Read TXT File

[decisor]

Hi,

Can I read a txt file outside JAR File? How?
Could give me an example?

If possible give me example of how to read outside JAR file (if it is possible, of course) and inside JAR file.


I try to use BufferedReader, but it is not recognised.

What I really want to do is read lines of a txt file and place them in a ChoiceGroup Item.

For example I have this txt file:

myTxt.txt

10
20
30

Then in my mobile application I want that lines appears as a ChoiceGroup for the user.

Any help would be great...



Thanks

Hi,

if ur device supports JSR - 75 then u will be able to read it using fileconnection.
Here is a documentation of how to use fileconnection

Regarding jar file here is an example

hi decisor,

because you don't have advanced sdk string utils you can rely simply on String class methods,
see that thread:
http://forum.java.sun.com/thread.jsp...hreadID=646861
for sample on how to parse text data into array (that is after you read resource file),
also consider using simpler data format (use some separator like | isntead of newlines chars which can confuse your code at runtime (you can have different newline chars depending on system and text editor),

hth,
