Convert Minecraft server world files into MCserver world files.

[rs2k]

Thanks for the info, I must have spent 4 hours trying to get that to work.

You can see this is commented out because it didn't work:
//if( fread( comp_data, compdlength, sizeof(unsigned char), f) != 1 ) { cout << "ERROR 1234 READING FROM FILE " << SourceFile <<endl; fclose(f); return false; } //actual compressed chunk data


and variations I tried:

fread( comp_data, sizeof(unsigned char), compdlength, f)
fread( comp_data, compdlength, sizeof(unsigned char), f)
fread( &comp_data, sizeof(unsigned char), compdlength, f)
fread( &comp_data, compdlength, sizeof(unsigned char), f)
fread( *comp_data, sizeof(unsigned char), compdlength, f)
fread( *comp_data, compdlength, sizeof(unsigned char), f)
fread( comp_data, 1, compdlength, f)
fread( comp_data, compdlength, 1, f)
fread( &comp_data, 1, compdlength, f)
fread( &comp_data, compdlength, 1, f)
fread( *comp_data, s1, compdlength, f)
fread( *comp_data, compdlength, 1, f)

I also tried hard coding different value for compdlength. The only way I could get it to work was byte by byte. It was a nightmare and I don't understand why it wouldn't work. I tried unsigned char, signed car, strings, etc.

I kept getting segmentation errors, ERROR 1234 READING FROM FILE, or sometimes it would would just do nothing. I have no clue why I couldn't get it to work. The way I originally had it looked like what you had.


I have NO clue why it wasn't working before, but I just changed it to this and now it's working just fine. IT must have been something else in the code causing the problem. (It was also sometime between 1:00 AM and 5:00 AM that I was working on it.)

Code:

char temparr[compdlength]; //can't get fread to read more than one char at a time into a char array... so that's what I'll do.  :(    At least it works.
                                if( fread( temparr, compdlength, 1, f) != 1 ) { cout << "ERROR rf22 READING FROM FILE " << SourceFile; fclose(f); return false; }
                                frloc = frloc + compdlength;

ehh, same sort of problems I faced while learning PHP. You spend hours beating your head against the table and pulling out your hair until you find the moment of retardation you placed into the code.
