Now that I want to use some complex meshes, and i am starting to learn how to put .obj vertex, index,UV,normals info in a D3D10_SUBRESOURCE_DATA.
I dont want to load my meshes from a .obj dirtectly, I want them to just be in a file were i just have to do this fast and simple thing:

D3D10_SUBRESOURCE_DATA InitData;

FILE * file;
fp = fopen("mesh.mesh","rb");

fread(vertices,sizeof(VERTEXCHUNKPART),1,file);

InitData.pSysMem = &vertices;

Is this possible?
If its possible, how to make the file, lets say i just have a mesh of 2 vertex with position (0,0,0)and (1,1,1)
so i have a text file with just this:
2 //because of 2 vertices
000
111
how can i convert that text into the file that can be loaded fast and simple.

FINAL EDIT
Now i see(yes I am stupid), my real question is having for example

SimpleVertex vertices[] =
{
D3DXVECTOR3( -1.0f, 1.0f, 0.0f ),
D3DXVECTOR3( 1.0f, 1.0f, 0.0f ),
D3DXVECTOR3( -1.0f, -1.0f, 0.0f ),
D3DXVECTOR3( 1.0f, -1.0f, 0.0f ),
};

how can i output vertices in to a file directly, outputting that chunk of memory directly into a file

if you are reading binary just write the data binary to a file.
you know how you defined the file so you make the rules for it.
