    i have exactly the same problem with KXml2, but using a j2me-polish netbeans project.
    i've tried to work around with similar ways like you, but none of them worked. now i've spent 3 days for solving this problem, i'm a bit disappointed :( what is wrong with setting the downloaded kxml2 jar path in libraries&resources?

  • 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.

  • How to display RTF File in Browser Using Servlets/JSPs

    Hi All,

    The data needs to be displayed in the frame of jsp page .
    How i can display the RTF File Content using either servlets/jsps
    Can any body have idea on this.
    Help me out on this.
    With Regards
    Hari

    If you only need to display it, consider your HttpServletRequest just as byte stream. :) Just read from ServletInputStream and write it back into ServletOutputStream of HttpServletResponse.
    If you want to process incoming XML, please give some details first, what exactly you want to do. :)

    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));

                   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.

  • How to view RTF files on iPad

    I understand that I can't open RTF files on my iPad, is there a way to batch convert the RTF files on my iMac then transfer them for viewing on my iPad?

    You can email them for one way to transfer them - You can read them - as -is as mail attachments. Here are the out of the box file formats that can be viewed from mail.
    Viewable document types: .jpg, .tiff, .gif (images); .doc and .docx (Microsoft Word); .htm and .html (web pages); .key (Keynote); .numbers (Numbers); .pages (Pages); .pdf (Preview and Adobe Acrobat); .ppt and .pptx (Microsoft PowerPoint); .txt (text); .rtf (rich text format); .vcf (contact information); .xls and .xlsx (Microsoft Excel)
    If you want to save and edit them, you need a compatible app like Pages or Documents to Go. There are plenty of other available in the app store.

  • Spotlight - how to find RTF files with the query language (kMDItemKind,etc)

    Hi folks. I'm trying to come up with a string that will find all RTF files.
    There are many strings for other docs -- like Microsoft Word is
    kMDItemContentType == "com.microsoft.word.doc"
    But I am trying to create one that will find all RTF files. There doesn't seem to be a kMDItem command for extension or anything, and if I type "com.nisus.writer" I'd just be guessing. And I only want to include RTF files.
    I'm probably missing something obvious, but I'm a complete non-programmer (obviously).
    Thanks.

    That's a partial solution, but it would be very helpful if one could somehow get the pathname onto the clipboard.  Being able to see the pathname is a lot less useful than being able to use it.

  • How to parse text file?

    Hi,
    I would like to read data from a text file that my program has created.
    This is what I have when I create my file:
    try
                   File file = new File("/Users/seifmouelhi/Desktop/Output.txt");
                   FileOutputStream out = new FileOutputStream(file);
                   PrintStream print = new PrintStream(out);
                   System.setOut(print);
              catch(Exception e)
                   System.out.println("set system out failed!!!!!");
                   System.out.println(e.toString());
                   System.exit(0);
    and what can I use to parse this file?
    every word is separated with a "\t". I used MyString.split("\t"), but is returns me back null value...
    What can you advise me?
    Thanks a lot!

    Well, here is the short code:
    private static int aX;
    private static int X;
          * @param args
         public static void main(String[] args) {
              BufferedReader entree = new BufferedReader( new InputStreamReader(System.in));
              String cmd = "";
              String type="";
              try {
                   cmd = entree.readLine();
                   String[] res = cmd.split("\t");
                   if(res[0]=="accelero"){
                        type="accelero";
                        aX = Integer.parseInt(res[1]);
                   else if(res[0]=="touch"){
                        type="touch";
                        X = Integer.parseInt(res[1]);
                        System.out.println("touch:"+X);
                   else if(res[0]=="0.0"){
                        type="data";
                   System.out.println(type);
                   System.out.println("accelero:"+aX);
              } catch (IOException e) {
                   // TODO Auto-generated catch block
                   e.printStackTrace();
              String[] rix = cmd.split("\t");
         }when you try this code, you should write (for example): accelero 35
    there is a \t between accelero and 35, and I want the system to print accelero, and 35 once the full string was split.
    System.out.println(type); --> prints nothing
    System.out.println("accelero:"+aX); --> prints accelero:0
    I want simply to use the res. It seems like the string.split doesn't work in this example.
