okoc_binary_mat_import

 

Description

Load a binary file that are in the form of a 2d array into a matrix object.

Syntax

int okoc_binary_mat_import( LPCSTR lpcszFilename, LPCSTR lpcszRangeMat, int nCols, int nElemSize, int nSign, BOOL bBigEndian = false, int nOffset = 0, int nRows = -1 )

Parameters

lpcszFilename
[input] file to be imported
lpcszRangeMat
[input] range string to a matrix object
nCols
[input] number of columns in the 2d array
nElemSize
[input] data element size in bytes, 1,2,4, 8, 16 = complex. must set nSign = -1 for complex, double and float
nSign
[input] 0 if unsigned, 1 if signed for integer data types. -1 if float data type
bBigEndian
[input] false = little-endian is the most typical, for all PC data files at least.
nOffset
[input] file header offset
nRows
[input] -1 if unknown, and will determine from file size, otherwise the number of rows.

Return

0 if success, < 0 for error codes, some important ones are

-20 lpcszRangeMat does not point to an existing MatrixObject

-1 lpcszFilename not found or size = 0

-2 lpcszFilename file size too small, does not even have a single row of data

-3 the combincation of nElemSize and nSign does not indicate a valid internal data type in Origin

-6 memory allocation failed to prepare the matrix object before import

-10 file size not exactly correct so failed to read the last row

-11 failed to open the file for reading

Examples

EX1

#include <okocUtils.h>
void okoc_binary_mat_import_ex1()
{
        string strFile = "C:\\temp4096x5120.img";
        if ( strFile.IsFile() )
        {
                const int nCols = 128; //number of columns in the matrix
                const int nBytes = 2;
                const int nSign = 0;
                const int nBigEnd = 0;
                const int nOffset = 0;
                string strRange;
                MatrixPage mp;
                mp.Create("Origin");
                strRange.Format("[%s]1!1", mp.GetName());
                int nRet = okoc_binary_mat_import(strFile, strRange, nCols, nBytes, nSign, nBigEnd, nOffset);
                if ( nRet == 0 )
                        out_str("Import binary data from file successfully.");
                else
                        out_str("Fail to import binary data from file.");
        }
        return;
}
