Dear Matt,thanks for your example. It works fine, but does not solve my problem. I use a Binary File Reader to read a file from my local disk. The Binary File Reader reads a local file path or URL and outputs an array of bytes. No matter what file I want to read, the array size is exactly 20 000 (bytes). I attached a small sample workflow to demonstrate this. It simply reads a file (in my testcase this file is about 40 MB) and displays the length of the resulting Byte Array.
Do you have any idea why this behaviour occurs and can your reproduce it? Kind regards, Stefan Am 2012-05-21 19:05, schrieb Matt Jones:
I also took a look, and tried a larger array -- the attached workflow processes 30K integers through an array and back out again, and works fine. So there isn't an inherent limit at 20K elements. So I'm not quite sure what's happening with yours, but maybe this will help to debug.MattOn Mon, May 21, 2012 at 8:32 AM, Christopher Brooks <[email protected] <mailto:[email protected]>> wrote:HI Stefan, A quick search of the web shows no apparent limits. A more complete test case would help. The way I would approach this is by splitting up the problem into first just reading the data and being sure that worked and then adding more like encoding. _Christopher On 5/21/12 9:20 AM, Stefan Proell wrote: Dear Mailing list, I wrote my own Actor which I need in order to encode binary files via Base64 and pass the resulting encoded String to a REST Service. I feed the binary file with a BinaryFileReader-Actor to my encoding Actor and cast the Token to an Array, as I found no other solution to receive the bytes from the file. I then use a standard (and also deprecated) method for encoding the file first to Base64 and then send it through some URL-safe encoding. The method looks like this: @Override public void fire() throws IllegalActionException { super.fire(); // Read file from InputPort and convert to a ByteArray ArrayToken inputToken = (ArrayToken) inputPort.get(0); byte[] inputBytes = ArrayToken.arrayTokenToUnsignedByteArray(inputToken); // Encoding String encode = new String(Base64.encodeBase64(inputBytes)); String encodedString = java.net.URLEncoder.encode(encode); output.send(0, new StringToken(encodedString)); } My problem is that the encoded file is truncated by the actor and hence not usable for further processing. There seems to be a limit of 20 000 array elements (bytes), which is not sufficient for my purpose. Does anyone have an idea why the file is chopped off after 20k letters?
