Having trouble with delimiter

[chris83190@hotmail.com]

So there is a file named scheduling.txt and contains the following

ProcessFile=Processes.txt
IOdelay=2
ContextSwitchDelay=1
CTSSQueues=5
Debug=true

I am using = as the delimiter, but when i use it, it picks up the words after the = and the words before the = on the next line.

So when i System.out.println(processFile);
it prints out

Processes.txt
IOdelay

I want it to be just

Processes.txt

Here is my code:

package project1;

import java.io.*;
import java.util.*;
//import java.lang.*;

public class project1 {
    static String processFile = "";
    static int ioDelay = 0;
    static int contextSwitchDelay = 0;
    static int ctssQueues = 0;
    static boolean debug = false;



    static class ProcessFile {
        int pID;
        int arrTime;
        int totCPU;
        int avgBurst;

        void openSchedFile() throws IOException {
            File s = new File("scheduling.txt");
            canRead(s);

            Scanner sin = new Scanner(s).useDelimiter("=");
            if (sin.hasNextLine()) {
                if (sin.next().equals("ProcessFile"))
                    processFile = sin.next();
                else if(sin.next().equals("IOdelay"))
                    ioDelay = Integer.parseInt(sin.next());
                else if(sin.next().equals("ContextSwitchDelay"))
                    contextSwitchDelay = Integer.parseInt(sin.next());
                else if(sin.next().equals("CTSSQueues"))
                    ctssQueues = Integer.parseInt(sin.next());
                else if(sin.next().equals("Debug"))
                    debug = Boolean.parseBoolean(sin.next());
            }

            sin.close();

            System.out.println(processFile);
        }



        void canRead(File f) {
            while (!f.canRead()) {
                System.out.println("Could not open file");
                System.out.println("Program will now terminate.");
                System.exit(1);
            }
        }
    }

    public static void main(String[] args) throws IOException {
        ProcessFile proc = new ProcessFile();
        proc.openSchedFile();

    }
}

I would use a Scanner without a specified delimiter to read the file line by line, and then split the lines read in with the "=" delimiter.

e.g.,

         Scanner sin = new Scanner(s);
         while (sin.hasNextLine()) {
            String line = sin.nextLine();
            String[] tokens = line.split("=");
            System.out.printf("[%s, %s]%n", tokens[0], tokens[1]); // your code to handle the text would go here
         }

         sin.close();

I changed the code to this

            Scanner sin = new Scanner(s);
            while (sin.hasNextLine()) {
                String line = sin.nextLine();
                String[] tokens = line.split("=");
                if (tokens[0].equals("ProcessFile"))
                    processFile = tokens[1];
                else if(tokens[0].equals("IOdelay"))
                    ioDelay = Integer.parseInt(tokens[1]);
                else if(tokens[0].equals("ContextSwitchDelay"))
                    contextSwitchDelay = Integer.parseInt(tokens[1]);
                else if(tokens[0].equals("CTSSQueues"))
                    ctssQueues = Integer.parseInt(tokens[1]);
                else if(tokens[0].equals("Debug"))
                    debug = Boolean.parseBoolean(tokens[1]);
            }

It works wonderfully. You are AWESOME. thanks
