要做到这一点，

例如:

如果在当前目录中有dataFile.txt

import java.io.*;
import java.util.Scanner;
import java.io.FileNotFoundException;

public class readByLine
{
    public readByLine() throws FileNotFoundException
    {
        Scanner linReader = new Scanner(new File("dataFile.txt"));

        while (linReader.hasNext())
        {
            String line = linReader.nextLine();
            System.out.println(line);
        }
        linReader.close();

    }

    public static void main(String args[])  throws FileNotFoundException
    {
        new readByLine();
    }
}

输出如下:

一种常见的模式是使用

try (BufferedReader br = new BufferedReader(new FileReader(file))) {
    String line;
    while ((line = br.readLine()) != null) {
       // process the line.
    }
}

如果假设没有字符编码，则可以更快地读取数据。例如，ASCII-7，但它不会有太大的区别。很有可能您对数据的处理将花费更长的时间。

EDIT:一种不太常用的模式，可以避免行泄漏的范围。

try(BufferedReader br = new BufferedReader(new FileReader(file))) {
    for(String line; (line = br.readLine()) != null; ) {
        // process the line.
    }
    // line is not visible here.
}

更新:在Java 8中你可以这样做

try (Stream<String> stream = Files.lines(Paths.get(fileName))) {
        stream.forEach(System.out::println);
}

注意:你必须将Stream放在try-with-resource块中，以确保对其调用#close方法，否则底层文件句柄永远不会关闭，直到GC在很久之后才关闭。

看看这个博客:

Java逐行读取文件- Java教程

可以指定缓冲区大小或 可以使用默认大小。的 违约对大多数人来说已经足够大了 目的。

// Open the file
FileInputStream fstream = new FileInputStream("textfile.txt");
BufferedReader br = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(fstream));

String strLine;

//Read File Line By Line
while ((strLine = br.readLine()) != null)   {
  // Print the content on the console
  System.out.println (strLine);
}

//Close the input stream
fstream.close();

一旦Java 8发布(2014年3月)，你就可以使用流了:

try (Stream<String> lines = Files.lines(Paths.get(filename), Charset.defaultCharset())) {
  lines.forEachOrdered(line -> process(line));
}

打印文件中的所有行:

try (Stream<String> lines = Files.lines(file, Charset.defaultCharset())) {
  lines.forEachOrdered(System.out::println);
}

BufferedReader br;
FileInputStream fin;
try {
    fin = new FileInputStream(fileName);
    br = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(fin));

    /*Path pathToFile = Paths.get(fileName);
    br = Files.newBufferedReader(pathToFile,StandardCharsets.US_ASCII);*/

    String line = br.readLine();
    while (line != null) {
        String[] attributes = line.split(",");
        Movie movie = createMovie(attributes);
        movies.add(movie);
        line = br.readLine();
    }
    fin.close();
    br.close();
} catch (FileNotFoundException e) {
    System.out.println("Your Message");
} catch (IOException e) {
    System.out.println("Your Message");
}

这对我很管用。希望它也能帮助到你。

下面是一个完整的错误处理示例，并支持java 7之前的字符集规范。在Java 7中，您可以使用try-with-resources语法，这使得代码更简洁。

如果你只想要默认字符集，你可以跳过InputStream，使用FileReader。

InputStream ins = null; // raw byte-stream
Reader r = null; // cooked reader
BufferedReader br = null; // buffered for readLine()
try {
    String s;
    if (true) {
        String data = "#foobar\t1234\n#xyz\t5678\none\ttwo\n";
        ins = new ByteArrayInputStream(data.getBytes());
    } else {
        ins = new FileInputStream("textfile.txt");
    }
    r = new InputStreamReader(ins, "UTF-8"); // leave charset out for default
    br = new BufferedReader(r);
    while ((s = br.readLine()) != null) {
        System.out.println(s);
    }
}
catch (Exception e)
{
    System.err.println(e.getMessage()); // handle exception
}
finally {
    if (br != null) { try { br.close(); } catch(Throwable t) { /* ensure close happens */ } }
    if (r != null) { try { r.close(); } catch(Throwable t) { /* ensure close happens */ } }
    if (ins != null) { try { ins.close(); } catch(Throwable t) { /* ensure close happens */ } }
}

下面是Groovy版本，有完整的错误处理:

File f = new File("textfile.txt");
f.withReader("UTF-8") { br ->
    br.eachLine { line ->
        println line;
    }
}
