[android-beginners] Re: IOException with BufferedReader
Hi Yousuf,
Thank you very much for the answer. However, I don't know in which
directory i should put the file? I don't want to save the file from my
application - it should just be there when the application is
installed. I don't think I can access this file with the
context.openFileInput() method? Or am I wrong?

You cannot use the regular java IO for res/raw. folder.
only if you are using /sd/card you can use regular java.io
here is some code that might help you
FileInputStream fin = context.openFileInput(sitestore);
InputStreamReader br = new InputStreamReader(fin);
String readString = ;
int i;
while((i = br.read()) != -1){
inputBuffer = (char)i;
readString = readString + inputBuffer;

Hi,
I have a problem when I'm trying to read a file from the res/raw

for line with a BufferedReader, I get an IOException when I'm calling
the br.readLine(). I do no get any additional information in the
exception.
Are there anything wrong with this code:
private void readFile(InputStream mFile) {
DataInputStream in = new DataInputStream(mFile);
BufferedReader br = new BufferedReader(new
InputStreamReader(in));
String strLine;
while ((strLine = br.readLine()) != null) {
Log.i(line, strLine);

Thank you very much!

[android-beginners] Re: IOException with BufferedReader
Hi again,
I've just tried putting a simple file with the Hello, world text
into the raw folder, and this works as it should. The other file is
1.1 megabyte. Can the error be caused because of the size?

Hi Kaloer,
The procedure is as follows:
1. create a raw folder,
2. place a file.(txt or regular file with no extension) in the raw folder.
3.write the code as said earlier.
4 one more thing that you can do is push the file through eclipse's ddms to
data/data/your application dir/files directory.
(Your file in the DDMS will be updated not the one contained in /res/raw/
folder so look for the size of the file present in ddms under
/data/data/com.app.files/files/ )
5 path to be specified: just give the file name that is present in the raw
folder.
if the name of file is sample.txt which is present in /res/raw/ folder
FileInputStream fin = context.openFileInput(sample.txt); // if used within
a adapter class or somewhere outside the activity class
if you are using this within the activity it should be
FileInputStream fin = openFileInput(sample.txt);
I guess step 4 is needed for the first time since your read is performed
before your write.
if you are writing before reading then the FileOutputStream object either
writes to a existing file or creates a new one( FileInputStream object
cannot create a new file).
Do remember that raw folder has a limit to the data that it can contain so
files with large amount of data cant be stored there.
For your convenience I am attaching my filehandling projected that reads and
writes to file. This is a working example.
for some reason if this is not working try using permissions.
read_owner_data
write_owner_data
write_external_storage
but these permissions are for files stored on /sdcard/filename
Hope this would help.

Yousuf.

folder.
3.write the code as said earlier.
4 one more thing that you can do is push the file through
eclipse's
ddms
to
data/data/your application dir/files directory.
(Your file in the DDMS will be updated not the one contained in
/res/raw/
folder so look for the size of the file present in ddms under
/data/data/com.app.files/files/ )
5 path to be specified: just give the file name that is present
in
the
raw
folder.
if the name of file is sample.txt which is present in /res/raw/
folder
FileInputStream fin = context.openFileInput(sample.txt); // if
used
within
a adapter class or somewhere outside the activity class
if you are using this within the activity it should be
FileInputStream fin = openFileInput(sample.txt);
I guess step 4 is needed for the first time since your read is
performed
before your write.
if you are writing before reading then the FileOutputStream
object
either
writes to a existing file or creates a new one( FileInputStream
object
cannot create a new file).
Do remember that raw folder has a limit to the data that it can
contain
so
files with large amount of data cant be stored there.
For your convenience I am attaching my filehandling projected
that
reads
and
writes to file. This is a working example.
for some reason if this is not working try using permissions.
read_owner_data
write_owner_data
write_external_storage
but these permissions are for files stored on /sdcard/filename
Hope this would help.

Yousuf.

Hi Yousuf,
Thank you very much for the answer. However, I don't know in
which
directory i should put the file? I don't want to save the file
from
my
application - it should just be there when the application is
installed. I don't think I can access this file with the
context.openFileInput() method? Or am I wrong?

Hi,
You cannot use the regular java IO for res/raw. folder.
only if you are using /sd/card you can use regular java.io
here is some code that might help you
FileInputStream fin = context.openFileInput(sitestore);
InputStreamReader br = new InputStreamReader(fin);
String readString = ;
int i;
while((i = br.read()) != -1){
inputBuffer = (char)i;
readString = readString + inputBuffer;
}
FileOutputStream fOut = context.openFileOutput(sitestore,
context.MODE_WORLD_READABLE);
OutputStreamWriter bw = new OutputStreamWriter(fOut);
write the code for writting to file here...

Yousuf.
