A part of my application writes data to a .csv file in the following way:
public class ExampleWriter {
public static final int COUNT = 10_000;
public static final String FILE = "test.csv";
public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception {
try (OutputStream os = new FileOutputStream(FILE)){
os.write(239);
os.write(187);
os.write(191);
BufferedWriter writer = new BufferedWriter(new OutputStreamWriter(os, StandardCharsets.UTF_8));
for (int i = 0; i < COUNT; i++) {
writer.write(Integer.toString(i));
writer.newLine();
}
} catch (IOException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
System.out.println(checkLineCount(COUNT, new File(FILE)));
}
public static String checkLineCount(int expectedLineCount, File file) throws Exception {
BufferedReader expectedReader = new BufferedReader(new FileReader(file));
try {
int lineCount = 0;
while (expectedReader.readLine() != null) {
lineCount++;
}
if (expectedLineCount == lineCount) {
return "correct";
} else {
return "incorrect";
}
}
finally {
expectedReader.close();
}
}
}
The file will be opened in excel and all kind of languages are present in the data. The os.write
parts are for prefixing the file with a byte order mark as to enable all kinds of characters.
Somehow the amount of lines in the file do not match the count in the loop and I can not figure out how. Any help on what I am doing wrong here would be greatly appreciated.
