Reading bmp file for steganography
- by Shantanu Gupta
I am trying to read a bmp file in C++(Turbo). But i m not able to print binary stream.
I want to encode txt file into it and decrypt it.
How can i do this. I read that bmp file header is of 54 byte. But how and where should i append txt file in bmp file. ?
I know only Turbo C++, so it would be helpfull for me if u provide solution or suggestion related to topic for the same.
int main()
{
ifstream fr; //reads
ofstream fw; // wrrites to file
char c;
int random;
clrscr();
char file[2][100]={"s.bmp","s.txt"};
fr.open(file[0],ios::binary);//file name, mode of open, here input mode i.e. read only
if(!fr)
cout<<"File can not be opened.";
fw.open(file[1],ios::app);//file will be appended
if(!fw)
cout<<"File can not be opened";
while(!fr)
cout<<fr.get(); // error should be here. but not able to find out what error is it
fr.close();
fw.close();
getch();
}
This code is running fine when i pass txt file in binary mode
