Reading in a file

[JTan]

Hi all,

I am trying to read in a file into my program and the following is my codes.

When I compile and run teh program, the program just hangs there. I wonder if there is anything wrong with my codes below. Pls advise.

===========================================================
File inputFile = new File("jobfile.txt"
FileInputStream file = new FileInputStream(inputFile);
BufferedReader stdin = new BufferedReader (new InputStreamReader (System.in));

StringTokenizer reader = new StringTokenizer (stdin.readLine());

Your code :

stdin.readLine());

reads the line from the console, line by line. So once it reads a line, as far as it is concerned, its job is done. If you were using a BufferedReader to read a file or IO, you need to have something like :

BufferedReader br = // ... instantiate
String line = "";
while ((line = br.readLine()) != null) {
System.out.println(line);
}
