Recording paragraph to a text file

mmm hello everyone, this is HRaito, just started learning java and quite confused at the same time.
With java i understand how to write a line or a text to a textfile, but how do i write several lines of text(or a paragraph) to the textfile? Do i have to create an array so that after time the user presses enter, it creates a new string object to read the input? If so, how on earth do i create the new object. Plz help.
FileWriter fw = new FileWriter(-File Name-);
PrintWriter output = new PrintWriter(fw);
Scanner kb = new Scanner(System.in);
String choice = kb.nextLine();
output.print(choice);
output.close();
fw.close();

I want the program to record several lines of text, not just one.
So if i type the following in the program, ::
Windows is no good
Caramels are good for you
Sugar is my one true love
in the textfile, the input shoud be recorded exactly in the format it was typed::
Windows is no good
Caramels are good for you
Sugar is my one true love
the problem is, my program only records one line maximum

Load utility drop load record of tab delimited text file

use the load utility to import text delimited UTF8 file, the result show all record load successed. However, count row in the load table show some record missed in loading.
Reload the missing record is success. Are there any parameter like buffer size can be set inorder to load all record in one time?

Recording data at particular iterations and writing to text file

Hi all,
this is my first time posting on the NI boards. I'm running into a couple problems I can't seem to figure out how to fix.
I'm collecting data using a LabJack U3-HV daq. I've taken one of the out-of-the-box streaming functions that comes with the LabJack and modified it for my purposes. I am attempting to simply save the recorded data to a text file in columns, one for each of my 4 analog strain gauge inputs, and one for time. For some reason when the 'write to measurement file.vi' executes it is puts everything in rows, and the data is unintelligible.
The 2nd issue I am facing, which is not currently visible in my vi, is that I am running my test for 60,000 cycles, which generates a ton of data. I'm measuring creep/fatigue with my strain gages so I don't need data for every cycle, probably for the first 1000, then the 2k, 4k, 6k, 8k, 10k, 20k, etc. More of an exponential curve. I tried using some max/min functions and then matching the 'write to measurement file.vi' with a case structure that only permitted it to write for particular iterations, but can't seem to get it to work.
Thanks in advance for any help!

Hey carfreak,
I've attached a screenshot that shows three different ways of trying to keep track of incrementing data and/or time in a while loop. The top loop just shows a program that demonstrates how shift registers can be used to transfer data between loops. This code just writes the iteration value to the array using the Build Array function.
The first loop counts iterations in an extremely round-about way... the second shows that really you can just build the array directly using the iteration count (the blue "i" in the while loop is just an iteration counter).
The final loop shows how you can use a time stamp to actually keep track of the relative time when a loop executes.
Please note that these three should not actually be implemented together in one VI. I just built them in one BD for simplicity's sake for the screenshot. As described above, the producer-consumer architecture should be used when running parallel loops.
Does that answer your question?

Close the file.
all work except insert a new line
Why !!!
it was Working fine in 6i, but now in 10g and Webutil is not working
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();
}

Re: Table to flat text file

Yuo are writing to the file without adding any field delimiters or record seperators so your text file endup as a long line of text which is meaningless

File adapter-How to set line break in text file-split record into two lines

Dear Guru's,
I have to solve following problem with XML (with mulitiple records) to TEXT file scenario using file adapter. I have to output for ever ONE data record in XML always two identical lines in text file. Second line should have a little bit different mapping in few fields like date,... So I did duplicate fileds in my output structure in mapping and need to know how to set line break in the middle and see half of structure in first line and next structure half in second line
My output structure in mapping is:
CASHFLOW
- INTERFACE
- GESELLSCHAFT
- ANWENDUNG
- PRODUKT
- VERTRAG
- BETRAG
- WAEHRUNG
- DIRECTION
- BEWEGUNGSTYP
- FAELLIGKEIT
- ZINSFESTSTELLUNG
- ZAHLUNGSTAG
- RENDITE
- INTERFACE2
- GESELLSCHAFT2
- ANWENDUNG2
- PRODUKT2
- VERTRAG2
- BETRAG2
- WAEHRUNG2
- DIRECTION2
- BEWEGUNGSTYP2
- FAELLIGKEIT2
- ZINSFESTSTELLUNG2
- ZAHLUNGSTAG2
- RENDITE2
Question is how can I set on receiving file adapter in Content Conversion Parameters that fields from first structure half INTERFACE...RENDITE should be outputed in one line and fields from second half of structure INTERFACE2...RENDITE2 should start on second line in final text file.
I'm getting at the moment one line only and I need to know how can set line break so that second line starting with INTERFACE2(CA)...RENDITE2 will start in new line.
CA,"0100","7","512",20090127010001,-12454762586.6800,"EUR",2,12,2009-01-28,2009-01-27,2009-01-28,"0.0000000",CA,"0100","7","512",20090127010001,-12454762586.6800,"EUR",1,10,2009-01-27,2009-01-27,2009-01-27,"0.0000000"
This should be final output:
CA,"0100","7","512",20090127010001,-12454762586.6800,"EUR",2,12,2009-01-28,2009-01-27,2009-01-28,"0.0000000"
CA,"0100","7","512",20090127010001,-12454762586.6800,"EUR",1,10,2009-01-27,2009-01-27,2009-01-27,"0.0000000"
My file adapter settings:
RecordsetStructure=CASHFLOW
CASHFLOW.fieldNames=INTERFACE,GESELLSCHAFT,ANWENDUNG,PRODUKT,VERTRAG,BETRAG,WAEHRUNG,DIRECTION,BEWEGUNGSTYP,FAELLIGKEIT,ZINSFESTSTELLUNG,ZAHLUNGSTAG,RENDITE
CASHFLOW.fieldSeparator=,
CASHFLOW.endSeparator='nl'
CASHFLOW.fieldNames=INTERFACE2,GESELLSCHAFT2,ANWENDUNG2,PRODUKT2,VERTRAG2,BETRAG2,WAEHRUNG2,DIRECTION2,BEWEGUNGSTYP2,FAELLIGKEIT2,ZINSFESTSTELLUNG2,ZAHLUNGSTAG2,RENDITE2
CASHFLOW.fieldSeparator=,
It wont help if I add two identical structures in mapping because in output i would see for multiple entries section with first lines only and after that section with second lines only. And CASHFLOW is one part of more complex mapping ...
(This is final output structure RecordsetStructure=HEADER,CASHFLOW,CONDITION,REFERENCE,CONTRACT - more sections with different data and all these should have duplicate lines at the end)
Thanks a lot for any help
Cheers
Marian

Hi Ivan,
right, I did test just for sure.
Putting constant 'nl' into field CASHFLOW-INTERFACE1 didnt help - still getting one line instead two lines.
CA ,"0100" ,"7" ,"512" ,20090127GTP101 ,-12454762586.6800 ,"EUR" ,2 ,12 ,2009-01-28 ,2009-01-27 ,2009-01-28 ,"0.0000000" ,'nl' ,"GTP1" ,"7" ,"512" ,20090127GTP101 ,-12454762586.6800 ,"EUR" ,1 ,10 ,2009-01-27 ,2009-01-27 ,2009-01-27 ,"0.0000000"
So there is still question. Is there any way (mapping,...) how to output always 2 lines in text file for one record in XML. It always does 1 record in mapping structure = 1 line but we need 2 lines ...
Example:
Input: 4 records in XML
Output: 8 lines in final text file ...
Thanks to you all guys

How do I add multiple text block records from text file?

The data manager documentation (page 151) for MDM 5.5 SP3 indicates that one or more new text blocks can be added to the Text Blocks object table from files. It is noted that the files must be plain text files.
I use notepad and create a text file with two lines as follows:
Test 1
Test 2
When I try to add the text blocks following documentation mentioned above, it only adds one record for the Data Group I have chosen and the record contains the entry "Test 1" from the first line in the text file.
How can I add multiple records to the data group from a file?

From my testing it appears that you need to have one text file per text block record in Data Manager.
I wrote VBA macro to so that I could input my text blocks into an Excel spreadsheet and then the macro will take the contents of each cell in a highlighted column and create one text file per cell.
Then using Data manager, I can select all of the text files at once and it will import them, creating one record per text file.

How to update and delete records in a text file?

Hi,
I had a text file in which contains records line by line with ',' as delimiter as I use stringtokenizer and vector to read the data.
The format in the text file likes: Name, Sex, Age.
I want to add 2 functions:
(1) update the record by name, sex or age;
(2) delete the whole line of record;
Do I need to open a temp text file to do it?
And, what is the algorithm can be suggested?
For both of them, I want to firstly read the total line numbers. Then, the line number + Name, Sex, Age will be displayed on the console window. User can choose which line of record to update or delete.
Or, user can search name in order to do that.
But, what is the backend algorithm to handle it? If I have 10 lines of record, I want to delete 7th line, the 7th line of the text file will be blanked. How can I move 8th, 9th and 10th lines of records up by one line in order to fill the blank line?
Do I need to copy the first 6 lines to a temp text file and copy the last 3 lines of records to the same temp file first? and then copy all the content of that temp file back to the original text file? If so, how can I copy the same format of the original file (with '\n') to the temp file? I need the same data structure likes Name, Sex, Age.
However, when I add records, I need to append the text in the original text file, not override it's current content.
Any advice?
Thanks

If your file is not designed to be amazingly large, then you don't need to use a temporary file -- you can just read the data into memory and manipulate it there. (Like, into a Document object or something.)
But if you are dealing with really large files, you might want to consider using a database back end instead of a text file, which is a completely different approach I know but... well, that's why databases were invented.

How to trigger data recording to a text file for multiple channels for a certain voltage threshold?

I am working with 6 channels, from each of which I am obtaining voltage values ranging from 0.6-6 V. I am using the DAQ Assistant to acquire and write the data to a text file. However, I only want the data to be written to the text file when the difference in voltage (DeltaV) from one data point to another is greater than or equal to 0.04 V. I am acquiring the data at a sampling rate of 64 Hz. Any ideas on how to accomplish this? I have attached my current VI.

Your code does not do what you describe above..
I just want to make sure I understand your request...
Let's say you have the following signal:
0.00
0.01
0.00
0.03
0.02
0.01
0.03
0.04
0.07
0.05
0.08
0.03 < delta greater than 0.04, so start recording
0.11
0.21
0.45
0.93
2.87
5.85
5.86 < delta less than 0.04, so stop recording
5.87
5.89
6.00 < delta greater than 0.04, so start recording
5.85
5.86 < delta less than 0.04, so stop recording
etc..
Is the above what you are describing?
Right now, your code does this:
0.00
0.01
0.00
0.03
0.02
0.01
0.03
0.04
0.07
0.05
0.08
0.03
0.11
0.21
0.45
0.93
2.87 < threshold greater than 1 so reset timer
5.85 < threshold greater than 1 so reset timer
5.86 < threshold greater than 1 so reset timer
5.87 < threshold greater than 1 so reset timer
5.89 < threshold greater than 1 so reset timer
6.00 < threshold greater than 1 so reset timer
5.85 < threshold greater than 1 so reset timer
5.86 < threshold greater than 1 so reset timer
4.35 < threshold greater than 1 so reset timer
2.21 < threshold greater than 1 so reset timer
1.09 < threshold greater than 1 so reset timer
0.98
However, you did not provide a set start time to the Elapse Time (I never use Express VI's so I'm not sure what will happen..) However, something does not appear correct with the logic. I'd have to check.

Writing Records in a Text File to Specific Columns in the Text File

Help Please! I am a noooooooooobbbbbb!
I have searched this forum looking for a procedure that will write records from my database into certain col (positions) in a text file. Example:
1234 TONY TEST 84889922 Y 34 TORCHCOMP 34
5678 BOB JOHNS 43534534 N 56 SAFDWEERE 65
I am thinking I would like to setup variaables like:
Consumer_ID = Consumer(position 1,5)
Name = name(position 10,20)
Invoice_No = Invoice(position 30,40)
etc.
Any input will be greatly appreciated
Thank You

Hi,
That's a formatting issue.
Formatting is best done in the front end. For example, using SQL*Plus:
COLUMN     consumer_id     FORMAT 9999     HEADING     c_id
COLUMN     filler_6_9     FORMAT A4     HEADING     " "
COLUMN     name          FORMAT A11
COLUMN     filler_21_29     FORMAT A9     HEADING     " "
COLUMN     invoice_no     FORMAT 9999999999
SET     COLSEP          ""
SET     PAGESIZE     9999
SPOOL     x.dat
SELECT     consumer_id
,     ' '          AS filler_6_9
,     name
,     ' '          AS filler_21_29
,     invoice_no
FROM     table_x;
SPOOL     OFFIf you have to do it in the back end, use functions like TO_CHAR and RPAD to make each part exactly the right length, then concatenate them all into one big string:
SET     PAGESIZE     0
SPOOL     x.dat
SELECT     TO_CHAR ( consumer_id
          , 'fm99999'
          )          -- 1-5
||     '    '               -- 6-9
||     RPAD ( name
          , 11
          )               -- 10-20
||     '         '          -- 21-29
||     TO_CHAR ( invoice_no
          , 'fm9999999999'
          )          -- 30-40
FROM     table_x;

Whatever the exception, including duplication import occurs during import and recorded in a text file. What are the fields that determine the duplicity? How I can I can change those?

You will be returned anything that is in the option's value parameter. What is displayed in the dropdown and what is put in the value attribute do NOT need to be the same, so maybe you should start there.

How can I copy records from a Table to a ASCII/ Text file.?

Hi
Can you help me with code for copying the records from an oracle table to a Text file,? I like to copy the 1200 records from a 7 field table to a .txt file and print out the out put.
earliest reply is deeply appreciated.

Saj

All I would do is, in SQL*Plus, spool your output to a file and change the pagesize to however many lines you want before the next header break.
For example:
SET PAGESIZE 79
SPOOL OUTPUT.TXT
Would create an output file called OUTPUT.TXT with header rows produced after every 79 rows of data.

Spooling to Text File - 30 million records - Getting Out of Memory Error

Hi All,
I have an extremely large oracle table that I need to spool to a .txt file. The table has approximately 30 million records. I'm using Toad For Oracle version 10.5 and I'm on Oracle 10g. I've tried running the following spool command a few times and it keeps crashing...I'm getting a "Out of Memory" error in my Toad window when I execute it as a script. Here's the code:
Spool on
set heading off
SET PAGESIZE 0
SET TRIMSPOOL ON
SET LINESIZE 100
set feedback off
set echo off
set termout off
Spool "C:\spooledtext.txt"
select
column1
from test_table
order by
column2,
column1
Spool off;
An ideas as to how I can get this query to spool to a text file without crashing and running out of memory?
Thanks

use sqlplus.
Or select smaller chunks and use copy to concat them afterwards.

Counting records in text file using utl_file

Hi
i have an input file as below
0010 asp
0020 fdp
0030 hfg
0030 hfg
0040 fdh
0050 dfh
0010 sjh
0020 hjd
0030 feh
0030 jhj
0030 seb
0040 jnj
0050 njj
each group starts with 0010 & ends with 0050.
I have to count the no. of 0030 records in each group.
Here my output should be
1~2
2~3
mean in the 1st group the number of records starting with 0030 is 2 & that in 2nd group is 3
Please give a solution to count them..

Hi,
Below example using External Table Feature.
create a directory on the server where your database is installed and copy your data file(text file) in that directory. In the below example Oracle directory name is "text_file" and the physical directory on the server is "D:\TEXT_FILE\". The file name of data file is "data.txt".
create directory text_file as 'D:\TEXT_FILE\';
DROP TABLE load_a;
CREATE TABLE load_a
(a1 varchar2(200))
ORGANIZATION EXTERNAL
(TYPE ORACLE_LOADER
DEFAULT DIRECTORY text_file
ACCESS PARAMETERS
(FIELDS TERMINATED BY ','
LOCATION ('data.txt')
select * from load_a;
now you can use
select id||'~'||ctr from
(select substr(a1, 3, 1) id, count(*) ctr from load_a group by substr(a1, 3, 1));
