How to get data from a file?

Hello everyone, i'm new to this forum and to java too. Ok, so here is what i want to do:
I want to get data from a file containing words and numbers and store them into variables that i will use them after to insert into a database table. For example i have a file called employees.txt in this form:
eid ename zipcode Hire_date
1000 "Jones" 67226 "12-DEC-95"
In C++ i declare variables for each data and store them, for example in this case:
ifstream in("somefile");
string name, hdate;
int eid, zip;
in >> eid >> ename >> zip >> hdate;
So i want to do the same thing in JAVA but i can't make it work. So, i would appreciate if someone could give me a simple example how to do it. Thank you.

How to get data from media files such author, title and so on

Hi you all!

You'd have to parse the binary file header yourself. JMF doesn't have any built-in ways to extract META data from media files.
Also, don't post your question in the title and not in the body of the message. It's annoying and stupid...

How to get data from XML file having korea Text

I have a one XML File with Korean Text, How to read this File.
i tried with this code
BufferedReader in = new BufferedReader(
new InputStreamReader(new FileInputStream("C:/test1.xml"), "EUC-KR"));
String str = in.readLine();
but it is giving exceptions.
please suggest me, how to retrive EUC-KR text from the XML file

Standard Java does not support this Charset. You have to find a charset provider that implements "EUC-KR". But you should also consider using Unicode, which is implemented in standard Java.

How to get data from pdf file and send contents of the pdf file to R/3

Hi, experts,
Action:
1. Make a pdf forms (interactive form) with inputfield named A_inputfield in the webdynpro application and run the webdynpro application.
2. In the IE, click the save button in the pdf interactive form and save the pdf to local disk,ex: C disk. Close the IE browser.
3. Open the pdf interactive form from the local C disk and type "aaa" to the A_inputfield.
4. I want to save the "aaa" to the R/3 system using webdynpro or using other tools . How can I do it?
First way:
If I use webdynpro application to save the content of the pdf, I don't find a way mapping or binding the content to a context of a view. So I don't think this way is unadvisable.
Second way:
Adding a button "submit" in the pdf forms when create the pdf form. Runing the webdynpro application, save the pdf to local disk,ex: C disk. Opening the pdf interactive form from the local c disk and typing "aaa" to the A_inputfield, click the "submit" button to save the content. Of course, I need to finish the code for clicking "submit" button. But I don't know how to write these codes and where to write these codes. Do you give me some advise ?
Best regards,

Instead of doing JDBC i am using text file as database. I cant get data from text file to print into JTable when i click find button. Goal is to find a record and print that record only, but for now i am trying to print all the records. Once i get that i will change my code to search desired record and print it. when i click the find button nothing happens. Can you please take a look at my code, dbTest() method. thanks.
void dbTest() {
DataInputStream dis = null;
String dbRecord = null;
String hold;
try {
File f = new File("customer.txt");
FileInputStream fis = new FileInputStream(f);
BufferedInputStream bis = new BufferedInputStream(fis);
dis = new DataInputStream(bis);
Vector dataVector = new Vector();
Vector headVector = new Vector(2);
Vector row = new Vector();
// read the record of the text database
while ( (dbRecord = dis.readLine()) != null) {
StringTokenizer st = new StringTokenizer(dbRecord, ",");
while (st.hasMoreTokens()) {
row.addElement(st.nextToken());
System.out.println("Inside nested loop: " + row);
System.out.println("inside loop: " + row);
dataVector.addElement(row);
System.out.println("outside loop: " + row);
headVector.addElement("Title");
headVector.addElement("Type");
dataTable = new JTable(dataVector, headVector);
dataTableScrollPane.setViewportView(dataTable);
} catch (IOException e) {
// catch io errors from FileInputStream or readLine()
System.out.println("Uh oh, got an IOException error!" + e.getMessage());
} finally {
// if the file opened okay, make sure we close it
if (dis != null) {
try {
dis.close();

How to insert data from *.dmp file to oracle 11g using Oracle SQL Develope

hi
i backup my database using PL/SQL developer and made *.dmp file
how to insert data from *.dmp file to oracle 11g using Oracle SQL Developer 2.1.1.64
and how to make *.dmp file from sql*plus ?
thanks in advance

Pl/Sql developer has a config window, there you choose the exec to do the import/export.
Find it and his home version, it may be exp or expdp, the home version is the version of the client where the exp executable is.
Then use the same version of imp or impdp to execute the import, you do not need to use Oracle SQL Developer 2.1.1.64. If you want to use it, you must have the same version in the oracle home that exp/imp of sql developer use.

How to read data from multiple files and append in columns in one file

Hi Guys,
I have a problem in appending data from files in different columns. I have attachement has file A and B which I am reading and not able to get data as in file Result.txt. Please comment on how can I do this
Solved!

You cannot append columns to an existing file. Since the data is arrange line-by-line as one long linear string in the file, you can only append rows. A new row needs to be interlaced into the original file, shifting everything else. If you want to append rows, you need to build the entire output structure in memory and then write all at once.
(I also don't think you need to set the file positions, it will be remembered from the last write operation.)
Unless the files are gigantic, here's what I would do:
(Also note that some of your rows have an extra tab at the end. If this is normal, you need a little bit more code to strop out empty columns. I include cleaned up files in the attachment. I also would not call them A.txt.txt etc. A plain A.txt is probably sufficient.)
EDIT: It seems Dennis's solution is similar )

How to extract data from .xltm file in a (dataset, datatable or a list) using wpf c#

Hi all,
As we can get data from .xls, .xlsx file in a dataset. Now i want to read all the entire data from .xltm file.
I also want to get all sheets name from .xltm file. I am using .Net framework 4.5, Visual studio 2012.
Please help me. I am unable to extract it. It is urgent.

Hello Kalpna Bindal,
I just investigate this issue and use the following way but it does work:
private void Button_Click(object sender, RoutedEventArgs e)
// initialize connection
OleDbConnection con = new OleDbConnection();
con.ConnectionString =
"Provider=Microsoft.ACE.OLEDB.12.0;Data Source=D:\\Fruits1.xltm;Extended Properties=\"Excel 12.0 Xml;HDR=YES;\"";
//pass query to Insert values into Excel
OleDbCommand cmd = new OleDbCommand();
cmd.CommandText = "insert into [Sheet1$] values('')";
cmd.Connection = con;
// EXECUTE QUERY
con.Open();
cmd.ExecuteNonQuery();
con.Close();
I then did a research about this issue and find the following case:
http://stackoverflow.com/questions/22225017/reading-excel-xltm-files-programmatically
To test whether it is possible I use the following code in WPF:
Microsoft.Office.Interop.Excel.Application xltmApp = new Microsoft.Office.Interop.Excel.Application();
xltmApp.Visible = false;
xltmApp.ScreenUpdating = false;
Workbook xltmBook = xltmApp.Workbooks.Open(@"D:\Fruits1.xltm");
Worksheet xlworksheet = xltmBook.Worksheets.get_Item(1);
for (int i = 1; i <= 1; i++)
for(int j=1;j<=1;j++)
string str = (string)(xlworksheet.UsedRange.Cells[i, j] as Microsoft.Office.Interop.Excel.Range).Value;
MessageBox.Show(str);
The result is that I can read this .xltm file and read the firstline without problem.
I would think you can also use this way to work with your .xltm file and output it to your application.
For more details about how to fill to your WPF, common wpf and excel thread will be helpful:

How to get data from PDF form?

How to get it from PDF is another matter...
I'm working on an app that downloads PDFs with a Large amount of data as a blob, takes that blob and changes it to XML, then goes through the xml to validate each section of data and then add it into the schema that my apex app is referencing....
I didn't write the original code but I do know that it isn't a quick thing to implement and includes using some uploading some java jar files to your schema and writing some custom java code.
Someone else may be able to help with grabbing PDF data into the URL for the amounts of data you want to pass to apex.
