I'm pretty new here, and have been following all I could find on getting my program to append a series of numbers (determined from how often a button was pressed) to a .txt file whenever a timer runs out, but to no avail-I'm not sure what I'm missing...the app starts out by creating a .txt file in the downloads folder with a template in it:
String initialTemplate ="\"1\",\"2\",\"3\",\"4\",\"5\",\"6\",\"7\",\"8\",\"9\",\"10\",\"11\",\"12\"";
File path = Environment.getExternalStoragePublicDirectory(
Environment.DIRECTORY_DOWNLOADS);
File file = new File(path, filename+".txt");
try {
FileOutputStream fos = new FileOutputStream(file);
fos.write(initialTemplate.getBytes());
fos.close();
} catch (FileNotFoundException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
} catch (IOException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
And then when a countdowntimer object finishes and restarts/ends, it triggers the class writeresults() to append the values:
if (CountsRemaining < 1){
textViewTime.setText("00:00:00");
cancel();
writeResults();
finishcount();
} else {
//append data
writeResults();
//Clear all variables
clearCounts();
start();
}
And the important part, to actually write the data, which is what isn't working:
public void writeResults(){
String Message = Count1 + ", " + Count2 + ", " + Count3 + ", " + Count4 + ", " + Count5 + ", " +
Count6 + ", " + Count7 + ", " + Count8 + ", " + Count9 + ", " + Count10 + ", " + Count11 + Count12;
FileWriter writer;
try {
File path = Environment.getExternalStoragePublicDirectory(
Environment.DIRECTORY_DOWNLOADS);
File file = new File (path + filename+".txt");
writer = new FileWriter(file, true);
writer.append(Message);
writer.append("this is a writing test message");
writer.close();
Toast.makeText(getApplicationContext(), "Data Saved", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
} catch (IOException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
}
Any idea what I might be missing? Parameters?
The problem is in this line:
File file = new File (path + filename+".txt");
It should be like this, if you look at your first code, when creating file:
File file = new File (path, filename+".txt");

Hi I have a tricky problem that seems simple but it has been teasing my brain ever since I started it.
My app allows the user to enter a Product Number and an image Number. The app can take more than one image of one product.
When saving the images to gallery I would like to add a sequential file number to it so that I know which images are linked to which product.
Here is the format in which the file will be saved:
String fname = TypeNo + "(" + ImageNo + ")" + sequentialNumber + ".jpg";
For example,
Type No = Test1;
ImageNo = 1;
sequentialNumber = 1;
fname = Test1(1)1;
When the user saves this one, they go back to the data entry activity and If they keep the same TypeNo/ProductCode then the sequentialNo should stay the same for the next save.
If the user enters a different TypeNo/ProductNo then the sequentialNo will increment.
Here is the code I have tried so far which doesn't increment correctly when a new TypeNo is entered:
private void saveImageToExternalStorage(Bitmap bitmap_view) {
String root = Environment.getExternalStoragePublicDirectory(Environment.DIRECTORY_PICTURES).toString();
File myDir = new File(root + "/Digital_Images");
myDir.mkdirs();
String fname = TypeNo + "(" + ImageNo + ")" + sequentialNumber + ".jpg";
File file = new File(myDir, fname);
if (file.exists())
file.delete();
try {
FileOutputStream out = new FileOutputStream(file);
bitmap_view.compress(Bitmap.CompressFormat.JPEG, 90, out);
out.flush();
out.close();
} catch (Exception e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
// Tell the media scanner about the new file so that it is
// immediately available to the user.
MediaScannerConnection.scanFile(this, new String[]{file.toString()}, null,
new MediaScannerConnection.OnScanCompletedListener() {
public void onScanCompleted(String path, Uri uri) {
Log.i("ExternalStorage", "Scanned " + path + ":");
Log.i("ExternalStorage", "-> uri=" + uri);
}
});
}
#Override
protected void onPause() {
super.onPause();
SharedPreferences.Editor editor = sharedPreferences.edit();
String lastUsedTypeNo = TypeNo;
editor.putString("TypeNo", lastUsedTypeNo);
editor.putInt("sequentialNum", sequentialNumber);
editor.apply();
}
#Override
public void onResume() {
super.onResume();
String TypeNoRetrieved = sharedPreferences.getString("TypeNo", null);
int SQNumRetrieved = sharedPreferences.getInt("sequentialNum", 1);
if (TypeNoRetrieved != null || SQNumRetrieved != 0) {
if (TypeNoRetrieved == lastUsedTypeNo ) {
sequentialNumber = SQNumRetrieved;
} else {
sequentialNumber++;
}
}
}
Anyone able to solve this puzzle for me?
Hello i`ve made a program where i unmarshall XML file, get those informations and use them for connecting to server and move files to another folder.
The program goes like this:
1.get the informations from xml
2.connect and upload them to server
3.move the files that have been uploaded to another folder locally.
The problem is when i put Object and method of Upload. The upload is okay, the files are uploaded, new folders are created for files to move there, but the files dont move, they are in the same directory.
If i put Move object and method above Upload its opposite. The files are moved to another folder(locally) but they are not uploaded...
What can be the problem and how to fix this?
Thank you!
Here is my method for marsh and there i use both methods(upload and move):
public void unmarshallList() {
try {
JAXBContext jc = JAXBContext.newInstance(ListNodes.class);
Unmarshaller ums = jc.createUnmarshaller();
ListNodes ln = (ListNodes) ums.unmarshal(new File("C:\\Users\\Desktop\\marshList.xml"));
System.out.println("INFORMATIONS");
System.out.println("-------------------------------");
for (Node p : ln.getListNode()) {
System.out.println("Hostname: " + p.getHostname());
System.out.println("Username: " + p.getUsername());
System.out.println("Password: " + p.getPassword());
System.out.println("Port: " + p.getPort());
System.out.println("Pc Directory: " + p.getPcDirectory());
System.out.println("Node Directory: " + p.getNodeDirectory());
System.out.println("Time interval: " + p.getTimeInterval());
System.out.println("Move Directory" + p.getMoveDir());
System.out.println("-------------------------------");
Upload up = new Upload();
up.connection(p.getHostname(), p.getPort(), p.getUsername(), p.getPassword(), p.getNodeDirectory(), p.getPcDirectory(), p.getTimeInterval(), p.getMoveDir());
Move mv = new Move();
mv.moveFiles(p.getPcDirectory(), p.getMoveDir());
}
} catch (Exception e) {
// TODO: handle exception
System.out.println(e.getMessage());
}
}
And here is my move method:
public static void moveFiles (String oldLocation, String newLocation) {
File source = new File(oldLocation);
File dest = new File(newLocation);
new File(newLocation).mkdir();
File[] files = source.listFiles();
for (File file : source.listFiles()) {
System.out.println(source + "\\" + file.getName());
String x = (source + "\\" + file.getName());
String y = (dest + "\\" + file.getName());
File f1 = new File(x);
f1.renameTo(new File(y));
System.out.println("This file is moved "+x );
}
System.out.println("The files are moved" );
}
And here is the upload method:
private static void recursiveFolderUpload(String sourcePath, String
destinationPath) throws SftpException, FileNotFoundException {
File sourceFile = new File(sourcePath);
if (sourceFile.isFile()) {
// copy if it is a file
channelSftp.cd(destinationPath);
if (!sourceFile.getName().endsWith(".xml"));
channelSftp.put(new FileInputStream(sourceFile), sourceFile.getName(), ChannelSftp.OVERWRITE);
} else {
System.out.println("inside " + sourceFile.getName());
File[] files = sourceFile.listFiles();
if (files != null && !sourceFile.getName().endsWith(".xml")) {
channelSftp.cd(destinationPath);
SftpATTRS attrs = null;
// check if the directory is already existing
try {
attrs = channelSftp.stat(destinationPath + "/" + sourceFile.getName());
} catch (Exception e) {
System.out.println(destinationPath + "/" + sourceFile.getName() + " not found");
}
// else create a directory
if (attrs != null) {
System.out.println("Directory exists IsDir=" + attrs.isDir());
} else {
System.out.println("Creating dir " + sourceFile.getName());
channelSftp.mkdir(sourceFile.getName());
}
for (File f: files) {
recursiveFolderUpload(f.getAbsolutePath(), destinationPath + "/" + sourceFile.getName());
}
}
}
My guess would be the InputStream of the source file is not closed.
I'd try
InputStream in = new FileInputStream(sourceFile)
try {
channelSftp.put(in, sourceFile.getName(), ChannelSftp.OVERWRITE);
} finally {
in.close();
}
or another way
try (InputStream in = new FileInputStream(sourceFile)) {
channelSftp.put(in, sourceFile.getName(), ChannelSftp.OVERWRITE);
}
which closes the InputStream uppon exiting the try statement.
However - without debugging / any exception message it is almost impossible to be sure

File Writer overrides previous write Java

Closed 7 years ago.
Using the code below, I am trying to make a log for a plugin, though, every time it makes a entry I want it to go below the other entry. Though, when I test it, it writes the second entry but the first entry gets deleted.
if (commandLabel.equalsIgnoreCase("logmeup")) {
entry++;
entry3 = entry * 3;
FileWriter fw= null;
File file =null;
try {
file = new File("playerLog.txt");
if(!file.exists()) {
file.createNewFile();
}
fw = new FileWriter(file);
if (entry == 1) {
fw.write("Name: " + player.getDisplayName() + "\nIP: " + player.getAddress() + "\nLocation: " + player.getLocation() + "\n");
fw.close();
}
else {
while (entryloop < entry3) {
entryloop++;
fw.write(System.getProperty( "line.separator" ));
}
entryloop = 0;
fw.write("Name: " + player.getDisplayName() + "\nIP: " + player.getAddress() + "\nLocation: " + player.getLocation() + "\n");
fw.close();
}
} catch (IOException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
}
Flaged as dupe yet I will answer it once again:
Pass second argument of FileWriter as true to make it go into append mode.
fw = new FileWriter(file,true);
I have my GWT project and I want to upload files to server. I want the following algorithm to work
1) create a folder with the name from "userNumber"
2) write uploaded files to this folder
3) add folder to zip
4) delete folder (if exists)
As I write on the server side I think it is just java problem. Here is my code. I can perform only the first and the second steps, i.e. I can create a folder and write files to this folder.
#Override
public String executeAction(HttpServletRequest request,
List<FileItem> sessionFiles) throws UploadActionException {
String response = "";
userNumber = request.getParameter("userNumber");
File f = new File(ConfAppServer.getRealContextPath() + "/edoc/"
+ userNumber);
if (f.mkdir()) {
System.out.println("Directory Created");
} else {
System.out.println("Directory is not created");
}
for (FileItem item : sessionFiles) {
if (false == item.isFormField()) {
try {
String extension = item.getName().substring(
item.getName().length() - 3);
File file = null;
file = new File(ConfAppServer.getRealContextPath()
+ "/edoc/"
+ userNumber
+ System.getProperty("file.separator")
+ item.getName().substring(0,
item.getName().length() - 4) + "."
+ extension);
item.write(file);
receivedFiles.put(item.getFieldName(), file);
receivedContentTypes.put(item.getFieldName(),
item.getContentType());
response += "<file-" + cont + "-field>"
+ item.getFieldName() + "</file-" + cont
+ "-field>\n";
response += "<file-" + cont + "-name>" + item.getName()
+ "</file-" + cont + "-name>\n";
response += "<file-" + cont + "-size>" + item.getSize()
+ "</file-" + cont + "-size>\n";
response += "<file-" + cont + "-type>"
+ item.getContentType() + "</file-" + cont
+ "type>\n";
} catch (Exception e) {
throw new UploadActionException(e);
}
}
}
ZipUtils appZip = new ZipUtils(userNumber + ".zip",
ConfAppServer.getRealContextPath() + "/edoc/" + userNumber);
appZip.generateFileList(new File(ConfAppServer.getRealContextPath()
+ "/edoc/" + userNumber));
appZip.zipIt(userNumber + ".zip");
f.delete();
removeSessionFileItems(request);
return "<response>\n" + response + "</response>\n";
}
Here you can find my ZipUtils class.
When I try to delete my folder, nothing happens. The delete() method doesn't work. Help me please!!
My question is how to add folder to zip and then delete this folder.
Use java.nio.file. You won't have the hassle of manipulating the ZIP API yourself:
final Path pathToZip = Paths.get("path", "to", "your", "zip");
final URI uri = URI.create("jar:" + pathToZip.toUri());
final Map<String, ?> env = Collections.singletonMap("create", "true");
try (
final FileSystem fs = FileSystems.getFileSystem(uri, env);
) {
// write files into the zip here.
// See javadoc for java.nio.file.Files and FileSystem.getPath()
}
More details on how to use the API here.
I have a linux java program that is reading and writing to a CIFS mounted Windows file share. See code snippet at bottom.
After execution, there are files named "cifs*" left in the directory. If the target directory is on the local file system, the code works like a champ. However, if the target directory is a CIFS mounted Windows file share, I get the left-over files. I'm not sure what configuration changes I need to make to fix. Any help is greatly appreciated.
