string index outofbounds exception

Please zip the CSV file and upload it.

Ok here it is.

I'm so at a loss I have no idea what to look for. I've even gone back to the original MBRS.csv file and get the same error. Can anyone tell me what causes the error StringIndexOutofBoundsException Length: 48 Index -1 if I had some idea what I could have done then maybe I can fix this.
I've add the complete program in case you need it.

Tow points, I don't know if it will solve your problem.
1) Are you sure that in Table1.SetHeader you have all columns ?
2) In the csv file all data are within double quotes in one of your older files all data are without double quotes.

Best regards.

When you say table1.setheader I don't have anything like that in my code. What is that and how do I put it in my code?

You need to make sure that the file MBRS.csv is located in the download folder of the device. I copied it to that folder and your program worked fine after that. I as able to search members. That is the only thing wrong I noticed.

I did the same thing, I copied the MBRS.csv to the download folder then changed the table = su.loadCSV(File.DirRootExternal, "download/MBRS.csv", ",") and ran it but I get the same error.

You should not have changed that line. Keep like it was in the zip file you posted. It should be like this:
It should be like this for it to work because you are copying the csv file from DirRootExternal to DirDefaultExternal in your code

I still get the error stringindexoutofboundsexternal I'm about ready to quit I just don't understand why you are getting it to work and mine will not work.

Tom:
Here is what I did, nothing magic:
1. I unzipped and installed your app. I did not make any modifications to your programs.
2. I copied the csv file you posted a day or so ago to the download folder of the DirRootExternal. In my case DirRootExternal is not in the SD card proper. It is part of the internal memory, but referred to as DirRootExternal.
3. I ran the app. It went through the indexing and so forth, then I clicked on search button on your form. I started typing names and it workedThat is all. Let us hope that Professor Klaus can pull is magic.

Well, I'm back at it again today. I did the same thing as you took the zip I had attached created a new program and tried it guess what I get the same error. I'm wondering if I should reinstall the B4android program. This just doesn't make any sense.
Anybody got other suggestions.

Why don't you add the file to the Files tab and then load it from File.DirAssets?

Sure you don't have a 'corrupted' or badly edited csv file at your device?
I would suggest copying a fresh copy of your file either from assets or manually.

I reinstalled the program but that didn't work either. What version of B4Android are you using?

Reinstalling the program doesn't necessarily mean that the file is reinstalled.

Ok, what I did was start a new project, downloaded the zip file of my program and unzipped it into a new directory on my computer. I then selected open source under file and selected the new directory and select the program. I just don't know why I get that stringindexoutofboundsexception length = 48 index = -1 what does the index -1 mean? It almost sounds like there is nothing in the file. I have uninstalled the program from my nexus and have run the compiler and installed the program again on the nexus.

Ok, this time I started a complete new project and reentered everything, and as soon as I hit this line of code I get the stringindexoutofboundsexception length 48 index -1
I don't know where to go or what to do. What else can I try???

In looking at the libs I see my version of StringUtils is 1.02 don't know if that makes any difference

Mahares,
If you still have my program working can you zip it up and let me try it. I don't know if it will make any difference but don't know what else to do.

I think you best bet is to again zip you full project and export as zip and include the csv file as you have it, so forum users have a chance to test it on their devices. You probably also need to indicate exactly where you are storing the CSV file initially. Although I did not get an error when I ran it a few days ago even with the new fields, here are a few things to consider down the road when dealing with text files:
1. Avoid comma separated files when you have already commas in the field data. I saw that you have commas in some of the last names. The best way to use a text file when there are comma in the data is to use a TAB delimited text file or semi colon separated file.
2. Most data in that new text file have double quotes as a qualifier. You did not have that in your original text file that had fewer fields. I do not know if that can cause problems.


ADDED: Here is zipped you program. It is exactly the way you posted it. I did not change any code except the package name. It ran for me. Here is what I did:
1. I Installed it on a Nexus 7
2. I copied the csv file you posted (the new one with the added fields) from my PC to the Download folder of the Nexus.
3. Ran the program. No error. Then I clicked on the Search Button. I was able to search. That is the extent of the testing I did. I did not do any other testing. I only tested to see if I get the same error you did. If you need your csv file, I can zipped for you also, but I assume you still have it.
