New line character not read..

Hi guys;
i'm writing a jsp application that has to write into a file...
the file has to be in the form of multiple lines of the form : login=password
i did the following:
String s=new String("");
String s2=new String("");
BufferedReader in = new BufferedReader(new FileReader(
"c:\\myflash\\myfile.txt"));
while((s=in.readLine())!= null){
s2 +=s+'\n';
s2 +=login+"="+password;
in.close();
PrintWriter outer = new PrintWriter(new BufferedWriter(new FileWriter(
"c:\\myflash\\myfile.txt")));
outer.println(s2);
outer.close();
the problem is the following: when i run the applications the data are written in the file without new line ...
it seems that the '\n' character did not got read!!
I don' know what's the problem!
please help!...

are you testing this on Windows? Are you determining that the newline chars aren't there by opening the file in another program? Most Windows programs will not recognize the \n by itself. It needs the \r\n combination. You might want to use System.getProperty("line.separator"), which will return the correct OS-specific line separator character(s).

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

    Hi All,

    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 == "")

  • New line character in cipher text?

    Friends,
    I am encrypting a text in Triple DES/CBC mode/Nopadding mode. the length of text is 6500 bytes. in the cipher text that i get, it has new-line character(\n) & carriage return characters. As a result of this i m unable to read the cipher text from a C program(as it is not fully reading the cipher text). is there any methodology to overcome this problem. is there any way to avoid the new-line & carriage return characters in cipher text.
    Also is there any criteria like, the plaintext can be only max of this much bytes?
    Thanks in Advance

    The result of your encryption is bytes and not characters so your C program should process it as bytes and not as characters then bytes '\r' and '\n' will not be interpretted.
    It would be interresting to see your C code.

  • 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.

  • 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.

  • Problem with CDATA and new line character

    I parse a xml document with org.w3c.dom, the document contain a CDATA section in which there are more lines of text, each line is terminated with the new line character (\n).
    Example:
    <nota>
    <[CDATA[
    first line
    second line
    third line
    ]]>
    </nota>
    When a parse this node:
    Text txt_nota=(Text)elm_nota.getFirstChild();
    String nota=txt_nota.getData();
    the value returned is one string with no new line characters, example:
    "first linesecond linethird line"
    what's wrong?

    Because i use the string nota into a jsp page and i print the string nota into a textarea and the text is with no newline, example:
    <textarea name="nota" rows="4" cols="60"><%= nota %></textarea>
    the text into textarea is:
    first linesecond linethird line
    but i want that the text displayed into textarea is equal the text into the CDATA section:
    first line
    second line
    third line

  • 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.

  • How to insert new line character?

    Hi all,
    I have two lines to print.
    out.println("Available number of columns="+cols);
    out.println("Number of columns must be present=10");My problem is:
    i want both the lines to be printed one below the other. But, it is displayed in one single line.....
    Can anyone please tell me how to insert new line character?
    I tried with \n, '\n' and \r\n but, in vain......
    Thanks for your time.
    Regards,

    You should never use "\n" directly.
    The line separator character is different on different operating systems.
    And putting quotes around it in your string will make absolutely no difference in the JSP.
    To find out what the line separator is you should use System.getProperty("line.separator");
    The JSPWriter and PrintWriter classes will automatically use this property with a println statement, so a println will always finish with a line separator.
    The issue here was that HTML by default ignores all whitespace.
    The solutions provided
    - use a <br> tag instead of a carriage return
    - use <pre> tags, which tells the browser not to ignore whitespace. That can be troublesome in JSP which generates a lot of extraneous carriage returns into the code.

  • 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.
