Executing A Process In Android To Read A File

I need to read the content of a file using a Linux Shell Command executed using Java in Android. What command do I need to execute in order to read all the text in the file and sav

Solution 1:

File f=new File("path");
FileInputStream fin=new FileInputStream(f);
byte array[]=new byte[fin.avaialable()];
fin.read(array);
Stringstring=newString(array);

is enough.Why don't you follow simple solutions?

Update

/**
 * Execute a command in a shell
 * 
 * @param command
 *            command to execute
 * @return the return of the command
 */public String exec(String command) {
    Stringretour="";
    try {
        Runtimeruntime= Runtime.getRuntime();

        Processp= runtime.exec(command);

        java.io.BufferedReaderstandardIn=newjava.io.BufferedReader(
                newjava.io.InputStreamReader(p.getInputStream()));
        java.io.BufferedReadererrorIn=newjava.io.BufferedReader(
                newjava.io.InputStreamReader(p.getErrorStream()));
        Stringline="";
        while ((line = standardIn.readLine()) != null) {
            retour += line + "\n";
        }
        while ((line = errorIn.readLine()) != null) {
            retour += line + "\n";
        }
    } catch (java.io.IOException e) {
        e.printStackTrace();
    }

    return retour;
}

Invoke it as exec("cat misc/file.txt");
