Binary Files - Read Characters Until 0 Found
Sep 23, 2011I am trying to make a program in Visual Basic 2010 that should do the following:
-Open file as binary
-Start with position 57 and read the following characters until a 0 is found, print the whole name
Inside the binary file, all the files' names end with 0 (which should not be printed), example:
B000000.dat0
eft.dat0
G000000000.b70
For the above examples, the names that should be printed are B000000.dat, eft.dat, G000000000.b7 respectively. The code I wrote is below. The problem is that i am not sure how to read the name until the 0 is found since the names are variable in length and so are the extensions(dat, b7). Also some names have 0 in them which makes things difficult.
Using gs As New FileStream(fileName, FileMode.Open)
gs.Position = 57
Using gr As New BinaryReader(gs)
For x As Int16 = 57 To 70
Dim textvar(x) As String
textvar(x) = gr.ReadChar
text3 = textvar(x) & (gr.ReadChar)
Next
End Using
End Using

I don't know how I can read the first 13 characters in a variable like in C ( with char[13] ). My idea is to read the first 13 characters, skip the next 5 characters for change with 5 '-', and next read the rest of the line. I need to read as Binary because it have some special characters.

Read A Record In A Binary File?
Oct 3, 2010To read a record in a binary file in VB^ I would define a type with all the fields specifying strings as STRING * whatever the length of the field was.
For example:
Type Record
Field1 as string *15
Field2 to as string * 20
Field3 as String * 10
field4 as byte(10)
End Type
Dim filerecord as record
I would the open my binary fiel and do a Get#1,, filerecord
The record would be read and all the fielsd would be in place.
Now with the new Structure we cant dimension an array in the Structure And wjhen declaring strings we can't specify the length.
I tried to create structire and use a stream binary reader. and just read afixed number of bytes into the type, The program says it canvert bytes to my fiels.
So how do I do this. Or has Microsoft in their infinite wisdom left no way to do this.

And this is the code i used:

Private Sub Button1_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click

The problems is that it returns something like: "V???????=dQ???!u?1?" What the ____ is that anyway? So in reality it should be like "c3gm322dvf" or something like that.

View 1 RepliesBinary File - Read A Byte[] Array To EOF
Mar 7, 2010Some binary files have application variables at the end if you open it with a text editor you can see these variables. Now when I read these files into the processor memory the program does not work properly, however if I read a file without this it works fine. So how can I read a byte[] array to EOF so that when I pass that byte array into win32 api create-process it will create the process without corrupting the program?

Binary Files And Backgrounworker?
Nov 27, 2009I used backgroundworker to receive file segments from a server, it taking the segments and save them directly to a binary file. the problem is,I using a global variable to store the "FreeFile()" number.when "backgroundworker" receive "START" it do F = FreeFile()
when it receive "Segment", it should append to that file, but the problem is ... backgroundworker no more recognize the file (which its identifier saved in global variable F) and telling "Bad File"?!
whats the soultion?I think about opening the file and close it each time (not leave the connection to the file available). But I didn't figure out how to append to Binary files, It always replace their contents. and If I use "Append" option it corrupt the file!
Merge Two PDF / Binary Files?
Oct 19, 2010For some reason the last PDF file to be written to the "final document" is the only PDF File that is visible when the "final document" is open. However, all of the bytes are accounted for in the file size...so for example: file1 = 60 bytes and file2 = 49 bytes. The final document has 109 bytes but only contains file2 when viewed in the pdf viewer.

Read 1056 Binary Bits From Serial Port
Aug 8, 2009I am trying to read the data from a device on a serial port. I connect just fine and can receive data fine in text mode but not in binary mode. I am using VB.NET express. I am at the point in my code where I know that the device is sending 1056 binary bytes of data. How do I go about storing this is a binary array? After I have the array stored (which I dont yet) I need to go through the array and convert the binary to integers. They are 2byte integers in the format: 8bit MSB|8 bit LSB.
