since you knew the file name ,when clicked in name send to server,read the file and write to servlet outputstream.

>

There was a basic problem in the logic of that code, that resulted in the assumption (by the JRE) that every file the user attempted to load, was located in the 'current directory'. It was fixed by abandoning the String based file name of the file, and instead setting openFile to the selected file in the chooser. I also demolished the loading code by replacing the JTextArea with a JEditorPane (much easier).

How to display text file in swing

hello,
I have screen where user enters batch number and number.
when key is pressed a list is displayed on the screen.how to do this and how to relate my actionlistener with the function that generates the list...

Hi,
It is simple. Just create a button and add it to the action listener as button.addActionListener(this);
Your class should extend ActionListener. and also there should be a method named - actionPerformed(ActionEvent avt) in your class
Now inside this method, just compare the action as:
if(avt.getSource()==button)
// in this method, hjust take your file contents and display it on the same window, or create a new Frame here and display it in that window.
If you want to display the file contents in the same window, then do the following.
Declare a public JLabel variable for the class and create the JLabel along with the other components as usual but without giving any values. Now in the action part of the button, read the file contents in a string variable, and set the string to the jlabel as folows:
label.setText(string);
Hope it helps,
Cochu.

You can't really.
You need to use DHTML in the swf-wrapper HTML file, usually a
division wrapped iFrame, and load the PDF into the iFrame as an
overlay to the Flash.

How to display Doc file format in the JEditPane?

At this time , JEditPane supports RTF and HTML file format ,but
Could anyone tell me how to display DOC file format using JEditPane
or other JTextComponents?
Thx a lot!
Caton

Hi,
there is no support for doc files (M$ Word?) in Java. You would have to create your own classes for that eventually subclassing JEditorPane, EditorKit, Document etc. As well you'd need your own reader for the doc format.
The problem I see with that however is that there is nothing such as thedoc file format. Microsoft just saves anything produced by MS Word into files ending with .doc. But, if there is anything such as a .doc file format, it changes more often than the weather in April.

How to display texts automatic. besides entered value for a field in Trans.

How to display texts automatically besides the entered value for a field in a standard transaction screen. For example you have a value table and a text table associated to it. Then on entering the value field and pressing enter the text associated should get displayed immediately besides the value. Like if you have 'LOC' as the value and 'Location' as the text associated to it, on entering this value 'LOC', you automatically get the text 'Location' printed besides it automatically in a transaction screen ?
Message was edited by: Sarika Kedia

Hi sarika,
Welcome to SDN.
1. first of all, such display of text,
   is not automatic.
   (it appears to be automatic)
2. At design time,
   a) take one extra field for text
     and mark it as OUTPUT ONLY
3. Then in PBO coding,
    call some module, and in that module
    write code
4. The code should be to
   select from TEXT Table
   into the work area.
EG. THE SCREEN TEXT FIELD NAME IS
T510A-FIELDNAME.
CLEAR t510a.
SELECT SINGLE * FROM t510a INTO t510a
WHERE trfar = FIELVALUE.
5. This will take care of
   displaying the text value of that field.
regards,
amit m.

How to write text file in Shockwave?

Does anybody know how to write text file in Shockwave to
user's disk?
Thanks in advance.

Those Xtras can wreak to much havoc when used with the wrong
intent.
What you can do is write with setpref and store a list of
saves and the
saves itself seperatly. Then you'd have to build your own
save/open
dialog to let the user:
* pick a previously saved file to load or overwrite
* have the user type the name of a new file to save.
Only thing that remains is that the user cannot decide where
the files
are saved.

How to display XSL file to ASPX in dreamweaver

Hi,
Just wondering how to display XSL file in ASPX page?
I normally do it in ASP page by using server behaviour XSLT transformation and bind it to ASP page and this works very well.
Now I am trying to use the same method and using ASPX page this time but this time there is no option from server behaviour where I can bind it to my ASPX.
Can someone help or perhaps let me know where I can find the information how to do it?
Thanks,
Rush O

You mean you want to see the XML source?
You need to replace the characters '<' and '&' with corresponding entities '<' and '&'. You can use replaceAll, but do the ampersands first.
Then I suggest you probably want to put them in a <PRE> block.

How to read text file line by line...?

how to read text file line by line, but the linefeed is defined by user, return list of string, each line of file is a item of list?
please help me.
Thanks very much

Brynjar wrote:
In Groovy, you would do something like:
linefeed = "\n" //or "\r\n" if the user chose so
lines = new File('pathtofile').text.split("${linefeed}")This is one of the things that has always annoyed me about Sun's sdk, i.e. the lack of easy ways to do things like that. You always end up making your own utilities or use something like Apache's commons.io. Same goes for jdbc and xml - I'll wait for appropriate topics to show how easy that is in Groovy :)I generally agree, but what I really don't like about the Groovy text-file handling niceties: They don't care about encoding/always use the default encoding. And as soon as you want to specify the encoding, it gets a lot more complex (granted, it's still easier than in Java).
