Hi,

I have a file which stores the following array :-

1,2,3,4,5.........16,17,18,19,20

This file has few hundreds of inputs of these lines.

I would like to read this file one line at a time; and assign to an array which is separated by ",".

I tried to do fgets command however, segmentation fault occurs.I suspect its because I get the one whole line without concatenate the , .

Please help.

Thanks.

A segfault means you have some other code problem. Please post your code.

Also fscanf() will allow you to specify field separators, so you can read one element of the array at a time.

Hi,

The main motivation is that I would like to do a upper shell command on top of the binaries with different number of input files.

e.g ./binary.exe a.txt
./binary.exe b.txt

....where these a.txt and b.txt are input files.

The problem now i am facing is particular only on one input file before even I could move to perform some shell stuffs.

Below are some code snippet which I face error of seg fault i described earlier on.

#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <string.h>
#define SIZE 20

main (int argc, char *argv[])
{

FILE *cfPtr; /* for reading data to expand.txt for vector based */
FILE *tfPtr; /* for reading data from svmkb.txt */

int t[SIZE];
int subs[7];
int label=0;
int i;
char filename[5000];
char dump;

strcpy(filename,argv[2]);

tfPtr = fopen(filename,"r");
if (tfPtr == NULL)
{
printf("Can't find input file %s",filename);
exit(-1);
}


/*initialization for statement 1,2 and 4*/
for (i=1; i< 5;i++){

subs[i]=0;
}

while(!feof(tfPtr))
{
for (i=0; i<16; i++)
{
fscanf(filename, "%d", t[i]);
fscanf(filename, "%c", dump);
}

while(t[SIZE-16]>0){

subs[1]=1;
subs[4]=1;
label=0;
t[SIZE-16]--;
}


}
fclose(tfPtr);

exit(0);

return 0;
}

./test.c a.txt gives me Segmentation Fault(Core Dump)
For your information, my a.txt looks like:-
0, 0, 1, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 1, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0 ,1,0,1,0
.........
........
....

How are you invoking the compiled executable. Show the command and all the arguments that you are passing to it.

Hi,

I am executing just by ./binary.exe testfile.txt


where testfile.txt is the filename (contain the number of bits) in the binary.c (2nd argument) passed through argv.

A couple things.

while(!feof(tfPtr))
{
for (i=0; i<16; i++)
{
fscanf(filename, "%d", t[i]);
fscanf(filename, "%c", dump);
}

If you are passing a single argument to ./binary.exe then strcpy should have argv[1] as the 2nd argument instead of argv[2].

strcpy(filename, argv[1]);
