Loading a text file into Terminal App

Hi,
I am trying to load a textfile into my Terminal App using the Import utility under the Shell drop down menu.
But when I try choosing the text files after clicking Import, I am unable to select a text file because they are
all greyed out. Only folders seems to be selectable.
Please help.

I have no idea what you are trying to do. What does "load a textfile" mean?
The Import… command is for importing a Terminal settings file (exported using the Export Settings… command on another computer or user).

How can I use sql loader to load a text file into a table

Hi, I need to load a text file that has records on lines tab delimited into a table. How would I be able to use the sql loader to do this? I am using korn shell to do this. I am very new at this...so any kind of helpful examples or documentation would be very appreciated. I would love to see some examples to help me understand if possible. I need help! Thanks alot!

You should check out the documentation on SQL*Loader in the online Oracle document titled Utilities. Here's a link to the 9iR2 version of it: http://otn.oracle.com/docs/products/oracle9i/doc_library/release2/server.920/a96652/part2.htm#436160
Hope this helps.

Loading a text file into a global variable issue - really a global var?

From all the documentation and examples I can find, it appears that it would be
correct to create a global array variable [outside of any functions] to load image names into,
then use these images for a slideshow. I want to make the app dynamic, in that changing the text file gives a new set of images.
The global variable goes null [no values] after the load event listener. Why is that?
Isn't global, well global, and alive for the duration of the SWF?
PARAMS.TXT:
monthNames=January,February,March,April,May,June,July,August,September,October,November,De cember&dayNames=Sunday,Monday,Tuesday,Wednesday,Thursday,Friday,Saturday
CODE:
var dNames:Array = new Array();
var mNames:Array = new Array();
var request:URLRequest = new URLRequest("images/params.txt");
var variables:URLLoader = new URLLoader();
variables.dataFormat = URLLoaderDataFormat.VARIABLES;
variables.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, completeHandler);
try
variables.load(request);
catch (error:Error)
trace("Unable to load URL: " + error);
trace("2 mNames 2: " + mNames[2]);
trace("2 dNames 3: " + dNames[3]);
stop();
function completeHandler(event:Event):void
var loader:URLLoader = URLLoader(event.target);
dNames = loader.data.dayNames.split(",");
mNames = loader.data.monthNames.split(",");
trace(loader.data.dayNames);
trace("1 mNames 2: " + mNames[2]);
trace("1 dNames 3: " + dNames[3]);
OUTPUT:
2 mNames 2: undefined
2 dNames 3: undefined
Sunday,Monday,Tuesday,Wednesday,Thursday,Friday,Saturday
1 mNames 2: March
1 dNames 3: Wednesday
How do I access these values after loading from the external file, after the load?
Thanks in advance.

The statement you quoted from whatever Adobe documentation is correct.
If you want to load the data into the arrays before anything else happens, then have anything else that happens execute via the completeHandler function... after the data is loaded and processed into the arrays.
the command: loadFile() executes before the trace("2:" +images[4]); command. The loadFile function is processed and the loading process BEGINS... but starting the loading does not delay the main processing from continuing down the line--the loading itself becomes a secondary/background task. The command was to execute the loadFile function and the processing of that function was completed. If you don't believe so, then add a trace...
function loadFile():void
     vars.dataFormat = URLLoaderDataFormat.VARIABLES;
     vars.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, onComplete, false, 0, true);
     vars.load(new URLRequest("images/fnames.txt"));
     trace("started loading");
If you add that trace, you should see that the loadFile function execution is completed and the next line in your code is then processed... trace(2....)
The addEventlistener does not stop anything. The addEventListener code is assigning a monitor, not a traffic controller... it is telling the monitor to indicate when the data has finished loading. It is not telling anything to stop program execution.
So if you want to wait until the data is loaded before you do anything else... it goes....
function onComplete(evt:Event):void
     var urlVars:URLVariables = evt.target.data;
     images = vars.data.images.split(",");
     tnails = vars.data.thumbnails.split(",");

Well, i need to treat those contents, and calculate values withing those files, so wrinting files using FileInputstream wont do. for instance i need to get line 5 from file 1, split it, grab a value according to its class (value also taken) and compare it with another line of another file, adding those values to asingle file.
that's why i need vector capabilities, but since these files have more than 5 Mb each, an out of memory error is returned by loading those values into vector.
A better explanaition:
Each file has a line like
CLIENTNUM CLASS VALUE
so if the client is the same withing 2 files, i need to sum the lines into a single file.
If class is the same, then sum values, if not add it to the front.
we could have a final line like
CLIENTNUM CLASS1 VALUE1 CLASS2 VALUE2

How to load external text file into a Form?

Hi,
I made a menu with 1-5 in a Form and 5 external text files. I want the user who is able to view the text content of the text file when he chooses one of them from the menu. And the text file screen has a "Back" command button to let him go back.
How can I do it and can it support other languages such as Chinese and Japanese?
Thanks for help.
gogo

Sorry, I made the mistake about the subject, it should be loading local file, not external file through http.
I wrote a method but it throwed an exception when the midlet was run.
private void loadText()
try {
InputStream is = this.getClass().getResourceAsStream("/text.txt");
StringBuffer sb = new StringBuffer();
int chr;
while ((chr = is.read()) != -1)
sb.append((char) chr);
is.close();
catch (Exception e)
System.out.println("Error occurs while reading file");
I put the text.txt file in the same folder with the main file (extends midlet). How can I load the text content and display it on StringItem?
Thanks for any help.

Loading a text file on startup into a hashtable

I am trying to load to seperate textfiles into the same hashtable.
The textfiles are something like an employee and employee number everything goes in at the same time. How do i load these text files into the hashtable. Also any good tutorials or code samples on hashtables would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks In Advance

You read the text files, one line at a time, and break up each line in whatever way you need to. Then you choose the bits to put in the hashtable (key and value) for each line and put those bits into the hashtable.

How to load a text file int JEditorPane and highlight some words (Urgent !)

I want to load a text file into a JEditorPane and then highlights some keywords such as while,if and else.I am using an EditorKit in order to style the JEditorPane. I have no difficulty while giving the input through the keyboard but lots of exceptions are thrown if i try to load the string from a file.

Hi,
I think the setCharacterAttributes(int offset, int length, AttributeSet s, boolean replace) will solve the problem.
You can create your own Styled Document and set it to the Editor Pane.

Loading a text file to a buffer

Hi,
I have a very simple question,
I have a text file which I want to read and load it in a string buffer, but I don't want to user BufferedReader and append line by line,
is it possible to load the text file into StringBuffer without any loops / appends?
Thanks,
S.

File file = new File("fileName.fileExtension");
byte[] c = new char[file.length()];
FileReader reader = new FileReader(file);
try{
reader.read(c);
}catch(IOException e) { System.out.println("An error has ocurred");}
String makeMeString = new String(c);
Stringbuffer buff = new StringBuffer(makeMeString);

Comp-FreakFirst of all, you are going to have to sign your applet if you want access to the local file system (applets run on the client, not the server).
Second of all ... looking at your code, what is "date?" Is it a String (guessing based on your return value...) here is a simple routine to read a text file, line by line:
try {
   BufferedReader br = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(new FileInputStream("myfile")));
   String input;
   while( (input = br.readLine() != null ) {
       System.out.println(input);
} catch (FileNotFoundException fnfe) { System.err.println("File not found."); }
   catch (IOException ioe) { ioe.printStackTrace(); }

SQL Loader - Loading Text File into Oracle Table that has carriage returns

Hi All,
I have a text file that I need to load into a table in Oracle using SQL Loader. I'm used to loading csv or comma delimited files into Oracle so I'm not sure what the syntax is when it comes to loading a text file that essentially has one value per row and each row is separated by a carriage return. So when you open the text file, the records look like this:
999999999 <CRLF>
888888889 <CRLF>
456777777 <CRLF>
456555535 <CRLF>
345688888 <CRLF>
So each row is separated by a hard return and I need to tell sql loader that the hard return or next row is the next value to insert into the table. Below is an example of a control file I tend to use as a template for loading csv files but I need to modify it to accomodate this new structure.
OPTIONS (DIRECT=TRUE,ROWS=100000)
UNRECOVERABLE
LOAD DATA
INFILE 'C:\input.txt'
BADFILE 'C:\input.bad'
APPEND
INTO TABLE TEST_TABLE
FIELDS TERMINATED BY ","
TRAILING NULLCOLS
COLUMN_1
How to I modify the control file above to use hard returns as the field/row delimiter for my text file?
Thanks

"Launch;7.1.7.6"
"Engine;7.1.7.6"
"OSX;7.0.0.2" (or something close to that)
and I was wondering how do i just get it to take it fromt he
file.. line for line from where it says exeversion in the file and
list it in the listbox...
I'm really thankful to anybody that helps.
Data in text file:

How can I load a .TXT file into a dynamic text box?

I am sure that many people know how to load a .txt file into
a dynamic text box. But I do not. I want to be able to reference a
txt file from the server into the text box. So that when I change
the text file it changes in the flash movie without even editing
the flash file itself. Thank you.

I think this is the simplest way to go :)

How to load a text file (ASCII) into a TS string variable?

I need to load a ASCII file into a TS string variable for subsequent processing. I tried the SecuenceBuilder DLL (in the examples directory) but it seems that this DLL has a bug. Some text files are not loaded properly. I have also tried the kernel32 functions (openfile, createfile, readfile ... ) handling them as a C program, but with no success. The property loader feature of TS is not the suitable solution for me, because I would have to modify all my text files to include some specific fields (step name, variables, starmarker ...). Doy you know an alternative procedure to load text files or any DLL that implements what I look for ? Any help would be grateful. Cesar ([email protected])

Hi Cesar,
I don't know if you have found a solution, but attached is a DLL built in VC that will read the text out of a file into a TestStand variable. The attached sequence file \SequenceFile1.seq contains a step type that is set to call the DLL responsible for reading the file. It reads the file specified under Step.FilePath and stores the data in Step.ReadData. Please let me know if this works for you. I have attached the source as well.
Regards,
Bob
