how to put a newline or a Enter character...

[pvumesh]

ok.. i have this peice of code wherein the bufer contents are written in the file located in C:\\mobinfo.txt

case EGetCellId:

buf.SetLength(0);
if(iCellID().iCountryCode.Length()<(buf.MaxLength()-buf.Length()))
{

// buf.Append(_L("MCC: "));
// buf.Append(iCellID().iCountryCode);
buf.AppendFormat(_L("MCC: [%d]"),iCellID().iCountryCode);
//buf.Append(_L("MNC: "));
//buf.Append(iCellID().iNetworkIdentity);
buf.AppendFormat(_L("MNC: [%d]"),iCellID().iNetworkIdentity);

buf.AppendFormat(_L("LAC:[%d]"),iCellID().iLocationAreaCode);
buf.AppendFormat(_L(" CI:[%d]"),iCellID().iCellId);
}
else
buf.Append(_L("increase size of buf in CMobInfo::RunL"));

LogToFile(buf);
informationNote->ExecuteLD(buf);

break;
case ENotifyCellIdChange:

buf.SetLength(0);
if(iCellID().iCountryCode.Length()<(buf.MaxLength()-buf.Length()))
{
/*
buf.Append(_L("MCC: "));
buf.Append(iCellID().iCountryCode);
buf.Append(_L("MNC: "));
buf.Append(iCellID().iNetworkIdentity);
*/
buf.AppendFormat(_L("LAC:[%d]"),iCellID().iLocationAreaCode);
buf.AppendFormat(_L(" CI:[%d]"),iCellID().iCellId);
LogToFile(buf);
iRequest = ENoMobInfoRequest;
IssueRequest(ENotifyCellIdChange);
return;
}
else
buf.Append(_L("increase size of buf in CMobInfo::RunL"));

LogToFile(buf);
informationNote->ExecuteLD(buf);

break;

This is the problem that i have....

1. when it gets printed in the txt file i want it to print in this format..

LAC:[value] CI:[value]
LAC:[value] CI:[value]
....
....
but the problem is that it goes on printing serially.....i tried putting \n and \r but doesnt seem to work...
plz if anyone can help me out with this 1..

Thanks.

hey thanks,
i think it has worked out but maybe not that perfect coz.. when opened with notepad it shows the following o/p

LAC:[1107] CI:[35421LAC:[1107] CI:[35421LAC:[1107] CI:[40942LAC:[1107] CI:[35421LAC:[1107] CI:[16283LAC:[1107] CI:[35421LAC:[1107] CI:[40942

and when the same file is read with wordpad it shows the following o/p..

LAC:[1107] CI:[35421
LAC:[1107] CI:[35421
LAC:[1107] CI:[40942
LAC:[1107] CI:[35421
LAC:[1107] CI:[16283
LAC:[1107] CI:[35421
LAC:[1107] CI:[40942

either cases... the last closing square bracket seems to be missing...
whats the reason for that ?

If you want to write to the file, you cannot use '\f' because Notepad or Wordpad will not recognize it. This character is used in several S60 UI components only.

That's why, my suggestion is to differentiate the method that writes to the file and the UI.

Windows uses \r\n IIRC, so that should defenitely work in wordpad and notepad

[amitkankani]

right we need to append both "\r\n" to get it workin in notepad...

Thanks man...
finally got the stuff to work...
Actually what i developing is that the symbian application goes on putting the cellids in to the file... then the J2ME appliaton reads it and put is graphically onto the city map... so needed a bit of perfection in reading file.
Anyways,
Thanks once again.
