- reading Mouse MOVE events without moving pointerHi,
Does anyone know of way of setting up a java app so that a instead of
mouse movements being used to update the pointer, the mouse move could
be used to update, say, the viewport of a document?
An example in more detail;
what I want to do is use the mouse MOVE event that is caused by the
movement of the mouse, but not update the pointer position (I would
like the pointer to remain still or be invisble) but to allow me to
update the viewport on a document. ie, user presses a 'trigger' key
to put the code into a receptive mode, then all subsequent mouse
movements (triggering mouse MOVE events) can be captured and used to
update the viewport location- ie, mouse moves left, pointer remains
still, viewport moves left.
I don't know if this is possible due to the OS independance that java
has. Maybe a solution involves the glass-pane in some (I am not
familiar with the glass- yet. It is one of my avenues to search...)
Thanks for any ideas... mucho thanks for any code examples....

- Extract all dates from text documentHi,
1) I have a bunch of documents, some of which may contain dates.
2) For each document, I would like to identify all existing dates.
3) The dates exist in multiple formats.
Example: (May 5, 1932), (5,5,1932), (5/5/1932), (5-5-1942) etc.
4) I would like to process a single document very quickly. In other
words, i'm looking for a time efficient solution.
Are there any existing parsers that take in a generic text string and
return a collection of dates found in the text string?
Are there any existing flex/cup files that perform this task?
Thanks.

- Oracle JDBC and AppletHello
I have an applet which download files to local computer from database
(files are saved as BLOB fileds).
Applet is signed bud when I want to get connection to Oracle (method
getConnection from OracleDataSource) i have following error:
java.security.AccessControlException: access denied
(java.util.PropertyPermission oracle.jserver.version read)
Applet working only when I running it from JBuilder. Otherwise the
error comes.
I can't see other posibility than using applets because number of
files is very big. For example 20 000 to take at once, so the normal
download method via http is not good here. Also the size of one
download may be up to 1GB.
Thanks for help

- coordinating eventsHi there,
I'm having difficulty trying to coordinate the sequence of events for
populating a JTree with data received from a server app. I'm so-o-o-o close
and yet no banana! It's proving to be very tricky processing. I could use
some help in trying to make this work properly. Perhaps you may understand
better as to why my efforts are being thwarted by the either the JTree
object or its DefaultTreeModel?
Here's the setup:
1) I have a server app that, when requested from the client app, will
provide a child count on any given directory node on the server. Also, it
will serve up the names of each child node for any given node upon request.
2) The client app contains a JTree object that I'm trying to initially
populate with the root node. Subsequently, the plan is to dynamically
populate any directory node in the JTree whenever the treeWillExpand( ... )
event is triggered as the user tries to expand on a node.
3) Throughout my code I have a number of System.out.println( ... )
statements so that I can see what sequence of events are taking place as the
client app makes requests to the server and receives replies back from the
server. Also, some println(...) statements in some key methods which you'll
see.
4) The sequence of events is supposed to go like so:
i) root node is created
ii) as the root node is passed as a parameter when creating the JTree
object
the getChildCount( ) method of the root node [type DefaultTreeNode
extends DefaultMutableTreeNode ]
is called.
public int getChildCount()
{
if (!hasChildren)
{
defineChildNodes();
}
return(super.getChildCount());
}
iii) Since the root node initially has no children, getChildCount( )
then calls the method
defineChildNodes( ).
protected void defineChildNodes()
{
hasChildren = true;
ref.requestChildCountFromServer(this);
}
As you can see, defineChildNodes( ) simply sets the flag
hasChildren to true then
calls a method requestChildCountFromServer(this) which exists in a
class called Response
referred here by the variable "ref". Also in the Response class
there exists the method
populateTree( ) which initially created the root node and JTree
objects:
protected void populateTree(String NodeName)
{
//System.out.println("Entering populatTree() method");
//This could take a while, so change the cursor icon
//ref.setCursor(Cursor.getPredefinedCursor(Cursor.WAIT_CURSOR));
try
{
String separator = "";
if(ref.serverOS.equals("Windows"))
separator = "\\";
else
separator = "/";
rootNode = new DefaultTreeNode(NodeName, true, separator);
expandingNode = rootNode;
String rootPath = getLeadingPath(ref.rootPath);
rootNode.setLeadingPath(rootPath);
rootNode.setResponseReference(this);
jTree1 = new JTree(rootNode);
jTree1.setRootVisible(true);
jTree1.setShowsRootHandles(true);
jTree1.collapseRow(0);
MouseListener popupListener = new PopupListener(ref);
jTree1.addMouseListener(popupListener);
//Listen to our own expand/collapse events to keep the labels in
sync
jTree1.addTreeWillExpandListener(this);
}
catch(Exception e){System.out.println("Exception in populateTree()
method"); e.printStackTrace();return;}
....
....
}
iv) The requestChildCountFromServer( ) method then makes a request to
the server app for
the child count for the root node.
v) I have a separate thread running that listens for all responses
from the server
called ResponseListener. In its run( ) method I have the
following code:
else if(connected == ref.ref.SENDING_CHILDCOUNT)
{
System.out.println("Received message: ReceivingChildCount");
ref.expandingNode.numChildren = input.readInt();
//expandingNode.setReceivedChildCount(true);
ref.ref.imageLabel.setIcon(ref.ref.blank);
ref.ref.textLabel.setText("");
}
When the root node was originally created I set a reference to it
using a variable
named expandingNode. Here you can see that the root node's
instance variable
named numChildren is set to a value read in by the DataInputStream
object
named input.
vi) The requestChildCountFromServer( ) method in turn calls another
method in the
Response class named RequestChildrenFromServer(String path).
RequestChildrenFromServer(String path) method requests from the
server the names
of all the child nodes for the root node.
vii) ResponseListener then receives a response from the server:
else if(connected == ref.ref.SENDING_TREE_DATA)
{
System.out.println("Received message: SendingTreeData");
ref.expandingNode.TreeDataIncoming = true;
ref.expandingNode.ReceiveChildrenFromServer(input);
ref.ref.imageLabel.setIcon(ref.ref.blank);
ref.ref.textLabel.setText("");
}
Here you can see that the root nodes method named
ReceiveChildrenFromServer(input) is then called
while passing it a reference to the DataInputStream so that the
method can
read in the names of the child nodes as they come in over the
wire.
viii) The root node's method ReceiveChildrenFromServer(input) then
begins receiving the
names of each child node, creates a new DefaultTreeNode object
for each child node
and adds it to the root node, seen below:
protected void ReceiveChildrenFromServer(DataInputStream input)
{
System.out.println("Entering ReceiveChildrenFromServer()");
DefaultTreeNode child = null;
String name = "";
try
{
//ref.ref.setCursor(Cursor.getPredefinedCursor(Cursor.WAIT_CURSOR));
//System.out.println("numChildren = " + numChildren);
int nodeType = 0;//default
//iterate through each of the children as they come in
//from the server.
for(int i = 0; i < numChildren; i++)
{
name = input.readUTF(); //get the name
System.out.println("child node: " + name);
child = new DefaultTreeNode(name); //create a new
child node
//determine if this node is a directory
//or a file. Empty directories are denoted
//as having (nodeType == -1)
nodeType = input.readInt();
//System.out.println("node type: " + nodeType);
if(nodeType == 0)
{
//Since a file is a leaf node
//we won't be needing to continue
//reading in nodes for it.
child.setResponseReference(ref);
child.setAllowsChildren(false);
child.setHasChildren(false);
child.setLeadingPath(getWholeServerPath());
if(ref.ref.serverOS.equals("Windows"))
child.setSeparator("\\");
else
child.setSeparator("/");
}
else if(nodeType == -1)
{
child.setResponseReference(ref);
child.setAllowsChildren(true); //It's an empty
directory
child.setHasChildren(false);
child.setLeadingPath(getWholeServerPath());
if(ref.ref.serverOS.equals("Windows"))
child.setSeparator("\\");
else
child.setSeparator("/");
}
else
{
child.setResponseReference(ref);
child.setAllowsChildren(true); //It's a directory
with child nodes
child.setHasChildren(true);
child.setLeadingPath(getWholeServerPath());
if(ref.ref.serverOS.equals("Windows"))
child.setSeparator("\\");
else
child.setSeparator("/");
}
this.insert(child,i);
}//end for loop
//ref.ref.setCursor(Cursor.getPredefinedCursor(Cursor.DEFAULT_CURSOR));
}//end try
catch(IOException ioe){ioe.printStackTrace();}
catch(NullPointerException npe){npe.printStackTrace();}
}//end method
IT IS HERE THAT I RUN INTO PROBLEMS!!!!
All the code you see compiles fine. What I found annoying is that, at
run-time, the sequence of events were as I depict them here until I start
reading in the names of the childnodes with the
ReceiveChildrenFromServer(...) method. While it is going through its for
loop, mysteriously the method getChildCount( ) is called again, which in
turn calls defineChildNodes( ), which in turn calls
requestChildCountFromServer(...), which interrupts the processing of the for
loop in ReceiveChildrenFromServer(...) . Here is the read out from the
console to prove it:
***************************************

*****************************************
Ultimately, I wind up with a root node being displayed in the JTree that
only has maybe five or six child nodes displayed when there should be 26
child nodes.
For further clarity here are the methods requestChildCountFromServer(...)
and RequestChildrenFromServer(...):
public void requestChildCountFromServer(DefaultTreeNode node)
{
System.out.println("Entering requestChildCountFromServer");
String name = "";
try
{
//ref.ref.setCursor(Cursor.getPredefinedCursor(Cursor.WAIT_CURSOR));
output.writeInt(ref.PATH);
output.flush();
output.writeUTF(node.getWholeServerPath());
output.flush();
output.writeInt(ref.REQUEST_CHILD_COUNT);
output.flush();
System.out.println("waiting for response...");
timer1 = new ChildCountTimer(node);
timer1.start();
timer1.join();
System.out.println("got ChildCount: " + node.numChildren);
if(node.numChildren > 0)
{
//NodeExpanding = false; //reset
RequestChildrenFromServer(node.getWholeServerPath());
//Set up TreeDataTimer so that we know we have a
//response from the server.
timer2 = new TreeDataTimer(node);
timer2.start();
timer2.join();
}
//ref.ref.setCursor(Cursor.getPredefinedCursor(Cursor.DEFAULT_CURSOR));
}
catch(InterruptedException ie){}
catch(IOException ioe){ioe.printStackTrace();}
catch(NullPointerException npe){npe.printStackTrace();}
}
protected void RequestChildrenFromServer(String path)
{
System.out.println("Entering RequestChildrenFromServer()");
//Request Children from server
try
{
//ref.ref.setCursor(Cursor.getPredefinedCursor(Cursor.WAIT_CURSOR));
output.writeInt(ref.PATH);
output.flush();
System.out.println("path is: " + path);
output.writeUTF(path);
output.flush();
//Sending REQUEST_CHILDREN should cause a response
//from the server: SENDING_TREE_DATA
output.writeInt(ref.REQUEST_CHILDREN);
output.flush();
//ref.ref.setCursor(Cursor.getPredefinedCursor(Cursor.DEFAULT_CURSOR));
}
catch(IOException ioe){ioe.printStackTrace();}
System.out.println("Finished calling server for children");
}
I realize this post is rather lengthy, however, I didn't know how else to
explain my dilemma with this project. If you need more information, just
ask.

- OLAP & OLTP schemas and Java App ServerHi,
(I hope this is the right group to post this. If not I apologize and
would appreciate pointers.)
We have a Websphere Applicaiton server for our application. We plan to
have a database that is part relational and part star on DB2 UDB. We
will need an OLAP tool and may use BRIO.
Some questions on this approach:
1. What is the best way to access the OLAP schema from Java (we plan
to use hibernate but are concerned about its suitability for star
schemas).
Some things that I could think of are:
- Use hibernate on the star schema (not sure if this is the best)
- Create as many materialized views as necessary and use hibernate
- Use java objects running on the DBs JVM (db optimized jvm implying
better performance?)
2. Is Brio the right tool to use for this scenario?
I ask because we can't have direct integration with the J2EE
applicaiton server (We have to give the user a different login page to
brio to see the reports. But they may take hours to produce.)
3. What are your experiences in combining star and relational tables
in the same database?
4. Any thoughts on using DB2 OLAP server? Apparently it has reporting
capabilities and Java support, but unsure if it has any advantages
over Brio.
Thanks in advance,
Naga

- casting from int to byte problemit looks like I have a strange problem.
I have a small class with several byte 'properties'
and I put a values into them from int values casting them to byte..
but for some values (like 143), casting result (with (byte)) is -113???
it's the same with 147 casted to -109...
and it should be a byte value (means, there should be no negative values)..
value is lowered for 256
why?
did I missed something?

What means "recover the ram from a static class object"? What do you mean
"recover"? I think there is not static class object -- only static class
members.
Do you know where can I find a sample dealing with how to write a customized
ClassLoader with the functions as you mentioned?

- openGL java and X - server: a crashHy folks,
I didn't know exactly where to post, in the end I decided for this
forum, since we are talking about java, GL4java on linux environment.
We are developing a java interface for the GIS GRASS
(http://grass.itc.it) using GL4java calls for raster visualization.
I'm not the developer that works on the GL part. On his computer
everything compiles and works alright.
When I run the application, when the first GL call comes (i assume
so), the X server shuts down and restarts. In the /var/log/message the
only line that defines what happened, is:
kdm[2232]: Server for display :0 terminated unexpectedly
Nothing else!
I use Suse 9 (I upgraded from 8.2 hoping to solve that problem, but no
way) which a Toshiba Satellite 5200-801 which loads an NVIDIA GeForce4
460 Go.
I downloaded and installed the drivers supplied by Nvidia and they
work perfect for everything but this.
I know NVIDIA to be unstable with linux nowadays, but I can't work
this way!
Has anyone encountered the same or similar problem?
Regards,
Andrea

- How to Fail at Software DevelopmentHello,
The book "How to Fail at Software Develoopment" is about all the
strange and funny things people do in the name of developing software.
I worked in software development for over 20 years and found silly
things that were being done in the name of software development were
being repeated again and again. As a matter of fact, most things that
cause software projects to fail are forever being repeated. And you
can spot the symptoms if you know what to look for.
Most people running software projects don't have much software
experience, so their inventions are usually not new. They rediscover
the same mistakes over and over again. It turned out to be a book of
very funny scenarios--some I lived through, and some were lived
through by others.
Those who don't know the history of software failure are doomed to
repeat it. You can find the book on Amazon or wherever.

- Windows styleHI! I'm developing an application that is going tu run on windows XP
Professinal, and I want that the buttons, combo boxes etc every
component that I use, looks like a windows component, not like a swing
button for example. I don`t know if anyone understands me.
I'm using NetBeans IDE, (using jdk 1-4-2).
When I am designing my form and I drag and drop a button for example,
it has a rounded shape, like a normal windows button, but when I
compile and run my project, the button is not rounded anymore, and
doesn't looks like a Windows Button.
What can I do??

java-programmer, How to listen out for a stream of data coming from (web)server
Hello
I have an applet that connects to a server (same location as web server) and
connects to a server on a socket. This all works fine for sending commands
to this server. But the server can send data to the client at any moment in
time. So how do I listen out for the activity? do I launch a separate thread
that sits listening for incoming data?
What is the way to do it?

Or no. Another approach is to have the other thread also be a "sender" to the
host, but the server only replies when it has something to say. This saves
having to open a listening port on the client side, something that can hurt
when it bangs into a firewall.
It also means that the server doesn't have to know or hunt for ports on the
client. It just replies to a client that has declared itself ready for
instruction. This simplifies the server's code.
The server pseudo-code would be something like:
Set < Client > clients;
listen on ServerSocket
get a "READY FOR INSTRUCTION" connection from client foo
clients.add( foo );
...
when server has something to say to foo:
reply( foo, msg );
clients.remove( foo );

Right, if the client-server protocol is a "take turns to speak" type of
deal, you can save yourself some headaches using the method Lew proposed.
However, if the server can send data to the client at any moment in time,
having a seperate thread sitting around and listening for incoming data
sounds like a good idea to me.
In the tutorial I linked to, there's an example of the client opening a
socket to the server (thus bypassing most firewall issues), and then using
that socket for both input and output.

The approach which I am trying out at the moment is for my applet to launch
a separate thread to handle the socket communication. The server can send
information at any moment in time as you say.
But if I click on say a button in the applet, the button needs to send some
command to the server. How do I send this command to the separate thread I
have spun off?
Sorry this is probably a really basic Java question but I am a beginner. Do
I need to somehow post a message to the thread spun off?

Lookup the "Producer/Consumer" problem. Your applet thread is the
producer, producing messages which it will put onto a message-queue. The
socket-handling thread is the consumer, removing messages from that queue,
and sending it out to the server.

Oh, it was just a quick example, there supposed to be done something
with myvalue later in the loop. The point was, myvalue is only needed
inside the loop and not outsite.
int myvalue=0;
for (int i=0;i<10;i++) {
myvalue=calculate(i);
.. do something with myvalue
}
.. myvalue no longer needed
for (int i=0;i<10;i++) {
int myvalue=calculate(i);
.. do something with myvalue
}
..my value not needed anymore
I believe this example is somewhere on the web too, but I forgot where
(probably javasoft.com or javaworld.com).

- Passing large C buffers to Java (via JNI) without copying?I'm trying to determine whether this is even possible... I have a
_very_ large buffer malloc'd on my C heap that I would like to hand
over to Java, preferably as a Byte[]. So far, every example of this
that I have come across involves _copying_ the data from my C buffer
into java storage. Is there any way to avoid this expensive (very
expensive in my case) operation?

- commons-logging: runtime change of propertiesHi,
I try to use commons-logging with the logs methods of J2SE 1.4.2 to
generalize the logging in my appl.
Doesn't exists a method to upload the defaul file properties of J2SE
at run time and not usig the -D option at startup?
Exists e method to change the propeties of the logger at runtime? for
example the output file path...
Thanks Cristian

- Sun's OpenJDK in Debian?Hi,
I'm surprised that this wasn't discussed already in the past on this list
(or in the BTS of some important java packages), but what is the status
of Sun's Java architecture in Debian?
It is licensed under GPL2 and should be compatible with DFSG.
As far as I know only a few components are not yet freely available,
especially all which are subject to the Assembly Exception
(http://openjdk.java.net/legal/exception-modules-2007-05-08.html,
http://www.sun.com/software/opensource/java/faq.jsp).
Is this the main blocker for accepting OpenJDK in Debian? Would it be
possible to just omit the binary modules or to replace these with free
implementations from other free projects?
Please CC: me.

It's the princple of least surprise. When you design something, you want
to surprise your users as little as possible. To me, it's quite surprising
that 5 refers to June and not May, for example. For array-indices, starting
at 1 or 0 is okay (both makes sense), but -3 or 42 or anything else would be
quite surprising as well.

- RSA ciphered streams problemHi. I've got a problem with the RSA ciphered streams. Here is a piece of
code that generates an exception :
KeyPairGenerator gen = KeyPairGenerator.getInstance("RSA");
System.out.print("Generating the RSA key pair...");
KeyPair kp = gen.generateKeyPair();
System.out.println("done.");
Cipher ci = Cipher.getInstance("RSA");
ci.init(Cipher.ENCRYPT_MODE,kp.getPublic());
Cipher cid = Cipher.getInstance("RSA");
cid.init(Cipher.DECRYPT_MODE,kp.getPrivate());
CipherOutputStream cout = new CipherOutputStream(new
FileOutputStream("rsa.dat"),ci);
ObjectOutputStream oout = new ObjectOutputStream(cout);
oout.writeObject(kp.getPrivate().toString());
oout.flush();
oout.close();
CipherInputStream cin = new CipherInputStream(new
FileInputStream("rsa.dat"),cid);
ObjectInputStream oin = new ObjectInputStream(cin); // Exception here
System.out.println(oin.readObject());
oin.close();
The exception is EOFException and it's not very weird because the file
"rsa.dat" is empty after writing to it!! It happens only if object is "big"
( when I try to write some short String, for example, everything's ok ).
When I tried to write an unciphered output ( without using
CipheredOutputStream ) it went well of course.
My question is : can anybody tell me why it happens? What should I do to
write "big" objects to ciphered output stream using ObjectOutputStream
properly?
Thanks for any requests.

- Putting certificates in ldapI have openldap running, and I was able to put java objects there like
so:
Integer i = new Integer( 28420 );
ctx.bind( "cn=myRandomInt", i );
Suppose I already have the cert inside java.security.cert.Certificate
. What would be the correct syntax to add this cert with ctx.bind ? Do
I need to explicitly add this userCertificate;binary to slapd.conf? My
schema is:
database ldbm
#suffix "dc=my-domain,dc=com"
suffix "o=certStore"
#rootdn "cn=Manager,dc=my-domain,dc=com"
rootdn "cn=certManager,o=certStore"
# Cleartext passwords, especially for the rootdn, should
# be avoid. See slappasswd(8) and slapd.conf(5) for details.
# Use of strong authentication encouraged.
rootpw secret
# The database directory MUST exist prior to running slapd AND
# should only be accessible by the slapd/tools. Mode 700 recommended.

- Opening Image files with IE as default always ( using Browser Launcher)Hi,
I have downloaded some image files by connecting to a URL and I am
trying open that image file using BrowserLauncher.
I am using windows xp and the default one to open image files is
windows picture and Fax Viewer.
I could not see the image in Internet Explorer when I am trying to
open the image files. But when I set in the properties of image files
from "windows picture and Fax Viewer" to "Open with internet
Explorer", I could see the image.
Some trasfer details..
File Type : .jpg
HTTP/1.0 200 Ok
MIME-version: 1.0
Content-Length: 297362
Content-type: application/jpg
I tried to change in http headers , but could not succeed in opening
the image.
can anybody suggest me that,
I change the properties of the image file ( or http headers) such that
it should be open with internet explorer by default,after the image
downloaded.
Any suggestions or help is appreciated.
Regards,
Hari.

- Action or Subclass method?I need to know which is the PROPER way of handling this situation:
I would like to be able to cascade all the JInternalFrames in a
JDesktopPane.
Should I create a
1) cascade() method in a subclass of JDesktopPane? or
2) create a CascadeAction (a subclass of AbstractAction) and pass a
reference of the JDesktopPane?
Both ways work. HOWEVER, which is the PROPER Object Oriented solution?

- JMF, FrameAccess, sound, faster processingI used JMF's example class FrameAccess to process audio/video files. The
Processor processes data according to the frame rate specified in the file.
1. Is there a way to do this processing faster? I don't want to view (and listen
to) those vids, just process them. I'm ready to use 100% of the CPU if need be.
2. As the file is processed, a sound is generated and can be listened to through
a sound card's output. Is this entirely necessary? I'm asking because I want to
process files simultaneously and that would result in a cacophony. Besides, say
I want to listen to my own music while the processing takes place.
3. How does one extract sound from a video file? Can it be extracted as a whole?
Can it be broken down into chunks according to extracted image frames? How? In
which formats? I'm stuck in an implementation of Codec interface, much like
JMF's example PreProcessCodec.java, but with AudioFormat (supported ins and
outs), so I can access a sound frame through a Buffer, but I don't know how to
proceed.
Thanks for any insight.

- Question regarding Java's OOP implementation.According to Wikipedia, one of the core concepts of OOP is
Encapsulation; being defined as follows: "ensuring that users of an
object cannot change the internal state of the object in unexpected
ways; only the object's own internal methods are allowed to access its
state. Each object exposes an interface that specifies how other
objects may interact with it. Other objects will rely exclusively on
the object's external interface to interact with it." Not that I
regard Wikipedia's definition of OOP as the leading authority, it just
happens to be handy and provides a definition that fits my own ideas.
On to the question; If I create a class called AClass and inside
declare a class level variable with the private modifier and some other
methods, e.g.
public class AClass {
private int number;
public AClass(int num) {
number = num;
}
public void setAnotherAClass(AClass anotherAClass, int num) {
anotherAClass.number = num;
}
public int getAnotherAClass(AClass anotherAClass) {
return anotherAClass.number;
}
public void display() {
System.out.println("Number: " + number);
}
}
And a class to test AClass:
public class Test {
public static void main(String[] args) {
AClass one = new AClass(1);
AClass two = new AClass(2);
one.display();
two.display();
one.setAnotherAClass(two, 3);
two.display();
}
}
I would expect the compiler first to complain that number has private
access in AClass... Barring that I'm not sure what I'd expect it to
complain about, but something doesn't seem right. Child classes
derived from AClass were not able to make changes to objects of type
AClass which is what I would expect. But because one and two are
distinct objects the fact that they belong to the same class shouldn't
mean they can change each other's private instance variables. I
wasn't able to find anything directly relating to the question in an
hour or so of Googling. I also read through Java's tutorials on OOP to
see if they had anything specific to say, which they did not.
Thank you for your time and ideas.

- \n troublesOK, again I have troubles dealing with String. I have a field of the type
String which contains some text that is separated into lines at random
places, or in other words, the text contains \n\r (or \n in the case of
linux). I write this field into a file and there it looks ok, but when I
read it back I get the whole string in one line. So I figured I'd add a
separator at the end of each line. However, then I get an empty line after
each line! I'm using GZIP to pack the data, so perhaps that is causing this?
Btw. after each block of text I write an end-of-block string to know that
it's the end of that block.
Here's the explanation in code:
String notes = ""; // the result
String lin = ""; // used to read one line from the file
final String eob = "---$#-||-"; // end of block
lin = filein.readLine(); // I'm reading the 1st line
while (lin.compareTo(eob) != 0) {
notes += lin + System.getProperty("line.separator");
lin = filein.readLine();
if (lin == null) { break; } // this will never occur, but just in case
}
return notes;
//-------------
// filein is a BufferedReader
// I can't change that, don't ask why, and
// because of that this is how I read a file
filein = new BufferedReader(
new InputStreamReader(
new BufferedInputStream(
new GZIPInputStream(
new FileInputStream("testFile.gz"))))));
I figured I could erase one empty line after the reading-in is done, but I'm
not sure if this will happen in every case, on every computer. I'm thinking
it could be an anomaly for Windows files.
Anyway, I'm waiting for some suggestions ;)
