06/23/2009,CompanyName,4 (Record count includes number of records + Header Record i.e 3+1=4)
so i just want to know how to populate the record count, i have 3 differient nodes with same fields where in based on some condition any one of the nodes will execute how to count the records..

What is the smallest data structure record in a .TXT file record to be recognized as an Apple Address Book "Data Card"?

Hello! This is my first time in this discussion group. The question posed is the subject line itself:
What is the smallest data structure record in a .TXT file record to be recognized as an Apple Address Book "Data Card"?
I'm lazy! As a math instructor with 40+ students per class per semester (pCpS), I would rather not have to create 40 data cards pCpS by hand, only to expunge that info at semester's end. My college's IS department can easily supply me with First name, Last name, and eMail address info, along with a myriad of other fields. I can manipulate those data on my end to create the necessary .TXT file, but I don't know the essential structure of that file.
Can you help me?
Thank you in advance.
Bill

Hello Bill, & welcome aboard!
No idea what pCpS is, sorry.
To import a text file into Address Book, it needs to be a comma delimited .csv file, like...

Find Record count in a file.

Hi,
Is it possible to find the total no. of records (lines) in a file?
With External Table: and using select count(*) on that external table.
But here, we will only get the rows which are valid. Non Valid records will go to the bad file.
Another ways is: Reading the entire file using utl_file.get_line and then incrementing a counter.
But, we need to read through the whole file just to get the count.
Is there any better way of doing this?
Any suggestions?
( I accept sql/plsql is for db related things and not to handle OS related tasks. But I don't like writing a seperate shell script for this small thing because, I just moved every thing like data load, emailing etc in to plsql from unix and proc :) )
Version:
Oracle Database 10g Enterprise Edition Release 10.2.0.1.0 - 64bi
PL/SQL Release 10.2.0.1.0 - Production
Unfortunately No Java is Installed
Thanks in advance,
Pradeep.

1 alternative...
You could set up a dummy external table pointing to the file that just has a single column of varchar2 with no delimiters so it reads a line at a time, and won't get any bad rows, then do a count(*) on that table.

Records count in Receiver File Adapter

Hi All,
I have a scenario IODC to File. The requirement is to get the total record count in the Trailer record of the Target File .Please help.
Regards,
Kevin

Hello,
The requirement is to get the total record count in the Trailer record of the Target File
In your XML, decide which IDOC field you get your records from and then do a similar mapping
IDOC field -> removeContext -> count -> TrailerRecordfield
Hope this helps,

Reading Last line(record) from a txt file ina java

Hi,
I want to retrive the last line from a txt file.Can anybody help me??
Thanx in advance

In order to read the last line you must read all the lines before it. To read lines you can use the BufferedReader and LineNumberReader classes.
Here's an example of how to read lines of text from a file:

How do i Sort my records in a txt file.

Hi , i am doing a ranking system that is rank by the user number of attempts to finish the game .
Player are ranked best as able finish the game with LEAST amount of attempts.
This is the record that i have in my *.txt based on
(win,NumberOfAttempts,playerName)
win,4,hehehe
win,2,hahaha
win,3,jjjjjjj
win,6,kkkk
win,3,mmmnnn
What sort method can i use to sort the player base on NumberOfAttempts (2nd values of each line)
I saw something like import java.ultis.collections which got a sorting but i dont know how to use it..
anyone can introduce me the best and easy sort that i can use for my ranking? Thanks
If possible give me a example.
Sorry for the troubles and thanks for the help.

It's static class 'Arrays', not array. Check the API doco.
sort
public static void sort(Object[] a)
    Sorts the specified array of objects into ascending order, according to the
natural ordering of its elements. All elements in the array must implement
the Comparable interface. Furthermore, all elements in the array must be
mutually comparable (that is, e1.compareTo(e2) must not throw a
ClassCastException for any elements e1 and e2 in the array).
    This sort is guaranteed to be stable: equal elements will not be reordered
as a result of the sort.
    The sorting algorithm is a modified mergesort (in which the merge is
omitted if the highest element in the low sublist is less than the lowest
element in the high sublist). This algorithm offers guaranteed n*log(n)
performance.
    Parameters:
        a - the array to be sorted
    Throws:
        ClassCastException - if the array contains elements that are not
mutually comparable (for example, strings and integers).

SQL Loader problem while loading records from txt file to database table.

I am getting following error while loading records from flat txt file into database table with the help of 'sqlldr' command. I have executed catldr.sql from RDBMS folder but it is still showing same error. I am setting DIRECT = TRUE while issuing sqlldr command. If I try with DIRECT = FALSE then it works fine. Database is Oracle 8i.

How to make this faster?? read millions of record from txt file

Hi there,
I got an issue. There is a txt file contains 2 million records, I also got another file contains over 10000 numbers. Now, I need to compare this 10000 numbers with that 2 million records if any records contains a number which belongs to 10000 number set, i retrieve this record and keep it. later on, when i finish the comparison i'll write all the result records into a txt file.
What kind of data structure shall i use to keep the records and numbers? how to make the comparison quicker? Any idea will do!
Thanks!

if i were to do it, i will insert bout the records into the db. then do an sql statement on the two tables to get the results. Then get the rs and output it to another text file.
just my opinion. not sure if this is faster.

Generate target/out file with header record as Record Count ?

Hi Kareem, Please try the below approach. Pipeline 1: Load actual data(without header with record count) from source to target. Let say your file name is intermediate1.dat Pipeline 2: Take the target from pipeline 1 as source and create the header with count of source file using an aggregator. The filename of target for pipeline 2 will be your final file(header and detail data). Pipeline 3: Take the target of pipeline 1 again and do 1-to-1 load to the target file of second pipeline. In session properties, dont forget to tick the check box append if exists for the third pipeline target. There may be other simple approaches also. If you have no time in hand try the above approach. Let me know if you find any issues. Thanks,Deeshan.

Record Count of Lines in the Reciever Txt file

Hi,
I am Working with File to Idoc Scenarion. Where I have field "Record Count in the reciever. Where the total number of lines in the reciever file has to mapped with the field and the file to be recieved to the destination.
eg:Each Idoc that we receive, 2 lines are written out, one starts with BATHDR, the other is SECPTY.
There is also then 1 extra line, the header line. I looked at a bunch of iFiles, and it seems to be if we knew the total # of idocs for a given payment run, the total # of lines we would output is:
( ( #ofIDOCS * 2) + 1).
With this observation can you advise on the action to be taken for the out put.

Need a relative sequence (count of record) in an input file in ESB input fi

I am using ESB to pick up text files and pass them to a stored procedure. I have multiple variable length records in the file. I pass each record to the
output file adapter, along with the input filename. I would also like to get a relative record number for each record within the file. I use an xsd file
to convert the input to XML. The entire file is at the root level, each record is an element. Is there a way to get a relative count of each element?
Here is the xsd file:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?>
<xsd:schema xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema"
xmlns:nxsd="http://xmlns.oracle.com/pcbpel/nxsd"
targetNamespace="http://TargetNamespace.com/Filein"
xmlns:tns="http://TargetNamespace.com/Filein"
elementFormDefault="qualified"
attributeFormDefault="unqualified" nxsd:encoding="ASCII" nxsd:stream="chars" nxsd:version="NXSD">
<xsd:element name="Root-Element">
<xsd:complexType>
<xsd:sequence>
<xsd:element name="C1" minOccurs="1" maxOccurs="unbounded">
<xsd:complexType>
<xsd:sequence>
<xsd:element name="C1" type="xsd:string" nxsd:style="terminated" nxsd:terminatedBy="${eol}" nxsd:quotedBy=""">
</xsd:element>
</xsd:sequence>
</xsd:complexType>
</xsd:element>
</xsd:sequence>
</xsd:complexType>
</xsd:element>
</xsd:schema>


I need to map the relative record number to a field in the output.
Is there a function similar to the get filename that would return this value to me?
<xsl:value-of select='ehdr:getRequestHeader("/fhdr:InboundFileHeaderType/fhdr:fileName","fhdr=http://xmlns.oracle.com/pcbpel/adapter/file/;")'/>
I use this in the xsl file to get the file name .

does each record start with a new line? if it does a
simple wc -l can help you. If not, you can pre
process this XML file by first removing all the new
line characters using sed and then adding new line
characters after the end tag of the xml using sed and
finally doing a wc -l . this would be a simple shell
script. Not sure if you want to use Unix shell
scripting to achieve this.The sheer nature of XML means that it does not conform to any visual formatting. i.e. An xml file containing...
<employee><empno>3</empno></employee>
is identical in XML terms to...
<employee>
<empno>3</empno>
</employee>
which is also identical in XML terms to...
<employee>
<empno>
3
</empno>
</employee>
which is also identical in XML terms to...
<employee><empno>
3
</empno></employee>
etc.
You cannot rely on the number of CR's or CR/LF's in the file to count the records. Proper XML processing should be used for such a task.
