Writing to the end of a file.

Hi everyone.
My question for you guys this time is as follows:
Let's say that you have a textfile consisting of 1000 lines of text. How do i write new data after the last line?
Thanks.
//Peter

What you do is this: You read the API, and you find that most classes that opens files for writing have a constructor that takes a boolean variable called "append".

  • BUG: Extra characters at the end of attachment file names

    I received complaints that my attachments didn't open on the PC's of the recipients. After I saw the messages I noticed there were extra characters at the end of their file names. That's why they wouldn't open. When I looked into my sent mail folder it was there as well. The addition took place when I sent the mail, while composing everything looked fine. It took me a while to realize the pattern. There was one extra for every non-ASCII character in the file name.
    Apparently Mail.app is using two different libraries. The other one counts the non-ASCII characters as two while the other doesn't. I don't know whether Finder still uses MacRoman or Unicode, but this seems to relate to double-byte characters.
    The short term solution is to use only ASCII for file names, but that's not what OS X is all about.

    The class files are broken. Recompile them. If you're uploading them, doublecheck if the FTP program used doesn't do mad things with binary files.

    my JRE is 1.5.0_02

  • How to write to the end of a file

    i am tryign to write to the end of a file using bufferwriter and bufferreadear. I am trying to the read the file until i reach the end and then write in the end. I have some code but i dont know how to read until the end of the file.
    File file = new  File ("Product.txt");
              FileReader reader = new FileReader (file);
              BufferedReader readBuff = new BufferedReader (reader);
              FileWriter write = new FileWriter(file);
              BufferedWriter writeBuff = new BufferedWriter(write);
              String line = readBuff.readLine();     
    // i know i need to put a while loop somewhere around here

    I want to write to the end of the file, what do you mean when you say "then write() until you've written that many bytes, which will overwrite the bytes already in the file."
              File file = new  File ("Products.txt");
              FileReader reader = new FileReader (file);
              BufferedReader readBuff = new BufferedReader (reader);
              FileWriter write = new FileWriter(file);
              BufferedWriter writeBuff = new BufferedWriter(write);
              String line = readBuff.readLine();
              long fileSize = file.length();
              readBuff.close();
              writeBuff.close();

  • How to add a new line at the end of eTEXT file

    Hi,
    I have modified the RTF template for the R12.1.3 Positive Pay File report (IBYPOS_PAY_en.rtf). Everything is good, except that the bank requires a "T" (Capital T) character in a new line at the end of the text file. Has any of you came across this before? How do I modify the template to achieve this?
    Thank you,

    I believe this is related to BI Publisher. Any comments would be greatly appreciated.

  • Adding to the end of a file

    hi guys,
    im tryin to open a file then add changes to the end of it, at the mo im using the following but it doesnt add to the end, any ideas?
    try {
    BufferedReader br = new BufferedReader(new FileReader("H:\\new folder\\TransactionFile.txt"));
         BufferedWriter bw = new BufferedWriter(new FileWriter("H:\\new folder\\TransactionFile.txt"));
         while (br.readLine() != null) {

         bw.close();
         br.close();
    catch(Exception e){
         System.out.println(e);

    Look up the documentation of FileWriter -- there is a constructor which lets you specify whether to append or not.

  • Strange character at the end of some file/folder names

    I'm getting a strange character at the end of some of my file and folder names. This is it:  When I enlarge it, it says "private use" on the top and bottom, "E000" on the left side, and "F8FF" on the right side. It acts like a character within the font, but I'm not sure why it's there.
    In case that didn't work, I'm going to try to attach or embed a gif of the character. I'm not sure if it will work or not.
    Also, some longer file names seem to be dleeting some of the letters and are inserting a pound sign and a few numbers (e.g. #34) in place of the letters.
    What's going on?
    As usual, thanks in advance,
    Lloyd

    I thought that might be it...at first. Then I found some file names that were nowhere near 32 characters long whose names were truncated.
    It's not a huge problem, except in QuarkXPress when I collect the files for output and I have to reconnect to the ones whose names have been changed (to protect the innocent, I suppose).
    Thanks for the input mark.

  • How do I launch new file at the end of current file?

    Hi,
    I am using Captivate 8.  I post my completed files on Cornerstone.
    Currently I have three lessons that must be launched manually from Cornerstone.  At the end of lesson 1, I would like to launch lesson 2.  I would prefer some kind of button that says "Would you like to proceed to the next lesson?"  If yes, lesson 2 would launch.  I know this is probably an easy question for some but I can't get it to work.  Do I need to publish file 3 first, then work backward to file 1?  What else do I need to know/do?
    Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

    I am trying to use the functionality that is found in the Preferences menu under Start and End.  It says I can link to another project.  Scroll down to see the message I get when I publish.  I am not sure exactly what from the output of file 2 that it wants me to include in the output of file 1 or how to export it to get it there.  Sorry.  Newbie to this functionality.
    Here is the message I get when I publish (SCORM output)

  • Sender File adapter - DataTime stamp at the end of aarchived file name

    Hello,
    I am archiving the file once PI file sender adapter picks the file from source directory.
    The file is archived in the archive directory as <Date-Time-SSS_>FileName.
    I need to append the value <Date-Time-SSS_> after the file name.
    So archived file looks like FileName_<Date-Time-SSS>
    How can I achieve this? Appreciate your help for valuable suggestions.
    Thanks,
    Namadev

    Hi Namdev,
    Generally when we archive file then in sender CC we just put the processing mode as Archive and specify the Archived directory name in Archive Directory section. in that case when the Communication channel pick the source file then after picking it it remove it from source directory and put it into Archived directory without making any change in the file name.
    so if the file name is A.txt then in Archived directory also its name will be A.txt . However if you want to make any change in the name of the source file in the archived directory then you have two write Unix or DOC scrpt( depending upon your soure server )
    if your source server is Unix then write shell script otherwise dos scriprt
    .after wrtting the shell script just place in the archived directory or your source directory and call it in by mentioning it in Coomand Line section of your sender CC. You can easily search and get the required  shell script .

  • Adding semicolon at the end of text file in ssis

    Hi,

    But i need 1;2;3;
    Can anybody help me please..Its really a business need and i need to do this
    Abhishek

    Abishek,
    You could try having a Derived Column task inbetween the Excel source and Flatfile destination.
    Add a derived column task
    Configure the new column name by giving a name and choose input as the last column anme of excel (col21)
    Use expression to add the ';' to the last column
    (DT_WSTR,100)column21 + ";"
    Then, map THIS new column to col21 of flatfile in the mappings tab of the flatfile destination task respectively.
    For more info on the Derived Column task, check:

  • How to replace the end of a file name

    I have a seriously dumb question...
    I have a row of thousands of file names (top-down, row a), these names are, for example, "photo-1.jpg" and I need to change the .jpg to .nef. How can I accomplish this?
    thanks!!

    Or just use this 'Find Replace in Selection' Automator Service (Dropbox download) without having to fuss about taking columns out to another app, fiddling with them there, and bring them back in.
    It is just a short AppleScript that, after a quick installation, will look like this in your menu:
    Select the cells where you want to make the replacement, choose 'Find Replace in Selection' from the menu, and enter the find-replace values when prompted. In your case you will see something like this:
    Hit OK and you're done.
    One-time installation is just a doubleclick on the .workflow package.
    Depending on your settings you may have to go to System Preferences > Security & Privacy and click 'Open Anyway'.
    'Install' simply moves the script to your Library > Services folder so it will show up in your Numbers menu.  It doesn't do anything to the innards of your computer.  If you want, you can check out the script first by choosing 'Open with Automator'.
    Since this (obviously) changes values in your document you might want to test it first to make sure it is working as you want.
    If you need to get rid of it then in Finder hold down the option key, choose Go in the menu and navigate to Library > Services, where you can trash it the way you would any other file or package in Finder.
    SG
    Edit: use jpg and nef rather than .jpg and .nef.

  • What is the @ sign at the end of a file mode string

    I have a directory (which I am the owner and I have admin access) with the following mode string:
    drwxrwxr-x@. All files in the dir have the @ appended to their mode string. This attribute modifier prevents me from altering files without entering the admin password. What is this @ and how can I get rid of it?

    @ displays that the file or directory has extended attributes.
    man ls
    is your friend. To manipulate extended attributes look at the help file for xattr
    xattr -h
