Try splitting the file into parts, then working on each part one at a time?

Read in the file... Then convert the data into a Java string:
cfset jstrFileData = CreateObject( java, java.lang.String ).Init(
strFileData ) /
Java strings are MUCH faster and MUCH more powerful in terms of regular
expressions you might need.
You can even split the java string into an array
I have a file that I am doing a ton of parsing on.
May be CF_REextract could help you:

Rob,
I just put some testing together over lunch:

I was comparing CFHttp to Java input for speed. It doesn't sound like you
can use query-type data... But you might want to take a look at the
I have rewritten this procedure using the java string as opposed to listgetat,
and let me tell you this thing is lightning fast. I couldn't even get this
thing to run before, now it's faster than it ever was. Thanks for the help.
Rob,
Anytime my man. Always glad to help :)

I reckon you'll be needing a Java CFX then.
Seemed like a fun 5 minute project so here ya go.

public void processRequest( Request request, Response response )

IMHO this little square making trouble might be an ASCII null character.
A null character is a byte with 0 value. Although it is a standard character in the ASCII code,
CF will treat it as an end of string. That would explain why your text gets truncated.
So you might check if indeed there are

If you're still having trouble, instead of CFFILE, try this
cfsavecontent variable=myDoc.
cfinclude template=myDoc.txt
/cfsavecontent
Now parse your file.

if you output the content of the file in your cf template (prior to db
insert) does it display the whole thing? If so, are you using
cfqueryparam?
I am trying to use CFFILE to parse a text file, put the
contents in a
var and then insert that into a db.
However, the file only gets parsed
I've run into this before.CF is actually opening the file correctly,
but there's a null character, and CF uses null terminated strings, so it
sees that and thinks the string is done.
At least, that's my best guess.
I've never found a way to fix this in CF, unfortunately.
