Txtfile search not working
Ok so i have inputted a number of records to a text file and i can both write to and read from this file, but i am now attempting to search through this textfile and have encountered a problem.
package assignmentnew;
// Import io so we can use file objects
import java.io.*;
import java.util.Scanner;
public class SearchProp {
public void Search() throws FileNotFoundException {
try {
String details, input, id, line;
int count;
Scanner user = new Scanner(System.in);
System.out.println();
System.out.println();
System.out.println("Please enter your housenumber: ");
input = user.next();
Scanner housenumber = new Scanner(new File("writeto.txt"));
while (housenumber.hasNext())
{
id = housenumber.next();
line = housenumber.nextLine();
if (input.equals(id))
{
System.out.println("House number is: " + id + "and" + line);
break;
}
if(!housenumber.hasNext()) {
开发者_运维知识库 System.out.println("no house with this number");
}
}
}
catch(IOException e)
{
System.out.print("File failure");
}
}
}
No matter what value i enter i am told that the house number is not present in the file, but obviously it is, any ideas?
Addendum:
File Structure in textfile.
27,Abbey View,Hexham,NE46 1EQ,4,150000,Terraced
34,Peth Head,Hexham,NE46 1DB,3,146000,Semi Detached
10,Downing Street,London,sw19,9,1000000,Terraced
The default delimiter for a scanner is white-space, and not ,
.
You have to use housenumber.useDelimiter(",");
and the code will work.
EDIT: Set it before the while. And that is what I get for example for 27.
Please enter your housenumber:
27
House number is: 27 and ,Abbey View,Hexham,NE46 1EQ,4,150000,Terraced
