Hi all,
I've create a char type buffer as follows.
char tempBuffer[256] ;
Then I use some text to a file using that buffer as follows.
openFile.Write(readString, sizeof(tempBufferWrite)) ;
Now my question is this. Say I'm write something to the file which is the length is less than 256 characters. File contains the text I wrote to it and after that filled up with annoying characters until reach to 256 total characters. I want to avoid such annoying characters.
So, is there any way to initialize the buffer with empty characters, or the size define the length of the string(text I have write to the file)
Thanks

char tempBuffer[256] = <code>{0}</code>;

Yep I have try it, but no luck. Initially I thought that letter '0' initialize in all 256 memory locations. And also I've tried this.
char tempBufferWrite[256] = {} ;
Even though print some annoying text.
For more explanation see this code,
<br />
void CSRFToolDlg::OnBnClickedWrite()<br />
{<br />
char tempBufferWrite[256] = {0} ;
openFile.Write("text of letters", sizeof(tempBufferWrite)) ;<br />
openFile.Flush() ;<br />
}<br />

try strlen (tempBufferWrite) inside your write function.

You mean set the buffer size to length of the string(text)?

mmm,
you are writing "text of letters" (16 chars including '\0'), but you have actually 256 bytes in the buffer and is not a pointer so the size is fix to you init value. That means the rest is going to be written with waste values.
Try:
void CSRFToolDlg::OnBnClickedWrite()
{
char* tempBufferWrite = NULL;
tempBufferWrite = new char[256];
tempBufferWrite = "text of letters";
openFile.Write(tempBufferWrite , sizeof(tempBufferWrite)) ;
openFile.Flush() ;
}
Greetings.

Seems it works. Thanks.
Now I'm going to slightly change it with dynamic text, like text from control box. I come back here if I got any issue there.

mmm, I just made some changes but leaving his point of view.
Anyways, if it is not correct, or it is useless... instead of just ask "this is for what?" would be better to say, "this is not right, you should use...", so I would learn as the same time I try to help

instead of
sizeof(tempBufferWrite)
there you put strlen(tempBufferWrite)
thats it.

That would equate to 0, which is obviously wrong. The second argument to Write() should be the number of bytes in the first argument.

How you choose to say it is up to you, but the second argument to Write() must be the number of bytes in the first argument.

please tell me what is the first argument, here and what is its size.
iam very sure that you may be right, but please let me know what is that wrong i have done.
thank you.

In your example here, the first argument is the string literal "text of letters".

In this case won't work, because the tempBufferWrite is 256 chars long, but the string that is being written in the file is "text of letters" (16 chars), and note that there is no string to have length of. The code gives the "..." directly, not going through the buffer.
char tempBufferWrite[256] = "Test of letters" ;
openFile.Write(&tempBufferWrite, strlen(tempBufferWrite)) ;
That should work. What you proposed just changing sizeof with strlength must not.

thanks for the analysis,
Nelek wrote: char tempBufferWrite[256] = "Test of letters" ; // or {}openFile.Write(&tempBufferWrite, strlen(tempBufferWrite)) ;
That should work
i was thinking that, &tempBufferWrite is used in the write,
i didnt observe some other readstring in that place.

Thanks,
Than mean strlen get the length of CString.

anyway, just a guess: i see you're coding in C++, so why not using std::string or even CString (if using MFC) ... ?
|
|
|
|

Actually that readString defines as CString in my code.

openFile.Write(tempBuffer, amount of data you wrote to tempBuffer); Don't pass the whole buffer length when you didn't fill that much.

Actually that what I've worried about. Couldn't find any way to define the buffer length as the length of string. Actually I tried something like this.
readString.GetLength()
