troubles with loadStream
« on: Sep 18th, 2003, 10:06pm » |

I'm having a problem with the loadStream function. After cut-and-pasting the code from the reference entry, I'm getting an error telling me loadStream can throw the "java.io.IOException" exception, and I have to catch it. Here's my code, which is in setup():
InputStream input = loadStream("2.data");
InputStreamReader isr = new InputStreamReader(input);
BufferedReader reader = new BufferedReader(isr);
while ((line = reader.readLine()) != null) {
//do stuff with line here
}
I can't use loadStrings because of the size of my data set. Do I need to catch the exception or am I using the function incorrectly?

for any sort of java i/o stuff like this you'll need to put
try {
at the beginning
and
} catch (IOException e) {
println("problem while reading"); // you're descriptive error msg
e.printStackTrace();
}
after all that. loadStrings insulates you from it, but the regular java i/o you'll have to catch the exception.
