How to read file from a tarball (.tar.gz) ?

[charlotte_dev]

I would like to read a binary file in a folder within a tarball file (.tar.gz) on labview without extracting the tarball. I have been searching online for OpenG documentation, but I couldn't find much help. Can someone please give me some direction on how I can begin my labview function? Any help is much appreciated. Thank you!

Windows 10 now has a built-in tar command.

You could extract just that one binary file using a filter in the extract command:

tar -xzvf filename.tar.gz <patterns>

So for you binary file, it could just be:

tar -xzvf filename.tar.gz foldername/binfilename

This will extract your binary file next to the tar.gz file.
