STL files into readable text

[raven-worx]

@Mani_kandan
to me it looks like you are missing some basic fundamentals in programming/C++/Qt
and therefore IMO this task seems a bit too much to begin with

[Mani_kandan]

@raven-worx any one knows how to encrypt and decrypt the file in qt I m using openssl library for that

@Mani_kandan in this code i m reading the file and encrypting the contents . I need a solution encrypt and decrypt the complete file without reading

[jsulm]

@Mani_kandan said in STL files into readable text:

I need a solution encrypt and decrypt the complete file without reading

What? How do you want to encrypt/decrypt a file without reading it?
Can you please try to explain better when asking?

[Mani_kandan]

@jsulm in the above code i m reading the contents inside the file and doing encryption and decryption. I have to know how to encrypt a complete and store its as encrypted file and decrypt the encrypted file .

[jsulm]

@Mani_kandan I really fail to understand what exact problem you have!
You are already reading whole file (though as text which is wrong for binary files).
You also write a file already.
So what EXACT problem/question do you have?

[Mani_kandan]

@jsulm I don't know how to explain it, but I need to encrypt the file as a file

[jsulm]

@Mani_kandan Sorry I give up as I have no idea what the problem is!
You are already reading the file, encrypting its content and writing encrypted content into another file.
No idea what you are asking...

[JonB]

@Mani_kandan
As @jsulm and I have been saying. If you have data in a file you want to encrypt you have to read the file to get the data to encrypt, so there is no point keep asking whether you can do it without reading the file content.

If you want to save the encrypted data back to a file you can do that. If you want the encrypted data to end up back in the same file as you read the encrypted data from: either read all the file content into memory, encrypt it, and write it back to the file you originally read from; or, read it a chunk at a time from the original file, write it encrypted a chunk at a time to a new, temporary file, and rename the new file to the original file right at the end.
