How to parse binary files

Hi All,
I have one binary file (abc.dat) file I want to parse that file and need it in text format.
Can anyone tell me how can I achieve that? is there any third party tools available?
lines are like below:
00000000h: 76 04 00 01 00 FF 0F 11 FF 09 07 03 15 ; v....
can anyone have idea how can i resolve this?
Thanks!!!

Hi
thanks for reply...
actually what I want is a line that I have posted in first conversation the whole file has lines like that. Now, I want to convert that file in to text format.
right now I am reading lines with the below code...
try{
               FileInputStream fstream = new FileInputStream("test.dat");
               DataInputStream in = new DataInputStream(fstream);
               BufferedReader br = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(in));
               //BufferedInputStream bufferedInputStream = new BufferedInputStream(in);
               String strLine;
//               Read File Line By Line
               while ((strLine = br.readLine()) != null) {
//                Print the content on the console
               System.out.println (strLine);
//               Close the input stream
               in.close();
               }catch (Exception e){//Catch exception if any
               System.err.println("Error: " + e.getMessage());
               }and I don't get output in the text format.
So, after doing this can anyone please tell me how can I get decoded format file?
what are the next steps I should go?
For, example we can go for (index.dat) file.
Thanks!!!

    Using servlets..how to upload binary file into database...
    How to get the data of file in servlet...
    Please reply...i'm unable to find exact code...that i want..

    You need to do two separate parts: accept the file from a HTTP multi-part POST and then stream it into a BLOB on the database. To do the former, download Jakarta Commons FileUpload. There is extensive documentation on how to write a simple handler for the upload. You then need to send the data to a BLOB. The specifics vary from database to database but generally you will insert or update a row with an empty blob, get a reference to the blob, pipe the data and then commit.
    If you do a quick forum search, this question has been asked (and answered) dozens of times. Some of the replies may even have code for you. Best of luck.

  • How to parse xml file, containing image,  generaged from JAX-RS connector?

    Hi,
    We are using JAX-RS connector and just want to call getBusinessObjects() directly using JerseyMe (basically bypassing sync engine). We have used sync engine so far and want to try as how to bypass it. The method produces the text/xml and verified the xml file in the web by giving the full url. The plan is to call the same URL from the Java Me Client using JerseyMe. When I print the bytes at the client I receive the same xml that I have seen in the web. Actually, I am passing an image that I can see in a different character format in xml (assuming this is bcos of UTF-8 encoding). I am wondering as how to parse this xml file and how to decode the "UTF-8" format? Do we need to use SGMP for this or use kxml or java me webservices spec.
    I would really appreciate if somebody can answer this one.
    I have been observing in this forum that SGMP team is not at all active in answering the questions. Please let us know whether Oracle is keeping this product and we can continue using SGMP1.1. Please let us know so that we can plan accordingly as we are building a product based on SGMP.

    Hi Rajiv,
    The client library is using org.apache.commons.codec.binary.Base64 internally. We don't have the full Commons Codec library bundled, but you can look up the javadoc for the Base64 class online. All you need to do is call Base64.decode(obj.getBytes()) on the objects you get out of the XML.
    In general it isn't a good idea to depend on implementation details of the client library, but in this case, I think it is pretty safe to expect org.apache.commons.codec.binary.Base64 to remain in our library.

  • Parsing binary file- unsigned longs

    Hello everyone.
    I'm currently trying to write a quick parser for a binary file format (ASF). However, java's handling of bit shifting and lack of unsigned types is driving me completely mad.
    How can I represent an unsigned long?
    How can I set the bits for it anyway? It seems that the shift operator can't shift more than an int's worth (it just loops around and starts adding to the other bits- weird).
    Thanks in advance.

    But why in the world does the following code also do nothing?
    long x = 45 << 32;
    Try long x = 45L << 32;
    The answer appears to be that java uses ints to represent all constants, but this presents some serious problems- namely- how on earth do you get a number bigger than an int into a long?With 'L'. Same as in C or C++. In Visual Basic it's '&'. There's generally something.Where did that come from? Why have I never seen anything like that before?
    If I do long x = 0x7FFFFFFF; all is well, but if I do long x = 0x80000000; I get FFFFFFFF80000000, which isn't what I asked for.Actually it is exactly what you asked for. You've overlooked several facts: (i) Java longs are 64 bits; (ii) you specified a negative 32-bit constant; (iii) the rules of every programming language I can think of provide for sign-extension when going from a shorter to a longer type.Right. It makes sense now that I know how to specify long constants.
    As someone pointed out signed/unsigned is actually the same, so long as you interpret it correctly. So to avoid the total stupidity of using twice as much memory for everything I've decided that I am actually going to use the correct types.They're not the correct types. As I pointed out in an earlier post, your 'unsigned longs' must be coming from C or C++ where they are generally 32 bits, so using a 64-bit Java long is incorrect.Where they came from doesn't matter. The spec doesn't say it's a "long"- it says that this particular value is 64bit, and that all values are unsigned. So I do need a Java long.
    WHY IN THE WORLD IS JAVA "INTELLIGENT" WHEN DOING THINGS BITWISE? WHICH BRAIN DEAD IDIOT THOUGHT THAT UP? That is broken and is asking for trouble.It is you who is asking for trouble here. The rules of Java are consistent and in conformity with the practice in other programming languages. You've just overlooked several relevant facts.I think I've worked out where I was going wrong here. When doing something like
    int i;
    long x;
    x = x | i;The i is converted to a long before the bitwise operation, so it's not the bitwise operation that's the problem, it's the conversion between int and long?
    It's not Java whose stupidity is the issue here ;-)That wouldn't surprise me.
    Thanks.

  • How to read binary file in Matlab

    "Hello all!
    Labview 7.0 has an example "Cont Acq to File (binary).vi" log the PCI 6014 card and writes the data to a binary file. How can I read that
    file in Matlab(6.5.0... R13)? Does anyone have a solution for this?

    Hello,
    Basically you can do it by saving the data in a file in MATLAB and reading it directly from LabVIEW, or vice versa. In MATLAB , the command "save" allows you to save the data in binary format (*.mat) or ASCII format. You also have an option of saving it in ASCII format using a tab delimiter between data points.
    There is a knowledge base which talks in detail about how to share data in between labview and matlab Import data from labview to Matlab and vice versa.
    Hope this helps. If not, please feel free to ask more questions.
    Good luck and have a great day!

  • How to read binary files wrt specific BYTE size and length??

    Hello Everyone,
                                I have a project I want to accomplish. I have a binary file, and I would like to read the data and print on wfm in a specific order and size.
    The data is 16 bit binary type , and needs to be read in chunks of 2 bytes.
    i have 30 bytes of sample 1.
    followed by 2 bytes of sample 2.
    followed by another 2 bytes of sample 3.
    steps 2-4 should be repeated 10 times and then i should read sample 4 which is of 2 bytes.....
    How should I do it?? I don't have any VI build... all i have is the example VI...
    can anyone pleasehelp me???
    Now on LabVIEW 10.0 on Win7

    smercurio_fc, sorry for the confusion, i will try my best to explain...
    1. No, i don;t have to read the file again, once it has read, I used
    while loop just to see the data updating (i press run, and before i can
    visualize i have the waveforms; i can get rid of the while loop)
    2. I have 30 different values of 1 sample. actually, the data is cmg
    from tri-axial accelerometer; each axis is of 10 bytes(hence 3*10 =
    30bytes)
    3. I am repeating the steps 2-4 10 times because the data was written
    into the binary file after 10 times sampling the sensors(if first 3
    samples are read @ 1000hz, sample 4 was read at 1000/10 = 100hz)
    4. I am using the graphs to interpret the values, that's it. The
    values are already scaled when they were wrote to the binary file, I
    have to simply interpret it.
    I have made some changes in the VI, now i am reading only the first
    30bytes, that too, in chunks of 10-10-10 bytes, and plotting the 3
    samples simultaneously on a waveform chart. (will approach 1
    sensor/sample at a time) and running the loop for 10 times. I have changed I8 to I16 now.
    Please let me know if it makes sense to you now.
    P.S. each sample is a sensor data.
