How to get "lines" of text from TextAreaItem

[karim]

Sorry if this is a repeat, but I could not find any thread with correct answer.

here is my code segment.

		final DynamicForm form = new DynamicForm();
		form.setNumCols(2);
		form.setColWidths("15%", "85%"); 
		final TextAreaItem textarea = new TextAreaItem();
		textarea.setTitle("Enter New License");
		textarea.setRequired(true);
		textarea.setWrap(TextAreaWrap.HARD);
		textarea.setWidth("*");
		textarea.setColSpan(2);
		textarea.setEndRow(true);
		ButtonItem save = new ButtonItem("Save");
		save.setColSpan(2);
		save.setAlign(Alignment.CENTER);
		save.addClickHandler(new ClickHandler() {
			
			@Override
			public void onClick(ClickEvent event) {
				// TODO Auto-generated method stub
				if (form.validate()) {
					Log.info("value="+textarea.getValue());
					textarea.clearValue();
				}
			}
		});
		form.setFields(textarea, save);

I need the end_of_line character (whatever) be part of return value from getValue() method.

Thank you.

By what means are you determining that line breaks are not included in the output? Note that SmartGWT normalizes line breaks to Unix format (single CR or "\n") since otherwise browsers differ by platform. If you're somehow viewing data on DOS (aka Windows) it may render without breaks depending on the tool you are viewing it with.

that answer my question, thank you.

Sample code

private void previewCSVData() {
	String csv=(String) frmEmployees.getItem("csv").getValue();
	String[] lines = csv.split("\n");
	List<ListGridRecord> records=new ArrayList<ListGridRecord>();
	for(String line:lines){
		String[] fields = line.split(",");
		ListGridRecord record=new ListGridRecord();
		record.setAttribute("name", fields[0]);
		record.setAttribute("phone", fields[1]);
		record.setAttribute("city", fields[2]);
		records.add(record);
	}
	grdEmployees.setData(records.toArray(new ListGridRecord[]{}));
}
