Taking input in a string

How do I get input from the user in the form of a String in
a simple non-Applet java program?

Hi! You can do this:
import java.io.*;
... <code> ...
FileInputStream fis = new FileInputStream(MyFilePath);
BufferedReader br = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(fis));
System.out.println("Enter some text:");
String text = br.readLine();
System.out.println("You entered: "+text);
... <code> ...I use FileInputStreams and BufferedReaders a LOT, and I usually use those variable names as well. :-)

X201 Keyboard not taking inputs

Running Windows 7 x64 Enterprise on a X201 Core i7 620M laptop with 8 GB of RAM. All installed by Lenovo.
I haven't been able to pinpoint the cause, but at random intervals the keyboard will stop taking inputs through Windows operating system. Pressing the Fn key and the appropriate Function key will activate said function, however the keyboard itself for anything else will not take input.
I have had no issues when an external keyboard is plugged in, but when using the Lenovo ThinkPad keyboard itself, it happens every so often without warning or trace in the error logs. I've experienced this across other W510 and T410 models as well.
All patches from TVSU were installed prior to Windows Update.
Any thoughts on where to point to? It's happened three times this evening while not plugged in to a power outlet, however for the past week performance has been solid with no issues.
Wondering if anyone else has this issue? Am I missing a driver?

Oddly if I plug in a USB keyboard, I'm able to type using the USB keyboard, but the keyboard within the laptop is effectively dead (though it will take Fn key combinations and work in a sub operating / BIOS level for things like PGP disk / TrueCrypt).
There are no errors spawned throughout the error logs - I looked through about everything.
I've gone in and changed the USB Selective Suspend setting in power settings to be disabled to see if this perhaps is the issue.
This is happening across Windows 7 x64 Enterprise. No real rhyme or reason to what is triggering it, but it's across all ThinkPad platforms - really starting to get frustrated as it's improbable that it's hardware.

How do I tell a variant input that a string is coming in?

I'm just learning how to use LabVIEW, so my apologies if this is a simple/stupid question.
I'm trying a variant on a DataSocket Read VI that was supplied with LabVIEW (I'm running version 7.1). I've got the "data" output line tied into a string. The "type (Variant)" input is connected to a 1-D array of unsigned bytes. There is an error in the wire connecting the "data" output to the string element, though:
You have connected two termnials of different types. The type of the source is 1-D array of unsigned byte [8-bit integer (0 to 255).
The type of the sink is string.
All well and good. How do I change the type of the source to string? When I right-click on the source and select "Replace", I can't see anything in there that looks like a string that isn't a constant... that is, a string type. I'd appreciate any insight you can lend me on this.

In the strings pallete you an find the Empty string constant or just a string constant . Wire that to the input (type) connector and it should produce the string you want.
Or you insert a byte array to string function in the broken wire.

André

Input parameter error: "string too long"

Hi,
SAP4Rails and SAPNWRFC run really well now, and I have not experienced a problem for a long, long time.
However, in an RFC I want to use, there is an import parameter (a plain value), which is of the type SYSUUID. The definition of this type says
<Format - Data Type "RAW" - No. characters "16"> and <Output Characteristics - Output Length "32">. Locally it works with 32 characters of input, but if I try to call the RFC through SAP4Rails, the error "RfcSetByte string too long" occurrs. Any idea, why this could be?
Thanks a lot in advance,
Bernd

This maybe a bug - if you can compile your own sapnwrfc can you try finding the following code:
    if (RSTRING(value)->len > max)
        rb_raise(rb_eRuntimeError, "RfcSetByte string too long: %sn", StringValueCStr(value));
and changing it to:
code]
    if (RSTRING(value)->len > max*2)
        rb_raise(rb_eRuntimeError, "RfcSetByte string too long: %s\n", StringValueCStr(value));
[/code]
and let me know what effect that has.
Cheers.

BizTalk Stored Proce-passing XML as one of the Input parameter and String as another parameter

I have a requirement in BizTalk that
- I will receive XML from Source and i need to submit this XML data and two other string parameters in SQL storeprocedure as a parameters and submit data
Ex: My_SP(myID Integer INPUT,myXML xml Input,mystring OUT)
Could you please help me how call storeprocedure and submit multiple parameters in BizTalk.

you can execute stored procedure by generating schemas from WCF-SQL Adapter.
for passing parameters you will have to do the mapping to the Generated schema for Stored proc.
I would suggest to do this in Message Assignment shape, there you can easily assign all the parameters.
Integer and String parameters can be assigned from normal variables and XML parameter can be inserted as suggested by Abhishek-
xmldoc=requestMsg;
varOuterstring=xmldoc.Outerxml.Tostring();
Please refer the below article.

About limit the input characters in string with xcontrol

Hi there,
I follow one example online to deveope a xcontrol for string input but limiting the input characters only to uppercase A to Z. I have the main code shown as follow
In the Key down event, I discard all input character with ascii code beyond [65, 90]. This seems to works but if I keep pressing down a forbidden key (e.g. %), it will show that key in the control. So how can I ban the input by long press on one key? Thanks.

Hi dragondriver,
and while you're editing your VI you should use an InRangeAndCoerce function to replace two comparisons and a boolean function!
You might even think about using "LexicalClass", but that requires additional comparisons too...

Can formula node take string input and output string?

I am wondering if the formula node can take string input variable and output string variable after calculation. otherwise I have to output integers and then use case structure to select different output strings, that is kind of redundant in coding.
ping

If you are just trying to read lines that have mixed formatting, you don't need any script nodes.
Can you attach a tpyical flne and a description of the desired read operation so we have a better idea what you are trying to do? Do all lines have the same overall format?

Multiple strings input to single string output

Dear all,
this program is needed for my demo simulation purposes, I'm creating several string inputs to show into a single string output updating (input strings are shown in each line). i attached the picture below, put 2 output strings w/c both doesn't meet my desired result:
1.) 1st string output - replace the old string w/ new string. what i need is to maintain also the previous strings. the new string will go to the next line.
2.) 2nd string output - although i got all the strings i needed, it only appears right after the while loop terminates, so i did not see the string inputs updating.
i'm using LV 8.5.1., any help is appreciated... posting your correct code will be more appreciated.
thanks in advance...

How to remove the last line input into a string indicator??

I am currently working on a program where the user has the ability to create a profile for one of our lab machines to run. When the user selects what parameters they would like, a string indicator shows the user the last input they set followed by a comma. For example, if the user selects which profile they want, and the times they would like to set, the following string would be displayed:
As you can see in the picture above, the profile is updated in the string indicator after every set button is hit. In the event the user makes a mistake, I want them to have the ability to delete the last line that was added.
This is the code I developed so far. The string coming in and leaving is attached to a shift register so it continues to append to the indicator. I tried in this case to count how many lines have been written in the string so far, and I built an array with the current string. Using the delete from array.VI I indexed it to the number of lines that was created so that the last line is deleted. I unfortunately had no luck. Any suggestions?

Hey Tbob,
That almost worked. The only issue though is it leaves a null string in its place without moving everything after up one line. Also, if i have a parameter repeating multiple times, it doenst seem to work.
I'm confused. If you are deleting the last line, how can there be anything after? What do you mean by a parameter repeating multiple times?
If you look at my example front panel, you will see that the last line is deleted. Isn't this what you asked for?
It's due to the fact that your constant doesn't have a comma in the last line. If you add that in, you should be able to reproduce his problem. This is just a guess though, I didn't actually test it to see.

Any way to limit the input format for string control?

Hi there,
I need a control for the user to input some string with only alphabets and no special characters. Also need to control the number of characters to input. I search it and see someone use Xcontrol to achieve that but I really have no idea how to get that. Any other way to get this function works on string input?

prvs wrote:
Dear Altenbach,
The VI that you have posted in (Max8Discard.vi) in Limiting Input String Length
limits the entry of string control to required length but it doesnt limit the entry of special characters.
If you have any simple way to do the same it will be very helpful
Thanks in advance...!!!
Regards,
Praveen PRVS
Just change the check after the Lexical Class function. If you just want numbers and letters, then use the In Range & Coerce function to check for class numbers 3 through 5. Play around with the logic some more until you get what you need (I'm thinking that AND should be an OR).

How can I substitute characters in a string when the same characters are used in both input and output strings

Hi Numbers users,
I am trying to get Numbers 2.3 on OS X (10.9.1) to convert cells containing variable length strings composed of 6 letters, A, B, C, a, b, c into a second string containing the same 6 lettersusing the rule A to c, B to b, and C to a and vice versa, so for example cell A1 might contain string "AcBbCaaB" and I want Numbers to convert this into "cAbBaCCb" in cell B1. I have tried to use the SUBSTITUTE function (nested) without success so far as I end up with the letters either all uppercase or all lowercase. I understand why this is happening and maybe it isn't possible using SUBSTITUTE. Does anyone know if there is another function I can use to do this?
Thanks, Hugh.

you can use this method:
Add a new table, called "Translator", show as the bottom table:
Enter the data in columns B anc C as shown
cell A1 contains:
"=CODE(B1)"
select cell A1 and fill down
For the table on top enter your code in column A. The converted code will be in column B. Make sure there are enough columns (I went out to column AD):
B2=R2&S2&T2&U2&V2&W2&X2&Y2&Z2&AA2&AB2&AC2&AD2
C2=LEN(A2)
D2=MID($A2, COLUMN()−2, 1)
select D2, copy,
select cells D2 thru P2, paste
R2=IFERROR(VLOOKUP(CODE(D2), Translator::$A:$C, 3, 0), "")
select R2, copy,
select cells R2 thru AD2, paste
select B2 thru AD2 and fill down as needed
You can hide columns C thru AD

Input Stream and String

I need to create a string and then pass it as an inputStream to another program. I've looked at the API, I see the StringReader object. But I don't know how to convert it to an inputStream. I'd like to do the fastest thing available, because this is basically just for debugging purposes. Can anyone help?
Thanks

then pass it as an inputStream to another program.How do you want to pass it? via a socket? via a file?
else?I'd pass it through its' parameter
basically
parse(inp);
where inp is an inputStream. But instead of inp coming from a file. I need it to come from a string.
