I have a file which contains 2^32
key/value pairs like that;
32410806935257552 7355088504912337885
32422108164434515 8864339902215816897

....
I need to read that file and get the 1000 lines
every time I need.
I am using the function below for this;
void setChunk(pair* pairs, int setNumber, FILE *file){
int start = setNumber * 1000;
int finish = start + 1000;
int count = 0;
int i = 0;
char line [c];
char *search = " ";
printf("chunk is set between %d and %d\n", start, finish);
if ( file != NULL ){
while (fgets(line, sizeof line, file) != NULL) /* read a line */
{
if (count >= start && count < finish)
{
pairs[i].key = strdup(strtok(line, search));
pairs[i].value = strdup(strtok(NULL, search));
i++;
}
count++;
}
}
}
I am taking the first 1000 thousands key/value
pair and write into the struct array (pairs)
with no problem. Then I try to get next one thousands pairs but, the key/value struct array stays the same. I couldn't update its content. What can be the reason for this?
note: setNumber
defines the which one thousands pairs I will take. If it is 0
, I get the lines between 0-1000
, if it is 18
, I get the lines 18000-19000
.
I'm calling setChunk funtion in a loop like this;
for(j=0; j<=fileNumber; j++){
if ( file[j] != NULL )
{
printf("%d. chunks is started to fill\n", j);
pairs[j] = malloc(1000 * sizeof(pair));
setChunk(pairs[j],setnumber[j],file[j]);
setnumber[j]+=1;
}
}
