Table as tab separated columns in a file using Java

I want to design a general java procedure which will take a oracle table name as input and will store the fields of table separated by tabs in a file.
For this i need to have access to field names of tables as i have to store them as headings.
How to get field names as strings?
I know that this can better be created by using file package of oracle and writing a PL/SQL procedure, but it will store it on oracle server machine and i want the file to be on client.
Any suggestions?

In addition to having the data in the Oracle data dictionary, if you're writing a Java program you'll presumably be using JDBC which has a variety of MetaData classes that expose this sort of information.
If you're looking for speed, you might also search asktom.oracle.com for "SQL Unloader" which is a Pro*C program Tom Kyte wrote for this sort of thing.

  • MySQL DB file using java

    Is there a way of creating a mySQL database file using java, a file similar to MS Access file?

    I recall a software that save files in .mysql format.
    Didn't know how these files were generated, but I am
    sure of the extension.Well that's swell.
    There is no such file used by MySQL. Further MySQL databases are not contained in a file but in fact use several files and are tied directly to tables. For each table you will have two files, one with structure and one with the data. Then for each index you will have another file.
    That's for MyISAM tables anyway (a MySQL variant of ISAM). For other table engine types it varies but multiple files per table is a common thread.
    The file you are talking about most likely contains SQL queries and is a SQL batch program for creating and populating a database.
    Anyway on to trying to actually resolve your issue. Creating ISAM files from scratch is a no-go to create a database. You can of course always connect to the database engine and issue queries like "CREATE DATABASE" or "CREATE TABLE"
    What is the actual problem you are trying to solve here?

  • How to create and edit a .ini file using java

    Hi All...
    Pls help me in creating and editing an .ini file using java...
    thanks in advance
    Regards,
    sathya

    Let's assume the ini file is a mapping type storage (key=value) so lets use Properties object. (works with java 1.4 & up)
    import java.io.File;
    import java.io.FileInputStream;
    import java.io.FileOutputStream;
    import java.io.IOException;
    import java.util.Properties;
    public class Test {
         private static Properties props;
         public static void main(String[] args) throws IOException {
              File file = new File("test.ini");//This is out ini file
              props = new Properties();//Create the properties object
              read(file);//Read the ini file
              //Once we've populated the Properties object. set/add a property using the setProperty() method.
              props.setProperty("testing", "value");
              write(file);//Write to ini file
         public static void read(File file) throws IOException {
              FileInputStream fis = new FileInputStream(file);//Create a FileInputStream
              props.load(fis);//load the ini to the Properties file
              fis.close();//close
         public static void write(File file) throws IOException {
              FileOutputStream fos = new FileOutputStream(file);//Create a FileOutputStream
              props.store(fos, "");//write the Properties object values to our ini file
              fos.close();//close
    }

  • 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 do i search for a string in a txt file using java??

    How do i search for a string in a txt file using java??
    could you please help thanks
    J

    Regular expressinos work just fine, especially when
    searching for patterns. But they seem to be impying
    it's a specific group of characters they're looking
    for, and indexOf() is much faster than a regex.If he's reading from a file, the I/O time will likely swamp any performance hit that regex introduces. I think contains() (or indexOf() if he's not on 5.0 yet) is preferable to regex just because it's simpler. (And in the case of contains(), the name makes for a very clear, direct mapping between your intent and the code that realizes it.)

  • 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).

         }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.

    outf.flush();

    Hi,
    when I look in the JDK1.4.2 specification I don't see any write method in the Document interface.
    However, your solution is the Transformer class. There you transform your DOM tree into any output you need. Your code sould look something like this:     TransformerFactory tf = TransformerFactory.newInstance();
         // set all necessary features for your transformer -> see OutputKeys
         Transformer t = tf.newTransformer();
         t.transform(new DOMSource(xmlDoc), new StreamResult(file));Then you have your XML file stored in the file system.
    Hope it helps.
