    PS I think the 'f' always only appears at the end. Can you confirm.

    PPS In the preliminar output does it start with a '|' and the various parts separated by '|'?
    Hello 2kaud,

    Yes, the "f's" are used to fill the substrings when the 16 bytes are not completely occupied by numbers (0 to 9), then the "f's" appear always from rigth to left of each substring and could appear one or more "f´s".

    Instead of use "," as utput separator, the "|" is only the separator I'd like to use in the output.

    I've tested the code and the output with small file I've uploaded in previous post and I get:
    Code:
    1,|532064450189340|81474549232|,0015000A48
    2,|532064450189341|81474554768|,0015000A48
    3,|532064450189342|81474557521|,0015000A48
    4,|532064450189348|81477380427|,0015000A48
    5,|532064450189349|81474663128|,0015000A48
    where the first column is block number, 2nd column is first string, 3rd column is 2nd string, but is appearing a 4th column that is not supposed to appear. The 4th column should be the first substring of the sub-block if exist.

    So, if only first 2 strings are processed currently, the output expected is:
    Code:
    1|532064450189340|81474549232
    2|532064450189341|81474554768
    3|532064450189342|81474557521
    4|532064450189348|81477380427
    5|532064450189349|81474663128
    Thanks for the help 2kaud.

    Re: Read binary file with line delimeter

    For test purposes, within the for loop in main () I just output the first 10 chars of the string block as the 4th column for the first 20 blocks to check things were working properly. Modify the processing within the for loop as required.

    Code:
    	for (DWORD blk = 1; ff.getBlock(block, number, firstpart); blk++) {
    		//if (blk < 20 )
    			cout << number << firstpart << endl;
    		//else 
    		//	break;
    	
    		//if (number != blk) 
    		//cout << "block " << blk << endl << number << "," << block.size() << "," << block.substr(0, 16) << endl;
    	}
    I'll have a look at the rest over the next couple of days.

    Re sub strings. The only time I can find ff79 in the provided file is when it is part of the block number following a ff77??

    Hello 2kaud,

    Certainly there a block number FF79, but this correlative shouln't be confused with the FF79 that says when begins a new sub-block within each block. So, once processed the first 2 strings that you already process in last code, if after that 2 strings is found a FF79 should belong to a sub-block and if FF77 is found before than a FF79 it means that there is no sub-block.

    It could happen as below:
    Code:
    09373ff7700ff78532064450189342f81474557521fffff0015000a4800015a0

    10065000000020000020
    So, in the second block begins with FF77 followed by the correlative 00FF79, I mean FF7700FF79..
    but after this, within the block appears FF79, and this FF79 is the begin of the sub-block and should be confused with the correlative that is inmediatele after FF77.

    It could happen to like FF770FF790532064...

    Thanks in advance,

    Re: Read binary file with line delimeter

    Sorry, but in the data I have from your downloaded zip file, I don't see this pattern.

    Code:
    FF 77 00 FF 78 53 20 64 01 96 59 17 4F 50 44 04 15 26 6F FF FF 00 15 00 0A 48 00 01
    5A 00 14 42 00 01 33 00 01 36 00 01 37 00 01 7E 00 01 69 00 01 79 00 00 93 00 01 22 
    00 00 21 00 01 26 00 01 10 00 01 2B 00 00 2C 00 00 2D 00 00 2E 00 00 55 00 00 56 00 
    07 2A 00 00 2F 00 00 30 00 00 31 00 00 FF 34 00 80 09 32 C9 06 00 00 A0 00 00 00 80
    09 35 C9 06 00 00 A0 00 00 00 80 09 3C C9 06 00 00 A0 00 00 00 FF 77 00 FF 79
    Where you are expecting to see ff79, I get ff34 as highlighted above.

    Re: Read binary file with line delimeter

    Hello 2kaud,

    Yes, I see for that file instead of FF79 is FF34. For that file the begin of sub-block is FF74 and each substring begins with 8X (where X=0,1,2,3,6,7), and instead of "05" is "03". The rest is the same.

    The sample binary.txt I uploaded before is correct with FF79 as begin of each sub-block. But I'll try to upload a small
    sample file that has FF79 as beginning of each sub-block and that has a correlative FF79 too.

    Re: Read binary file with line delimeter

    Hello 2kaud,

    Attached a small zipped file that contains the patterns mentioned. Contains correlative FF79 and begin of sub-block FF79 too.

    Best regards

    Re: Read binary file with line delimeter

    In the binary.txt file, ff79 does indeed start the beginning of each sub-block. However, for the first part of the requirement, the length of the first section is 9 bytes not 8!

    Code:
    FF 77 00 00 01 53 20 64 45 01 89 34 55 0F 81 47 45 49 23 2F FF FF
    


    2 byte starter (ff77), 3 byte block number (000001), 9 byte first part (53206445018934550f) then 8 byte second part (81474549232fffff).

    The way I have written getBlock() requires fixed 8 byte then 8 byte blocks. If the number of bytes in these two initial blocks can vary, it will mean a code rewrite and potentially slower performance.

    This file looks better. Has the ff79 and 2 8-byte sections at the beginning of each block. I'll try out some code for the second requirement over the next couple of days.

    Note my comment from my previous post. If you try to process a file that has a different layout (however small the difference), the program won't produce the expected output.

    Re: Read binary file with line delimeter

    You're rigth 2kaud, that file has 9 bytes in first part. That is an error in that file. But the correct thing is 2 strings of 8 bytes.

    The last sample file is correct in that way and will be functional to test.

    Thanks so much again

    Re: Read binary file with line delimeter

    Hello 2kaud,

    Thanks for the great help!

    It getting the strings but is getting other strings too. For the first 4 blocks it seems to get the correct strings, but for the laststring shouln't get any substring. The strings I want to get are allways after "059X" and 9506 (excluded).
    So the string stars 059XAABBCC + some characters +.. + .. 940E + 14 bytes + 9506+..+.

    The string 940E+14 bytes is always the last string and the string that begins with 9506 I don't needed, is only for reference.

    For more details each substring is composed like this:
    9XAABBCC + some characters
    Where
    X = 0,1,2,3,6,7
    AA = 15 to 141 (in hex 0F to 8D)
    BB = 01 to 10 (in hex 01 to 10)
    CC = 00 to 255 (in hex 00 to FF)

    Thanks for the help.

    Can you attach a sample file with the expected output as the posted code works with the previous sample data in post #112.

    Re: Read binary file with line delimeter

    The supplied data doesn't have any '95' data blocks so couldn't test. I've slightly changed the special case handling. Does this version only produce the strings required? Please attach a sample file that covers all the cases.

    Code:
    	for (DWORD blk = 1; ff.getBlock(block, number, preliminar); blk++) {
    		size_t ff79;
    		if ((ff79 = block.find(SBLOCK)) != string::npos) {
    			size_t five;
    			if ((five = block.find("05", ff79)) != string::npos) {
    				string cx = block.substr(five + 2);
    				for (size_t c = 0; c < cx.size(); c+= 2)
    					if (cx[c] == '9' && (cx[c + 1] >= '0' && cx[c + 1] <= '7' /*&& cx[c + 1] != '5'*/)) {
    						int slen = (convh[(cx[c + 2] - '0')] * 16 + convh[cx[c + 3] - '0']) * 2 + 4;
    						if (cx[c + 1] != '5')
    							preliminar += cx.substr(c, slen) + '|';
    
    						if (cx[c + 1] == '4')
    							break;
    
    						c += slen - 2;
    					}
    			}
    		}
    		cout << number << preliminar << endl;
    	}

    Re: Read binary file with line delimeter

    Hello 2kaud,

    The thing is that not always appear all subtrings, sometimes could appear only 91XXXXX or 90XXXX and 93XXXXXX. Then, could appear one or more substrings in each subblock.

    With the last code using binSmall.txt I get this:
    Code:
    65398|532064019659172|81440415264|900F0102000000308147526905FFFFFF00|910F01020000013A81475269559FFFFF00|9310010C0000009FFFFFFF0101|960F010E000000EB81475269596FFFFF00|970F01010006F69981475269563FFFFF00|940E0001000001000100FFFF00000101|
    65399|532064024496121|81440415265|
    65400|532064019659174|81440415266|
    65401|532064019659175|81440415267|910F01020000000D8147526905FFFFFF00|9310010C0000000D8147526905FFFFFF0101|960F010C000000565FFFFF00|940E01020102010001FFFFFF02010201|
    65402|532064019659176|81440415268|9181495269539FFFFFFF009181495269539FFFFF000103CA030808FECB0A000000000100000000010002|
    And expected output is:
    Code:
    65398|532064019659172|81440415264|900F0102000000308147526905FFFFFF00|910F01020000013A81475269559FFFFF00|9310010C0000009FFFFFFF0101|960F010E000000EB81475269596FFFFF00|970F01010006F69981475269563FFFFF00|940E0001000001000100FFFF00000101
    65399|532064024496121|81440415265
    65400|532064019659174|81440415266
    65401|532064019659175|81440415267|910F01020000000D8147526905FFFFFF00|9310010C0000000D8147526905FFFFFF0101|960F010C000000565FFFFF00|940E01020102010001FFFFFF02010201
    65402|532064019659176|81440415268
    So, it seems that for the last block is being printed in 4th column a string that begins with 918149.. . and that string shouldn't appear, since even there is a FF79 string (there is a sub-block), there are not the sequence 059X+ ..+..940E+14 bytes.
