Java无法从文件读取

Question

I am writing a Java program that can take user entries and save them into an ArrayList, then use the ArrayList to open a series of webpages. The program should also be able to read in web addresses from a file. This is where I'm having issues.

I'm currently gettting: The file bills.txt was not found. //the file is in my src folder

Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NullPointerException
    at PayBills.main(PayBills.java:92) //this is when the BufferdReader is closed

This isn't homework but the program shares concepts with a homework I am about to do, so I don't want to change anything fundamental about how I'm reading in the text. Any advice is appreciated!

import java.io.*;
import java.util.ArrayList;

    public class PayBills implements Serializable
    {
        /*The purpose of this program is to assist the user in opening a series of webpages to
         * pay bills online. The user will be able to save and edit a list of webpages,
         * open the newly created list, or read a list from file.
         */

        }//end of printMenu()

    }//end PayBills

Edit: Ok, the program is no longer crashing because I fixed the NPE, but I am still getting "The file bills.txt was not found.", which is the caught exception. As stated above, the file is located in my src folder so the path should be correct.

Answer 1

If you are just passing the file name, then you have to append the location of the file before reading it

File file = new File(location + filename);

This is how it works if you only pass the filename as the argument to File constructor, it will try to look for the file at /Project/ directory (eg c:/workspace/project/test , if your project name is test and is located at c:/workspace/project)

So in order to pass the correct location you have to specify the complete path of the file that you are trying to read

so create the string location which will hold the location of the folder where the file is and then append the file name

String location = "C:/opt/files/";
String filename = "abc.txt";

File file = new File(location + filename);

This abc.txt should be located at "C:/opt/files/"

Remember I have added drive name because you are trying to run main

but if the same code is running on a server you have to specify the path relative to the root directory where the server is running

String location = "/opt/files/";

If you just pass the file name the code will look for the file in project folder not in the folder where your java class is.

Hope this helps.

Answer 2

If just have to get out of the error for Null Poninter Exception from this to

 finally
                       {
                           inFile.close();
                       }  

to

finally{
         if (inFile!=null){
             inFile.close();
          }
       } 

Answer 3

如果仅提供文件名，请将文件放置在主程序所在的位置，或者将文件名指定为绝对路径，例如c：\\ myBills.txt

Answer 4

If I understand your issue correctly, the problem you're running into is that you're looking in the wrong directory. Java will look for the file relative to your working directory.

For example, if you are executing your program in ~/project and your file is located in ~/foo , you need to pass "..foo/bills.txt" in as your filepath or, equivalently, "~/foo" .

If you are simply using bills.txt to test your program, you can always move it to the directory from which you execute your program.

Answer 5

NullPointerException is throwing because you are trying to close the infile which is still not being instantiated because the exception raised before it could be instantiated within your try-catch block. So You should change:

finally
{
     inFile.close();
} 

To

finally
{
        try
        {
          if(infile!=null)
          inFile.close();
        }catch(Exception ee){}

}

After your NPE is resolved. Here is the way that you could access your "Bill.txt" file. Use this code instead:

fr = new FileReader(new File(System.getProperty("home.dir"), filename));

Here may not be THE solution, but could probably use some of it, the JFileChoser, a see how it's moves through the Stream, hope it helps at all.

import java.util.ArrayList;
import javax.swing.*;
import java.io.*;

public class TriArrayList {

  static ArrayList<String> arr = new ArrayList<String>();

  public static void imprimer(){
  System.out.println (arr);
  }

  public static void tri(){
  for (int i=0; i+1 < arr.size(); i++) {
     int a = arr.get(i).compareTo(arr.get(i+1));
        if (a > 0) {
            String b = arr.get(i);
            arr.set(i, arr.get(i+1));
            arr.set(i+1, b);
            if (i != 0)
                i -= 2;
        }  
  }
