End.of.file character sequence in jdeveloper

Question

I'm unable to input the windows end-of-file character in the program input window (JDeveloper) so i can exit the while loop below. The window accepts all other characters except the CTRL-C character sequence in windows. How does a user exit this loop in the \\\jdev
while (input.hasNext()) { //loop until EOF character
try {
//retrieve data to be input
record.setAccount(input.nextInt());
record.setFirstName(input.next());
record.setLastName(input.next());
record.setBalance(input.nextDouble());
if (record.getAccount() > 0) {
output.format("%d %s %s %.2f\n", record.getAccount(),
record.getFirstName(), record.getLastName(),
record.getBalance());
} else {
System.out.println("Account number must be greater than 0");
} //end try
catch (FormatterClosedException e) {
System.err.println("Error writing to file.");
return;
} catch (NoSuchElementException e) {
System.err.println("Invlaid input. Please try again.");
input.nextLine();
System.out.printf("%s %s\n%s", "Enter account number (>0), ",
"first name, last name, and balance.", "? ");
} //end while
//...

Hi,
That charecter comes in the last field in the file as it is the end , so write a code in transformations from PSA to DSO of the last  field.
Here i am giving the code that needs to be included in the field routine.
DATA : INT_VAR TYPE /BI0/OIMATERIAL. (give your field insted of material)
DATA : STR_VAR1(20) TYPE C. (give your field type here)
DATA : VAR2 TYPE I.
DATA : VAR3 TYPE I.
DATA : VAR4 TYPE I.
DATA : STR_VAR6(20) TYPE C.
MOVE SOURCE_FIELDS-MATERIAL TO INT_VAR.
TRANSLATE INT_VAR TO UPPER CASE .
IF INT_VAR CN
',<>?/\:;"''ABCDEFGHI JKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ!%^&*()__+=1234567890' .
STR_VAR1 = INT_VAR+0(SY-FDPOS).
VAR2 = STRLEN( INT_VAR ).
VAR3 = SY-FDPOS + 1.
VAR4 = VAR2 - VAR3.
STR_VAR6 = INT_VAR+VAR3(VAR4).
CONCATENATE STR_VAR1 STR_VAR6 INTO RESULT.
ELSE.
RESULT = INT_VAR.
ENDIF.
Hope this works good in your case
Cheers,
Srinath.
