binaryfiles

Github has this download link on the repositories. How can I add binary distributions to this list? I cannot find any info on help.github, so a link to some documentation would be helpful. On Dec 11, 2012 "Upload Releases" functionality aka "Downloads" was deprecated. https://github.com/blog/1302-goodbye-uploads Update : On July 2, 2013 GitHub team announced a new "Releases" feature as a replacement for "Downloads" https://github.com/blog/1547-release-your-software There is a new kid in town: https://bintray.com/ * I am not affiliated How to add files to the release Simply follow the "releases

I'm using a build script to compile several C# projects. The binary output is copied to a result folder, overwriting the previous version of the files, and then added/committed to subversion. I noticed that the binary output of the compilation are different even when there was no change to the source or environment at all. How is this possible? Isn't the binary result supposed to be exactly equal for the same input? I'm not intentionally using any kind of special timestamps anywhere, but does the compiler (Microsoft, the one included in .NET 4.0) possibly add timestamps itself? The reason I'm

I have a sequence of bytes that I have to search for in a set of Binary files using Java. Example: I'm searching for the byte sequence DEADBEEF (in hex) in a Binary file. How would I go about doing this in Java? Is there a built-in method, like String.contains() for Binary files? janko No, there is no built-in method to do that. But, directly copied from HERE (with two fixes applied to the original code): /** * Knuth-Morris-Pratt Algorithm for Pattern Matching */ class KMPMatch { /** * Finds the first occurrence of the pattern in the text. */ public static int indexOf(byte[] data, byte[]

I am facing a small problem. I have a struct, which has a vector. Note that the vector is dynamic per every iteration. Now, in a particular iteration, how do I store the struct which contains a vector of size n to a binary file? Also, when retrieving, assume that I know how the size of the vector, how to I retrieve from the binary file, the struct variable containing the vector of all the stored elements? I am able to store something to the binary file (as I can see the size increasing when writing), but when I am trying to retrieve back the elements, I am getting size of vector to be zero.

Lately I've been asked to write a function that reads the binary file into the std::vector<BYTE> where BYTE is an unsigned char . Quite quickly I came with something like this: #include <fstream> #include <vector> typedef unsigned char BYTE; std::vector<BYTE> readFile(const char* filename) { // open the file: std::streampos fileSize; std::ifstream file(filename, std::ios::binary); // get its size: file.seekg(0, std::ios::end); fileSize = file.tellg(); file.seekg(0, std::ios::beg); // read the data: std::vector<BYTE> fileData(fileSize); file.read((char*) &fileData[0], fileSize); return fileData

When the binary files, swfs, jars and flvs are changed locally, and I try to pull in changes, git tries to merge them and reports conflict. And then, I branch to a temporary branch, and commit the local changed binary files, and merge them back after the pull with recursive theirs strategy. -- Too much work. Is there a way to tell git, not to attempt merging binary files and ask me which one of these versions to use. VonC You could set up a merge drive in a .gitattributes file (only for a given subtree, only for some file types) See this question for instance (or this one ). # choose the name
