New-line Character for a file opened in BINARY mode for O/P

Can anybody please tell me how to put a new-line charcter for each record in a file opened in Binary mode for O/p. I cant use text mode for other reasons in my scenario.
DATA: l_outdata TYPE xstring.
OPEN DATASET file FOR OUTPUT IN BINARY MODE.
Application logic to populate l_outdata
TRANSFER l_outdata TO file.
Any help, or attempt towards it will be duely rewarded,
Thanks in advance,
Sujit.

hi sujit,
1. how to put a new-line charcter for each record
but how will you decide, at which POSITION,
to put the new line character, if u have opened the file in binary mode.
2. However, if u know the exact positions(s),
u can use CL_ABAP_CHAR_UTILITIES=>CR_LF
to insert the new line character,
regards,

Want to know how to check for new line character in text file

Hi All,
I`m trying to read data from text file. However I`m not sure whether the data is in 1st line or nth line. Now I`m trying to read the text from the readline. But if text is "" and not NULL then my code fails. So I want to know how to check for new line character and go to next line to find the data. Please help.
Thanks
static int readandwriteFile(Logger logger,String filepath){
          BufferedWriter out = null;
          BufferedReader in = null;
          File fr = null;
          int get_count = 0;
          try     {
          if(new File(filepath).exists())
          fr= new File(filepath);
                    System.out.println("FileName: "+fr);
               if(fr != null){
in = new BufferedReader(new FileReader(fr));
                         String text = in.readLine();
                         if(text != null){
                         get_count = Integer.parseInt(text);
                         in.close();
                         else{
                              get_count = 0;
     else{
out = new BufferedWriter(new FileWriter(filepath));
     out.write("0");
            out.close();
               }          //Reading of the row count file ended.
          catch(Exception e) {
               e.printStackTrace();
          finally {
               try{               if (in != null) {
                         in.close();
          if (out != null) {
                         out.close();
          catch(Exception e) {
                    e.printStackTrace();
          return get_count;
     }

You are calling the readline() only once which means you are reading only the first line from the file...
Use a loop (Do-While preferably)
do{
//your code
}while(text == "")

Removing New Line Character in Input file

Hi Experts,
I Have a question about "New Line Character". I searched in SDN before posting this thread, But I didn't get answer.
Question:
Let me say my Client requirement first. After loading the data(Millions of Records) into SAP through LSMW, they asked write a program for validation of those loaded records based on I/P file. I wrote a program and It is success full.
But, the problem is when file is in Application server in 'BIN' format, a new line character(#) is created. While comparing the last record of each line, it doesn't match. How to remove this new line character(#) in I/P file for each line of record? Please see the below records for example
PROVINCIA DE BUENOS AIRE|   |1870|AR| #
PROVINCIA DE BUENOS AIRE|   |1876|AR| #
BOX 7407 PRINCETON|   |085437407|US|NJ#
5756 2 A   CAPITAL FEDERAL|   |1431|AR|00#
Note: This New line character is not matching the string "#".
Please help me guys, so many objects are related with this concept. I appreciate quick response. Please.
Thanks

Hi Arun, Ravi,
I wrote the code like this, here 'fil_curre' is currency key.
IF <l_wa_file_data>-fil_curre CS cl_abap_char_utilities=>newline.
          REPLACE ALL OCCURRENCES OF REGEX cl_abap_char_utilities=>newline
                                        IN <l_wa_file_data>-fil_curre WITH ''.
        ENDIF.
While executing the code, the cursor here, simply jumps to next step.
Any enhancements to this code or any new ideas?
Thanks

Try concatenating <b>cl_abap_char_utilities=>cr_lf</b> at the end of your line.
Data: data_string type string.
data_string = '123456789'.
concatenate data_string cl_abap_char_utilities=>cr_lf

New line character in File adapter

I am having a receiver file adapter which generates files with multiple lines.
My problem is when the target file is opened in notepad there is no line break and the lines comes as continous string with small rectangle as separator.This fails the target upload program.
When I remove those small squares in notepad and hit enter and then upload it gets uploaded successfully.
Is there any way to have line break so that new line will be generated each time (the documenation says the by-default it adds new line character then why in notepad it opens like a continous string?)
Thanks in advance.
Regards
Rajeev

Hello
I know by default File Adapter value is line break. But if I open that generated file in notepad, the record does'nt appear on the new line. Instead at the end of each line there is special character added at the end of each record. When I hit enter and deletes that special character and then try to load that file it gets loaded successfully.
So my problem is how to generate the file will give record on the new line. I tried to give 'nl' as endSeparator.
How to give hexadecimal values? I tried giving '0xHH' but that gives error in File Adapter
"Error: Conversion initialization failed: Exception: java.lang.NumberFormatException: For input string: "HH"
Thanks in advance.

New Line Character in OSB for sending email in proper format

Hi
We have a client requirement, where in we send an error email when ever an exception occurs in the OSB flow. We are using OSB 11g and we need to format the body within or before the publish activity using a replace activity something in the below manner (replace . in variable body (replace node contents))
fn:concat("Following Exception Occurred <NEW LINE>","ErrorCode: ",fn:data($fault/ctx.errorCode) etc etc)
Please tell us if there is a new line character available within OSB to format the email message. Please help its urgent. Thanks

Thanks a lot for the reply, but still in the email body, i see everything in one line (no enter0). I tried " ","",\n and CHR(13). All dont seem to work.
Also can you provide an example for &#13: (Ampersandhash13colon)
Please help.

Problem with new-line-character and java.io.LineNumberReader under AIX

Hi folks,
I got the following problem: I wrote a little parser that reads in a plain-text, tabulator-separated, line-formatted logfile (and later on safes the data to a 2-dimensional Vector). This logfile was originally generated by an AIX ksh script, however, I copied it on my Windows machine to work with it (for I'm using a Java editor that runs under Win Systems).
For any reason, Windows, and what is worse Java too, seems not to recognize correctly the new-line character (in the API it is written that this should be a newline '\n' or a carriage-return '\r' or one followed by the other) that marks the end of a line in the logfile.
Also, when I'm opening the logfile with the "Notepad"-editor, this special character does not seem to be recognized, every line is inserted right after the other.
On the other side, when I open the logfile with the built-in editor in the CMD-Shell ("Dos-shell"), the newline chars seem to be recognized correctly.
But when start my parser on the AIX-machine the newline does not seem to be recognized correctly again.
I tried to read in the logfile with MS-Excel and safe it as a plain-text, tabulator-separated, line-formatted logfile again, with such files my parser works fine both on the AIX as it does on Windows.
Any ideas? Anybody got over the same problem already?

Under windows, text files' lines are usually delimited by \r\n,
under Unix/Linux/AIX etc. \n
and under Mac \r.
I recommend to use the following editors, which are capable to handle files with Unix and Windows-styled line-delimiters or convert between these types:
Programmer's File Editor (PFE; available on Windows)
The Nirvana Editor (http://www.nedit.org/; available on Unix, MAcOS, Windows)
(BTW good old vim can handle that too. Transferring text files to windows in order to edit them, even using Excel for this purpose means your being a UNIX newbie, (I mean no offense by writing this) so vim is probably beyond your reach for the moment.)
Java normally assumes the platform's line delimiters where it is running, so if you transferred the file from Unix to Windows might be distrurbing.

plz help

Hi you can put a new line in a text file using System.getProperty("line.separator"). This implementation will work for every OS.
import java.io.*;
class Demo{
public static void main(String args[]) throws Exception {
FileWriter fr = new FileWriter("FileDemo.txt");
fr.write("AAAAAAAAAA");
fr.write(System.getProperty("line.separator"));
fr.write("AAAAAAAAAAA");
fr.close();
}

New line character and carriage return in XML, please help, thanks

In XML, "
" is only the new line character. I have tried that. If you put that in your XML, for example:
<tag>line1
line2
line3</tag>
You will get the output as follow:
line1
____line2
________line3
(where ___ represents space)
The output that I want is actually like:
line1
line2
line3
So I would like to ask how I can do this.
Thanks,
Jackie

while parsing your XML file you can directly suppress these newline and similar things in characters() method of SAX parser.
you can opt to do nothing when you encounter them else if it is normal character then use it to print it.

ADF: how to insert new line character in column of VO?

Hi Everyone,
Im using Jdev 11G.
i have a VO with 5 columns displayed on the ADF page.(VO has total 8 columns)
1 column is the combination of 3 columns. i concatenated the 3 columns and added new line character after each column chr(13).
VO query is working very fine in Toad. the columnn displays each concatenated column value after a new line character but the same query is not working in ADF.
The column which is concatenating 3 columns and has to display with new line character is not displaying new line character its just concatenating the 3 values and displaying it on the page.
wat can be the solution for this in ADF?
Thank you.

Setting escape="false" will allow putting html <BR> in the column and it will display ok however if your table allows export to excel the <BR> gets exported and displays as text in your exported file. Also & will export as & To prevent that, use your original text without the escape=false setting and insert LF or CR (10 or 13 character), then add inline style of white-space: pre-line; to column or to style class in your skin. That will cause all line feeds to wrap but will export to excel without mixing html in the export.

NEW LINE CHARACTER

i am trying to load text into the BASIC TEXT of the material. The input file has matnr and the text. The file we loaded is fine. But in the text editor the # for new line character appears and this is causing problem while writing the text in a sapscript.
so i am trying to remove the # for the new line character while we load the file. i am using
data: c_tab like CL_ABAP_CHAR_UTILITIES=>CR_LF. to split the file and it is not being recognized. The input file is a tab delimited text file from excel. and it has " at the begining and ending.
thanks in advance

that is problem with Xls , If u have text with any Delimitors then u will get this kind of Stuff.

Handling new line character in XML

Hi,
Question : How can we specify new line character in xml ?
Explaination for use :
I have a xml structure like :
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<MT_ISO8583_XML_request>
<TRANSDETAILS>.
<TRANSACTIONAMOUNT>0000000000000000</TRANSACTIONAMOUNT>

</TRANSDETAILS>
</MT_ISO8583_XML_request>
I am using Java mapping to convert xml to some satndard flat file format. It works fine for single message.
To handle multiple message i am using Multimapping split. Multimapping needs xml tags in traget structure also to split the message.
To achieve it without BPM, I want to take the whole content of my target file to one tag. When i do this i lost all the new line characters aslo. How can i preserve my new line character using XML ?
Regards
Kulwinder

Are you sure, that the nl characters are deleted?
They are usually not shown in the XML display.
You can also use an adapter module instead of a Java mapping. So you can do a split in mapping, but the conversion to the flat file in the adapter module. If you have already a Java mapping for this purpose, you can easily create an adapter module based on that Java code.

Insert and retrieve new line character in DB2

Hi,
I have a requirement in my project where I need to generate flat files to be sent to the bank for validation and for each record type in the flat file, I want to have a line separator inserted in the file. Now, the line seperator is configurable as a system option as per customers needs which is stored in the database (we are using DB2). Even though, I inserted '\n' (New line character) in the system option as a line separator, while retrieving from database through JDBC and appending to the flat file, it is not recognizing it as a new line character and simply appends '\n\ in the flat file.
Please suggest any solution for this.

Why with notepad I don't see 1 record per line? how to solve this problem?
Hi,
this is the problem, seems so clear.
To use wordpad as standard editor is not an answer, neither for me, nor for other people who receives mail.
No solution is a better answer.
