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.

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 in EBCDIC file created by receiver file adapter

    Hi mates,
    I've configured the receiver file adapter to create a file in EBCDIC format by specifyin the File encoding 'Cp037'. When the file is viewed on the AS400 system using the command DSPPFM, it appears as a continuous text instead of line-by-line. I've tried specifying 0x0D(CR), 0x0A(LF), 'nl' as the endSeparator for the record type in content conversion, but no luck. Still the file looks like a continuous text.
    I learnt from the following links that the New Line character (NL or NEL) in AS400 is Unicode '0x85'.
    <a href="http://bugs.sun.com/bugdatabase/view_bug.do?bug_id=4867251">OutputStreamWriter/InputSreamReader convert NEL to linefeed with Cp037 encoding</a>
    <a href="http://search.cpan.org/~guido/libintl-perl-1.16/lib/Locale/RecodeData/IBM037.pm#CHARACTER_TABLE">CHARACTER TABLE</a>
    But when I specify this '0x85' as the endSeparator, I get the error below as 0x85 (decimal equivalent 133) is not part of the standard ascii code i.e. basic 127 codes
    <i>Conversion initialization failed: java.lang.Exception: java.lang.NumberFormatException: Value out of range. Value:"85" Radix:16</i>
    Is there any way I can produce the EBCDIC file with new line as end separator for records?
    I appreciate your inputs.
    thx in adv
    praveen

    Instead of using binary mode for FTP and specifying encoding, endSeparator, I used the text mode and left the translation to the FTP server on AS400 system.
    Desirably, it generated the file with right encoding and new line characters.

  • 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.

    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)

  • 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.

  • 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>.

    </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.

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

    In XML, "&#10;" is only the new line character. I have tried that. If you put that in your XML, for example:
    <tag>line1&#10;line2&#10;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.

  • Need help in how to print new line character in unix using java

    Hi All,
    I use the printstream class to print some line in a text using java.
    here is the code:
       FileOutputStream out; // declare a file output object
            PrintStream p; // declare a print stream object
                    p.print("\t");
                    p.print(date);
                    p.print("\t\t");
                    p.print(RecCount);
                    p.println("\n");when i use this and output of this character in windows is
    date RecCount
    22-07-2007 23456
    when i use the same code in unix it shows the following output:
    date RecCount[]22-07-2007
    it wont accept the new line character could any one give me an idea to solve this problem.

    PrintStream has a println() method. Use that. Or System.getProperty("line.separator").
    Because a newline char doesn't necessarily specify a line break. It's system-dependent.

  • 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 &amp; 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.

  • Force Windows New Line Character

    Hi,
    I've a problem with new line character. I am in Windows platform but
    when I write a file with a BufferedWitter with println I obtain the

    Can someone tell me how can I obtain files with the correct \r\n

  • 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.

  • 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?
    Greetz FK

    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.
