Format a string in java 1.4

I am facing this problem i have a string amount whose value can be 88.0 , 88.26 but if it is 88.0i want this to be displayed as 88.00 can anyone suggest me how to do this . I know this can be done by String.format but unfortunately I guess this is not available in 1.4 version . any help is much appreciated .

import java.text.DecimalFormat;
import java.util.Locale;
public class DecimalFormat2 {
public static void main(String args[]) {
DecimalFormat df1 = new DecimalFormat("#.00");
System.out.println(df1.format(1234));//output: 1234.00

Formatting a string

Hello All
Is there a way I can use format specifiers with variables?
OK so I need to format a string to be a certain length equal to the longest string I am using. So what I would like to use is something like:
%xs where x is the number of the length of the longest string I have. So if I have a string with 9 characters and one with 4 characters then I need 5 spaces on the left side of the 4 character string to push it to the right. (5 = 9 - 4). But the 9 might become 12 one time, or 3 the other, so it is a variable length.
I tried to use concatenation to build the formatter expression, but the printf line did not understand it.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Well I can think of two solutions...
If you want to not modify the Strings and just show the outcomes of adding the spaced you can simply print the appropriate amount of spaces before the string...
public class Sandbox {
     public static void main(String[] arg)     {
          String s1 = new String("Hello World");
          String s2 = new String("Hello");
          System.out.println(s1);
          for (int x=0; x<(s1.length() - s2.length()); x++) {
               System.out.print(" ");
          System.out.print(s2);
OUTCOME:
Hello World
      HelloBut if you want to actually make the string that certain amount of spaces longer you can use the following...
import java.lang.StringBuilder;
public class Sandbox2 {
     public static void main(String[] args) {
          String s1 = new String("Hello World");
          String s2 = new String("Hello");
          StringBuilder sb = new StringBuilder(s2);
          for (int x=0; x<(s1.length() - s2.length()); x++) {
               sb.insert(0, " ");
          System.out.println(s1+"\n"+sb);
OUTCOME:
Hello World
      Hello

Can anyone answer this question? What is used to format a string so that it falls into a certain Row/Column in excel? see text for indepth question.

I'm attaching a file that may help. Just remember this is my FIRST attempt at using NI/FeildPoint so things that would be obvious to the normal users more than likely would slide right by me. So I'll try and explain what the text contains as to make my problem more clear. I'm using a FP-1000, FP-AI-100, and a FP-TB-10. i'm creating a application where I'm using the 8 channels from the FP-AI-100 to monitor a control system ,that we manufacture. The control system is in an environmental chamber. I use the FP-TB-10 to monitor the temperature while in the chamber. The control system is ran for 4 hours under varing enviromental conditions while I monitor vital system voltages with the FP-AI-100. Now the application that i'm building starts with the obvious FP CREATE.VI and so forth I have no problem communicating with the FP's, but the information that I'm monitioring needs to be placed into a file with Headers describing the information below it. Now I use a "WHILE LOOP.VI" to monitor the FP-AI-100 & FP-TB-10 for the 4 hour period. but before that I create and open a file where I use a "CONCATENATE STRINGS.VI" to enter the headers I need. I do this by CONSTANTS, CONTROLS, TABs, AND CARRIAGE RETURN being entered into the "CONCATENATE STRINGS.VI" in the order I want them to appear. I use ROW 1 to enter (OPERATOR:with a CONSTANT) an a (CONTROL so the operator may enter his name and be recorded into the file) using a TAB to seperate Columns and a CARRIAGE RETURNto drop down to ROW 2 for the next headers. I use header names and TABs to seperate the columns. This part works great. I end up with ROW 1 having the operator information then ROW 2 having the headers for all the channels I'm using to monitor the control system with in their own column. The trouble happens when I write to this file during the "WHILE LOOP". The information recorded for DATE:, TIME:, and Channel 0 of the FP-AI-100 end up right under their corresponding header on ROW 3, but the rest of the data ends up on ROW 4 in column 3 and goes down many rows with some of the data not being stored at all. It varies on how many rows are used starting at ROW 4 but hey always stay in column 3. I use the "FP READ.VI" outputing to a "ARRAY TO SPREADSHEET STRING.VI" outputing to a "CONCATENATE STRINGS.VI" for each channel within the "WHILE LOOP" then into the "WRITE.VI". I use the "CONCATENATE STRINGS.VI" to place my data OR atleast I thought you could do that some how I'm not quit doing something write either there is a sampling/timing issue or writing to file issue where things are being confused in the "WHILE LOOP" if someone know a better route to perform what I'm tring here I would be interested. Its not like I'm not giving it the old colledge try here but without proper training and the vagness of the manuals it's difficult to understand what every connection actually does.I'm tring though for everyone who happens to fill pity for me
Thanks for your help

Allmost right. The 8 channels come out as 1D-array, ch0...ch7.

I don't use this Spreadsheet VI, because files coming out there allways
start this time consuming EXCEL wizzard. Because of this, I programmed my
own CSV-conversion vi. Maybe you could just use a common texteditor, like
wordpad and put the csv-examples from my last reply down to a text file
and rename it to *.csv. Texteditors terminate lines with "\r\n" by
default, so this is a very quick way for testing.
> FP_Analog_Logging example to record all eight channels it uses a Array
I didn't find the vi you metione above, but there is another good one:
Look at examples\FieldPoint\DataLogging\FP Logger.vi.
In a little case structure, at "false", there is a function called "Format
into string".
Pop up on the format string and adjust >>'\' Codes Display<<.
Then you change the format string into: %.;%-f%s
A Tab string is connected to the lower input of this function. Replace
this one with a comma.
That should do.

Yes, just as explained above. If you put a indicator at the output to
display the values, you can expand the display to show all 8 channels, but
you can't name induvidual cells. In a array, all cells have identical
named labels. If you want to name the individually, you have to attach the
array to cluster function and put the indicator after this one. Enable
labe display and name the output values individually.

Explained above.

Well, modifying strings are done with string functions.
Above, as I explained how the sample FP Logger.vi can be modified to do
the job for numbers. The pre- and suffixing with ", you only need for
strings, which EXCEL should interpret a string and as nothing else as a
string, even if there's a number inside. You usually need this only for
headers. So its easyest, if you just write your string into a string
constant or control and concatenate it to the previous csv-file contents.
Oh, I just see by looking at the above mentioned example... Inside the
case structure, but in the "true" case, there are error messages
concatenated to the logfile. At this point it is importent, to use " for
integrating the message into the CSV file, because a error message usually
looks like this: >> ERROR 2345 in vi yxz <<
Here you have text and number strings mixed in one line. EXCEL does not
know, if it should interpret the number inside the error line as separate
number, separating the line into three colums i.e. string before number,
number and string after number. So tell EXCEL by putting a " before and
after the line each.
For this, expand the Format To String function by one input, move down all
connections, to be able to insert a string constant with a " to the first
argument connector. Change the contents of the string constant at the
bottom argument from tab to ", (quotation mark AND comma)
> #5 You gave me an example of what a 3 column header could look like:
> "col0","col1","col2"\r\n Now is this something that you enter

The example I mentioned above help here to.
Look at the Write File function. This function receves data from a
function named concatenate strings. Expand this function to have one more
spare input at the bottom. Create a string constant. Switch the constant
display to "\" mode. Enter "col0","col1","col2"\r\n into the constant.
Connect the constant to the spare input.
Doing this, every dataline in the csv file is followed by
"col0","col1","col2"\r\n .
I wish you a nice weekend,

How can i encrypt an ddecrypt a string using java

hai,
can anybody know how to encrypt and decrypt a string using java..
please if anybody help me with a small example and with code
thanks
ravi chandra

hi,
of course there are better ways to crypt your code, but the following 2 functions do their job....
as far as i know java has an own api for crypting stuff.
private String GetEncryptedString(String aCryptedString)
String result = "";
String str = aCryptedString;
int[] asciiArray = new int[str.length()];
for(int i = 0; i < asciiArray.length; i++)
asciiArray[i] = (int)str.charAt(i);
char tempChar = (char)(asciiArray[i]+3);
result = result+tempChar;
return result;
private String GetDecryptedString(String aString)
String result = "";
String str = aString;
int[] asciiArray = new int[str.length()];
for(int i = 0; i < asciiArray.length; i++)
asciiArray[i] = (int)str.charAt(i);
char tempChar = (char)(asciiArray[i]-3);
result = result+tempChar;
return result;

1.4.2 - What is the correct way to format output in the java.io.PrintStream

With Java 1.4.2:
What is the correct way to format output in the java.io.PrintStream?
The following is incorrect, even though it is still used in the The JavaTM Tutorial at: http://java.sun.com/docs/books/tutorial/essential/
System.out.formatThis returns "cannot resolve the method 'format'"
Any detailed suggestions or information is greatly appreciated.

The following is incorrect, even though it is still
used in the The JavaTM Tutorial at:
http://java.sun.com/docs/books/tutorial/essential/
The whole format thing has been introduced in 1.5. The tutorial also states it's been "updated to 1.5.".
That's all I've got to say for I don't know how you can format a PrintWriter, let alone a PrintStream, prior to 1.5. I'm not really sure there is any way. Any "legacy way", that is. There almost certainly are third-party API which achieve similar results.

Formatting a string with time stamp and double precision numbers

%s\t%f\r%f
This is a format string that I have in old code that I've decided to change. Problem is I cannot make sense of the string codes in my own old code! Let me explain what I want, and hopefully someone can explain how to do it.
I am using the format into string subvi to merge a time stamp (formatted as %m%d%Y%H%M%S%5u) and two different double precision numbers. This string is then wired into the Write Characters to File subvi so that I can record data as a .txt file, and open it in either Matlab or Excel. There is a minor problem with the string format above because in excel the first time stamp entry is blank, and the first loop only gives the two double precision numbers withouth the time stamp - the time stamp appears in the next loop (probably a looping issue and not due to the string format, but if you see differently please let me know). Now what I want to do is 1. potentially fix that problem and 2. add some more doubles.
1. Is there a string format issue that is evident that I am not seeing that causes the time stamp to be formatted into the string after a carriage return? Or should I be looking at looping issues?
2. How do I add another one - three floating point numbers (double precision)? Are the \'s marking different numbers in this string constant? Or is it the %? I can't find any information about the \'s, but I see that % begins the format specifier.
Ideally, I want these data in the following columns: Date, Time(absolute), FP, FP, FP, carriage return for the next loop (FP is floating point double precision number).
Thanks,
Brad

Hi JonN,
Here there is no need of string concordinate function (in your code), the same result you can find if you connect the output of the format string to shift register, and shift register in data to initialize string connector in format into string function.

Formatting a string in message mapping

Hi all,
This is about Formatting a String. I have seen a NumberFormat( arithmetic ) for numbers. Is there any function for String Format? For my application, I need to append empty string at right side of the input string. This string may be varying its length. If standard function not exits then please help me with USD

Hi,
Do u mean to say that the target field is of fixed length and source field may b of varying length.
Hence depending on the strlen() of the source field you need to keep append empty strings to reach the length of the target field?

This comes up periodically. It just isn't possible using that type of approach. Probably the best you could do is the create an ADT (containing collections) and use that to pass a 'batch' of information.
Hopefully this will get addressed in the next release of the database.

Method to Format a string column containing HTML tags as simple string.

Hello,
I am working with formating a string column which holds Html tags.
I want to remove these tags from the actual data which has to be shown on the BI Publisher report.
Can you suggest how can we format this in the DataSet designer of BI publisher so that my data is recognised on the Layout designer.
I have been trying to create an expression using the "Add Element by Expression" option to format this html tag data as normal string without the tags.
Can you suggest if this is the correct method to do this.
I found this below code being used in an existing DateSet but i am not able to recreate a similar formating on this kind of data column.
<![CDATA' || '['|| TO_CLOB(SUCCESS_CRITERIA) || ']' || ']>
Kindly suggest if you have any idea on the above mentioned issue.
Thanks,
Shweta

How to format paragraph string to show content left, Right or middle of pdf document using iTextsharp ' vb

Dear All
how to format paragraph string to show content left, Right or middle of pdf document using iTextsharp in visual basic and absolute position on the document.
Thanks

Here is one more example that i have modified the GetCell function so that you can use it for adding all the cells to the document. It takes several arguments to specify everything you need to create each cell. It now lets
you specify the Text, the Text Alignment, the Text Font and color, weather the cell shows the Border, the BackColor of the cell, and the Padding values for the Left, Right, Top, and Bottom.
If you study the code you should be able to figure out how it works. From here you can figure out the rest of what you need to do and how to use the
GetCell function.
