i got ur mail here and posting my idea to read the RTF file in SWINGS. u can
use the
same logic in ur invisible application too.
u can read and write any type of file in java using java.io.Reader
The code listing is for RTFView.java is as follows:
import java.awt.*;import java.io.*;import javax.swing.*;import
javax.swing.text.*;import javax.swing.text.rtf.*;class RTFView extends JFrame{
public RTFView() { setTitle( "RTF text Application" ); setSize( 400, 240 );
setBackground( Color.gray ); getContentPane().setLayout( new BorderLayout() );
JPanel topPanel = new JPanel(); topPanel.setLayout( new BorderLayout() );
getContentPane().add( topPanel, BorderLayout.CENTER ); // Create an RTF editor
window RTFEditorKit rtf = new RTFEditorKit(); JEditorPane editor = new
JEditorPane(); editor.setEditorKit( rtf ); editor.setBackground( Color.white
); // This text could be big so add a scroll pane JScrollPane scroller = new
JScrollPane(); scroller.getViewport().add( editor ); topPanel.add( scroller,
BorderLayout.CENTER ); // Load an RTF file into the editor try {
FileInputStream fi = new FileInputStream( "test.rtf" ); rtf.read( fi,
editor.getDocument(), 0 ); } catch( FileNotFoundException e ) {
System.out.println( "File not found" ); } catch( IOException e ) {
System.out.println( "I/O error" ); } catch( BadLocationException e ) { } }
public static void main( String args[] ) { // Create an instance of the test
application RTFView mainFrame = new RTFView(); mainFrame.setVisible( true );
}}
