Urgent!!! checking a text file!

Hello,
I have a text file with some info in it.
How do you cross-reference some text inside the text file with out importing the text file into a String???
example:
File myFile = new File(/file.txt);
// inside myFile contains the text: "the sun is great"how do you check if myFile contains the String "sun" ???
with out importing all the text in the file?

It probably exists because some teacher wants his kiddos to learn to think outside the box, and this kiddo is too incompetent to even notice the box it's in.

How to check a text file is already opened by another process

Hi All,
We are facing a requirement to check a simple text file that has been already opened by some other process using java programming.We are using simple file reading concepts to read the content of those text file
For eg: Let us take sample.txt in any of the system location which is manually opened and we need to check that sample.txt is opened or not using java programming.
If it is not opened by any process then only we should read that file otherwise we shouldn't.
ANY GUIDANCE WILL BE HELPFUL...
Thanks & Regards,

Hi Christian,
Thanks. Our scenario is...
1. We have log files(in.txt) which is scheduled everyday for tracking and the scheduler will be writing the file ,it will be closed by night 11.
2.So in case if we write any java code to access that log file(using io file concept in java) we need access to that log file from our standalone java program only after night 11 0 clock.
3.So we should check a condition whether that log file has been already used by some other process.
Thanks & Regards.

Read from text file, display in textarea

java newbie here - I'm trying to write a chat program that checks a text file every 1 second for new text, and then writes that text to a textArea. I've got the thread setup and running, and it checks and text file for new text - all that works and prints to system console - but I have no idea how to print that text to a textArea.
I've tried textArea.append, but it seems this only works on the initial run - if I put it in the thread, it won't work. I can make textArea.append work if its in an ActionEvent - but how would I make an ActionEvent run only when my script detects new text from my text file?
Any ideas on how to do this are appreciated.

I've tried textArea.append, but it seems this only works on the initial
run - if I put it in the thread, it won't work. I can make textArea.append
work if its in an ActionEvent - but how would I make an ActionEvent
run only when my script detects new text from my text file? ?
It doesn't matter if you call the textArea.append() when the ActionEvent is triggered or if you call textArea.append() directly from a thread or any other object, the text will be append to te text area. What could have happen is you somehow lost the reference pointing to the textArea that you add to your user interface.
example:
JTextArea txtArea = blah..blah..blah
MyThread t = new myThread(txtArea);
class MyThread extends Thread{
    private JTextArea txtArea;
    public MyThread(Thread textArea){
        this.textArea = textArea;
    public void run(){
        textArea = new JTextArea(); // opps..you lost the reference to the textArea in the main gui...what you have done is created a new JTextArea object and point to tat..and this textarea object is not visible.
}

Create a Blank Text file if it does not exist in a Given Directory

Hi,
I would like to check if text file in a given folder exists or not if not then create a blank text file in a given directory. I was checking File system task, it has options to create directory and move files, copy files but not creating files.
How can I create a blank text file in a given directory in SSIS using script task or any other way.
Many thanks.

Want to know how to check for new line character in text file

Hi All,
I`m trying to read data from text file. However I`m not sure whether the data is in 1st line or nth line. Now I`m trying to read the text from the readline. But if text is "" and not NULL then my code fails. So I want to know how to check for new line character and go to next line to find the data. Please help.
Thanks

          BufferedWriter out = null;
          BufferedReader in = null;

You are calling the readline() only once which means you are reading only the first line from the file...
Use a loop (Do-While preferably)
do{
//your code
}while(text == "")

Upload text file to oracle table with checking and aggregation

Hi Friends,
I am new to ODI. I have encountered a problem which is specific to ODI 11G (11.1.1.6.3) to upload text file to oracle table with checking and aggregation. Would you please teach me how to implement the following requirement in ODI 11G?
Input text file a:
staffCode, staffCat, status, data
input text file b:
staffCodeStart, staffCodeEnd, staffCat
temp output oracle table c:
staffCat, data
output oracle table d:
staffCat, data
order:
a.staffCode, a.staffCat, a.status
filter:
a.status = ‘active’
join:
a left outerjoin b on a.staffCode between b.staffCodeStart and b.staffCodeEnd
insert temp table c:
c.staffCat = if b.staffCat is not null then b.staffCat else a.staffCat
c.data = a.data
insert table d:
if c.staffCat between 99 and 1000 then d.staffCat = c.staffCat, d.data = sum(c.data)
else d.staffCat = c.staffCat, d.data = LAST(c.data)
Any help on fixing this is highly appreciated. Thanks!!
Thanks,
Chris

Dear Santy,
Many thanks for your prompt reply. May I have more information about the LAST or SUM step?
I was successful to create and run the following interfaces p and q
1. Drag text file a to a newly created interface panel p
2. Filter text file a : a.status = ‘active’
3. Lookup text file a to text file b : a.staffCode between b.staffCodeStart and b.staffCodeEnd
4. Drag oracle temp table c to interface panel p
5. Set c.staffCat : CASE WHEN b.staffCat IS NULL THEN a.staffCat ELSE b.staffCat END
6. Set c.data : a.data
7. Drag oracle temp table c to a newly created interface panel q
8. Drag oracle table d to interface panel q
9. Set UK to d.staffCat
10. Set Distinct Rows to table d
11. Set d.staffCat = c.staffCat
12. Set d.data = SUM(c.data)
However, the interface q should be more than that:
If c.staffCat is between 99 and 1000, then d.data = the last record c.data; else d.data = sum(c.data)
Would you please teach me how to do the LAST or SUM steps? Moreover, can interface p and interface q be combined to one interface and do not use the temp table c? Millions thanks!
Regards,
Chris

How do I compare these text files (aka spell check)

I'm having the hardest time figuring out how to get this spell check to work. Basically, I need to open the dictionary.txt file and then another file which will be spell checked. Ignoring case sensitivity, punctuation, and word endings (such as ly, ing, s). And then output to the user the words that were not found in the dictionary. Here is what I have so far (and it is very basic.... there is no attempt to compare yet since I don't know how to approach this). I only have it outputting to a JTextArea what is opened minus punctuation and upper case....

Yes, he actually recommends us to use java 1.5. I have revised my code to read into a TreeSet from the dictionary.txt, but I keep getting the following error when I compile:
Note: C:\Jwork\spell1.java uses unchecked or unsafe operations.
Note: Recompile with -Xlint:unchecked for details.
Finished spell1.
Also, when I execute, nothing happens. It looks like it is going to try to do something, but the "open" dialog box never opens and no errors pop up. It just sits there executing. Any suggestions??

Oracle UCM fails to check in text/xml files

We have an Oracle UCM server that is failing to check in xml files over a certain size - I haven't narrowed down the size limit yet, but a <100kb file will work 100% of the time, while 300+ Kb xml files fail almost all the time, though there has been some success. Image files and zip file succeed on new check ins 100% of the time as well. We have tried with the SOAP API and the UCM new check in form - in both cases we get an empty repsonse from the server. In firefox we get the "The connection was reset" page. I'm at a loss as to explain why, but I have almost no experience with Oracle UCM. This particular server has been running for over a year happily accepting xml files of all sizes, then one day just stopped - as far as I am aware, nobody changed any
settings/upgraded anything/changed network topology.
When I look in the server output, I don't really see any indication of failure or find any mention of the file name or content title like I do when a file successfully checks in.
I have already asked the DBA to drop and rebuild the database index, started the Collection rebuild cycle (it finished successfully) and turned on the webless file store option on the defaultfilestore provider.
UCS Version : 10.1.3.3.3 (080807) (Build:7.2.2.188)
Database : Microsoft SQL Server 09.00.4035 currently using DATABASE.METADATA though I think it was at one point using Full text search, but the database was not.
Java Version:1.6.0
Please ask if there is any other information you need, but I do not have physical access to the machine, and I may not be able to reveal certain info due to privacy/security concerns.

Hello,
I think you should open an SR with support to help out. Be that as it may, here's some observations/suggestions...
* You are running a 4-year old content server. There have been numerous fixes since then. Your system may have grown to a point where it's hit one of the older issues.
* Is it possible the XML encoding may have changed? i.e. that whatever generates the XML files is now generating them slightly differently and therefore the encoding is different so check-in doesn't follow the same rules? I'd look at the first line of older files versus the new files which fail. If there's a difference, refer to KM note 978689.1 in our knowledge base.
* You say there doesn't appear to be anything in the logs, so let's increase them:
- Login to UCM as Administrator. Go to Administration->System Audit Information. Switch on the Full Verbose Tracing checkbox. In the Active Sections field, put in:
systemdatabase - this will show you what queries and inserts are made to the database and should show whether there's a problem at that level.
requestaudit - this shows you the requests as they come in, as well as a roundup of all requests every 2 minutes. If you see large amounts of time being taken on requests, your server could be creaking because of resources.
publish - tells you about publishing related issues, most XML file check-ins are related to this.
- Try to check in a file which should fail.
- Switch off verbose logging (see above) to reduce overhead.
If the OS is Windows then the <install>/config.cfg file needs to have UseRedirectedOutput=true in order to generate a log file for this tracing. On Windows the file is the <install>/bin/IdcServerNT.log file. (if the above config is set)
On *nix it is in the <install>/etc/log file (notice that there is no file extension on the file)
If none of the logs helps you, an SR is probably in order.
Regards,
Frank.

Read email adress from a text file then check the validity of them

a text file has three lines, each line contains one email adress:
[email protected]
qwe@@ws.com
wer//@we.net
read the email address from a text file, then check which one is invalid, output the invalid email adress in the console.

no 3 .umm, an email adress can have more than 2 '.'s in it,
example:
[email protected]
would be a valid email address.
To decide what a valid address is you'd need to parse it against the correct standard.
I think however that javax.mail.internet.InternetAddress does this for you, check out the docs:
http://java.sun.com/products/javamail/1.2/docs/javadocs/javax/mail/internet/InternetAddress.html
even if it parses it may not be a valid address though in that it may not actually exist.

Interactive Bar/pie chart and line graph, data from excel/text file -urgent

Hi,
I have a huge data in excell sheet which keeps updating every month. Data basically consists of service provider and there respective subscribers from various regions of the country over the years. The requirement is to give the viewers an interactive page where in they can make various combinations and can compare, cross examine data according to thier choice.
We want the pie chart / bar graph or line graph to be created on the fly according to the combination made by the user.
The site is hosted on a red hat linux server. how can a connection to the excel spreadsheet be made or is it possible to read from the text file if the entire data is exported to a text file.
Is there any ready made tool/code available which can be customised according to the need.
Thanx in advance
Regards
Prakash

I certainly wouldn't pay for the graphing package at the previous link. check out http://www.object-refinery.com/jfreechart/ for a free, open-source, much better looking graphing package.

Added a check to Text to sequence file result in Test Stand hang up.

I added the check in text to sequence file translator.vi (the file is attached)
With this addition I generated the dll.
Test Stand load the sequence file without any problem for the first time.
If I add a space to the sequence file and save the file; test stand tries to load the new sequence file saying file has changed do you want to load the new sequence...
But fails to load the sequence (Test Stand hangs up)
The only way to overcome is kill the TestStand thru task manager.
Which displays
"You chose to end the nonresponsive program, SeqEdit.exe"
Attached the displayed error (error.doc)

Hi Vidula,
Is it only when you add a space to the file name that you see this behavior? If, for instance, you add a '1' to the beginging of the file name does the same thing happen?

Thanks for Immediate reply.
