Split text and store it in arraylist [ problem with code]

Feb 23rd, 2008

Hello,

Im trying to implement a program which will split a text file and then parses the elements to an arraylist.
My text file looks like that:

My program is that:

If anyone could help me completing my program/clarifying errors it 'd be grateful !

Re: Split text and store it in arraylist [ problem with code]

It appears you have the wrong case on your ArrayList...

Customer.add( s);

...should read...

customer.add(s);

...Also, you may want to declare your ArrayList like this...

ArrayList <Customer> custlist = new ArrayList <Customer>();

...then change the other line to this...

custlist.add(s);

okay i did that, thanks.
but my main concern is how can i make it sure that it will parse correctly all the elements from the text.

Re: Split text and store it in arraylist [ problem with code]

Feb 24th, 2008

I started to reply yesterday, then decided I would wait to see if someone more knowledgeable replied first since I have not used StringTokenizer much, so code that looks a little odd to me might in fact be correct and I didn't want to say something that may work would not work. No one else has replied yet, so with the disclaimer that I'm not very knowledgeable about StringTokenizer, here goes:

It seems to me that each Customer has five lines of data, with one data attribute per line in the input file. Relevant information about each Customer is after the first colon in each line of the input file. Thus I think you want to have five BufferedReader.readLine commands for each Customer. After reading in a line, throw out everything up through and including the first colon, then do whatever you need to do to convert the String data that is left into the data format that you want for the constructor. Then when you have all five pieces of data the way they need to be, call the Customer constructor, then add that Customer to the ArrayList.

So, again with the disclaimer that I have limited experience using StringTokenizer, I see nothing in you code that throws away everything up through the first colon in every line, and it looks like your are reading one line per Customer, not five. It's not clear to me whether your intent is to execute this line only once per Customer:

 Java Syntax (Toggle Plain Text) 
while (null != (line = in.readLine()))
while (null != (line = in.readLine()))

but I think:

 Help with Code Tags 
 Java Syntax (Toggle Plain Text) 
line = in.readLine ()
line = in.readLine ()

needs to occur five times per Customer, not once.

Okay thanks for the reply

Can you give a look to it ?

You still have the same problem, I believe. You are reading one line of data from the file and trying to extract five piece of information from that one line. You can't do that, regardless of how you parse that line. You can't extract a date from a String that only contains a name. I think you need to do this for EACH Customer:

 Help with Code Tags 
 Java Syntax (Toggle Plain Text) 
line = in.readLine();
// code to extract name data from "line"
line = in.readLine();
// code to extract cust. # data from "line"
line = in.readLine();
// code to postal code data from "line"
line = in.readLine();
// code to telephone number data from "line"
line = in.readLine();
// code to extract last modified data from "line"
 
 
// call Customer constructor with above extracted data
// add Customer from above to ArrayList
line = in.readLine();
// code to extract name data from "line"
line = in.readLine();
// code to extract cust. # data from "line"
line = in.readLine();
// code to postal code data from "line"
line = in.readLine();
// code to telephone number data from "line"
line = in.readLine();
// code to extract last modified data from "line"


// call Customer constructor with above extracted data
// add Customer from above to ArrayList

Whether you use StringTokenizer to parse "line" is up to you. There is more than one way. Regardless of how, you need to call readLine five times per Customer, create the new Customer with the data extracted, then add that new Customer to the Array List.

VernonDozier is correct, you'll have to read each line separately before attempting to parse its data. StringTokenizer is also considered a legacy class. You should use String.split() or java.util.regex classes instead. You'll need a regex pattern for either one, since your delimiter of ":" also appears in your time values and thus a simple delimeter of ":" will cause those values to get split up and you'll have to merge them back. The Pattern for each of your items is very simple, so either of these methods would work fine

String line = "Last modified: Jan 11, 2007 8:10:05 PM GMT";
 
// using regex Pattern and Matcher
Pattern lastModifiedPattern = Pattern.compile("Last modified: (.*)");
Matcher lastModifiedMatcher = lastModifiedPattern.matcher(line);
if (lastModifiedMatcher.matches()){
    System.out.println("result: "+lastModifiedMatcher.group(1));
}
 
// using String.split()
if (line.matches("Last modified: (.*)")){
    System.out.println("result: "+line.split("Last modified:")[1]);
}
String line = "Last modified: Jan 11, 2007 8:10:05 PM GMT";

Pattern lastModifiedPattern = Pattern.compile("Last modified: (.*)");
Matcher lastModifiedMatcher = lastModifiedPattern.matcher(line);
if (lastModifiedMatcher.matches()){
    System.out.println("result: "+lastModifiedMatcher.group(1));
}

// using String.split()
if (line.matches("Last modified: (.*)")){
    System.out.println("result: "+line.split("Last modified:")[1]);
}

Well, not quite there yet, as I'm sure you noticed if you ran it. Look at the example code I posted with the Matcher. The portion of the match that you want to capture is returned by lastModifiedMatcher.group(1). Group(0) contains the entire text that match the pattern. Group(1) contains the first match group, which is what you want to isolate. Read the API doc on Matcher for more info, but in your case group(1) will return the piece you need.
