1、System Programming,Chapter 5 Standard I/O Library,Announcement,Programming assignment #1 3/15/2006 4/7/2006 Bring your labtop PC (if you have one) for your next class Active slides,Fun Video I,Paper Windows (Queens, Canada) vs. Graphical Windows,Fun Video II,I/O Brush: The World as the Palette (MIT

2、Media Lab),Document Your Code,The more comments the better? Well documented: Some code explains itself. The comments are written for the readers to understand the code not to misguide the readers.,What does the following code fragment do?,/ pi is a float, start with 0 float pi = 0; / i is an integer

3、, go from 0 to 10000 for (int i=0; i10000; i+) / initialize the floats x an y with random numbersfloat x = (float)rand() / RAND_MAX;float y = (float)rand() / RAND_MAX; / add .0004 to pi if x*x + y*y is smaller than 1if ( x*x + y*y 1 ) pi += .0004; ,Calculation of Pi Using the Monte Carlo Method,The

4、“Monte Carlo Method“ is a method of solving problems using statistics. The probability of randomly selecting a point (x,y) inside the circle to that inside the square is p/4.,(x, y),Take a 2nd look,/ estimate pi by using a Monte Carlo algorithm: / get 10000 random points in the 01 x/y range and use

5、/ Pythagoras to check / if they are inside the circle. Add 4/10000 for each / point within the circle. float pi = 0; for (int i=0; i10000; i+) float x = (float)rand() / RAND_MAX;float y = (float)rand() / RAND_MAX;if ( x*x + y*y 1 ) pi += .0004; ,Contents,Preface/Introduction Standardization and Impl

7、standard Easy to use and portable Details handled: Buffer allocation, optimal-sized I/O chunks, better interface, etc.,Standard I/O Library,Differences from File I/O File Pointers vs. File Descriptors fopen vs open When a file is opened/created, a stream is associated with the file. FILE object File

8、 descriptor, buffer size, # of remaining chars, an error flag, and the like. stdin, sdtout, stderr defined in STDIO_FILENO, STDOUT_FILENO,Unbuffered I/O,read( ),read( ),read( ),User Process,Kernel,Storage,Buffered I/O,gets( ),gets( ),gets( ),User Process,Kernel,Storage,Standard I/O Buffer,Buffering,

9、Goal Use the minimum number of read and write calls. Types Fully Buffered Actual I/O occurs when the buffer is filled up. A buffer is automatically allocated when the first-time I/O is performed on a stream. Meaning of “flush”: standard I/O lib vs terminal driver,Buffering,Line Buffered Perform I/O

10、when a newline char is encountered! usually for terminals. Caveats The filling of a fixed buffer could trigger I/O. The flushing of all line-buffered outputs if input is requested. Unbuffered Expect to output ASAP, e.g. using write() E.g., stderr,Buffering,ANSI C Requirements Fully buffered for stdi

11、n and stdout unless interactive devices are referred to. SVR4/4.3+BSD line buffered Standard error is never fully buffered.#include int fflush(FILE *fp); All output streams are flushed if fp = NULL,Buffering,#include void setbuf(FILE *fp, char *buf); int setvbuf(FILE *fp, char *buf, int mode, size_t

12、 size); Full/line buffering if buf is not NULL (BUFSIZ) Terminals mode: _IOFBF, IOLBF, _IONBF () #define BUFSIZ 1024 () They must be called before any op is performed on the streams! What if you want to change it after some op?,Buffering,Possible Memory Access Errors Use automatic allocation NULL fo

13、r *buf in setvbuf() bookkeeping,Standard I/O Library - Open,#include FILE *fopen(const char *pathname, const char *type); FILE *freopen(const char *pathname, const char *type, FILE *fp); fopen/freopen opens a specified file! POSIX.1 Close fp stream first! New files created by a or w have r/w rights

14、for all,Standard I/O Library - Open,Type r w a r+ w+ a+ File exists? Y Y Truncate Y Y R Y Y Y Y W Y Y Y Y Y W only at end Y Y,Standard I/O Library - Open,#include FILE *fdopen(int fildes, const char *type); Associate a standard I/O stream with an existing file descriptor POSIX.1 Pipes, network chann

15、els No truncating for the file for “w” b (in rb, wb, ab, r+b, ) stands for a binary file no effect for Unix kernel O_APPEND supports multiple access. Interleaved R&W restrictions intervening fflush (WR), fseek(WR/RW), fsetpos (WR/RW), rewind (WR/RW), EOF (RW),Standard I/O Library Open/Close,#include

16、 int fclose(FILE *fp); Flush buffered output Discard buffered input All I/O streams are closed after the process exits.setbuf or setvbuf to change the buffering of a file before any operation on the stream.,Multi-byte Files,Standard I/O file streams can be used with single byte and multiple byte cha

Return values: Positive: wide oriented Negative: byte oriented 0: no orientation.,#include #include int fwide(FILE *fp, int mode);,Standard I/O Library Reading/Writing,Unformatted I/O Character-at-

18、a-time I/O, e.g., getc() Buffering handled by standard I/O lib Line-at-a-time I/O, e.g., fgets() Buffer limit might need to be specified. Direct I/O, e.g., fread() Read/write a number of objects of a specified size. An ANSI C term, e.g., = object-at-a-time I/O,Standard I/O Library Reading/Writing,#i

19、nclude int getc(FILE *fp); int fgetc(FILE *fp); int getchar(void); return next character if okay, EOF on end of file or error getchar = getc(stdin) Differences between getc and fgetc getc could be a macro Arguments side effect (e.g., getc(f*+) will fail, exec time, passing of the function address. u

22、ts(char *buf, int n, FILE *fp); Include n and be terminated by null Could return a partial line if the line is too long. Return buf if OK, NULL on end of file or error char *gets(char *buf); Read from stdin. No buffer size is specified overflow *buf does not include n and is terminated by null. Retu

23、rn buf if OK, NULL on end of file or error,Line-at-a-Time I/O,#include char *fputs(const char *str, FILE *fp); *str is a null-terminated string No need for line-at-a-time output. Return non-negative value if OK, EOF on error char *puts(const char *str); *str is a null-terminated string puts then wri

Return non-negative value if OK, EOF on error,Standard I/O Efficiency (98.5 MB & 3M lines),Program 5.1 Page 143 Copy stdin to stdout: getc putc Program 5.2 Page 144 Copy stdin to stdout: fgets fputs,Binary I/O,Objectives Read/write a structure at a time, which could contains null or

26、 float data10; if (fwrite(,Binary I/O,Not portable for programs using fread and fwrite The offset of a member in a structure can differ between compilers and systems (due to alignment). The binary formats for various data types, such as integers, could be different over different machines.,Positioni
