I have a program reading from a text file (currently 653 lines long) all separated by a comma. But when I go to save the file to a new location, it only saves 490 lines. It also seems that the last line in the newly created text file is cut in half. Any ideas on what might be the problem?
Here is the code that I used to open and sort the data in the list:
try { scanner = new Scanner(file); // Put the database into an array and // Make sure each String array is 13 in length while (scanner.hasNext()) { line = scanner.nextLine(); word = line.split(","); if (word.length < 13) { String[] word2 = {"","","","","","","","","","","","",""}; for (int i = 0; i < word.length; i++) { word2[i] = word[i]; } dataBaseArray.add(word2); } else { dataBaseArray.add(word); } } } catch (FileNotFoundException exc) { JOptionPane.showMessageDialog(this, "File cannot be found.", "error finding file", JOptionPane.ERROR_MESSAGE); } // Splitting the database into vacant numbers/dead lines/vacant cubicles for (int i = 0; i < dataBaseArray.size(); i++) { if (dataBaseArray.get(i)[8].equals("VACANT")) { vacantNums.add(dataBaseArray.get(i)); } else if (dataBaseArray.get(i)[4].equals("DEAD")) { deadLines.add(dataBaseArray.get(i)); } else if (dataBaseArray.get(i)[6].equals("") && dataBaseArray.get(i)[7].equals("")) { vacantCubs.add(dataBaseArray.get(i)); } else if (dataBaseArray.get(i)[7].equals("")) { people.add(dataBaseArray.get(i)); } else { people.add(dataBaseArray.get(i)); } } // Resetting the DB Array to put the values back in it dataBaseArray = new ArrayList<>(); // Ordering the arrays I want them to appear in the list // Orering the people to appear in alphabetical order Collections.sort(people, new Comparator<String[]>() { @Override public int compare(String[] strings, String[] otherStrings) { return strings[7].compareTo(otherStrings[7]); } }); // Put the people in the DB Array for (int i = 0; i < people.size(); i++) { dataBaseArray.add(people.get(i)); } // Put the vacant numbers in the AB Array for (int i = 0; i < vacantNums.size(); i++) { dataBaseArray.add(vacantNums.get(i)); } // Put the vacant cubicles in the AB Array for (int i = 0; i < vacantCubs.size(); i++) { dataBaseArray.add(vacantCubs.get(i)); } // Put the dead lines in the AB Array for (int i = 0; i < deadLines.size(); i++) { dataBaseArray.add(deadLines.get(i)); } list = new String[dataBaseArray.size()]; // Add the DB Array to the list for (int i = 0; i < list.length; i++) { if (dataBaseArray.get(i)[8].equals("VACANT")) { list[i] = "VACANT"; } else if (dataBaseArray.get(i)[4].equals("DEAD")) { list[i] = "DEAD"; } else if (dataBaseArray.get(i)[6].equals("") && dataBaseArray.get(i)[7].equals("")) { list[i] = "Vacant Cubicle"; } else if (dataBaseArray.get(i)[7].equals("")) { list[i] = dataBaseArray.get(i)[6]; } else { list[i] = dataBaseArray.get(i)[7] + ", " + dataBaseArray.get(i)[6]; } } // Populate the list lstAdvance.setListData(list); Here is what I used to save the file:
try { saveFile = new FileWriter("Save Location"); String newLine = System.getProperty("line.separator"); for (int i = 0; i < dataBaseArray.size(); i++) { for (int j = 0; j < dataBaseArray.get(i).length; j++) { saveFile.append(dataBaseArray.get(i)[j] + ","); } saveFile.append(newLine); } } catch (IOException exc) { JOptionPane.showMessageDialog(this,"error", "error", JOptionPane.ERROR_MESSAGE); }
