plotting a binary file by using Qwt

Hi all,

I have a data that includes two columns that each columns has 5 points. first column is "time" and second column is related value of the time for a signal. But because of being in binary format, the protocol is : odd data is time and even data is value. for example I have below numbers in my binary file:

0001000300020002000300040004000700050001

green color is time. and it means:

time | value
0001 | 0003
0002 | 0002
0003 | 0004
0004 | 0007
0005 | 0001

please help me how can I plot this binary file by Qwt?

You have to "parse" your file first, so you become two arrays, one with time and second with values.
Then it is easy to pass these data to a Qwt curve object.

no i need my project to work fast whit out any parseing or converting

But you have to read the data from the file somehow.
Do it by 4 bytes (quint32 for example), pack them into two arrays and pass to the plot curve.

thanks, but 4 bytes are little. i need put them binary data) from file in "char c[1024]" and then cast each byte (each cell) of "c" to float and then plot all. please help me in this way.

You have 4 Byte time, 4 Byte value and so on.
Read them and append each to a QVector<double> and use
QwtPlotCurve::setSamples (const QVector< double > &xData, const QVector< double > &yData)
to plot it.

I don't know your file format, but you should. How could i help you with that.
