    Default help

    Hi,
    I am trying to read a 40M txt file into a charSequence and i get the following Error
    outOfMemory

    class FileRead
    {
    public static void main(String args[])
    {
    try{
    // Open the file that is the first
    // command line parameter
    FileInputStream fstream = new FileInputStream("textfile.txt");
    // Get the object of DataInputStream
    DataInputStream in = new DataInputStream(fstream);
    BufferedReader br = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(in));
    String strLine;
    //Read File Line By Line
    while ((strLine = br.readLine()) != null) {
    // Print the content on the console
    System.out.println (strLine);
    }
    //Close the input stream
    in.close();
    }catch (Exception e){//Catch exception if any
    System.err.println("Error: " + e.getMessage());
    }
    }
    }

    how can i read it into charSequence line by line?

    thanks

    When posting code, don't forget the code or highlight tags to preserve formatting. Look at other posts for examples of how to use them.

    Read this: Lesson: Basic I/O (The Java™ Tutorials > Essential Classes)

    PS- A more meaningful subject title wouldn't have hurt. People tend to skip over generic titles like this one.

    I believe that either you need to use random access to keep the memory profile low or just chuck the JVM some more memory at startup.

    -Xmx 256m
