How to read a text file using Java

Guys,
Good day!
Please help me how to read a text file using Java and create/convert that text file into XML.
Thanks and God Bless.
Regards,
I-Talk

     public void fileRead(){
             File aFile =new File("myFile.txt");
         BufferedReader input = null;
         try {
           input = new BufferedReader( new FileReader(aFile) );
           String line = null;
           while (( line = input.readLine()) != null){
         catch (FileNotFoundException ex) {
           ex.printStackTrace();
         catch (IOException ex){
           ex.printStackTrace();
     }This code is to read a text file. But there is no such thing that will convert your text file to xml file. You have to have a defined XML format. Then you can read your data from text files and insert them inside your xml text. Or you may like to read xml tags from text files and insert your own data. The file format of .txt and .xml is far too different.

How to print a text file using Java

How can I print a text file using Java without converting the output to an image format. Is there anyway I can send the characters in the text file as it is for a print job? I did get a listing doing this ... but that converted the text to an image format before printing....
THanks,.

Hi I had to write a print api from scratch, and I did not convert the output to image. Go and read up on the following code. I know there is a Tutorial on Sun about the differant sections of the snippet.
private void printReport()
     Frame tempFrame = new Frame(getName());
     PrintJob printerJob = Toolkit.getDefaultToolkit().getPrintJob(tempFrame, "Liesltext", null);
     Graphics g = printerJob.getGraphics();
                //I wrote the method below for calculations
     printBasics(g);
     g.dispose();
     printerJob.end();
}This alone wont print it you have to do all the calculations in the printBasics method. And as I said I wrote this from scratch and all I did was research first the tutorial and the white papers
Ciao

Lavanya,
This question relates to shell scripting and in IMO it is not an oracle question.
I have made some initial assumptions before my proposed solution.
PLEASE note that this is untested, but can just guide you as a template for solving your problem.
Assuming that you have properly set up the control file and mapped each and every table in it as per the file information which you have..
Assuming the text file to be in the format of : ------ (as suggested by other posters earlier, this file holds instructions about the file and table mapping which shall be used by your sqlldr process.)
tmp.txt:
text_file_1-------------should goes to----customer_info_table
text_file_2------------should goes to------customer_address_table
text_file_3-----------should goes to-------customer_order_table
while read line
do
SQLLDR CONTROL=`echo $line | sed 's/should goes to/ /g' | sed 's/-//g' | awk -F " " '{print $1}'`.ctl,
LOG=`echo $line | sed 's/should goes to/ /g' | sed 's/-//g' | awk -F " " '{print $1}'`.log,
BAD=`echo $line | sed 's/should goes to/ /g' | sed 's/-//g' | awk -F " " '{print $1}'`.bad,
DATA=`echo $line | sed 's/should goes to/ /g' | sed 's/-//g' | awk -F " " '{print $1}'`.txt
USERID=scott/tiger
done <tmp.txtAll I am trying to run from the above shell script is : -- PLEASE TEST it if it matches your requirement.
SQLLDR CONTROL=text_file_1.ctl, LOG=text_file_1.log, BAD=text_file_1.bad, DATA=text_file_1.txt USERID=scott/tiger
SQLLDR CONTROL=text_file_2.ctl, LOG=text_file_2.log, BAD=text_file_2.bad, DATA=text_file_2.txt USERID=scott/tiger
SQLLDR CONTROL=text_file_3.ctl, LOG=text_file_3.log, BAD=text_file_3.bad, DATA=text_file_3.txt USERID=scott/tigerRepeating my assumptions, I assume you have all those files required for SQLLDR process to run (ctl file, data file...)

In work flow Settings I selected to manually start .Is this possible ? if possible please guide me how to do this
Thanking you,

Hi,
If you have an instance of SPListItem, and know the workflow association name, you can start it. First you need to find workflow assocation instance and tell SPSite.SPWorkflowManager to start your workflow.
See this for more information:
