Blank lines in Export files

Hello,
When we export in BPC version 7 there are blank lines in the file. This gets in the way when we automate the export and import into another system since it picks up blank lines as the end of file. Do you know why this is happening and how we can remove them on the export automatically so they do not show up?
Many thanks in advance.
Regards,
Poonam

Hi All,
While extracting data from any application or making any selections to extract, the same thing is happening while exporting. This is happening with multiheader excel format.
Yes, i am trying to extract data using the transformation file and running the export package.
Would request you guide me further.
Regards,
Poonam

Blank line in text file after download

Hi all,
i am using the below code to get the 254 blank spaces at the end of the text file & it's comming correctly.
generally i am downloading 2 lines in the original program & i am getting one blank line in between these two lines.
The main thing is that i am getting this blank line when i run this program in my office computer. But i am not getting this blank line when i run this same program in my home laptop. Please suggest why this blank line is appearing & any solution ?

I don't think this is issue of ABAP. Any way just to check download the file on laptop and open same file and office computer
if file looks ok then it is OS or text editor issue.
Thanks,

Skipping Blank Lines in text File

I am working on an assignment in which i have to read from a text file and store the strings individually. The problem i have is that the text file has blank line between each set of strings. So i figured to use "fin.nextLine();" to skip that blank line and continue with storing the values. but i get
"Exception in thread "main" java.util.NoSuchElementException: No line found
     at java.util.Scanner.nextLine(Unknown Source)
     at processmsg.ProcessMessages.choice1(ProcessMessages.java:68)
     at processmsg.ProcessMessages.main(ProcessMessages.java:25)"
which is where the fin.nexLine() is at. How can i just skip that blank line?
System.out.println("Please enter the file location");
          Scanner stdin = new Scanner(System.in);
          String fileName = stdin.nextLine();
          // read the information from the file
          try {
               Scanner fin = new Scanner(new File(fileName));
               String tSendName = fin.nextLine();
               while(tSendName != null)
                    String tRecieveName = fin.nextLine();
                    String tPhoneNumber = fin.nextLine();
                    String tDate = fin.nextLine();
                    String tTime = fin.nextLine();
                    String tStatus = fin.nextLine();
                    String tMessage = fin.nextLine();
                    PhoneMessage phonemessage = new PhoneMessage(tSendName, tRecieveName,
                              tPhoneNumber, tDate, tTime, tStatus, tMessage);
                    fin.nextLine();
                    tSendName = fin.nextLine();

don't know if you want the whole code, the whole code is kind of large and spread out over 3 different classes. and yes the text file is standard
sender
reciever
phone number
date

status

Blank line in receiver file adapter content conversion

Hi,
I am using a receiver file adapter. Everything is working fine. Except that a blank line is put by the file adapter between each records. It is a flat file format.
I have used the stting below. How do we remove the blank line?
Recordset : ACCTHDR,BATCHDR,TRANSREC,BATCHTLR,FILETLR
ACCTHDR.fieldFixedLengths 1,7,4,9,8,665
ACCTHDR.absoluteRowWidth 694
ACCTHDR.addHeaderLine 0
Thanks

Hi,
.endSeparator
The default value is a line break (no explicit separator after the last column; instead the structures are arranged line-by-line).
If you enter a character string here, the system adds it to the last column as a closing character. You can also make this specification in addition to NameA.fieldFixedLengths. To include a line break following the closing character, you must explicitly define it by attaching ´nl´ (including the quotation marks) to the string.

Ignore blank lines in text file using number format exception.

hi.. does anyone know how to ignore a blank line and move on to the next line? the text file contains:
2
bla bla bla
112.4
222.5
ble ble vle
115.5
123.2

The problem with trim() is that it only trims spaces (0x20). In a source code file, "blank" lines are as likely to contain TABs as spaces. I would recommend something like if (line.length() == 0 || line.matches("\\s+")) If the inefficiency of matches() becomes a problem, you can use a pre-compiled Pattern object, or roll your own isItWhitespace() method.

Blank Line in output file

Hi,
I have a requirement for a blank line in between the Static data and dynamic values part as shown below
Flag='Yes'
Ready='No'
Column1     Column2      Column3
a                 b                 c
d                 e                  f
g                 h                  i
Here after "Ready='No'" there is a blank line before the starting of Column1. I want to achieve that through xsd. I have tried with the nillable='true' , its not working.I am using SOA 11.1.1.7.0. Please help.
Thanks,
Abhishek

Hi !
Why are you using File.endSeparator '0'. ?
Are you sure your input data doesn't have those 3 blank records in the end? Check the message payload in the sxmb_moni transaction.

Finding the number of Non-Blank Line in a File

Does anyone know the command or how to find the number of non-blank lines in a text file? I have the program already reading characters, words, and total lines.
          BufferedReader FileIn = new BufferedReader( new FileReader( selectedFile ) );
               Scanner scanWords = new Scanner (selectedFile);
                         String thisToken = "";
                         int numWords = 0;
                         while (scanWords.hasNext())
                         thisToken = scanWords.next();
                         numWords++;
     System.out.println("Total number of words: " + numWords);
     Scanner scanLines = new Scanner (selectedFile).useDelimiter("\n");
                         String thisToken2 = "";
                         int numLines = 0;
                         while (scanLines.hasNext())
                         thisToken2 = scanLines.next();
                         numLines++;
     System.out.println("Total number of lines: " + numLines);
     Scanner scanChars = new Scanner (selectedFile).useDelimiter("");
                         String thisToken3 = "";
                         int numChars = 0;
                         while (scanChars.hasNext())
                         thisToken2 = scanChars.next();
                         numChars++;
     System.out.println("Total number of characters: " + numChars);
               FileIn.close();
          }

Use BufferedReader#readLine() instead. Read the file once and process each line once.

How can i Insert a blank line an output file from my code

I hav a problem in printing the charecters at th partyicular positon by getting the getFilePointer SO p-lz do help

It's not so simple as you might have in mind.
The following may serve to give some idea for your purpose..
import java.io.*;
public class RandAcc {
public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception{
try{
long filePointer=0L;
java.io.RandomAccessFile rf = new java.io.RandomAccessFile("in.txt","rw");//arbitrary input text file
System.out.println(String.valueOf(rf.getFilePointer()));
int q=0;
while((q=rf.read())!=-1){
    filePointer=rf.getFilePointer();
    System.out.print(String.valueOf(q));
    System.out.print(": file pointer is at ");
    System.out.println(String.valueOf(filePointer));
rf.seek(0L);//reset the filepointer
System.out.println(String.valueOf((char)rf.read()));//initial position
rf.close();
catch (Exception e){
    throw e;
}

Blank line in receiver file adapter content conversion

Extra blank lines in source code

I have built a website in Dreamweaver CS4 and have a client editing pages in Contribute CS5. Both of us are working on Windows 7, and the site is hosted on Linux. When she makes edits to the page, something is introducing a GAZILLION blank lines in the source code. A typical page for this site is about 380 lines of code. The problem page is now more than 310,000 lines code with 100-200 blank lines between every "real" line of code. What the...?!
I need to know how to stop this and how to remove the blank lines from the source code using Dreamweaver.
The page in question lives here: http://www.alexandercitychamber.com/member-category.html
HELP!!!
Jeff

Hello, Diane -
We've got two separate issues here, but I think we have the solution to both.
1. How to stop Contribute from adding blank lines in the code, and
2. How to clean up a GAZILLION lines of blank code in a document.
First, Number 1. I assume you're working in Dreamweaver. If not, I'm not sure how to guide you. But, when you define a Contribute Site, there is an area to specify administrative roles and permissions. Under each Role, at the bottom, you will see a popup for what kind of server the site is hosted on. The default is Windows. I had to change this to Unix (Linux) to match the hosting of our problem site. Find out what platform your host is using. You will have to specify this under each admistrative Role. After doing this, I had the client make some edits, then I opened the files in Dreamweaver. No new blank lines. I admit, I still have my fingers crossed somewhat.
Okay, now how to clean up your source code and remove blank lines. A developer friend found this on some forum I had not seen. I don't know where, but I am grateful to the person who wrote it. It didn't get all the blank lines in my files, but I think some of the others, which I removed manually, were probably from the client pasting content in from Word. Here's what to do:
1. Open the file in Dreamweaver
2. Click CTRL + F, or go to EDIT > FIND AND REPLACE
3. Select "Current document" in "Find In" (You can also select the folder if you have multiple files.
4. Search in "Source Code"
5. Check the box labeled "Use regular expression"
6. Type "[\r\n]{2,}" (without quotes) in "Find"
7. Type "\n" (without quotes) in "Replace"
8. Press "Replace All"
The operation chugged for a few minutes with my 301,000-line document. Yours may a take a little longer, but it did work. Good luck!

Export file: EXPDAT.DMP

Hi all, need urgent assistance
am doing a full export..started since friday ...normally this should take 2 days. that is for whatever reason on monday morning it should have been done. The last line is

and from my last experience it can be like this for days without any progress(6 days or more)...and if enter key is pressed. it will give export terminated unsuccessful message
does it mean the export is completed?

Sharepoint Designer 2010 inserting blank lines

Sharepoint Designer (SP1) is intermittently inserting hundreds of thousands of rows as I am working with an .aspx document. This bug, which was first present in 2007, has been reported by many people over the years; it seems to remain in 2010.
Does anyone have a solution for this issue? Is there something in my page, which contains a bunch of xsltlistviews, that could be blowing up this file?
Thanks.

All --
FYI, here is a decent workaround to the problem of SPD 2013 (SharePoint Designer 2013) inserting blank lines into pages.
Here are the steps.
- Get CodeMaid (free) or similar coding-tool plugin/extension for Visual Studio 2013 (VS 2013) that can remove blank lines.
- Check out the file in SPD.
- From SPD, right click the file and choose open with, then choose VS.
- Run CodeMaid clean processing in VS, which will remove multiple consecutive blank lines.
- Save file in VS.
- Close file in VS.
- Check in file with SPD.
- Done.
It may seem like a lot of steps, and it is, and it odd the MS does not simply use the same code editor base for both VS and SPD, but using this workaround is actually pretty quick and easy, and easier still if you use the VS editor to code the files (instead
of the SPD editor) because the VS has way better code-folding and code-completion and code-digging anyway.
Just thought I would mention a (fairly) quick and easy way to workaround this SPD shortcoming.
HTH.
Thanks.

CRXI Export to text - suppressed section creates blank lines

I'm using CRXI Proffesional - full version 11.5.11.1470
I have a report that uses the typical "stealth" subreport to obtain and pass info to the container, but remains invisible in preview mode. The fields in the subreport are all suppressed, the sections in the subreport are suppressed if blank and the subreport itself is suppressed when blank, the section that contains the subreport is also suppressed if blank.
This has always worked fine to get info into the container from the subreport while not creating any "white space" on the report.
Print preview and export to pdf both function just fine, omitting the blank lines.
It seems that exporting this to a text file is now creating blank lines for each occurence of the subreport.
I have seen this problem in a couple of forums but have not seen a resolution yet.
Does anybody have any idea how I can stop the exporting of suppressed blank sections ?

Good morning.
We've got something to get straight first
When you say "...from the Report Viewer. The report printed as expected on HP printer...", do you mean the viewer of the .NET app, or the viewer of the CR designer?
And version 12.0.0.683, is very old (well as far as CR is concerned anyhow ). That version is SP 1, we are now on SP 2. So that will be the place to start. Get to SP 2 which can be downloaded from here;

Blank line is appearing in the file in GUI_DOWNLOAD

Hi all,
i am downloading two lines into the text file. i am getting one blank line in between this two line if i use the 'GUI_DOWNLOAD' FM. This blank line is not appearing if i use 'WS_DOWNLOAD' FM. Please advise why the blank line is comming between this two downloaded line. Thanks

Hi Pabitra,
     My unerstanding of your requirement is " you are trying to download a file to local drive using GUI_DOWNLOAD and it give a blank line between 2 data and the same using WS_DOWNLOAD is not giving any line in between the data".
   I have tried the code piece you have provide with both the FM's and both downloaded the similar file i mean both downloaded the data similarly. Please see the code below

    data_tab                      = OUTTAB.
I think the Blank line which you got would be a result of Word wrap property of the notepad.
If i did not get your question correctly can you please elaborate me.
Thanks & Regards!
