EVB(or VB6), WriteFile() function starts writing data
to the file at the position indicated by the file pointer.
After the write operation has been completed, the file
pointer is adjusted by the number of bytes actually
written. But in VB.net which function can replace it? May
i use System.IO.FileS tream.Seek locate the location and
then use System.IO.strea mwriter to write char to txt file?

FS = New IO.FileStream(w orkDir & "\" & appInputFile,
IO.FileMode.Cre ate, IO.FileAccess.W rite)

sw = New IO.StreamWriter (FS)

FS.Seek((Curren tPoint - 1) *
FixedLen,IO.See kOrigin.Current )

sw.Write(string )

Why not test it on your own?

I've noticed a few threads (full of sound and fury, signifying nothing) here recently about allocation of large memory blocks. I'm about to start on a personal pet project where I'll be using memchr(), memcmp(), memmove() a lot. Is there an ANSI C maximium size for character arrays which are guaranteed to succeed, assuming the machine has sufficient memory? And will the memxxx() functions work with that size? I'm looking at hopefully...

(again :)) Hello everyone. I'll ask this even at risk of being accused of not researching adequately. My question (before longer reasoning) is: How does declaring (or defining, whatever) a variable **var make it an array of pointers? I realize that 'char **var' is a pointer to a pointer of type char (I hope). And I realize that with var, var is actually a memory address (or at

I have a string object that I need to convert into an unmanged char * to be used by several unmnaged 3rd party functions.

One example I tried was: char *inifile; inifile = static_cast <char*> (Marshal::StringToHGlobalAuto (Profname)); It gave following compile...

Dear Brothers, I am using a 'text file location' at my code to read the file contents- which is working fine in my local server. The web contents/php files and the specified txt file are at the same location at my own server. $fc = file ('./sitedb.txt'); Now I want to read the txt file from another ftp server (Exaple: ftp://10.10.10.100/File/sitedb.txt'). For this purpose, I changed the code location as below:

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...
