AbhiSimply print your values separated by the '|' pipe symbol; I don't see the problem.

Write output to binary file in C/C++?

How can I write output to a file in binary format instead of ascii?
Or... if I am using a buffer.. to write a buffer to binary format instead of ascii?
I am writing a lot of data to a text file and I would like to reduce the size by writing it all into a binary file instead of ascii?

Basic I/O?
char buffer[100];
// C++ style
ofstream file;
file.open ("data.bin", ios::out | ios::binary);
file.write(buffer, sizeof buffer);
/* C style */
FILE* file2 = fopen("data2.bin", "wb");
fwrite(buffer, sizeof buffer, 1, file2);
A lot of people prefer the old C style functions for binary i/o even in C++ (and iostream for formatted i/o). Writing and readong more complex structures requires some castin, in C++ usually done with reinterpret_cast<char*>(someStructure).

How to write '\n' in text file instead of newline

Hello Everyone,
I am trying to write 'C:\DOCUME~1\nXXX\LOCALS~1\Temp' in a bat file using client_text_io but *'\n'* in the path is taken as a new line character and the path is broken into two lines and written to the file. Hence my bat file doesnt work. I would need to write '\n' in the file as there are many reports which has '\n' in the output. Please provide a solution for writing '\n' in the file without getting it converted to a new line.
DECLARE
out_file client_text_io.file_type;
BEGIN
:GLOBAL.TEMPDRIVE :=client_win_api_environment.get_environment_string('TEMP'); --output is 'C:\DOCUME~1\nXXX\LOCALS~1\Temp'
out_file := client_Text_IO.fopen(:GLOBAL.TEMPDRIVE||'\chkdirz.bat', 'w');
client_Text_IO.PutF(out_file,'chdir '||:GLOBAL.TEMPDRIVE||'\ \n');
client_Text_IO.PutF(out_file,'if EXIST '||:GLOBAL.TEMPDRIVE||'\EXFOL\ null goto batend \n');
client_Text_IO.PutF(out_file,'mkdir '||:GLOBAL.TEMPDRIVE||'\EXFOL \n');
client_Text_IO.PutF(out_file,':batend \n');
client_Text_IO.fclose(out_file);
synchronize;
CLIENT_host('cmd.exe /c '||:GLOBAL.TEMPDRIVE||'\chkdirz.bat',NO_SCREEN);
END;

When you want to print out an escape character in java (java is doing the work in client_text_io ), you'd need to escape it.
client_text_io.put_line(out_file, replace('your_path', '\','\\'));cheersI tried replacing \ with double slash but it just printed double slash in the bat file. again the path was broken into two lines.

How to write a CLOB to file using UTF-8

I'm new to java and I have the following problem.
I need to write a CLOB to file using the UTF-8 characterset (I'm generating an xml file). My database characterset is WE8ISO8859P15.
I've tried the code below but the resulting output fails validation in an xml editor due to an 'invalid character' error :
create or replace
and compile
java source named "ClobUtil"
as
import java.io.*;
import java.lang.*;
import java.sql.*;
import java.util.*;
import oracle.jdbc.driver.*;
import oracle.sql.*;
public class ClobUtil {
public static void save(CLOB clob, String filename) throws Exception
Connection conn = DriverManager.getConnection("jdbc:oracle:kprb:");
conn.setAutoCommit(false);
InputStream is = clob.getCharacterStream();
FileOutputStream os = new FileOutputStream(filename);
int size = clob.getChunkSize();
byte buffer[] = new byte[size];
int length;
while ((length = is.read(buffer, 0, size)) != -1) {
os.write(buffer, 0, length);
is.close();
os.close();
conn.close();
I see that the getCharacterStream() method returns a Unicode character stream but how do I output this to file ??
Thanks in advance

File file = new File( "myfile.utf8" );
FileOutputStream fos = new FileOutputStream( file );
OutputStreamWriter osw = new
OutputStreamWriter( fos, "UTF8" );
Writer w = new BufferedWriter( osw );
PrintWriter out = new PrintWriter( w );
Or whatever you need. Note that this merely allows you to specify the encoding to be used in the output file, it does convert the encoding for you. I think in your case this will work since you already know the output stream will not contain the full range of UTF8 characters anyway.

String formatting with Write-Output

I have a FileInfo object that I want to print the full file name member value.
I tried this:
Write-Output "Scanning $file.FullName..."
However that just prints out:
"Scanning c:\foo.txt.FullName..."
What is the proper way to format the FileInfo.FullName using Write-Output (In C#, I would use String.Format)?
thanks

Wrap $file.FullName in $(), such as $($file.FullName). Read more by searching for the subexpression operator.

How to write newline character to file using bytes along with content

Hi All,
I need to write headers into the file using byte[]. I am creating the strings of header which will form the different rows in the file. I am new to java and would like to know how to embed new line character so that when the byte[] is written to file headers come in different rows.
like
hrd1:abcd
hdr2:1234
when i embed \n and \r in string and do getBytes() and write it to file, some boxes are written in the file and everything comes into single line.
Please advice me the correct way .
Thanks in advance.
Cheers!!
Puneet

not sure about it, but i was always told that "\r\n" meant "new line" on "lots of documents" whereas "\n" only or "\r" only were meaningless on some type of documents

READ THE PIPE DELIMITER FILE

Hi guys,
I am uploading the data from a file which is in the application server and in pipe delimiter format.
This file in the format like .... let us take 100 records among those one record is header, 98 data records and one trailer record. These are seperated by the record locater like header with 0, data record with 1 and trailer with 9.
So what i am doing is uploading that file first of all into one internal table I_ARFILE, then splitting the data at pipe into 3 different internal tables. In the mean time I am doing the validations also for the number of records...
like there should not be more than one header, and one trailer........

In this code something wrong like....
I have to modify this code so that i can split the file based on the record indicator to different internal tables.
if you see my code I am going wrong after i split the data into header internal table... did the validations then I put the else condition and split the same record again into 2nd internal table. But I have to take the second record once the first one is filled..........
Can any one guide me how to do that plz...... I am bit confused with this

Translating Microsoft Works 4.5 Database Files to Appleworks 6 format

Hi,
Having recently moved to Mac from Windows I am trying to transfer files from my old machine to my Mac mini. As I have thousands of files in Window format that I hope to use on my Mac I spent the money to purchase a copy of MacLinkPlus V. 15.
Happily when I attempted to translate word processing files created in Word 97 to Appleworks 6.2.9 all went well. But when I attempted to translate database files created in Microsoft Works 4.5 I ran into trouble!
To whit, after "adding" the MS Works database file to MacLink Plus I click on translate but when the translation settings window open there is no AppleWorks 6 database file format to select. I tried selecting AppleWorks 2.1, 3.0 but after the translation is done there is just a bunch of disorganized text in the destination file.
Given that the program claims to support MS Works 4.5 I was at a loss as to why this was happening so I contacted the MacLinkPlus help desk to find out what I should do. Initially they said that MacLinkPlus does not support Microsoft Works 4.5 file translation. But when I checked the link they supplied to supported formats Microsoft Works 4.5 database files were clearly shown as being fully supported.
When I pointed this out to them they next asked if I was sure I had Appleworks on my computer..... What can one say to a question like that, especially when it is asked in broken English?
Does anyone out there have any idea what is going on here? Is there a way to get MacLinkPlus to do what the company says it will do, i.e. translate my Microsoft Works database files to Appleworks 6 format? If not, what would folks suggest as a work around method of getting these database files into the Appleworks 6 database?
Thanks,
Winston
PS For anyone interested in the quality of support at MacLinkPlus I offer the following message I recieved from their Help Desk:
"MacLinkPlus only support AppleWorks 6 for word processing or spreadsheet files. Because you are dealing with a database file you are only able to choose from those formats. To see the full list of file formats that MacLinkPlus supports, please view this page:"
http://www.dataviz.com/products/maclinkplus/mlp_xlators.html
Note: When I clicked on the above link this is what I found:
DOS and Windows Database Formats
ClarisWorks 1.0, 3.x, 4.0
Comma Separated Values (Write only)
dBase (DBF) II, III, IV
FoxBASE/FoxPro
MS Works for Windows 2.0, 3.0, 4.5, 95
Tab Text (Write only)
WordPerfect Works 2.0

Thanks for the tips I guess that I will try to export the database files in tab delimited format and paste them into a database that I create in Appleworks 6. I can't say that I am looking forward to this, but it would appear I have no choice.
At this point in time I would have to say that my foray into the Mac World has been a most unpleasant experience. In truth when you add this difficulty to the many others I've had with my Mac I have had more computer problems in the past 3 months than in the prior 8 years with Windows.
By the way, I heard back from MacLinkPlus today and they had this to say:
Hi Winston,
The reason you don't have AppleWorks 6 listed as an option in MacLinkPlus, is because when it comes to Databases, MaclinkPlus only supports these formats:
AppleWorks 5.0
AppleWorks 6.0 (Read Only)
ClarisWorks 1.0, 2.x, 3.0, 4.0, 5.0
Excel 2.0, 3.0, 4.0, 5.0, 98, 2001, X, 2004
MS Works 2.0, 3.0, 4.0
SYLK (Read Only)
AppleWorks (Apple II) 2.1, 3.0
So, it is not going to give you AppleWorks 6 as an option because when Dealing with Database files, AppleWorks 6 isnot supported.
So what you can do, is choose either AppleWorks 2 or 3, convert the file.
Then try to use AppleWorks 6 to open it with.
AppleWorks 6 may not recognize such an old file though.
Here is my reply:
Dear Annya,
I must admit that I am still confused regarding all this. In your most recent e-mail you say that MacLinkPlus does not recognise Microsoft Works 4.5 database files but on your website it says that it does.
I tried your work around and Appleworks 6 refused to open the database file translated into Appleworks 2, 3 so it would now appear that I am not going to be able to use MacLinkPlus to translate the files.
While your offer for a refund on the MacLinkPlus was appreciated, I am out a great deal more than the purchase price of MacLinkPlus because of this. Simply put I would never have purchased my Mac mini computer in the first place if my visit to your website had not left me confident that your software would allow me access to my old database files.
To say that I am dissappointed would be quite an understatement and I certainly hope that your company rewrites the material on its own website in an effort to make clear that MacLinkPlus can not translate Microsoft Works database files.
In the mean time, know anybody looking for an almost brand new MacIntosh computer?
With regrets,
Winston

Need example with write to DATA log file programmatically?

Hi all,
I would like to request for an example of writing a datalog (*.DAT) file which could do this.
Datalog file.
NAME: AGE: SEX: (header)
john 16 M (data)
marie 55 F
Dolah 34 M
The program can also let me to add in new data and then store in the same file.dat. The data (hopefully) can be written to the bottom of the last saved entry of data. (eg. after the row Dolah).
I need to do this so that I can open and read back the datalog file and use the data for other purpose.
Please help,
juni

You've got some examples in Fundamentals>File Input and Output but one of the easiest things to do is to modify Write Strings to Spreadsheet File.vi to write strings as detailed at the bottom of the diagram and then save it to a different place and with a different name.

Create and write form output to text file

HI am pretty new to this and have a prob.
I have 10 fields in my form submitting which i need to create and write the form field values into an xml fil..this file is further used for other read write transactions.
Can somebody help creating and writing data into the text file with code (if u have it handy).
Thanks for the help in anticipation

File f = new File("/path/to/output.txt");
BufferedWriter bw = new BufferedWriter(new FileWriter(f));
String inputData = null;
while(true){
inputData = //whatever data you need
bw.write(inputData);
bw.flush();
bw.close();
f.close;
// All this should be in a try{}catch(IOException ioe){}

Java.io.File and output.write to newly created file

I'm using output.write(""); in conjunction with java.io.File to create a file with field data from a form submit. The file gets created and includes anything I add between the quotes rather then searching for it's value. My question is what is the syntax for putting <%= request.getParameters("") %> in the output.write brackets. I've been unsuccessful thus far so it must be my syntax.
This works:
try {
File outputFile = new File("/tmp/filename");
outputFile.createNewFile();
FileWriter output = new FileWriter(outputFile);
output.write("text in the file");
output.close();
} catch (IOException e) {
System.out.println("Caught IOException: " + e.getMessage());
// or.....
System.err.println("Caught IOException: " + e.getMessage());
%>
I need to include the below and have the file represent <HTML> for redisplay.
<html>
<title><%= request.getParameter("car") %>, <%= request.getParameter("color") %></title>
Car Model: <%= request.getParameter("carMod") %> 
Car Color: <%= request.getParameter("carColor") %> 
Can I wrap this somehow or do I need to define the field data another way?
tks

1)Do you want "<%= request.getParameter("car") %>" written exactly as that to the file, or 2)do you want to get the value of request.getParameter("car") and write it to the output?
If 1):
output.write("<title><%= request.getParameter(\"car\") %>,"+
" <%= request.getParameter(\"color\") %></title>");else if 2):
output.write("<title>"+ request.getParameter("car") +", "+
request.getParameter("color")+"</title>");
