Which encoding uses XI internally for plain text files

Hi,
I want to read in (via file adapter) some plain texts of different character encoding and map them via a Java mapping file.
My question is now, which encoding does the internally XI bytestream have?
Does the XI file adapter convert it to UTF-8 or keeps it the encoding which is configured in the file adapter?
Is there a way to retrieve the correct encoding within my Java mapping?
Kind regards,
Peter

Hi Peter,
When you declare the file as "text" and apply the correct encoding, then the file adapter converts the file to UTF-8.
When you declare the file as "binary", then the file adapter leaves the file as is, but in this case you have no information about the code page in Java Mapping.
Regards
Stefan

How can I use the FTP server on Oracle XML DB for plain text files?

Hi,
I need to generate comma separated files for download via FTP. The files are generated from Oracle Table data and should be published on a FTP Server. Would it be able to use the FTP Server on Oracle XML DB?
If not, any suggestions?
Thanks
Frederik Christensen

You can create a temporary CLOB with your CSV content, and then folder the CLOB into the XDB repository with DBMS_XDB.createRESOURCE()...
This would work fine....

TextEdit - Plain Text Files That Open In Windows?

Hi. Just got an iMac. I've been trying to make plain text files in TextEdit that show up correctly in Windows on a PC. I've tried saving the same document in 4 different formats:
- Plan Text Unicode (UTF-8)
- Plain Text Unicode (UTF-16)
- Plain Text Western (Mac OS Roman)
- Plain Text Western (Windows Latin 1)
But none of these look right on a PC. All of the line breaks I've entered show up replaced by black rectangles. Why is this?
What format should I save as in TextEdit, to create Plain Text files that are compatible with both PC and Macs?

First, note that TextEdit does not create plain text files, it creates rich text files (.rtf). If you truly want plain text, try the free TextWrangler:
http://www.barebones.com/
As to the line break problem, Macs use just a carriage return as the end-of-line character, while Windows uses a carriage return followed by a line break character. At least, that's how I understand it. Most likely, whatever app you're using on Windows is dumb enough that it can't figure out what to do with the Mac line endings. TextWrangler will let you change the line breaks, so you could use it to create plain text files with Windows line breaks. Of course, that doesn't help if you didn't really want plain text (ie, absolutely no styling, just raw text).

Font Used For Quick Look Plain Text Files?

Hi,
Does anyone know what font Leopard uses when you Quick Look a plain text file? It's one that isn't anti-aliased. I can't seem to find it anywhere in my Font Book.

You could override that with code in userContent.css, either for all websites or for specific websites.

How to load data in plain-text file into database by using EJB?

Hi,
We need to develop an on-line application which requires us to load input data
from a selected plain-text file on the Web server (iplanet server) into the backend
oracle database. How could I use EJB to make it happen? it seems like using Entity
EJB is not feasible.
Really appreciate your help!

Plain text files appeared from nowhere in my finder window

I have a whole bunch of plain text files that have appeared in my finder window when searching in my user profile at the stage where I can view documents, desktop, music etc [sorry not sure what this is called and wanted to make obvious what I'm talking about].
Can anyone help. I have no idea what these files are, but they look empty.
Have I hit a view hidden files button somewhere that I can't find again? Can I just delete them all?
Thanks for the help, this forum has been very useful for a number of things!
Nick

Hi nick,
You have navigated to your home folder. (/Drive/Users/shortname/)
Some programs will automatically save files there. You can delete them if you want but that may destroy settings in the app that put them there. How long was it since you last viewed the visible files in your home directory? Have you installed any new programs since then? What are the names of the files and can you infer from them where they came from? You can always try moving the files to another folder (without deleting them) and then see if you are suddenly missing any settings in a new app or if they are replaced. Might help you figure out who is putting them there.
Hope that helps.
edit: There is no view hidden files button unless you installed a program which specifically makes them viewable, or were playing around in terminal I suppose.

What happened to importing plain text files in iTunes?

I used to be able to export the playlist containing all the music I wanted to listen to as a plain text file. I would then import this file into a spread sheet, sort as I desired, assign each song a number, sort on that number and save the resulting groups to plain text files. I would then import these text files as playlists. It appears that this capability has disappeared in the current version of iTunes. I am capable of working with the xml if I have to, but that is more effort than I think is necessary. Have I missed something?

I have been thinking about what you are suggesting and even with your last reply it does not solve the problem. I suspect you still do not see what I am driving towards. I have playlists for all songs with 5 starts, all songs with 4 stars, all songs with number of plays less than n. I also have playlists of those three that have not been played in n days. I listen to those sometimes. I also listen to my existing playlists which contain subsets all music not christmas and have at least a 3 start rating. This last set is not smart at present. With the current setup, music in those first 3 playlists get played more often. Any smart playlist that has to include not played in the last x will not play those songs more often unless I play those playlists more often. At present, to generate those non smart playlists I export, divide, and import information. Apple has changed the format it accepts on input. I either have to accept their new import method and start programming, or find a smart playlist method that solves this problem. I do not believe that anything yet suggested for smart solves the problem. The closest I have come is 3 playlists. One smart and two dumb. The smart one is all songs with rating above 3 and not christmas that have not been played in last x and is not in the two dumb ones and limit to 100. The dumb ones start empty. Let it populate, drag the list to one of the dumb ones. Let the smart one recompute. Drag it to the second dumb one. Play one list on each device. When playlist finishes, blank the dumb one for that device, sync, let iTunes repopulate the smart list, drag to dumb list and sync again. In the long term, I think I am better off programming.

Save results of javascript operation to a plain text file

Hi,
How do you save to a file using Acrobat javascript? Not a PDF file - I know how to do that - but to a plain text file.
I have javascript that searches through a PDF document and generates some output. I can send the output to a Report (in PDF format, obviously) or to the console, but I can't see how to send it to a plain text file, which is what I need.
Any assistance gratefully appreciated.
Thanks,
Tim.

Ah, great, yes that seems to do what I want.
However, I get an error ...
My code is as follows:
function CreateOutput()
     // assembles text and puts it into the variable: output
     // e.g.:
     output = "Hello, world";
var output = "";
CreateOutput();
this.createDataObject("testfile.txt", output);
Unfortunately I get this error and I don't understand it!
InvalidGetError: Get not possible, invalid or unknown.
Doc.pageNum:6:Batch undefined:Exec
Obviously I'm doing somethign wrong ... but what?
Thanks very much,
Tim.

Using java to call a text file

I am new to java and was wondering if there is a way of using java to call a text file on my server and use it to create a webpage using a template. Namely to click a link to a poem, and have the java automatically create a page from a text file of the poetry. I need to know if this is even possible, what I would need to look into, (IE: which software or applet to look for), and if there are any sites that anyone knows about that I could learn how to do this. currently I am having to create a page for every poem posted on my site, which takes a great deal of time, and I would like to speed the process up a bit if it is possible. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Why a text file? I don't think it is a best practice of doing that. Just use a database, keep your poem collections there, and set up a jsp page that seek the database, and then display it on another jsp page. I guess you can find similar application in the sample projects provided by JSC.

Help! Every app crashes when interacting with plain text files

I recently bought a 13" i7 MacBook Air. I love its design and I found OS X Lion unbelievably fast on it, yet I find myself in a very dark situation, now.
From the Finder to iA Writer, to TextEdit, every single app crashes when working with plain text files. In Finder’s column view I don’t even have to open them: the instant one .txt is selected, Finder crashes.
Creating a new user account seems to fix the bug for that account, but I just spent one whole day copying files from my old work MacBook (where Lion opened .txt files without a problem) to the new account and losing another entire day of work because of a stupid bug is out of question. Also, I feel it would be a very temporary fix. What if the bug presented itself again? Would I have to create a third, a fourth account, and so on?
I didn’t use any migration tool because I wanted a very clean installation.
On top of that, the machine is as App Store–only as one could be. The only “internet” apps I have on it are Chrome (for the occasional Flash video), Movist (I can’t work with Quicktime’s flying controls), and nvALT. I didn’t even had the time to install the Creative Suite on this one. I can’t for the life of me think this is app–related. I suspect it’s some weird OS bug.
I work in advertising, and I do some work in Adobe’s Creative Suite but *all* my copy is stored in plain text files. I always did it that way so that my files would be future–proof. It is kind of ironic now. So please, if anyone as the slightest idea of how to fix this, please, please, help. I find myself with a brand new computer I can’t use for work.

What are the files named?
Where are they being made? (What folder?)

PI removing blank spaces at the end of the lines in a plain text file

Hi -
I have an interface that transfers a file via FTP. I defined both the sender and receiver to transfer either Text or Binary but the interface removes every blank space I have after the last character. The file is a fixed lenght file.
Example:
Original file:
Hello world(space)(space)(space)(space)(space)(space)(space)(space)(eol)
where (space) is the space character and (eol) is the end of line char.
File after it is received.
Hello world(eol)
I already defined the parameter Row.fieldFixedLenghts with 10164 which is the lenght of the lines of the file.
Any ideas why it may be happening?
Thanks,
Carlos.

Hi -
I tried both the parameters:
xml.fieldContentFormatting
structure.fieldContentFormatting
The received file still has the problem. All the blank spaces are cleared out.
The file is a plain text file not an XML file. May this be the issue?
Thanks,
Carlos.

Are plain text files treated differently in SP 2010 than MOSS 2007?

We just moved to SP 2010 a week ago. A user just contacted us asking why the files she accesses are not displaying.
When she accessed these plain text files in MOSS 2007, they displayed within IE as a full page of text.
When she accesses these now in SP 2010, she is prompted to download the file.
These files do not end in .txt - they are names such as 2013.09.20 or whatever.
Is there a way to configure 2010 to display, without any interpretation, plain text files within the browser?
Thank you.

Hi ,
According to your description, my understanding is that you could not access the txt files with browser after migrading to SharePoint 2010..
Whether this issue occurred if you upload a new txt file to a library.
In my testing, everything worked well. The Open Documents in Client Applications by Default feature was acitve, and in the Library Settings->Advanced settings, ‘Use the server default(Open in the client application)’ was selected. When I clicked the file
name, it promted a dialog like the below, I selected ‘Read-Only’, and clicked OK, the file could open with browser.
Please go to IE->Tools->Internet Options->Programs->Manage add-ons, enable all add-ons related to SharePoint, compare the result.
I hope this helps.
Thanks,
Wendy

[SOLVED] Thunar sees both '.doc' and '.txt' as plain text files...

Hello,
I'm using Thunar as my file manager. However, it sees both '.doc' and '.txt' files as "plain text files".
This means that I can't make the .doc files open with OpenOffice and the .txt files open with a plaintext editor, because whenever I change the program association of one, the other changes.
How to fix that? (looks like a MIME-type issue).
Thanks.

Finally it works. Thanks!

'Plain text' files taking up 12gb

Hi,
I'm hoping someone can help me. I've recently been getting warnings that my start up disc is almost full. So I moved many photos and music files to an external HD and managed to free up 20gb.
I then ran 'disc inventory' which showed that next to iTunes and movie files, 'plain text' files, 27,000 of them were taking up 12gb and 65,000 documents 11gb.
Can someone please tell me where these files will be found on my mac as they need to be sorted - I've read that this could be a virus but what is the best way of combating this?
There is no way I have this many files or documents and need to know how they are being stored!
Thanks everyone
