AW: [Dev-C++] reading a binary file

[Christian W. <Chr...@vo...>]

Hi List,
 
 
i have a problem readding a binary file.
 
I have a 1.3 MB File, and i hav to read 2048 bytes (if != eof),
 
if have tryed it with ReadFile() but i every time get an acces violation ...
 
My last try was ifstream:
 
 
#include "stdio.h"
#include "fstream.h"
#include "windows.h"
 

int main(int argc, char* argv[])
{
 char buffer;
 int nRead = 0;
 
 ifstream *fb = new ifstream;
 fb->open("c:\\out.cal");
 
 if(fb->fail() != 0)printf("Cant opne\n");
 
 fb->seekg(0); 
 
 while (!fb->eof())
 {
  fb->read(buffer, 2048);
  nRead = nRead + 2048;
  printf("%i\n", nRead);
 };
 
 getchar();
 return 0;
}
 
 
If I execute this I get an acces voilation after the read function ...
 
 
Does any one have an idea ?
 
 
Kind r
 
 
Christian
