PureBasic Forums - English

Every request for help i've ever posted has resulted in useless comments or no help @ all.... Now that im on the brink of something cool and i need a lil help....ARRRRGGGG!@

sorry even tough the above is TRUE im just blowing of some steam.....

First of all: I havn't read your postings.

I think the answer always depends on the right question. It also could be that you're asking questions that are too hard or uninteresting for the most of us.
So try to reduce your questions to a minimum and keep trying

good luck

You haven't posted that much (3 originals since August?)....

Sometimes things that stump you might stump everyone else!

Overall I think it's a damn helpful forum - one of the best I've been a member of.

Best of luck in the future, though

i haven't read yours but i try to help when i can

don't expect that we all will come to your troubles everytime you ask something

Ok you got my attention. I also, usually skip the uninteresting posts ... Anyway I had a look at your reading & writing post and here is a link to some user libraries that might help:

http://www.purearea.net/pb/english/index.htm

This link in particular might help:

for large binary files ----

http://www.purearea.net/pb/download/use ... stFile.zip

for large text files ----

http://www.purearea.net/pb/download/use ... etext3.zip

Thanks for the links but i would not post here unless i was in a real *slump*. I've been there and done that. I've written functions that can read and replace binary and hex values but since i have to read them in chunks i cant write them out as 1 file.....So the links mean nothing to me they got me nowhere....

I actualy need someone to help me with some code to read a file ,replace unsigned binary values or hex values and write the file backout....

P.S as carbon stated i only has 3 help requests or so until now....I usualy don't ask i like to try and find things out myself but this is totaly s*cewing with me. i apreciate any help....


I wrote this but it only works with small files....

Sorry to hear that. If I can help, I definitely would. Sometimes people
just don't know the answer. Useless comments are a pain, I agree...

As for your modify bytes in a file question, I think I had a source to do
that somewhere -- I'll have to check later. Is it just replacing bytes, and
not dropping/adding any? And it must work with any size file, right?

It's for replaceing bytes with 00 00 00 00 (Zero filling )

Hey thanks guys i was just pissed off but i understand....

I think any answer is welcome as it is the time from someone who try to help us. If it´s the right one...well may be a matter of misundestanding.
If I undestand you, why not create a file with twice bytes the binary one and fill it with zeroes ?
Merry christmas folks !

Always look on the bright (not Dark) si(t)e

I partly agree.
Several of my rather important questions are never answered or answered in such a way that it only gives frustration.

Sometimes i guess that it's because i'm 3th party builder.
But i could not find any reason to believe that.
But for some questions i need more info on internals.
That's what i not always get by simply not having been answered at all.

That's it..

But it's totally unfair to say that this forum sucks because a few of your questions have gone unanswered - surely you can agree with that

The vast majority of the questions asked here get answered promptly and politely IMHO..

I understand the frustration factor too, believe me..

To prevent miscommunications, i did not say it sucks.
I just wanted to get some answers in the past, that's all...

few days ago, I send on french forum a piece of code wich read a file content and store it in a string and then copy it into the clipboard to have The corresponding Data to put them in a pb file, section Data.

Use the last posted code

May be it could help you.


Here it is
