Read a header and then a binary file?

by badger <mdekauwe@[EMAIL PROTECTED] > Jul 23, 2008 at 03:40 AM

Hi,

Im new to fortran and Im trying and (failing) to solve my little
problem. Any help would be much appreciated?!

Im trying to read a text header that I have appended to the top of a
binary file and then read the binary file

ie.

1
360
720
0
Blah blah blah

where blah is the start of the binary file.

I can't seem to work out how to read the binary part - i.e. skip over
the header bit. So far I have

PROGRAM read_binary
  IMPLICIT NONE

	INTEGER :: num_rows , num_cols , num_frames , sizeofbyte = 1
	INTEGER, ALLOCATABLE, DIMENSION (:) :: pft
	INTEGER :: junk(10)
	INTEGER :: i, stdin = 10, hdr_length = 4
	INTEGER :: ioerr = 0

	OPEN ( stdin, FILE = '/dev/stdin', STATUS = 'old', ACCESS = 'stream',
&
                    FORM =  'FORMATTED', IOSTAT = ioerr )
	IF ( ioerr /= 0 ) THEN
		PRINT *, "Error opening file"
		STOP
	END IF

	DO i = 1, hdr_length
		READ ( stdin, *, iostat = ioerr ) hdr_stuff(i)
		IF ( ioerr /= 0 ) THEN
			PRINT *, "Error reading file header"
			STOP
		END IF
	END DO

	num_frames = hdr_stuff(1)
	num_rows   = hdr_stuff(2)
	num_cols   = hdr_stuff(3)

	ALLOCATE ( pft(num_rows * num_cols * num_frames) )

	PRINT *, num_frames
	PRINT *, num_rows
	PRINT *, num_cols

	CLOSE ( stdin, IOSTAT = ioerr )
	IF ( ioerr /= 0 ) THEN
		PRINT *, "Error closing file"
		STOP
	END IF

	OPEN ( stdin, file = '/dev/stdin', form = 'unformatted', access =
'direct', &
				 recl =  sizeofbyte, iostat = ioerr )
	IF ( ioerr /= 0 ) THEN
		PRINT *, "Error opening file for bin"
		STOP
	END IF



END PROGRAM read_binary


As I said I think that the way I have approached it thus far is ok -
open file read header, close file, reopen file and try and read
binary. Only I have no idea how to read the binary part - I can't seem
to skip over the binary bit!!

Thanks.
