Converting InputStream to MappedByteBuffer in java? - java

I'm trying to create a android app.
I use InputStream inputStream=getAssets().open("book.txt"); to read the book.txt ;
I just want get the MappedByteBuffer object from InputStream ;
who konws?
========= ===========
I use FileInputStream fis = (FileInputStream) inputStream; cause an error!
here is the error log:

I had the similar need of doing this. Here is what I did:
1) Open resource file with asset manager and write a regular file to /data/data/com.yourpackage/files directory. Sample code:
private void prepareModelFile() throws IOException {
AssetManager assetManager = getAssets();
String configDir = getFilesDir().getAbsolutePath();
InputStream stream = assetManager.open("mytestfile_in_assets.data");
mTFLiteModelFile = configDir +"/mytestfilename.data";
OutputStream output = new BufferedOutputStream(new FileOutputStream(mTFLiteModelFile));
copyFile(stream, output);
}
public static void copyFile(InputStream in, OutputStream out) throws IOException {
byte[] buffer = new byte[1024];
int read;
while((read = in.read(buffer)) != -1) {
out.write(buffer, 0, read);
}
in.close();;
out.close();
}
2) Now you have the file copied out of assets, you can use the following way to create a MappedByteBuffer. Example:
FileInputStream inputStream = new FileInputStream(mTFLiteModelFile);
FileChannel fileChannel = inputStream.getChannel();
MappedByteBuffer myMappedBuffer = fileChannel.map(FileChannel.MapMode.READ_ONLY, 0, fileChannel.size());
Hope this helps.

To do this you need to first copy your asset to a file and then apply the technique below to a file. If your asset is more than 1MB you will require to split it - Load files bigger than 1M from assets folder
You can't do this with an InputStream. You should instead get a FileInputStream for your book.txt or cast your inputStream and then get a FileChannel from it:
try {
FileInputStream fis = (FileInputStream) inputStream;
FileChannel channel = fis.getChannel();
ByteBuffer buffer = channel.map(FileChannel.MapMode.READ_ONLY, 0, channel.size());
byte[] bytes = new byte[102];
buffer.get(bytes);
System.out.println(new String(bytes));
} catch (IOException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}


You can't do that, for many reasons, most of which imply that the question doesn't make sense.

Spinner problems with Sharedpreferences

Sorry,this is my first time to put questions in this site
My Function: I set two Buttons to restore and save the information in the Spinner and EditText with the function Sharedpreferences.
I execute the program at the first time. The program will appear the error state,if I click the Button "restore" to restore the information in Spinner. But I haven't met the problem when I restore the information in EditText.
This is the code in Spinner
private Spinner.OnItemSelectedListener getfeet = new OnItemSelectedListener() {
#Override
public void onItemSelected(AdapterView<?> parent, View v, int position,
long id) {
// TODO Auto-generated method stub
feet_out = parent.getSelectedItemPosition() + 2;
select_f = feet.getSelectedItemPosition(); //save the position you choose
Toast.makeText(MainActivity.this,
"you chose " + parent.getSelectedItem().toString(),
Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
}
#Override
public void onNothingSelected(AdapterView<?> parent) {
// TODO Auto-generated method stub
}
};
private Spinner.OnItemSelectedListener getinch = new OnItemSelectedListener() {
#Override
public void onItemSelected(AdapterView<?> parent, View v, int position,
long id) {
// TODO Auto-generated method stub
inch_out = parent.getSelectedItemPosition();
select_i = inch.getSelectedItemPosition(); //save the position you choose
Toast.makeText(MainActivity.this,
"you chose " + parent.getSelectedItem().toString(),
Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
}
#Override
public void onNothingSelected(AdapterView<?> parent) {
// TODO Auto-generated method stub
}
};
This is the code which executes the function of save in Sharedpreferences
private void save_() {
settings = getSharedPreferences("DATA", 0);
settings.edit().putInt("DATA_FEET", select_f) //store the position in DATA_FEET and DATA_INCH
.putInt("DATA_INCH", select_i)
.putString("DATA_WEIGHT", weight.getText().toString()).commit();
Toast.makeText(MainActivity.this, R.string.done, Toast.LENGTH_SHORT) //save done
.show();
}
This is the code which executes the function of restore in Sharedpreferences
private void restore_() {
feet.setSelection(settings.getInt("DATA_FEET", select_f)); //restore the position
inch.setSelection(settings.getInt("DATA_INCH", select_i));
weight.setText(settings.getString("DATA_WEIGHT", "EMPTY"));
}
My problem is that I can't use the function of restore at the program executing at the first time. Is there any solution to solve the problem?? Because it is normal in EditText,but it is abnormal in Spinner. Thanks :))
This is the state. :))

restore_();
}
};
After I replaced the select_f and select_i into 0, it appeared the problem

You are using the SharedPrefs wrong.
feet.setSelection(settings.getInt("DATA_FEET", select_f));
when you try to fetch the integer-value from sharedPref, you get returned null! because i think that you misunderstand how it is done:
settings.getInt("myKey", defaultValue);
returns you the value for the key "myKey". if "myKey" has no value set, then it returns you the "defaultValue". In your case it returns the current value of "select_f". And as it looks, the value of select_f is null, when you run your application for the first time.
So you have to decide whether to initialize "select_f" before you retrieve the sharedPrefs or you enter another defaultValue here.

Android iText text extraction

Guys i'm having a problem making this run in android but no problems when i run it in java.
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);
tv = (TextView) findViewById(R.id.txtview);
Button bt = (Button) findViewById(R.id.button1);
am = this.getAssets();
bt.setOnClickListener(new OnClickListener() {
public void onClick(View v) {
// do something when the button is clicked
try {
parsePdf("android.resource://com.example.panalyzer_v1/raw/resume.pdf","android.resource://com.example.panalyzer_v1/raw/resume.txt");
} catch (IOException e) {
// TODO Auto-generated catch block
e.printStackTrace();
}
}
}
);
}
public void parsePdf(String pdf, String txt) throws IOException {
PdfReader reader = new PdfReader(pdf);
PrintWriter out = new PrintWriter(new FileOutputStream(txt));
for (int i = 1; i <= reader.getNumberOfPages(); i++) {
out.println(PdfTextExtractor.getTextFromPage(reader, i));
}
out.flush();
out.close();
}
This code will extract the whole text in the PDF and transfer it in a text file but I do not know if Android can do that.
I think my problem here is the filepathing: parsePdf("assets/Resume.pdf","assets/Resume.txt"); I can't make it work.
I have changed the pathing but the error is not solved. I debugged it and i still got an error:

i know the problem and it is PdfReader reader = new PdfReader(pdf);. Did i get the pathing wrong?
PS:I am a newbie when it comes to debugs. please correct me if its the wrong debug report.
Thank you.

To open an asset file in Android you should use getAssets().open("Resume.txt").

There are 3 solutions that you can try.
Instead of putting the file in assets folder put in a raw folder under res. And use the following path to refer it.
"android.resource://[your_package_name]/raw/Resume.pdf"
Asset folder path should be given like this
file:///android_asset/Resume.pdf
Instead of putting the file in assets folder put it in SD Card and SD card root path can be obtained like this
Environment.getExternalStorageDirectory();

ahh Yes! i solved it. instead of using file path i used:
reader = new PdfReader(getResources().openRawResource(R.raw.resume));

Issue retrieving JSON in Android

I've looked at countless projects and tutorials and haven't been able to figure out why my app is crashing as soon as it is ran. It seems to run fine if i comment out the first line in the try catch "JSONObject dataObject = json.getJSONObject("data");" The JSON that i'm trying to parse is formatted as such:
{"recordcount":3,
"columnlist":"department,emailaddress,firstname,has_photos,job_full_title,job_title,kid,lastname,location,middlename,no_show_photo,phone,school",
"data":
{"department":["Public Safety","Information Technology","Information Technology"],
"emailaddress":["todd.mongeon#wne.edu","amutti#wne.edu","fatemeh.shams#wne.edu"],
"firstname":["Todd","Tony","Toffee"],
"has_photos":["Y","Y","N"],
"job_full_title":["Officer","Director, Administrative Information Systems","Sr.Technical Programmer/Analyst and Integ Specialist"],
"job_title":["Officer","Director, Administrative Information Systems","Sr.Technical Programmer/Analyst and Integ Specialist"],
"kid":[286899,2497,297411],
"lastname":["Mongeon","Mutti","Shams"],
"location":["PS","12 V","12 V"],

I'm probably doing something incredibly stupid here, i'm new to this so give me a break please haha. I appreciate any info that you guys may have for me.
For curiosity sake the end goal is to search the database (first name, last name, school, and department) and put the results into a list view, when clicked on a window will pop up displaying other relevant information with a couple other features.
It seems every example i see the JSON output they receive from the url is formatted much differently, so i'm having trouble getting this done even with the amount of examples available (sorry for re-post).
Once again thank you for any assistance.

Needed to take a sub string of the result returned from the html and pass that into a json object

java.net.UnknownHostException: api.androidhive.info
It looks like your app can't access the network. Have you added:
<uses-permission
android:name="android.permission.INTERNET" />
to your code AndroidManifest.xml?

App is force closing when i run it? Unable to start activity

When i run my app, and i press on a button it force closes. I fixed my Android manifest and i cannot find the problem. Here is the Logcat:

Fix this:
03-07 23:50:41.933: E/AndroidRuntime(5553): android.content.ActivityNotFoundException: Unable to find explicit activity class {izzy.n/izzy.n.main1}; have you declared this activity in your AndroidManifest.xml?
ALSO
Point out which line its complaining about.

A Object in the populateCalendarSpinner() method is null . Please put try catch and debug.
Your log show
03-08 00:16:15.037: E/AndroidRuntime(6173): Caused by: java.lang.NullPointerException
03-08 00:16:15.037: E/AndroidRuntime(6173): at izzy.n.main1.populateCalendarSpinner(main1.java:62)
03-08 00:16:15.037: E/AndroidRuntime(6173): at izzy.n.main1.onCreate(main1.java:52)
Activity not found is the old log. You already fixed it.

if you're sure you declared it, make sure to clean your project. Sometimes Eclipse doesn't realize your XML has changed and is acting on older versions.

<activity android:name="main1"
android:label="#string/app_name"></activity>
should be
<activity android:name="izzy.n.main1"
android:label="#string/app_name"></activity>

<activity android:name="main1"
android:label="#string/app_name"></activity>
Try with changing this to
<activity android:name="izzy.n.main1"
android:label="#string/app_name">
<intent-filter>
<action android:name="android.intent.action.MAIN" />
<category android:name="android.intent.category.DEFAULT" />
</intent-filter>
</activity>
Your log also says NullPointerException in populateCalendarSpinner(); debug and fix that too.
Just do this to debug:
try {
populateCalendarSpinner();
}
catch(NullPointerException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}

writing content in an Excel sheet

I am developing an application in android and I have a requirement to read and write from an excel file stored in sdcard.I am using jxl library for this purpose. But I am getting some errors with file operation.
ext = Environment.getExternalStorageDirectory().getAbsolutePath()+"/hai/dynamic.xls";
setOutputFile(ext);
try {
write();
} catch (WriteException e) {
// TODO Auto-generated catch block
e.printStackTrace();
} catch (IOException e) {
// TODO Auto-generated catch block
e.printStackTrace();
}
}
public void setOutputFile(String inputFile) {
this.inputfile = inputFile;
}
public void write() throws IOException, WriteException {
File file = new File(inputfile);
WorkbookSettings wbSettings = new WorkbookSettings();
wbSettings.setLocale(new Locale("en", "EN"));
WritableWorkbook workbook = Workbook.createWorkbook(file, wbSettings);
workbook.createSheet("Report", 0);
WritableSheet excelSheet = workbook.getSheet(0);
createLabel(excelSheet);
createContent(excelSheet);
workbook.write();
workbook.close();
}
Then I am getting this following error in logcat
