Read And Write A Binary File?

Dim bytes() as Byte
..and then write that byte array back into a new file?
I need it as a byte array to do some processing in between.
I'm currently using:
To read

Dim numBytes As Long = fInfo.Length
Dim fsAs New FileStream(dataPath, FileMode.Open, FileAccess.Read)

Rgb - Read And Write To A File In Binary
Jan 29, 2009Im trying to read and write to a file in binary.to give an example of what im trying to do i have posted a picture below.the string is 12 bytes long and each four bytes has a float.the one in red is set at 1 and green and blue are 0 giving the read as the overall color. i have been trying to get this well i tried once and gave up but its been awhile.i have this so far but it doesnt work. this is kinda what i got to read the bytes out but its messed for i have been trying everything i could think of
Code:

View 1 RepliesWrite Binary File In Sequence With Listview?
Dec 5, 2011Write binary file in sequence with Listview.I'm loading data from a *. bin file in a listview to modify.Now I want to write listview data in the file.The start offset is 1036.The sequence of each data block is 228 bytes.The number of times to repeat the sequence is 8011.There is more information ... but I put these 3 sample.In the first data block to these lengths are Name Offset 1036 +50 (name space long is 22 bytes)Age Offset 1036 +60
Nationality Offset 1036 + 62
I suppose that before writing the data in the file would have to convert the data item and subitems in hex or byte.
Write To Specific Pos In Binary File In VB 2008?
Oct 26, 2010I'm amazed at this situation. In QBasic, you could just easily GET and PUT whatever you wanted at the exact position in the file that you wanted. Now in Visual Basic 2008 I'm just completely stumped.
I can't use FilePut or FilePutObject because of a twisted issue. It adds a couple of bytes to describe the length of the data being written: what's the point of BINARY read/write if it won't allow you to write EXACTLY what you want and nothing less or more? There's a way to turn off this issue, and that's by setting the parameter StringisFixedLength to TRUE, but that's where the twisted part comes in. You can't do that. As far as I can tell you have to redefine the function using SUB, for example:
[Code]...
My.Computer.FileSystem.WriteAllBytes. To my amazed surprise, this function doesn't even bother to include the possibility that I might want to put the data in a specific position within the file! I can't believe this. You can either specify to APPEND at the end or not, in the latter case apparently resulting in a write to the beginning of the file. No option at all to specify where in the file you want to put the data. I can't believe this.
How do you write to a SPECIFIC position in a binary file in VB 2008, and do it without the program deciding to add a few "informative" bytes to your data before it's written (totally undermining the whole point of binary files)?
C# - Using BinaryWriter Class To Write A Binary File To Disk?
Oct 8, 2009I am using BinaryWriter class to write a binary file to disk. When I invoke the Write method, passing an unsigned short value, it writes it in little-endian format. For example:
bw.Write(0xA000);
writes the value in the binary file as 0x00 0xA0. Is there a way to make BInaryWriter use Big Endian? If not, is it possible to create a new class, inheriting BinaryWriter and overload the Write function to make it write big endian?

May 22, 2011I am trying to write a simple application that monitors the COM port and writes the incoming binary data to a file. So, I gathered a File class is provided, but looking at its methods list in the Help page, I see no method for writing individual bytes (and the Write methods seem to close the file after writing).
How can I write a byte array into a file, keep it open and repeat this as necessary?

Feb 23, 2011I have been googling this and have not come along a working solution for an entire day. I don't know anything about binary data types (as I've never knowingly used them) and I'm trying to write a binary value that I see in the registry, to the registry. Now, all I see is the following [shown below]... and if I try to pass that as a string to the RegSetValueEx in the WinAPI and of course it errors out...
I do not know what 'numbers' I need to pass into the lpData As Any, argument of RegSetValueEx (i tried a bit array) in order for it to come out as the following [shown below] in the regedit. I really have no idea, and my tests to place random numbers in the bit array just produce corresponding random "figures" as visible in regedit that I do not understand how to 'tie' them together logically. here is the culprit!

I could come here with a specific need, but I'm at the point right now where I am more willing to work within the confines of keeping it simple.

Does the record length have to be constant throughout the file?
Can I read the nth record without reading the whole file?

File I/O And Registry :: Open / Read Binary File / Care To Check Code?
Jun 14, 2009I've gone through about 16 hours and two packs of cigarettes trying to figure this out. First a little background. I was using 6.0 up until 2004 when I went to prison. I'm out now, and trying to relearn the trade, using VS 2005. I'm currently porting some 6.0 code from another project, SpyCast Webcam Studio, into VB 8.0. It's disheartening, to say the least. None of the old built-in subs/functions work anymore, so I have to scour the forums to relearn each and every function.The section I'm doing now takes a snapshot from the webcam (Video API --> PictureBox --> Save as Jpeg), then upens the file to upload it to the server via HTTP POST. I've been using this code in SpyCast for years with no trouble, but I spent many hours trying to piece together the right code to open the binary file to read its contents. I pieced together two methods I found around the forums, one using FileStream() though the code I found wasn't for binary files, even though it said it was, so that code doesn't really work. Method two uses Microsoft.VisualBasic.FileOpen() and works better.
Here's the kicker. By the time I run through the rest of the rigamarole of uploading the file, by the time I read it on the webserver, it's *slightly* corrupted. It's a valid Jpeg, no errors, but the picture looks like when I use to watch the Playboy Channel when I was a kid scrambled with weird colors and whatnot. [code] Each "chunk" is basically one "line" of the file. It looks like a single LineInput() return is the text between two carriage returns. Am I correct? I tested this with a flat text file, and it looks true. However, That one input line returns the text or data with the carriage returns *stripped*! ***?!? =( Fine, I have no problem adding my own vbCrLf to each LineInput(), if I were opening text. but this's binary. A character could be Chr(10) or Chr(13), both of which are removed from the original file contents.So I could very well need to use something other than LineInput(), but I haven't found any other examples on the web using this method.
