Java delimiter for multiple white space

Hi
Is there a delimiter for multiple spaces? Or is there a simple way to check for more than one space and then replace them with a single white space or another delimiter?
Thanks
Brian

Basically I am reading in a file which is separated by spaces, but some of the names have a space in it.
I can split most of it fine due to the numerical only value at the beginning and the bracket etc.

It is not obvious to me what you are trying to do though if you are trying to split a line at points of more than one space then you just needString[] splitLine = line.split(" {2,}");

How can I maintain multiple white spaces in a PDF written from InDesign?

I need to have 2 white spaces maintained (within a part #) in the PDF I write, but when I open in Acrobat it converts it to one space.
I've tried word spaces, set spaces and applying "no color" to a placeholder character and nothing is working!
Any ideas or suggestions?

I am talking about normal white space. Multiple fixed widt spaces are not a problem. How the space is handled in a PDF depends on how it is created.

It may not be a great idea to use multiple spaces, but it certainly is not prohibited and sometimes is necessary -- you might want a 2em space, or a thin space before and after a tab you underline in a form.
I'm able to select the multiple spaces just fine in Acrobat 9 using the text touch-up tool.

Delimiter for multiple display fields

Hi ,
Is there any way in MDM so we can change the delimiter for multiple display fields.
Suppose for a lookup table code and description both are display fields.In Data manager when we select main table as our current table ,value in that lookup field will appear as code,description ,but as per the requirement it should be hyphen separated i.e code- description.
Is there any way we can change the delimiter.
Thanks in Advance
Regards,
Neethu Joy

Hi Neethu,
No, there is no way to change the delimiter but I can suggest you some workaround.
Create one more field in same lookup table and mark it as display field. Create one assignment with the expression code&"-"&Description and put it in workflow having trigger action = Record Create and Record Update with Automatic launch action. With this, whenever you modify lookup data i.e. either code or description workflow will automatically update the third filed.
Just check if this fits in your requirement.

How to detect multiple white spaces?

Hi,
I am working on an assignment where I have to read from a file and initialize the fields of my graph based on the input.
My problem is determining the input to be assigned to some field with some rule on the input file.
The input file will consist of 2 city names and the distance between them.
- Zero or more space is allowed to preceed the first city name
- one or more space between first city and second city, - - one or more space between first city and distance.
Example:
San Diego Boston 150
So I have to assign city1 = San Diego
city2 = Boston
distance = 150
I tried to do it with string tokenizer and string manipulation(like indexOf() and length()) but it does not seem to be working.
Any help will be appreciated.
Thanks!

Sorry for the added ugliness, but this works:import java.util.regex.*;
public class Test
    public static void main(String[] args)
        String s = "    'San Diego' Boston    123   ";
        Matcher m = Pattern.compile("('[^']*')|([^ ']+)").matcher(s);
        while(m.find())
            String g = m.group(1);
            if(g == null)
                System.out.println(m.group(2));
            else
                System.out.println(s.substring(m.start() + 1, m.end() - 1));
}I'm still a bit new to regex ;) None of this is probably helpful to you if you don't have 1.4, but at least I'm having fun :D

Syndicator - Specifying delimiter for multiple-valued field

Hi,
How can (if we can, that is) we specify a delimiter to split a multi-valued source field into multiple fileds in MDM syndicator? I believe if we have <b>';'</b> as delimiter we can spilt a multi-valued field into multiple fields but what if I have <b>'/'</b> or some other character as a delimiter. Can I use that to split my multi-valued field? If yes then how?
Regards,
-Y

Hi Yasir,
I doubt whether we can anywhere specify the delimiter in syndicator from ';' to anyother as you mentioned, but otherwise the multi-valued field steps as follows...
1. right click on the field from the source grid
2. choose Split Multi-Valued Field > n
3. The Syndicator adds the split items to the Source Items grid
hope this might helps...
cheers

White space in regular expressions (Pattern class)

Hello,
I have to check if a String contains ONLY the following characters: a-z, A-Z, ' and ( ) .
The regular expression that I wanted to use with the Pattern class was [[a-zA-Z][\u0027][\u0028][\u0029][\s]] .
Now, my compiler (Eclipse) doesnt recognize \s as an expression. Is this the proper expression for a white space?
Also, in this notation, will the Pattern check for the order of the characters, cause the order isn't supposed to matter.
I would appreciate any help you could give me on this subject.
With Best Regards, Roderick

I'm not a regex expert, but I don't see any of the regex gurus online, and this I can tell you.
my compiler (Eclipse) doesnt recognize \s as an expressionYou need to escape the backspace in a String literal. Use"\\s"
in this notation, will the Pattern check for the order of the charactersFor that I think (note:think, not know) you need to put the entire set of characters to be matched in one character class. Could you try this and post back whether it works for your requirement?"[^a-zA-Z'()\\s]"Note the negation operator at the start of the characer class, which will match positive for any character not in the character class.

edit You can test your regex here:
{color:0000ff}http://www.dotnetcoders.com/web/Learning/Regex/RegexTester.aspx{color}
but remember to double the backslashes whe you include it in your java code as a String literal.

Adding custom stamps to many pages in white space.

Is there any way to add a custom stamp to every page of a PDF book and having it placed into the white space on the document? I have found a script that will do every thing except for the 'white space' part of my query, so I don't think I will have much luck.
Watermarks will probably not work in this instance, the stamp needs to be noticible but not in the way, and the watermark will encouter the same placement problem (as it is preferable if the stamp/watermark is not getting the in way of the drawing pdf's content).
Any help will be appreciated, just let me know if you need more clarification.

The question is what do you mean by "white space"? Is it always the same area on the page (like a 2" margin), or is it a different location for each page, where there happens to be no text or images? The former is possible, the latter only partially, and is very difficult to implement with a script.

White space around image when doing Save for Web

Say I draw a simple square in Illustrator CS6 then export it to a PNG using Save for Web. The preview shows 1px thick of white space on the right side. Sometimes it's on 2 sides or more.
No other hidden elements are around the image. Clip to artboard in not clicked.
Why does this happen and how do we get rid of it?

For once I get to answer a post and say somehting good about align to pixel grid.
Turn it on
Your image will now align to the pixel grid
Turn it off when not doing web work, or will drive you mad.

Conditional Build Tab for image leaves extra white space

I've applied the "Print" Conditional Build Tag to an image in
my online help. When I generate the help and view it in the
browser, extra white space is inserted between the steps. For
example, instead of the steps being:
1.
2.
3. etc.
They now look like this:
1.
2.
3. etc.
Why is there extra white space where the image used to be?
Thanks in advance for your help. Using RoboHelp7 -- WebHelp.
Bill

Probably there is a paragraph break or a space that you can't
see but is not enclosed in the conditional tag.
Check the html code immediately before and after the tag.

Search for White space within strings

create table emp_dtl
(empname varchar2(23));
Insert into emp_dtl values ('WAYNE');
Insert into emp_dtl values ('JOSEPH KRUPP');     --------- has white space
Insert into emp_dtl values ('YING ZONG LEE');    --------- has white space
Insert into emp_dtl values ('COHEN');
Insert into emp_dtl values ('MARIE');How can i search for empnames which has White space in it? From other OTN threads, I gathered that this has something to do with
chr(32)But i don't know how to put this in LIKE operator.

Hi,
SELECT *
FROM    emp_dtl
WHERE   REGEXP_LIKE (empname, '\s')
;will look for any kind of whitespace (including spaces, which are CHR (32)).
It may be more efficient to specifically list all the different whitespace characters, and see if the string changes when you remove all of them:
SELECT     *
FROM     emp_dtl
WHERE     empname != TRANSLATE ( empname
                       , 'x ' || CHR (9)     -- CHR (9) = <tab>
                                      || CHR (10)     -- CHR (10) = <newline>
                             || CHR (13)     -- CHR (13) = <return>
                       , 'x'

While browsing eBay, when I watch or bid on an item, and later view it again, many inches of white space appears before item appears. If I delete the clear recent history box, the pages will come up as they should for several times, then go back to a lot of extra white space. How can I prevent this? Thank you, Rick in English

As stated in 1.:

Obviously, it will not harm your computer provided you follow the instructions.

How do i crop "out" a piece of image=ex: how it will look when its cut for a window. Crop a white space in image?

How do i crop "out" a piece of image=ex: how it will look when its cut for a window. Crop a white space in image?

I think this will help if you are using version 11 or 12.
Make a selection with a selection tool of the area you want to remove.
Example: rectangular marquee tool - make a rectangle.
Use Select>Refine Edge:
Use the View section of this dialog box to see a few views.
If you need to refine the edge of the selection (smooth, feather, shift, etc.) you can do that in this dialog box.
You may want to check the box about remembering your settings in case you need to come back to them.
In the Output section, you can pick New Layer with Layer Mask and click OK.
You should see the hole in your image.
