Programming :: Copying A Binary Image File To The Framebuffer?
Jul 14, 2010
I'm running Linux version 2.6.33.4 on an ARM9 and can successfully copy directly into the framebuffer using the command:
Code:
cat /usr/myfile.bin >/dev/fb0
I converted myfile.bin from a 640 x 480 x 24 bmp.
What I'd like to do is to have the ability to dump .bin image files directly into the framebuffer from a C program without shelling out to a cat command.
I am having problems with scp during a backup operationI added a ps -ef before and after the scp operation used during the backup.The backup is a script to backup a Zimbra ServerI am including the code segment that I am having problems
Code: # DRCP Section. To scp newly created archives to a remote system if [ "$DRCP" = "yes" ]
In a project I'm working on with a few other people, I got the task of writing an assembler. The last thing I do is convert the commands into a binary representation, and jam it into a file. Now one of my teammates said he'd like to be able to "reference" the code within another program. He said he'd be able to do this if the file I output is a Linux object file. I'm thinking it'd also work as an executable. Anyway, he said he'd like to be able to grab the file and reference the binary by address. I'm still fuzzy on this, and if you're confused with what I said here, please tell me so I can ask him for better details.Anyway, I'm aware that gcc can compile files to ".o", but that's only for C/C++, and my file is just binary. I'm also aware of "ld", but I haven't seen any use of it to help me. I'm happy to hear suggestions as to what I can do. If anything, I think I'll implement a few functions to grab the bits and hand them to him in an array or something.
I'm trying to compile a simple script for a ar71xx (bleeding edge /from snapshots) Openwrt router.I have previously compiled scripts for Kamikaze 8.09. I just copied the gcc file inside the SDK dir and used it without problems.
i need to change a binary file, let's say to find and replace username:
find string: "/home/name/bla-bla-bla/ " new string: "/home/anewname/bla-bla-bla/ "
i can do it, for example, in emacs (hexl-mode), but interesting in writing a script instead. it will be much more better for me if i could do it automatically. is there an analog of: sed 's/string1/string2/g' ? P.S. the best way is to recompile the binary files i have, but there are no sources available.
I want to be able to disassemble a binary file, modify the assembly source, then assemble the modified assembly source back into a modified binary file. Purpose for this is pretty much just to play around with the Crackmes (www.crackmes.de) game.
Now, disassembly is easy, there are several tools that do it, including the standard objdump with the -d argument. However, how would you assemble an assembly source file created with objdump -d? GCC for sure doesn't want to assemble it in that format. What program, script, or arguments to GCC (none that I can think of) can be used to accomplish this? If someone also has some good tips for tools in general for Crackmes beyond what is standard in GNU/Linux I'd love to hear about it.
I have a binary file, which I need to process using my C++ application. Only thing I know is first chunk of the file is long, second chunk is int, third chunk is char etc... The binary file actually contains something like below. (which is represented in hex base).
D7 07 00 00 00 00 00 00 37 18 00 00 DE 07 ............ so on.....
I need to procees the file in the following way.
* I know the first data segment in my file is long. So it takes 4 bytes. * so I need to read the first four bytes. That is D7 07 00 00. * Then I need to reverse this as 00 00 07 D7. * Finally I need to get the decimal value of above hexa decimal line. ( 00 00 07 D7) * i.e. 00 00 07 D7 (in hex) = 7D7 (in hex- after removing leading 0 s) = 2007 (in decimal)
My assessment is making a tree from a text file as follows: -reading a file line by line
-making a binary tree from it - traverse by level the binary tree - posting the traversal result to the same file without overwriting the text file- it is required to be append to the bottom of the text file (i have to do this in 4 languages: c#,PHP from Xampp,java, python)
i read the file with this script in java: public class FileToStringArray { privateString strLine; privateString[] stringArray; privateFileInputStream in;
What is the Terminology called of a Binary using a file that is not part of it's self? An example would be when a browser uses a HTML file for it's interface. The binaries code has to know how to find it and so on. I imagine that the applications binary uses a system call and that another application takes over.
I need to read a binary file using my C++ application. That binary file may contain arbitary characters and it also contains 0 at some places. I need to read the file without considering null terminating character. (i.e. considering 0 as a normal byte and not as the end of the string)Can some one suggest me a method to read the buffer while ignoring the null terminated character.
I am accessing a firewire camera using the libdc1394 library and saving the image as a PPM file, using the code below:
[Code].....
My question is whether the above code is portable. I presume it is, since the result is a binary PPM file which should be capable of being read across multiple computers with different architectures and different operating systems. But at the same time, all that the above code is doing is just saving the binary representation of unsigned chars on the harddrive, and there does not seem to be any reason why the binary representations of the unsigned chars will be identical across multiple computers.
How do you set up a command just to copy a file's full path name (%F) onto the clipboard?(I can't seem to get this without copying the contents of the file.)
I am trying to upload some pics on my Facebook account using Firefox. When I click on Facebook's file upload icon, Firefox bring up a 'File Upload' window. I noticed that smaller image file is previewed on the lower right hand corner, while bigger image file is not. Is there anyway I can change this behavior or maybe change what Firefox is using to browse my files?
I wanted to know how can I cross compile SMS SERVER TOOL for an embedded computer and make just one binary file for it or how can I change all of its default files places like its demon and object file and gather all of them to one directory to execute and use and run.let me explain it better for you : I have an embedded computer with Linux OS that its file system is read only and I can not add any file to /usr /lib and ..... and I can just mount a SD memory card to it and copy all of my programs to it and run them from there as you understand I have two choices to choose, first make one big binary file for each program that I am doing it now and it is not a suitable solution and the second is finding the way to change default place of shared object file of my program.now you tell me what can I do to solving this problem.
I'm a Linux newbie and are trying to install F13 from bootable USB onto the HD of a DELL mini netbook. I've followed the install wizard's defaults including the "Use All Space option." The install errors out at about 20% of progress during the "Copying live image to hard drive" process. The error dialog is as followed:"There was an error installing the live image to your hard drive. This could be due to bad media. Please verify your installation media..." and it comes with options to Exit installer or Retry. I have since retried and restarted several times and still came to the same error. FYI, I've initially attempted to install F13 to the HD over an existing Windows XP.
I've had Ubuntu 11.04 installed on my desktop since it's release. Up until an hour ago, it was working fine. I clicked on an update from the update manager, now booting into a graphical mode is completely broken, (the start-up load hangs at 'Check Battery State ... [0k]'). I restarted my computer, and booted into safe mode, and launched the terminal. This all works fine. I then typed :
Code: sudo gdm start into the command prompt, hoping that I would be able to start things manually. Instead, it spat out this: Code:
gdm-binary[230]: WARNING: Unable to load file '/etc/gdm/custom.conf'. No such file or directory. gdm-binary[230]: WARNING: Unable to find users : no seat-id found. gdm-binary[230]: WARNING: Gdm Display: display lasted 0.070467 seconds
The last line was printed about 8 times, with slightly different times, before it gave up and failed. Some information which might help, I have Gnome 2, Unity and KDE (not sure which version), installed. My graphics card is the GTX 275, and I have driver the Nvidia driver 275.21. So yeah, I think the update has gone and moved custom.conf somewhere, but I have no idea on how to fix it. I have a graphics programming assignment due on Friday and I would be eternally grateful if I could get this fixed well before then.
I have just exported 3 png files out of gimp for a html document I'm working on right now, and they are all almost the same, except I need each to load when the user does something. So the first image will display on the page, and when a user puts their cursor over it, then it will load image 2. When they press it, it loads image 3.
I am learning C++ and wish to include some Boost functions in my code. My machine is running Debian Linux with the pre-installed boost binarys.I have a couple of questions:How do I include the library in my C++ code as there are no cpp or h files only binary files (eg /usr/lib/libboost_regex-d.so and /usr/lib/libboost_regex-d.a)How do I comile the code. I am using DialogBlocks for creating forms using wxwidgets. The editor also compiles the code using the gcc compiler. Do I have to give an instruction to the compiler saying which file is requried and where to find it? If so, any ideas how this is done?
i have some files name libbeet.so.3.02 , libpos.so.3.04.I think all is binary files , but i am not able to see the contain of file.is there any script to read the file contain.
I have a binary value which I receive from a controller. Say this binary value is 42. Just plain hex 42. If you would look at that byte in a debugger you would see 42.Now this value hold 8 bits each indicating a high or a low output. So 0x42 = 01000010b. Which means bits 1 and 6 are '1'.When I would want to find out which bits are set and which are not in a language like C, I simply do:
Code:
mask = 0x80; if (binval & mask) {...} etc..
However I am programming in TCL, and I try to do:
Code:
set mask 0x80 if { [expr ($binval & $mask) > 0] } {...} etc...
this fails. At the moment the expr is executed, $binval is evaluated and substituted so the expression I am evaluating is
Code:
set mask 0x80 if { [expr ('B' & '0x80') > 0] } {...} etc...
Eventually I got it working by converting the $binval into a '0x42' string value, like this:
Code:
binary scan $binval c byte set byte [format "0x%0x" $byte] set mask 0x80 if { [expr ($byte & $mask) > 0] } {...} etc...[
Then the expression yields what I want. But this seems so stupid and clumsy. Isn't there a better way where I can compare two binary values without conversions?
When I try to copy PDF files from one folder to another folder, it give me this error: "Error while copying "2004-SNUG-Europe-paper_...log_DPI_with_SystemC.pdf". There was an error copying the file into /media/CCDCE66BDCE64F70/Backup Master/Heterogeneous_cosimulation/Documentation" "Error splicing file: Input/output error" What is the reason of this error and how can this be fixed?
I have a 7.2 GB file (VMWare virtual machine file) that I am trying to copy from its original location to the another folder OR to external hard drive...each time I try to do this, I always get the following error after the copying process reach 'exactly' 1.4 GB
Error reading from file input/output error
And I have to either Cancel or Skip
I've tried to split the files to smaller pieces but the idea didn't work as I still get the same error whenever I try to compress/ split or do any operation with this file. how I can copy this file?
