I desparately need to read a Japanese Clarisworks cwk file!

Hello Folks;
I am a volunteer with an anime convention.
One of our japanese musical guests has sent us a list of tech requirements in a clarisworks file.
I need to import it to something current (or find a place where i can buy something old ) that preserves the japanese so that i can get it translated so that we can get the equipment rented or tell them they need to bring their own.
(why is is still in clarisworks? i suspect it's because the artist or author of the list is reluctant to change tools)
I have tried just about everything under the sun in the open source and shareware realm and had limited success.
With a shareware program who's name escapes me (i am at work) i was able to read the english text in the file (things like 'MacBook Pro' and 'ProTools') but none of the japanese because it all showed up as '?' chars.
Do any of you have any suggestions as to how i could resolve this problem?
tnx!
johnu

Hello
Since you're using x86 Mac, your only option will be, I think, to get AppleWorks 6 (namely 6.2.4), install and use it via Rosetta under OSX.
As far as I can tell, AW6.2.3 (Classic component paired with AW6.2.4) can open ClarisWorks 4J's files. Don't know about older versions of CW.
I think AW6.2.8 (Classic component paired with AW6.2.9) will be able to open CW4J's files as well BUT AW6.2.9 will not according to various reports on this forum. And you cannot use AW6.2.8 with your Mac because it does not provide Classic environment. So avoid AW6.2.9/6.2.8 package, which will be useless in your case.
Try eBay, for one, to get AppleWorks 6.2.4.
I found AW6.2.4 at eBay.com at the time of this writing.
Good luck,
H
PS. AW6.2.4/6.2.3 English version can open files created by CW4J (Japanese version) without problems if you have Japanese resources, such as fonts, properly installed in your system.

Need to read data from a text file

I need to read data from a text file and create my own hash table out of it. I'm not allowed to use the built in Java class, so how would I go implementing my own reading method and hash table class?

It's not possible to read from a file without using classes from the core API*. You'll have to get clarification from your instructor as to which classes are and are not allowed.

*Unless you write a bunch of JNI code to replicate what the java.io classes are doing.

Need to read a field from flat file

Hi All,
    In flat file i have one field which may contain 100 enteries separated by delimanator ',' (comma). There can be 1 , 10 or 100 enteries.   I need to put them in the internal table . Please suggest me .
    I have used the below logic .
i split the field in 100 variables and then appending the internal table . the problem here is even if there is only one entry , the logic will append 99 blank enteries . so can any one suggest , is there any other way do it . any Functon Modules available .
Thanks.

Hi Chetan,
If i understand your requirement it is as below,
Flat file.
1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,....
1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,....
1,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,
Now you read the first line and split into an itab of type string, and you are worried about the third line where not all the fields have values and end up creating blank entries. to fix this, simply
Sort the Itab, and use delete itab statement with the where clause as where column is ''.
This should solve it.
types: begin of t_data,
            line type string,
           end of data.
data: li_file_line type standard table of t_data.
split l_file_line at ',' into li_file_line.
delete li_file_line where line = ''.

Read data from a text file, one line at a time.

I need to read data from a text file, and display each line in a String Indicator on Front Panel. It displays each line, but I get Error 4, End Of Line, unless I enter an extra line of data in the file that I don't need. I tried Read From Text File.vi, made by Nat Instr, and it gave the same error.

The Read from Text File.vi reads data from a text file line by line until the user stops the VI manually with the Stop button on the front panel, or until an error (such as "Error 4, End of file") occurs. If an error occurs, the Simple Error Handler.vi pops up a dialog that tells you which error occurred.
The Read from Text File.vi uses a while loop, but if you knew how many lines you wanted to read, you could replace the while loop with a for loop set to read that many lines from the file.
If you need something more dynamic because the number of lines in your files vary, then you could change the code of the Read from Text File.vi to the expect "Error 4, End of file" and handle it appropriately. This would require unbundling the error cluster that comes fro
m the Read File function with the Unbundle By Name function, so that you can expose the individual error "status" and error "code" values stored in the cluster. If the value of the error "code" is 4, then you can change the error "status" from true to false, and you can rebundle the cluster with the Bundle by Name function. Setting the error "status" to false instructs the Simple Error Handler to ignore the error. Otherwise, pass the original error cluster to the Simple Error Handler.vi, so that you can see what the error is.
Of course, if you're not interested in what the errors are, you could just remove the Simple Error Handler.vi, but then you wouldn't see any error messages.

Reading contents of uploaded excel file in web dynpro java

Hi All.
I am aware how to provide facility to upload files in web dynpro java. But my requirement is that on uploading a particular file (for eg. an excel file having 10 columns), I need to read the contents of that file and store it in a table in R/3.Can anyone suggest a way how I can read the contents of the uploaded file?
Thanks and Regards,
Saurabh.

Hi.
I am having the following requirement : I have a FileUpload UI element where user clicks Browse button, selects a file from the local system and presses a Upload button. Upon pressing Upload, the name of the selected file and the contents of the file should be shown.
In the View context, I have two value attributes: FileName of type String and FileResource of type binary.
This is the code that I have in the Upload button action handler :
public void onActionUpload(com.sap.tc.webdynpro.progmodel.api.IWDCustomEvent wdEvent )
    //@@begin onActionUpload(ServerEvent)
    IWDAttributeInfo attributeInfo = wdContext.getNodeInfo().getAttribute(
             IPrivateReadExcelView.IContextElement.FILE_RESOURCE);
    IWDModifiableBinaryType binaryType = (IWDModifiableBinaryType)attributeInfo.
             getModifiableSimpleType();
    IPrivateReadExcelView.IContextElement element = wdContext.createContextElement();
    String fname = binaryType.getFileName();
    wdComponentAPI.getMessageManager().reportSuccess("File selected - "+fname); //Statement 1
     try {
          wdComponentAPI.getMessageManager().reportSuccess("Successful");    // Statement 2
          InputStream in = new FileInputStream(fname);
          HSSFWorkbook wb = new HSSFWorkbook(in);
          wdComponentAPI.getMessageManager().reportSuccess("Successful");    //Statement 3
          int sheetsNo = wb.getNumberOfSheets();
          for (int i=0;i<sheetsNo;i++) {
               HSSFSheet sheet = wb.getSheetAt(i);
               Iterator rowsNo = sheet.rowIterator();
               while(rowsNo.hasNext()) {
                    HSSFRow rows = (HSSFRow)rowsNo.next();
                    Iterator colsNo = rows.cellIterator();
                    while(colsNo.hasNext()) {
                         HSSFCell cell = (HSSFCell)colsNo.next();
                         wdComponentAPI.getMessageManager().reportSuccess("File uploaded" +
                              "successfully");
                         if(cell.getCellType()==1) {
                              wdComponentAPI.getMessageManager().reportSuccess("00000"+
                                   cell.getStringCellValue());
                         else if(cell.getCellType()==0) {
                              String str=""+cell.getNumericCellValue();
                              wdComponentAPI.getMessageManager().reportSuccess("11111"+str);
     catch(Exception e) { wdComponentAPI.getMessageManager().raisePendingException();
    //@@end
On pressing Upload button, name of selected file is being shown(Statement 1). I am also getting Statement 2 in the output. However I am not getting Statement 3 onwards.
Where am I going wrong? Can anyone shed some light on this?

Read the content of a file (via socket)

Hi,
I need to read the content of a file (.txt, or better, .jpg) and to write it again in another file.
I have this code (in Javascript):
    conn = new Socket;
    conn.encoding = "BINARY";
    if (conn.open ("127.0.0.1:8888")) {
    conn.timeout=30;
    conn.writeln("GET variousFiles/file.jpg HTTP/1.1");
    reply = conn.read(999999);
    conn.close();
    var file = new File("C:/APPS/New_File.txt");
    file.encoding = 'BINARY';
    var open_file = file.open("w+");
    file.write(reply);
    } else { alert("Errore: " + conn2.error); }
However my new file is always empty, because I can not read the content of the first file.
My variable "reply" is always empty.
Thanks and best regards.

There is a particular case with sugested function, if content is generated on the fly by the server -php, cgi, etc.-
In this case, http server doesn´t knows total size of response data, so response shows a chunked transfer-encoding header and data is parted in chunks, each one starting with it´s size, and following the data.
HTTP/1.1 200 OK
Date: Tue, 30 Apr 2013 12:43:41 GMT
Server: Apache/1.3.31 (Win32) mod_fastcgi/2.4.1
Connection: close
Transfer-Encoding: chunked
Content-Type: image/jpeg
f49
ÿØÿà JFIF
I´m using this function to decode parted response, with initial chunkedString with firs chunk size; in this case, f49:
PartsSeparator="\r\n";
function getPartedBody(partedBodyString) {
    var separatorPosition=partedBodyString.indexOf(PartsSeparator);
    var chunkSize=new Number("0x"+partedBodyString.substring(0,separatorPosition));
    separatorPosition+=PartsSeparator.length;
    var bodyString=new String("BINARY");
    bodyString="";
    if (chunkSize>0)
        bodyString=partedBodyString.substring(separatorPosition,separatorPosition+chunkSize)+
            getChunkedResponse(partedBodyString.substring(separatorPosition+chunkSize+PartsSeparator. length));
    return bodyString;
Hope this helps

Kinect Explorer WPF C# read depth data from the file and conversion to skeleton

Hello,
I am using Kinect sensor to do some research on biometrics. Since it is impossible to find people to collect some samples, I would like to use samples from the TUM - GAID database, where there exist Color View and Depth View (in .raw format) samples. Therefore,
I need to read these samples from the file and do a batch processing, instead of performing real-time collecting of samples (where I can take automatically the Skeleton view using the Kinect SDK). So, I need help on
1. Reading the data from the file (instead of activating the Kinect sensor) and give this data as an input for conversion to a skeleton
2. Read the .raw files
Thank you very much
Kind regards

Hiya,
I doubt this forum, C Sharp, will provide much help. You are asking about the Kinects system not C#
language. However, you can try this link; http://kinectforwindows.codeplex.com/
Hope this help. Thanks :)

Reading data from a text file

Okay so basically i need to read some text from a file, and display it in a JTextArea. My problem is that when i read the data and display it, its all in one big long line. e.g:
in text file:
Hi
Hi
Hi
Hi
in textarea:
HiHiHiHi
I was wondering if it is possible to use some kind of a method that determines when reading the file if its at the end of a line or not, then create a new line.
this is part of my code:
chooser is a JFileChoose object.
                         File theFile = new    File(chooser.getSelectedFile().getPath());
                         FileReader reader = new FileReader(theFile);
                         BufferedReader buffer = new BufferedReader(reader);
                         String ss;
                         String aa = "";
                         while((ss = buffer.readLine()) !=null) {
                              aa = aa + ss;
                         text.setText(aa);
                         reader.close();

Help needed in setting up Japanese Database

Hi there,
Help needed in setting up Japanese Database.
I created database with UTF8 character set on Sun Solaris O/S.
Oracle version 8.1.7.
I am accessing the DB through SQL*Plus (Windows client).
I downloaded the Japanese font on client side and also set the NLS_LANG environment variable to Japanese_Japan.UTF8. Still, I am not able to view Japanese characters. O/S on client side is Windows 2000 professional (English). Is O/S (client) need to be Japanese O/S? When I try to retrieve sysdate, its displaying in Japanese but not all characters in Japanese. Can anyone help me out how to set up the client and is there any parameters to be setup at server side? I also tried to insert japanese characters into table through client, but it displaying as "?????" characters. Any help in this regard is appreciated.
Thanks in advance,
-Shankar

lol
your program is working just fine.
do you know what accept does? if not read below.
serversocket.accept() is where java stops and waits for a (client)socket to connect to it.
only after a socket has connected wil the program continue.
try putting the accept() in its own little thread and let it wait there while your program continues in another thread

Do we need to convert Chinese/Japanese properties to Unicode?

Dear friends,
I am new to this Internationalization concept. I have a web application and I am looking forward to implement Internationalization.
To make my app support muti-language, I am using Locale & Resource bundle to find properties files based on Country and Language. I have different properties files based on countries. This works fine when there are unicode characters and no special characters in the property file.
For eg. the application doesn't displays Chinese/Japanese characters with System.out.println at all. It displays something weird symbols..
P.S : I haven't converted Chinese/Japanese properties files to Unicode with native2ascii tool?
An important question for me is,
1) Do we need to convert Chinese/Japanese or any non-unicode related properties files with native2ascii tool?
2) Is there any other way to read such properties files without converting them with native2ascii tool?
3) We have made fixed UTF-8 format policy for the app. Is there any way to read those properties file with UTF-8 mechanism without need to convert the properties files?
4) If anyone has quick example code for displaying Chinese/Japanese characters from properties file, then that would be a great help.
Thanks a million. Any help would be highly appreciated.
sachin

System.out.println display depends on the system locale. If you are running on a US English system, Chinese and japanese will not display correctly in the console.
Your properties file questions:
1) Do we need to convert Chinese/Japanese or any non-unicode related properties files with native2ascii tool? yes
2) Is there any other way to read such properties files without converting them with native2ascii tool? - no
3) We have made fixed UTF-8 format policy for the app. Is there any way to read those properties file with UTF-8 mechanism without need to convert the properties files? no
