I am trying to make a program that will grab information line by line from a .txt document on the web and one that will continue to do so as the information is updated. So far I have this code and it does grab it from the website line by line, but when I upload an updated .txt file with more lines, the program doesn't grab the new ones. How can I make it do that?
try { URL url = new URL("http://www.zachburtle.com/Ye.txt"); URLConnection connection = url.openConnection(); connection.setDoInput(true); InputStream inStream = connection.getInputStream(); BufferedReader input = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(inStream)); String line = "."; int previousCount = 0; while(true) { int count = 1; line = input.readLine(); while(line != null) { if (line != null) { previousCount = count; ++count; } if(previousCount < count && line != null) { System.out.println(line); } line = null; } } }
