What is the best combination of read and write objects to binary files ...

Hi everyone,
what are the best combination of read and write objects to read/write a record of customers from a binary file. I should be able to use StringTokenizer. I am bit confused with all these Stream reader and writers.
abdul

You are, indeed, confused:
o StreamTokenizer works on character input, not binary input.
o Readers and Writers in general work on character streams, not binary.
That leaves you various input streams and output streams for reading binary data.

  • What is the best way to read and manipulate large data in excel files and show them in Sharepoint

    Hi ,
    I have a large excel file that has 700,000 records in it. The excel file has a few columns that change every day.
    What is the best way to read the data form the excel file in fastest and most efficient way.
    2 nd Problem,
    I have one excel file that has many rows each row contain some data that has certain keywords.
    What I want is  to segregate the data of rows into respective sheets(tabs ) in the workbook.
    for example in rows have following data 
    1. Alfa
    2beta
    3 gama
    4beta
    5gama
    6gama
    7alfa
    in excel
    I want there to be 3 tabs now with each of the key words alfa beta and gamma.

    Hi,
    I don't really see any better options for SharePoint. SharePoint use other production called 'Office Web App' to allow users to view/edit Microsoft Office documents (word, excel etc.). But the web version of excel doesn't support that much records as well
    as there's size limitations (probably the default max size is 10MB).
    Regarding second problem, I think you need some custom solutions (like a SharePoint timer job/webpart ) to read and present data.
    However, if you can reduce the excel file records to something near 16k (which is supported rows in web version of excel) then you can use SharePoint Excel service to refresh data automatically in the excel file in SharePoint from some external sources.

  • What is the best cheap/free search and replace software for .xml files?

    Transferring my iTunes library from PC to Mac I have reached the stage where I want to edit the .xml file from PC file paths to Mac ones - which would be the best preferrably free software to do this on?

    Perhaps my comment in your other thread will help.

    PS I don't know about the Mac, but Notepad++ will probably do your search & replace on the PC if you have to edit the XML.

  • When using the Database Connectivity Toolset, reads and writes with long binary fields are incompatible.

    I am trying to write LabVIEW Variants to long binary fields in a .mdb file using the Database Connectivity Toolset. I get errors when trying to convert the field back to a variant after reading it back from the database.
    I next tried flattening the variant before writing it and ultimately wound up doing the following experiments:
    1) If I use DB Tools Insert Data to write an ordinary string and read it back using a DB Tools Select Data, the string is converted from ASCII to Unicode.
    2) If I use DB Tools Create Parameterized Query to do an INSERT INTO or an UPDATE operation, specifying that the data is BINARY, then read it back using a DB Tools Select Data,
    the length of the string is prepended to the string itself as a big-endian four-byte integer.
    I can't think of any way to do a parameterized read, although the mechanism exists to return data via parameters.
    Presuming that this same problem affects Variants when they are written to the database and read back, I could see why I get an error. At least with flattened strings I have the option of discarding the length bytes from the beginning of the string.
    Am I missing something here?

    David,
    You've missed the point. When a data item is flattened to a string, the first four bytes of the string are expected to be the total length of the string in big-endian binary format. What is happening here is that preceding this four-byte length code is another copy of the same four bytes. If an ordinary string, "abcdefg" is used in place of the flattened data item, it will come back as <00><00><00><07>abcdefg. Here I've used to represent a byte in hexadecimal notation. This problem has nothing to do with flattening and unflattening data items. It has only to do with the data channel consisting of writing to and reading from the database.
    I am attaching three files that you can use to demonstrate the problem. The VI file c
    ontains an explanation of the problem and instructions for installing and operating the demonstration.

    You need to install Google on your computer. That way, you can search for all the information on that algorithm available on the Internet.

  • What is the best way to save and share Captivate software simulation files in Connect?

    File sizes (of 9mb zipped) appear to be causing problems. I've tried to share this short video any number of ways and I have not been successful.

    Thank you. I have tried publishing directly to Connect and many other ways. I was able to upload a ppt converted SWF, so I know I can do it, but I'm not doing something correcly with the simulation, and I'm not sure what. I can add the file to my Content and it appears to want to upload in Connect, but I just get the wait screen and no controls to play the file. I've also aggregated the ppt SWF and the simulation SWF, and it won't recognize this either. I'm close, but I'm just missing something.

    What is the best way to scan and sort old photos in iPhoto?  They do not have digital dates.

    Hey Chicago Sue,
    Once you scan them and have them on your desktop. You should use Automator and assign the common IPTC tags to the images, so that when you do import them into iPhoto, they get recorded.
    Here is an example of an action in Automator:

    Governments and ex's will/may have recourse to the legal process (or in the case of the Gov they can choose to ignore the legal system if they feel like it) when they want to see something of yours, good luck hardening your Mac against that. The best way to avoid the possibility of snooping over public networks is to avoid them but if you can't then Kappy's suggestion will help.
    Strong passwords (everywhere) and don't use the same password in multiple locations.
    If you really want to secure your home wireless use Mac address connection authentication, do not allow unknown Mac addresses to connect. It's much stronger than a WPA password alone.

  • What's the best way for reading this binary file?

    I've written a program that acquires data from a DAQmx card and writes it on a binary file (attached file and picture). The data that I'm acquiring comes from 8 channels, at 2.5MS/s for, at least, 5 seconds. What's the best way of reading this binary file, knowing that:
    -I'll need it also on graphics (only after acquiring)
    -I also need to see these values and use them later in Matlab.
    I've tried the "Array to Spreadsheet String", but LabView goes out of memory (even if I don't use all of the 8 channels, but only 1).
    LabView 8.6
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    But my real problem, at least now, is how can I divide the information to get not only one graphic but eight?
    I can read the file, but I get this (with only two channels):
    So what I tried was, using a for loop, saving 250 elements in different arrays and then writing it to the .txt file. But it doesn't come right... I used 250 because that's what I got from the graphic: at each 250 points it plots the other channel.
    Am I missing something here? How should I treat the information coming from the binary file, if not the way I'm doing?
    (attached are the .vi files I'm using to save in the .txt format)
    (EDITED. I just saw that I was dividing my graph's data in 4 just before plotting it... so It isn't 250 but 1000 elements for each channel... Still, the problem has not been solved)

  • What's the best way to read JSON data?

    Hi all;
    What is the best way to read in JSON data? And is the best way to use it once read in to turn it into XML and apply XPath?
    thanks - dave

    without having a better understanding of what your definition of "use it" is, this question is essentially unanswerable. Jackson is a fairly popular library for translating json to/from java objects. the json website provides a very basic library for parsing to/from xml. which one is the "best" depends on what you want to do with it.Good point. We have a reporting product ([www.windward.net|http://www.windward.net]) and we've had a number of people ask us for JSON support. But how complex the data is and what they want to pull is all over the place. The one thing that's commin is they generally want to pull down the JSON data, and then put specific items from that in the report.
    XML/XPath struck me as a good way to do this for a couple of reasons. First it seems to map well to the JSON data layout. Second it provides a known query language. Third, we have a really good XPath wizard and we could then use it for JSON also.

    This community is great -- very helpful. What is the best way to read "word" docs on my brand new iPad 2? Is there an app for that?

    If you're just reading them from email attachments, you can just open it to "view" the document.
    However, if you wish to do editing and work, you'll need an application. I use Documents to Go, but there are other versions that people are happy with - do a search in the App store for "office suite" or "word processing".
    The next challenge is getting docs back and forth. Doc2Go and others have their own ways to physically sync docs when connected to a computer; you can also email changed/revised/new documents from the iPad to yourself. However, I use a "cloud service" called DropBox that stores docs in the cloud (so I can get to them anywhere) - I paid for the Premium version of Docs2Go to allow that kind of syncing.

    There are many that will work just fine. I've been very happy with the units from Other World Computing:

    but there are other brands and vendors that are also quite good. If your MacBook has a Firewire port, a Firewire-equipped drive will give you the best performance.
