Read a file using java

I have a file that is tooooo large which is 70,000 lines long
I want to search for a specific line of the file. All I have with me is some part of the line of the file.
For example : My each line has data in the following form. Information I have with me is 1996CHEV 1GN&T13 to search for following line
1996CHEVBLAZER UTIL 4X41GN&T13W&T 19980101G1419970101K17 L1893HS
Please help

sorry for the unrelated nitpick, but please avoid unnecessary abbreviations in your posts here. I recommend this for several reasons:
1) Programming is an exercise in precision. When you communicate here (or anywhere) about programming issues and questions, you want this communication to be as clear as possible to avoid any chance for ambiguity. I'd say at least half the answers here are requests for clarification. Let's avoid that.
2) For many here, English is not their first (or second or third) language. It's hard enough for them to understand what people are posting here much less if it's couched in obscure and non-standard abbreviations.
3) Extra letters don't cost anything here, so you might as well use them.
4) It makes the poster seem a bit immature and thus for some not worthy of help.

Read Text file using Java Script

Hi,
I am trying to read a text file using Java Script within the webroot of MII as .HTML file. I have provided the path as below but where I am not able to open the file. Any clue to provide the relative path or any changes required on the below path ?
var FileOpener = new ActiveXObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject");
var FilePointer = FileOpener.OpenTextFile("E:\\usr\\sap\\MID\\J00\\j2ee\\cluster\\apps\\sap.com\\xapps~xmii~ear\\servlet_jsp\\XMII\\root\\CM\\OCTAL\\TestTV\\Test.txt", 1, true);

The Error Log shows as :

Hi Mohamed,
I tried above code after importing JQuery Library through script Tag. It worked for me . Pls check.
Note : You can place Jquery1.xx.xx.js file in the same folder where you saved this IRPT/HTML file.

How to read SGML files using Java

I've got a text categorisation test collection called Reuters-21578 for my Information Retrieval project. It is distributed in 22 files. Each of the first 21 files (reut2-000.sgm through reut2-020.sgm) contains 1000 documents, while the last (reut2-021.sgm) contains 578 documents. The files are in SGML format. Each of the 22 files begins with a document type declaration line:
<!DOCTYPE lewis SYSTEM "lewis.dtd"> The DTD file lewis.dtd is included in the distribution. Following the document type declaration line are individual Reuters articles marked up with SGML tags.
My questions is how to write a java program to read those 21578 documents or transform them into 21578 seperated text files.

I guess I missed something. What is Renes link?. The
parser stuff isn't really what I'm looking for. I'm
a new at and just learning java and I just want to
know the easiest way to read a SGML file. Should I
use a buffered Reader with a Pushback Input Stream?Hang on.....you want to just read the file without intelligently extracting the SGML data contained within and so have no need of a parser?
Well, in that case, its just text.....so just use BufferedReader or whatever to read the text data. If I understand you correctly, all you really wanted to ask was "how do I read a text file?"

Read text file using Java(streamTokenizer)

Hi, all,
I am lost when trying to read data from a text file to a Java prgram. The text file looks like the following:
106,62,2322,8159,1
106,62,3658,8333,1
106,62,4215,8334,2
Each number is seperated by "," and each line representing one row of data. I was thinking about using streamTokenizer to read the data into a multi-dimentional array. Since I am new to Java and just read something about the streamTokenizer from book, I would like to get some help from someone who is more experienced with that.
Thanks for your help!
Kevin

Hi Kevin,
try this:
import java.io.BufferedReader;
import java.io.FileReader;
import java.io.IOException;
import java.util.ArrayList;
import java.util.List;
import java.util.StringTokenizer;
public class Answer {
        public static void main(String[] args) {
        List data = new ArrayList();
        try {
            BufferedReader in = new BufferedReader(new FileReader("...your text file ..."));
            String line;
            // reading the file line by line
            while ((line = in.readLine()) != null) {
                // splitting the line into token
                StringTokenizer st = new StringTokenizer(line, ",");
                List row = new ArrayList();
                while (st.hasMoreTokens()) {
                    row.add(new Integer(st.nextToken()));
                data.add(row); // adding the row of data
            in.close();
        } catch (IOException e) {
            e.printStackTrace();
        // test result
        System.out.println(data);
}I don't like to use arrays, because when I start reading the file, I don't know yet, how many rows of data it is containing. Therefore a java.util.List is much more convenient (you don't have to initialize). Your result is now a java.util.List containing elements of java.util.List containig elements of Integer.

How to read a text file using Java

Guys,
Good day!
Please help me how to read a text file using Java and create/convert that text file into XML.
Thanks and God Bless.
Regards,
I-Talk

     public void fileRead(){
             File aFile =new File("myFile.txt");
         BufferedReader input = null;
         try {
           input = new BufferedReader( new FileReader(aFile) );
           String line = null;
           while (( line = input.readLine()) != null){
         catch (FileNotFoundException ex) {
           ex.printStackTrace();
         catch (IOException ex){
           ex.printStackTrace();
     }This code is to read a text file. But there is no such thing that will convert your text file to xml file. You have to have a defined XML format. Then you can read your data from text files and insert them inside your xml text. Or you may like to read xml tags from text files and insert your own data. The file format of .txt and .xml is far too different.

Code for reading the and placing the file using java webservice

Hi All,
Can anybody can guide me on how to read a file and place the file using java.
Let me know if any code is available which has been completed using java.
Regards,
Rahul

Hi,
The "square" symbol that you are referring to is probably a CRLF (Carriage Return - Life Feed) Control Character.
This is more commonly known as a "Enter" at the end of a line / sentence.
To clean this character from strings in Java, please use:
String patternStr = "(?m)$^|[\\r\\n]+\\z";
String replaceStr = " ";
Pattern pattern = Pattern.compile(patternStr);
Matcher matcher = pattern.matcher(inputStr);
return matcher.replaceAll(replaceStr);
Hope that helps.
Thanks.
