Read the binary content of a file and reverse its content in C++

I created a simple program that can read a text file line by line, then reverse itss content, I want to make the same thing with other file extension like (zip,rar,jpg, doc, pdf...) My real intention is to create a file "corrupter/de-corrupter" program, by reversing the binary content of the file, so it can not be opened by acrobat or winzip etc...

Questions:

  • When the file is simple text, I can read and print all the lines, when it is a pdf or zip, it only prints a word or two of gibberish binary data, how can I get all the lines, and print them?

  • CodeBlocks gives me an error, there is a problem with converting from string to char, how to fix this problem?

This is what I have so far:

#include <iostream>
#include <fstream>
#include <string>
#include <cstring>

using namespace std;

fstream file;
string line;

void reverseLine(char message[]);

void reverseLine(char message[])
{
    char reversed;
    int i = strlen(message)  -1;
    while (i>=0)
        {
        reversed = reversed + message[i];
        i = i -1;
        }
    cout<<message<<endl;
    cout<<reversed<<endl;
}


int main()
{
int numLines=0;
file.open("g:/example.txt");

if (!file.is_open())
{
    cout<<"error in opening the file !"<<endl;
}
else
    {
        cout<<"success in opening the file !"<<endl;
        cout<<"--------------------------------------"<<endl;
        while (!file.eof()){
               // for (int i=0; i<100; i++)
                {
                    cout<<(getline(file,line))<<endl;
                    cout<<line<<endl;
                    //reverseLine(getline(file,line)); //<==dont work :(
                    numLines++;

                }
        }
        cout<<numLines<<endl;
        file.close();
    }
 }

After a lot of research, I created some functions "copied some code :p" that can do: - find all the hard drives partitions. - search in a drive by file extension - open file in binary mode and reverse its content and save the reversed file.

The problem: * I want to send the result of " getDrives" to the getFilelisting" function and open the files found, reverse them and save after.

what I tried to do:

send the "getDrives" result into an array so I can use it in a for loop. send the found file into the "file.open" but It does not work. Here is the new code, I hope someone can help link the functions all together.

#include <iostream>
#include <fstream>
#include <string>
#include <cstring>
#include <windows.h>

using namespace std;




fstream file;           //file to open
fstream outFile;        //the reversed file
string line;            // read lines

int numLines=0;         //number of lines read



void reverseLine()          //fonction for reversing the line                      
{
while (!file.eof())         // read line by line untile the end of the  file                   
{
string reversed;
getline(file,line);
int i = line.length()  -1;
while (i>=0)
{
reversed = reversed + line[i];
i = i -1;
if (i < 0)
{
outFile<<reversed<<endl;
}
}
//numLines++;
}
}


char getDrives()        //find partitions.
            {
            DWORD drives = GetLogicalDrives();
                     for (int i=0; i<26; i++)
                     {
                        if( ( drives & ( 1 << i ) ) )
                        {
                           //CHAR driveName[] = { TEXT('A') + i, TEXT(':'), TEXT('\'), TEXT('�') };

                           CHAR driveName[] = { TEXT('A') + i, TEXT('�')  };

                           cout<<driveName<<endl;


                        }

                     }

            }




 void GetFileListing(string directory, string fileFilter, bool  recursively = true) // fonction that searches in a drive by one file type, I want it to search for all drives with multiple file extensions
 {
 if (recursively)
 GetFileListing(directory, fileFilter, false);

 {

 }

              else
              {
                if (!recursively)
                {
                    cout << directory + string(FindFileData.cFileName) <<  endl;
                }

                while (FindNextFile(hFind, &FindFileData) != 0)
                {

                  {

                    }
                  }
                }

                DWORD dwError = GetLastError();
                FindClose(hFind);
                if (dwError != ERROR_NO_MORE_FILES)
