Read line with Scanner

This code reads the file line by line.

public static void readFileByLine(String fileName) {
  try {
   File file = new File(fileName);
   Scanner scanner = new Scanner(file);
   while (scanner.hasNext()) {
    System.out.println(scanner.next());
   }
   scanner.close();
  } catch (FileNotFoundException e) {
   e.printStackTrace();
  } 
 }

You can also set a delimiter as a line separator and then perform the same.

 scanner.useDelimiter(System.getProperty("line.separator"));

You have to check whether there is a next token available and then read the next token. You will also need to doublecheck the input given to the Scanner. i.e. dico.txt. By default, Scanner breaks its input based on whitespace. Please ensure that the input has the delimiters in right place

UPDATED ANSWER for your comment:

I just tried to create an input file with the content as below

a
à
abaissa
abaissable
abaissables
abaissai
abaissaient
abaissais
abaissait

tried to read it with the below code.it just worked fine.

 File file = new File("/home/keerthivasan/Desktop/input.txt");
     Scanner scr = null;
         try {
            scr = new Scanner(file);
            while(scr.hasNext()){
                System.out.println("line : "+scr.next());
            }
        } catch (FileNotFoundException ex) {
            Logger.getLogger(ScannerTest.class.getName()).log(Level.SEVERE, null, ex);
        }

Output:

line : a
line : à
line : abaissa
line : abaissable
line : abaissables
line : abaissai
line : abaissaient
line : abaissais
line : abaissait

so, I am sure that this should work. Since you work in Windows ennvironment, The End of Line (EOL) sequence (0x0D 0x0A, \r\n) is actually two ASCII characters, a combination of the CR and LF characters. if you set your Scanner instance to use delimiter as follows, it will pick up probably

 scr = new Scanner(file);
 scr.useDelimiter("\r\n");

and then do your looping to read lines. Hope this helps!
