Word Counter - just count odd lines?

[Nick Wu]

hello all
I am new to Java and doing a code to count the specific words in a text file and print them with the line number.
The code below is the sample main method which I havenot combined with other classes.
The problem I encountered is that this main method only print the odd lines in the text files. Anyone can show me how to resolve it? Thanks.

 
import java.io.*;
import java.util.*;
import javax.swing.JOptionPane;
public class main
{
public static void main(String[] args) throws IOException
                                            ,FileNotFoundException
{
StringTokenizer tokenizer;
String fileAddress;  //the address of the file
String addressInput; //the file name entered by the user 
        String s; //the token
int lineNo; //the number of lines in the text
        int i;
        int counter; //the number of all the words in the text
       // TokenCounter tokenCounterA;

 addressInput = JOptionPane.showInputDialog("Enter the file name:");

// while loop starts, prompt the user to input the file name, and the whole 
// program starts.. when the program ends, prompt the user to enter a new file 
// name or enter nothing to terminate the program 
while(addressInput.length() > 0)
{
fileAddress = "h:\\" + addressInput;
    BufferedReader inFile =
                new BufferedReader(new FileReader(fileAddress));

   tokenizer = new StringTokenizer(inFile.readLine());
   s = tokenizer.nextToken();
   lineNo = 1;
   counter = 0;
  while (s.length() > 0)
  {
    counter++;
System.out.println("Line" + lineNo + ": " + s  );
    if(tokenizer.hasMoreTokens())
    s = tokenizer.nextToken();
    
    else    
    {
 if(inFile.readLine() != null)
  {
   tokenizer = new StringTokenizer(inFile.readLine());
       lineNo++;
      }
     else
     s = "";
     }
 }
System.out.println("All words:" + counter);
//prompt the user to enter another file name
addressInput = JOptionPane.showInputDialog("Enter the file name:");
}//while loop ends
//terminate the program
System.exit(0);
   }

}

You first problem lies here:

if(inFile.readLine() != null)
{
   tokenizer = new StringTokenizer(inFile.readLine());
   lineNo++;
}

In the if statement itself, you call inFile.readLine() which reads a line but you don't do anything with it so it gets lost. Whenever you read a line, you need to store/use it. Since this sounds like a homework problem, I won't give you the answer but that should get you on the right track.
