I'm trying to read a char* from a binary file. The data is written to the file correctly, but when I read it back, my string is appended with gibberish. Here's a snippit:
char* load_string(FILE* f)
{
size_t len;
char* str = NULL;
fread(&len, sizeof(size_t), 1, f);
if (len)
{
str=(char*)malloc(len);
fread(str, sizeof(char), len, f);
}
else
{
str=NULL;
}
return str;
}
And here is how I am using the function:
fopen_s(&f, "hi.dat", "rb");
if (f)
{
szLoad = load_string(f);
fclose(f);
}
I'm pretty sure it's a problem with malloc() allocating too much memory, because when I do a strlen(str) it returns as longer than expected, even though len is correctly interpreted from the file.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

You need to terminate the string with a null char
malloc the length plus one byte for the '\0'
after you have read the string from the file insert a '\0' at the end of the buffer

You might need an extra byte for a NULL otherwise string library functions will just keep going and going and ....

i have used following four functions for motion detection part only:
1)AdjustMotionDetectPrecision()
2)SetupMotionDetection()
3)StartMotionDetection()
4)MotionAnalyzer()
using these four functions,motion detected has started.
but i dnt knw how to start recording????
i m sending u some code :
here it is::::
if(frameType > 0)
{
if(frameType == PktSysHeader)
{
memcpy(FileHeader[channelNum], DataBuf, Length);
FileHeaderLen = Length;
}
if(frameType == PktIFrames || frameType ==PktSubIFrames)
{
status = 1;
}
else
{
status = 0;
}
if(frameType == PktMotionDetection)
{
int result[4];
if(bOverlayMode)
{
hkdlg->m_VideoWin.DrawVectEx(channelNum, (char *)DataBuf);
}
else
{
hkdlg->m_bMoving[channelNum] = TRUE;
memcpy(motionData[channelNum],(char*)DataBuf,Length);
}
MotionAnalyzer(ChannelHandle[channelNum],(char*)DataBuf,15,result);
if((result[0] + result[1] + result[2] + result[3]))
{
if (channelNum ==0)
TRACE("!!!!!!!CH=%d motion detect result is %d %d %d %d\n",channelNum,result[0],\
result[1],result[2],result[3]);
//The function Trigger() do the following operation: write the video&audio data which are before the motion frame to file
if(!hkdlg->baftermotion[channelNum])
alarmFile[channelNum].Trigger(gFileHandle[channelNum]);
//when the motion frame returns,clear ualreadywriteframes[channelNum] and set it as 0 ,be ready for writing the video&audio data after motion
hkdlg->ualreadywriteframes[channelNum]=0;
hkdlg->baftermotion[channelNum]=TRUE;
}
return 0;
}
if(frameType == PktOrigImage)
{
return 0;
}
In this code should i start recording after motionanalyser() function?????????????

Try SetRedraw(FALSE) before loading and SetRedraw() after the loading.
Try it with "this" and the picturebox.
You can also try to use LockWindowUpdate and UnlockWindowUpdate
I hope it helps

Hello,
How to import text file and covert to table(new design) in row by row and column by column based on field name.

Hi,
If your text files have the TAB separeted values then opening it with the Excel will get it converted into excel sheet column wise.
Also, you can read the text fiel and use Excel APIs to get the excel sheet created. The main objects Excel.Application, Workbook etc should be used to create a excel sheet.

Hi,
another option is the ";" format, write the file with ".csv" and import it in Excel saying that he semicolons ";" are like TABS. We use it in that way to have in excell what we want to edit manually from IFix DB

Do you know there are things called "Search Engines"? There is a real good one for the NET called Google and CP has it's own Search engine as well as categorized listings of Articles.

Have you ever heard of a thing called "Manners"? Here I'll search it for you:
Wikipedia:
In sociology, manners are the unenforced standards of conduct which show the actor to be cultured, polite, and refined. They are like laws in that they codify or set a standard for human behavior, but they are unlike laws in that there is no formal system for punishing transgressions. They are a kind of norm.
Thus a simple question to make my life a bit easier ... lets just say I thought someone could help.
But thanks for your reply.

 I am, I just didn't feel like spending the time explaining to the twit that good manners would include not asking for help before you make an effort yourself.

If you are using MFC, are you looking something beyond those standard database classes provided, such as CDatabase, CDaoDatabase, etc.,? I have been using the CDatabase class for quite a while, and it serves my purpose.

Thanks for the reply brahmma,
Well actually I want to make use of it in a WIN32 Console application or dll. But as led mike mentioned, I didn't spend a lot of time searching for something I wanted. Other wise I will make use of the ODBC API.
Many thanks.
