I was searching for a better way of reading a 10MB+ CSV file into a JTextPane. Absolutely horrendous performance with Java Swing. Took around 1 minute+ to display it.
I was hoping there would be a JIDE component that did this. There is. CodeEditor. I looked on the forums and found it would cope with files up over 1 GB. It handles our 10MB+ files no problems. This works nicely for us as there are the line numbers included.
On my travels around the internet for a solution, there are many people wanting to display large text files and it seems a heck of an effort to do this.
You guys could easily strip out this functionality from the CodeEditor and push it as a new component. Unless there is already one in the JIDE library.
Keep up the good work.
