Title: Double byte character not appearing properly when Excel file is downloaded
|
Prem,
You might want to verify your code outside of servlets - i.e
in a simple java program - and then transfer that logic to the
servlets.
I don't think there's anything servlet specific in the error
that you are seeing.
> 1. Generated an excel file in UTF8 converted this file
into UnicodeLittle. The double byte characters appear properly in the excel
>file.
What's the code you used to prove that this
works?

Subject: Double byte character not
appearing properly when Excel file is d ownloaded
Hi,
Am facing problem displaying
double byte character from an excel file in the browser. The following are the
steps done,
1. Generated an excel file in UTF8 converted this file into
UnicodeLittle. The double byte characters appear properly in the excel
file.
2. When I try to download the excel file through a servlet then
the characters are not appearing properly.
This program runs in
NES/NAS(NES in one machine and NAS in another machine; OS -
Solaris)
Please advice what is wrong, and also any round abouts that
has to be followed.
The following is the code used to download the
file
public class ExcelDownload extends HttpServlet
{
public void
service(HttpServletRequest req, HttpServletResponse res) throws
ServletException, IOException
{
try
{
String fileName1 =
System.getProperty( "GX.path.class" ) +"/xyz/a.csv";
FileInputStream
infile = new FileInputStream(new File(fileName1));
Reader r = new
BufferedReader(new
InputStreamReader(infile,"UnicodeLittle"));
res.setContentType("application/vnd.ms-excel");
PrintWriter
out = res.getWriter();
char[] buffer = new char[4096];
int
len;
while((len = r.read(buffer)) != -1)
out.write(buffer, 0,
len);
out.close();
out.flush();
}//end try
catch(Exception
e)
{System.out.println("Error e
:"+e);e.printStackTrace();}
}
}
Regards,
Prem
