New file format

Postby Silvio.Falconi » Sun Nov 20, 2022 11:33 am

I saved a table in an ascii file with the separator character "," or ";" but I would like to protect this file and create a particular and personalized format that no one could reopen but me with my little program
of course I need the save function and to load the file and once saved

Do not provide the file name as the first paramter. Keep it NIL.
Then the method returns CsvText.
Code: Select all  Expand view  RUN

cCsvText := oBrw:ToCSV( NIL, , .f., , , "," )
cCsvText := ENCRYPT( cCsvText, cKey )
HB_MEMOWRIT( cFile, cCsvText )
 


No need to modify the classes of xbrowse.

Dear Silvio,

You should use Harbour's HB_BLOWFISHENCRYPT() if you want the max security

FWH Encrypt() and Decrypt() are quite simple, enough for many people, but an expert could break it

I Wish create a new file format but i not knor how make It
to start I can settle for the encript /decriot functions, but I wanted to save all the information I need in a single file: in reality they are matrices for creating betting systems for the lotto scheme title, rows, columns, guarantee, points and then the whole scheme that could have up to a maximum of ten columns but infinite rows depending on the numbers that are played if they are placed in doubles or triplets or quadruplets, five, _, sevenths, eights, novines and tens.

Dear Silvio,

Save the info into a Harbour hash, then generate a JSON file from it, then encrypt it to disk

Then you can read it back, decrypt it and recover the JSON and then convert it into a Harbour hash again

Thats what I would do :-)

for Now
File ascii cripted
name of file
NXX_GXEX_LXX.TBL

sample : N08_G2E2_L03.TBL -> 8 numbers, Guarantee 2, Points 2 , scheme in triplets

the problem is when I select the numbers sample :

Image

the procedure should search for a 9-digit scheme and list the schemes found
on a xbrowse two colomuns if the procedure found that schemes it must write
"should convert the abbreviation N08_G2E2_L03 to
scheme | columns
"guarantee 2 numbers with 8 numbers" | 3
and it's not easy
