    Reading unknown struct from binary data file

    Hi all,

    I have a scientific binary data file of unknown struct that I would like to read into containers using C++. There are many column names, but only 6-20 of the columns contain an array of >5000 numerical values. What source code can I use to read the binary data file (struct consists of chars, int, and long) into an interpretable interface?

    Regards,

    Stevan

    Re: Reading unknown struct from binary data file

    What is the format of the binary data? How are the structs & values delimited?
