Hi all,
I want to access the COSMIC biomart using smart services and Java. Here is
my code.
import java.io.BufferedReader;
import java.io.FileReader;
import java.io.InputStreamReader;
import java.io.PrintWriter;
import java.net.URL;
import java.net.URLConnection;
public class accessDB {
public static void saveDbData(String xmlName) throws Exception {
try {
URL url = new URL("http://www.biomart.org/martservice";);
String fileContents = readFileAsString(xmlName);
URLConnection urlc = url.openConnection();
urlc.setDoOutput(true);
urlc.setDoInput(true);
PrintWriter pw = new PrintWriter(urlc.getOutputStream());
pw.write(fileContents);
pw.close();
BufferedReader in = new BufferedReader(new
InputStreamReader(urlc.getInputStream()));
String inputLine;
while ((inputLine = in.readLine()) != null) {
System.out.println(inputLine);
}
in.close();
} catch (Exception e) {
}
}
private static String readFileAsString(String filePath)
throws java.io.IOException {
StringBuilder fileData = new StringBuilder(1000);
BufferedReader reader = new BufferedReader(
new FileReader(filePath));
char[] buf = new char[1024];
int numRead = 0;
while ((numRead = reader.read(buf)) != -1) {
String readData = String.valueOf(buf, 0, numRead);
fileData.append(readData);
buf = new char[1024];
}
reader.close();
return fileData.toString();
}
}
I used a XML file saved from the COSMIC Biomart site XML button. What could
be the problem. I think I am correct in thinking that if I POST the XML file
to the link it should work. What have I missed?
Thank you very much.
Regards,
Manjula
