如何使用C或C ++读取FORTRAN二进制文件？

Question

I have FORTRAN 77 binary file (created on Sun Sparc machine,big endian). I want to read it on my little endian machine. I have come across this

http://paulbourke.net/dataformats/reading/

Paul has written these macros for C or C++, but I do not understand what they really do.

#define SWAP_2(x) ( (((x) & 0xff) << 8) | ((unsigned short)(x) >> 8) )
#define SWAP_4(x) ( ((x) << 24) | (((x) << 8) & 0x00ff0000) | \
         (((x) >> 8) & 0x0000ff00) | ((x) >> 24) )
#define FIX_SHORT(x) (*(unsigned short *)&(x) = SWAP_2(*(unsigned short *)&(x)))
#define FIX_LONG(x) (*(unsigned *)&(x) = SWAP_4(*(unsigned *)&(x)))
#define FIX_FLOAT(x) FIX_LONG(x)

I know that every record of the file contains contains

x,y,z,t,d,i

i is integer*2,all other variables are real*4. First 512 bytes hexdump

My code to read file

#include <endian.h>
#include <stdint.h>
#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>

int main() 
{
    FILE *file;
    char *buffer;
    char *rec;
    long fileLen;

    file = fopen("rec.in", "rb");


    fseek(file, 0, SEEK_END);
    fileLen=ftell(file);
    fseek(file, 0, SEEK_SET);

    buffer=(char *)malloc(fileLen+1);

    fread(buffer, fileLen, 1, file);
    fclose(file);
    free(buffer);

char *curr = buffer;
char *end = buffer + fileLen;

constexpr int LINE_SIZE = sizeof(float)*5 + sizeof(uint16_t); //based upon your "x,y,z,t,d,i" description

while(curr < end) {
    uint32_t temp = be32toh(*reinterpret_cast<uint32_t*>(*curr));
    float x = *reinterpret_cast<float*>(&temp);

    temp = be32toh(*reinterpret_cast<uint32_t*>(*(curr+sizeof(float))));
    float y = *reinterpret_cast<float*>(&temp);

    temp = be32toh(*reinterpret_cast<uint32_t*>(*(curr+2*sizeof(float))));
    float z = *reinterpret_cast<float*>(&temp);

    temp = be32toh(*reinterpret_cast<uint32_t*>(*(curr+3*sizeof(float))));
    float t = *reinterpret_cast<float*>(&temp);

    temp = be32toh(*reinterpret_cast<uint32_t*>(*(curr+4*sizeof(float))));
    float d = *reinterpret_cast<float*>(&temp);

    uint16_t i = be16toh(*reinterpret_cast<uint16_t*>(*(curr+5*sizeof(float))));

    curr += LINE_SIZE;

}

}

I got two errors r.cc: In function 'int main()':

r.cc:29:1: error: ‘constexpr’ was not declared in this scope
 constexpr int LINE_SIZE = sizeof(float)*5 + sizeof(uint16_t); //based upon your "x,y,z,t,d,i" description
 ^
r.cc:49:13: error: ‘LINE_SIZE’ was not declared in this scope
     curr += LINE_SIZE;

Answer 1

If you're reading the file on a linux machine, there are some library functions provided for this purpose in the endian.h header (documentation here ). To convert a 16-bit integer to host order (little-endian in your case):

uint16_t hostInteger = be16toh(bigEndianIntegerFromFile);

For floats, you can do something similar but incorporate reinterpretation:

float hostFloat = reinterpret_cast<float>(be32toh(reinterpret_cast<uint32_t>(bigEndianFloatFromFile)));

Or, if you read it as an unsigned int in the first place, you don't need the inner reinterpret_cast :

float hostFloat = reinterpret_cast<float>(be32toh(bigEndianUint32FromFile));

UPDATE: Given your code, you could read the file by inserting this between your fclose and free calls:

char *curr = buffer;
char *end = buffer + fileLen;

constexpr int LINE_SIZE = sizeof(float)*5 + sizeof(uint16_t); //based upon your "x,y,z,t,d,i" description

while(curr < end) {
    uint32_t temp = be32toh(*reinterpret_cast<uint32_t*>(*curr));
    float x = *reinterpret_cast<float*>(&temp);

    temp = be32toh(*reinterpret_cast<uint32_t*>(*(curr+sizeof(float))));
    float y = *reinterpret_cast<float*>(&temp);

    temp = be32toh(*reinterpret_cast<uint32_t*>(*(curr+2*sizeof(float))));
    float z = *reinterpret_cast<float*>(&temp);

    temp = be32toh(*reinterpret_cast<uint32_t*>(*(curr+3*sizeof(float))));
    float t = *reinterpret_cast<float*>(&temp);

    temp = be32toh(*reinterpret_cast<uint32_t*>(*(curr+4*sizeof(float))));
    float d = *reinterpret_cast<float*>(&temp);

    uint16_t i = be16toh(*reinterpret_cast<uint16_t*>(*(curr+5*sizeof(float))));

    curr += LINE_SIZE;

    ...
    //do something with these values
    ...
}
