I think that I've found the solution for my problem here.

The RAW Triangle Format is parsed by reading lines, not individual values. That was what I didn't know.
|

|

congrats on finding it! I never worked with raw, we use other model formats.

By the way, which formats do you use?
|
|
|
|
|
3dStudio, OpenFlight... Mostly
basically everything supported by open scene graph.
I haven't written my own loader for years.

Hey, i just wanted to ask if theres a way i can read the data of a file so i can paste it to another file?
Like i read the data of cmd.exe and paste it to whatever.exe?
|
|

|

Please be clear what you are asking.

cmd.exe is not a file to be read from, it's an executable.

Executables are files though

and an ice cube is water. What's your point?

That it's fine to read from cmd.exe, it's just unusual

I believe we are going to need more details about what you want to do...till now it sounds like you either want to read file data to the clipboard to paste it somewhere OR you need a filecopy method (like copy in a dos prompt).

I want to create a program out of a program.
We all have a cmd.exe in our windows folder, how would i be able to create the cmd.exe out of my own program?

What would your program do?

Are you asking how to find executable code inside a program and copy it to another file, in order to run it?
If so, you have to learn the structure of the program.

back in the 1990's, all programs started at the same offset. This made chaining programs easy. In fact a tool called LzExe[^] would compress an executable code, replace the loader function, and chain to the offset starting block.
Now it is a little more difficult. Without knowing your intentions, few people here are likely to give you a step-by-step walk-through. The process is similar, but you will have to read the EXE header and still replace it, that much remains the same, chaining to the code is a little more difficult, but not impossible, but the act of which will cause any security product on the machine such as anti-virus software to halt your action.
If your intent is only to insert program code into a process there are other safer ways to do this without modifying an executable. Dlls offer the safest disk method of injecting code into programs. There are also active methods of inserting code into running processes.
So.... as others have asked, what exactly are you trying to do? modify an executable inserting your own code? for what reason? what are you trying to accomplish?

You already asked this question (although in a slightly different way) here[^]. Reading the contents of an executable file and writing it somewhere else is the same as reading and writing any file; files are composed of bytes and bytes are bytes are bytes. In either case your objective is not clear, try rewording your question to clarify what problem you are actually trying to solve.

Why array starts with zero?

Because 0 is the starting number

(probably not the best technical explanation, but...)
because the first element is at a zero "offset" from the start of the array.
Watched code never compiles.

it makes switching between (pointer + offset) and pointer[offset] simple.
if arrays started with 1, pointer[1] would be the same as pointer + 0, and C programs would be full of off-by-one errors as programmers forgot to account for the difference when switching between array notation and pointer + offset notation.

Can anyone point me to any open source application using exception handling? I have never used EH myself nor ever felt the need to use it. Just wondering what and when is the right use for it?
I want to see how other ppl use exception handling in their code and how does it make their program robust?
one good thing about EH is to quickly exit from deeply nested hierarchy. but how do experts use it?
How often do you use EH in your code?

For questions like this it's always worth checking Google and/or CodeProject articles[^].
