How to replace a line ina text file using java?
Hi ALL,
Does anybody know how to replace a line in a text file uisng java.use this thing:
http://doesthatevencompile.com/current-projects/code-sniplets/ASCIIFile.htm

read its contents, replace the text you need in the contents, set the contents back into the file.

What is the best way of replacing words in a text file ?
i want to read in a text file and when i come across a certain word, i want to change it to something else. Whats the best way to do this ?
If i read in a line at a time, how would i only replace one word and not the rest of the line ?
thanksthanks it works !!! But i wrote the contents to a new file.
How do i overwrite the same file ? I put the the input and output file as the same location but it overwrites the original file with a blank one.
i guess i have to write into another buffer and read all lines first before overwriting the file right ? how should i do that ?
also, i only want to overwrite the file ONLY if applies replaceAll method, otherwise if no replacing takes place i dont want to keep updating the file everytime. -
Replace/cut part of words from a text file.
Hello Hello everyone, I have a quick question. I have my text file that contains also words like ... let's say abc1, abc2 and so on, and I need to cut the c from the word, I need ab1, ab2.
Here is what I have started:
import java.util.*;
import java.io.*;
public class test
Vector<String> x = new Vector<String>();
public mergefiles() throws IOException
readAdd("test.txt");
write("testout.txt");
private void readAdd(String name) throws IOException
BufferedReader reader = new BufferedReader(new FileReader(name));
String line,all=new String();
while ((line = reader.readLine ()) != null)
all+=line+'\n';
reader.close ();
int posX=all.indexOf("X"); // x being like first word of the text file
if (all.length()-posX>0)
String between=all.substring(posX+3,all.length());
StringTokenizer st=new StringTokenizer(between," \n");
private void write(String name) throws IOException
BufferedWriter writer = new BufferedWriter(new FileWriter(name));
String s=new String();
if (x.size()>0)
s+="X"+'\n';
s+='\n';
writer.write(s);
writer.close();
public static void main(String[] args) throws IOException
new test();
}I am new to Java and I would really appreciate if you would be patient with me.
Thank you!I have tried in readAdd method something like:
int posX=all.indexOf("X"); // x being like first word of the text file
if (all.length()-posX>0)
string.replace("ab1","abc1");
} but still doesn't work, and this is not a really good ideea, in case that I have to replace 1000 of abci ...I should use a for in my write method:
String[] s=new String[2];
for(int i=0;i<word.length;i++)
BufferedWriter writer = new BufferedWriter(new FileWriter(testout.substring(0, testout.lastIndexOf("."))+(i+1)+".txt"));
writer.write(s);
writer.close();
But I not really sure if this is ok! Right now nothing is working
Thanks -

How to convert a HTML files into a text file using Java
Hi guys...!
I was wondering if there is a way to convert a HTML file into a text file using java programing language. Likewise I would also like to know if there is a way to convert any type of file (excel, power point, and word) into text using java.
By the way, I really appreciated the help that you guys gave me on my previous topic on how to extract tests from a pdf file.
Thank you....HTML files are already text files. What do you mean you want to convert them?
I think if you search the web, you can find things for converting those MS Office files to text (or extracting text from them, as I assume you mean). -

example
String str = (your text readed from file A)
StringTokinzed token = new StringTokinzed(str);
while (token.hasMoreTokens()) {
String word = token.nextToken()
Integer i = (Integer) hashmap.get(word);
if (i==null) {
i = new Integer(1);

How to print a text file using Java
How can I print a text file using Java without converting the output to an image format. Is there anyway I can send the characters in the text file as it is for a print job? I did get a listing doing this ... but that converted the text to an image format before printing....
THanks,.Hi I had to write a print api from scratch, and I did not convert the output to image. Go and read up on the following code. I know there is a Tutorial on Sun about the differant sections of the snippet.
private void printReport()
Frame tempFrame = new Frame(getName());
PrintJob printerJob = Toolkit.getDefaultToolkit().getPrintJob(tempFrame, "Liesltext", null);
Graphics g = printerJob.getGraphics();
//I wrote the method below for calculations
printBasics(g);
g.dispose();
printerJob.end();
}This alone wont print it you have to do all the calculations in the printBasics method. And as I said I wrote this from scratch and all I did was research first the tutorial and the white papers

How to get the source code of an HTML page in Text file Through java?
How to get the source code of an HTML page in Text file Through java?
I am coding an application.one module of that application is given below:
The first part of the application is to connect our application to the existing HTML form.
This module would make a connection with the HTML page. The HTML page contains the coding for the Form with various elements. The form may be a simple form with one or two fields or a complex one like the form for registering for a new Bank Account or new email account.
The module will first connect through the HTML page and will fetch the HTML code into a Text File so that the code can be further processed.
Could any body provide coding hint for thatYou're welcome. How about awarding them duke stars?

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-Talkpublic 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.
cheers

Reading words from a text file
I have written code to store words in a text file. they appear in the text file as shown below.
word1
word2
word3
etc.
I want to read each word individually and store them in an array. Im trying to do it using a BufferedReader but it doesn't seem to work. The code for reading the words is shown below. Any suggestions would be appreciated.
try
FileReader reader = new FileReader("words.txt");
BufferedReader bReader = new BufferedReader(reader);
ArrayList words = new ArrayList();
String line;
while((line = bReader.readLine()) != null)
line = bReader.readLine();
words.add(line);
bReader.close();
catch (Exception e)
System.err.println ("Error writing to file");
}I think your code is wrong, because it Read two time from file,
your code like....
while((line = bReader.readLine()) != null)
line = bReader.readLine();
words.add(line);
you have to change the above code like
while((line = bReader.readLine()) != null)
words.add(line);
NOW ITS WORKING FINE,........... -
