Dear friends, I am trying hard to get rid of file reading and editing (as evident from my previous post) Here is a small code where I tried to open my file in a buffer and scan. Its small, 50 line code. I will be grateful if anybody kindly have a look and tell if this is really opening the file from buffer or still using the file. Please help.
void open_file(GtkWidget *widget, gpointer data){ GScanner *scanner; GHashTable *table; char* fd; gsize length; GError* error=NULL; GtkWidget *dialog; //, *entry; GtkFileFilter *filter; dialog = gtk_file_chooser_dialog_new("Open File", NULL, GTK_FILE_CHOOSER_ACTION_OPEN, GTK_STOCK_OPEN, GTK_RESPONSE_ACCEPT, GTK_STOCK_CANCEL, GTK_RESPONSE_CANCEL, NULL); filter = gtk_file_filter_new(); gtk_file_filter_set_name(filter, "All files (*.*)"); gtk_file_filter_add_pattern(filter, "*"); gtk_file_chooser_add_filter(GTK_FILE_CHOOSER(dialog), filter); filter = gtk_file_filter_new(); gtk_file_filter_set_name(filter, "Bibtex file (*.bib)"); gtk_file_filter_add_pattern(filter, "*.bib"); gtk_file_chooser_add_filter(GTK_FILE_CHOOSER(dialog), filter); gtk_file_chooser_set_filter(GTK_FILE_CHOOSER(dialog), filter); if (gtk_dialog_run(GTK_DIALOG(dialog)) == GTK_RESPONSE_ACCEPT) { filename = gtk_file_chooser_get_filename(GTK_FILE_CHOOSER(dialog)); gtk_list_store_clear (store); g_file_get_contents(filename, &fd, &length , &error); g_assert(!error); scanner = g_scanner_new (NULL); g_scanner_input_text (scanner, fd, CHAR_BUFF); table = g_hash_table_new_full (g_str_hash, g_str_equal, g_free, g_free); do { g_hash_table_remove_all (table); parse_entry (scanner, table); output_entry (table); g_scanner_peek_next_token (scanner); } while (scanner->next_token != G_TOKEN_EOF && scanner->next_token != G_TOKEN_ERROR); /* finsish parsing */ g_scanner_destroy (scanner); g_hash_table_destroy (table); gtk_label_set_text(GTK_LABEL(flabel), filename); gtk_widget_destroy(dialog); } else gtk_widget_destroy(dialog); } _______________________________________________ gtk-app-devel-list mailing list gtk-app-devel-list@gnome.org https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gtk-app-devel-list
