embedded system project in which i will get some response from my microcontroller to android device using bluetooth module and i cant get the bytes from this line bytes = "mmInStream.read(buffer)"..
when i convert the byte[] buffer into String using this
String data=new String(bytes) I dont get data that i had sent from my microcontroller properly. Sometimes charactors are missing..
public void run() {
Log.i(TAG, "BEGIN mConnectedThread");
byte[] buffer = new byte[1024];
int bytes;
// Keep listening to the InputStream while connected
while (true) {
try {
// Read from the InputStream
bytes = mmInStream.read(buffer);
String data=new String(bytes);
System.out.println(data);
// Send the obtained bytes to the UI Activity
} catch (IOException e) {
Log.e(TAG, "disconnected", e);
connectionLost();
break;
}
}
}
Please Help me
Try to use BufferedReader instead.
It reads text from a character-input stream, buffering characters so
as to provide for the efficient reading of characters, arrays, and
lines.
If you use Java 7 or older the following code will help:
try (BufferedReader reader = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(mmInStream))){
String line = null;
while((line = reader.readLine()) != null) {
System.out.println(line);
}
connectionLost();
} catch(IOException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
If you use Java 6 or younger than use this code:
BufferedReader reader = null;
try {
reader = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(mmInStream));
String line = null;
while ((line = reader.readLine()) != null) {
System.out.println(line);
}
} catch (IOException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
} finally {
if (reader != null) {
try {
reader.close();
} catch (IOException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
}
connectionLost();
}
But this approach has disadvantages. You can read about them, e.g. here

through an API I get an array with a lot of different data. But I only need the last element.
The variable sb has the array in it. But i cannot access elements like that: sb[0] (for example)
If I print the variable sb it looks like that:
{"data":[[[1583596801195,279.52],[1583596814340,279.52],[1583596815535,279.44563849372383],[1583596816730,279.2060000000001],[1583596913525,279.2060000000001],[1583596914720,279.28824435146447],[1583596915915,279.52],[1583597211080,279.52],[1583597212275,279.52000000000004],[1583597213470,279.52],[1583597609015,279.52],[1583597610210,279.5199999999999],[1583597707005,279.5199999999999],[1583597708200,279.52000000000004],[1583597709395,279.52],[1583597806190,279.52],[1583597807385,279.52000000000004],[1583597993805,279.52000000000004]]]}
In this case, I only need the last element (279.52000000000004).
My code look like that:
URL url = new URL("the URL i get the data from");
HttpURLConnection con = (HttpURLConnection) url.openConnection();
con.setRequestMethod("GET");
InputStream instream = con.getInputStream();
BufferedReader reader = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(instream));
StringBuilder sb = new StringBuilder();
String line = null;
try {
while ((line = reader.readLine()) != null) {
sb.append(line + "\n");
}
} catch (IOException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
} finally {
try {
instream.close();
} catch (IOException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
}
System.out.println(sb);
Sorry I am not experienced that experienced with programming. But I would really appreciate if someone could help me.
Thank you for your help.
If you need the last element only, you should not be appending the results.
Instead, replace the previous value stored.
String result = null;
String line = null;
try {
while ((line = reader.readLine()) != null) {
//sb.append(line + "\n");
result = line; // not appending, but replacing
}
} catch (IOException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
} finally {
try {
instream.close();
} catch (IOException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
}
System.out.println(result);
You can try this, replace this line "System.out.println(sb) with below code :
String s = new String(sb);
String d[] = s.split(",");
System.out.println(d[d.length -1].replaceAll("]", ""));
This would print the exact data you want i.e 279.52000000000004
I've created a Huffman coding algorithm, and then I wrote binary code in String and put it in binary file using FileOutputStream and DataOutputStream.
But now I cant understand how to read it? I need to get 1 and 0 sequence from binary file.
There is no method like .readString() in DataInputStream
try{
FileChooser fileChooser = new FileChooser();
fileChooser.getExtensionFilters().add(new FileChooser.ExtensionFilter("Binary", "*.bin"));
FileOutputStream fileOutputStream = new FileOutputStream(fileChooser.showSaveDialog(window));
DataOutputStream outputStream = new DataOutputStream(fileOutputStream);
outputStream.writeChars(Main.string_ready_encode);
}catch (IOException e){
e.printStackTrace();
}
Main.string_ready_encode contains ready sequence
The problem with your writing code is that you have specified no file format. We now can only read the file if we know how many bytes it has. If you do know that, you can read it by doing the following:
try (DataInputStream stream = new DataInputStream(new FileInputStream(f))) {
byte[] bytes = new byte[NUMBER_OF_BYTES];
stream.read(bytes);
String content = new String(bytes);
System.out.println(content);
} catch (IOException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
But I would actually advise you to rewrite you file with some known file format, like so:
try (Writer writer = new OutputStreamWriter(new FileOutputStream(f), Charsets.UTF_8)) {
writer.write(Main.stringReadyEncode, 0, Main.stringReadyEncode.length());
} catch (IOException x) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
And read it like you would read any other file:
try (BufferedReader r = Files.newBufferedReader(f.toPath(), Charsets.UTF_8)) {
String line;
while((line = r.readLine()) != null) {
// do whatever you want with line
System.out.println(line);
}
} catch (IOException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
Just make sure to replace Charsets.UTF_8 with whatever encoding you used while writing to the file.
I have tried two snippets of Java 1.7 code:
Snippet 1:
try {
BufferedReader in = new BufferedReader(
new InputStreamReader(myInputStream)); //from the Internet
String s;
out = new PrintWriter(new BufferedWriter(new FileWriter("file")));
while ((s = in.readLine()) != null){
out.write (s);
}
in.close();
out.close();
} catch (Exception e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
Snippet 2:
try {
BufferedInputStream in = new BufferedInputStream(
myInputStream); //from the Internet
out = new BufferedOutputStream(new FileOutputStream("file"));
byte[] data = new byte[1024]; // 1 Kb randomly chosen as my buffer
int len=0;
while ((len=in.read(data)) != -1) {
out.write(data,0,len);
}
in.close();
out.close();
} catch (Exception e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
Snippet 1 seems to perform approximately 2 to 6 times faster than snippet 2. However, I need to use Snippet 2 because I am reading a byte stream. Is there any way to improve the performance of snippet 2 so that it more closely matches snippet 1? Am I doing something wrong?
I'm performing certain commands through command prompt and storing the values in a text file.
wmic logicaldisk where drivetype=3 get deviceid > drive.txt
Now I want to read the string stored in the text file from my java file. When I try to do this:
try {
File file = new File("drive.txt");
FileReader reader = new FileReader(file);
BufferedReader in = new BufferedReader(reader);
int i=0;
while ((string[i] = in.readLine()) != null) {
System.out.println(string[i]);
++i;
}
in.close();
} catch (IOException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
I get the output as follows:
ÿþD[]E[]V[]I[]C[]E[]
how to avoid this?
while ((string[i] = in.readLine()) != null) {
System.out.println(string[2]);
}
over there you are missing the i++;
However I would advise you to use this structure: Use a ArrayList instead of an array, since this allows you to have a self-resizing structure, also instead in the while use the method ready(); from the BufferedRead in order to check the end from the document, at the end the for it's just to display the elements in String ArrayList.
ArrayList<String> string = new ArrayList<String>();
try {
File file = new File("drive.txt");
BufferedReader entrada;
entrada = new BufferedReader(new FileReader(file));
entrada.readLine();
while (entrada.ready()) {
string.add(entrada.readLine());
}
entrada.close();
} catch (IOException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
for (String elements : string) {
System.out.println(elements);
}
Why do you need a string array here? The size of the array may be wrong? Simply use a string instead of array. I tried this and works fine for me:
try {
String string;
File file = new File("drive.txt");
FileReader reader = new FileReader(file);
BufferedReader in = new BufferedReader(reader);
int i = 0;
while ((string = in.readLine()) != null) {
System.out.println(string);
++i;
}
in.close();
} catch (IOException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
If you are using eclipse IDE, change the encoding type. Go to Edit->Set Encoding-> Others->UTF-8.
I was wondering how do you manipulate big Textfiles in Java, if we assume that the Filesize is larger than the memory. I googled that topic and it shows that most people recommend java.niofor such a task.
Unfortunately I haven't found any documentation on how to manipulate the File. For example read every Line, modify it, write it. I tried something like this, but this doesn't work:
FileChannel fileChannel = null;
try {
fileChannel = new RandomAccessFile(file, "rw").getChannel();
ByteBuffer buffer = ByteBuffer.allocate(256);
while (fileChannel.read(buffer) != -1) {
buffer.rewind();
buffer.flip();
String nextLine = buffer.asCharBuffer().toString();
if (replaceBackSlashes) {
nextLine = nextLine.replace("\\\\", "/");
}
if (!(removeEmptyLines && StringUtils.isEmpty(nextLine))) {
buffer.flip();
buffer.asCharBuffer().put(nextLine);
}
buffer.clear();
}
} catch (Exception e) {
// TODO Auto-generated catch block
e.printStackTrace();
} finally {
if (fileChannel != null) {
try {
fileChannel.close();
} catch (IOException e) {
// TODO Auto-generated catch block
e.printStackTrace();
}
}
}
So what are your recommendations? Also the String nextline, doesn't match anything in my File. Maybe I need to set the encoding?
Line by line. Something like this ...
public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception {
File someFile = new File("someFile.txt");
File temp = File.createTempFile(someFile.getName(), null);
BufferedReader reader = null;
PrintStream writer = null;
try {
reader = new BufferedReader(new FileReader(someFile));
writer = new PrintStream(temp);
String line;
while ((line = reader.readLine())!=null) {
// manipulate line
writer.println(line);
}
}
finally {
if (writer!=null) writer.close();
if (reader!=null) reader.close();
}
if (!someFile.delete()) throw new Exception("Failed to remove " + someFile.getName());
if (!temp.renameTo(someFile)) throw new Exception("Failed to replace " + someFile.getName());
}
Kudos to xagyg for a nice, clean answer! The following just didn't fit into a comment:
If you're running Java 7 already, you can save a lot of boilerplate code by using try-with-resources for the processing loop:
File source = ...
File target = ...
try (BufferedReader in = new BufferedReader(new FileReader(source));
PrintStream out = new PrintStream(target)) {
String line;
while ((line = in.readLine()) != null) {
// manipulate line
out.println(line);
}
}
// no catch or finally clause!
No more of that initalize-to-null-try-catch-finally-close-if-not-null mess, Java will take care of that for you now. Less code, less potential to forget or screw up that crucial call to close().
