How can I read a Hdr file?
hi everyone.
I am a newbie in c++. I have an assignment for the university.
We have to write a program that will read an actual header file from the university's meteosat station and show the date of the file creation and the position of the sat. I was trying to do it with i/o functions but it seems that it is not working.
Any suggestions how I can read the file?
Hope to hear anything

Creation date/time is something you'll get from the OS, check your compilers documentation. What are you using anyway?
As for reading the file, post some code and a sample of the file contents.
When all else fails, read the instructions.
If you're posting code, use code tags: [code] /* insert code here */ [/code]
What OS do you want the program to run under?
For Windows OS, consider these Win32 API.
GetFileAttributes()
GetFileAttributesEx()

Read the header file? Just add this:
All functions referenced in the header file will then be usable in your .cpp file. Hopefully I'm not misunderstanding what you are asking...Code:#include <your_header_file.h>
-Mark
Language: C++
Compiler: Borland C++
OS: Windows NT
>>#include
did you even read the post??
he's not reading that type of file, just because he said header file. He's reading in a text file containing info on the position of a satellite.
you need to use file i/o
Code:#include <fstream> char * satPosition=new char[128]; //make bigger if you need it int main() { ifstream fin("c:\\whatever\\fileCreatedByStation.txt"); //initialize file handle, don't take out the double slashes, they're character escapes fin.getline(satPosition,127); fin.close(); cout<<satPosition<<endl; delete [] satPosition; satPosition=NULL; return 0; }
PHP and XML
Let's talk about SAX
the file has is named Metsat.hdr not metsat.txt
and that is what it shows when you poen it with the wordpad

I have to make the program to read this and so the position of the meteosat.
Anyway thanks with for code Waldo2k2
See ya

Hi it's me again.
The program is to be created as a C/C++ console application using visual studio .NET.
See ya
