Use the find command if you are looking for a specific file or directory name. The following example will find only filenames (type f) that contain the word "sample", but exclude the results found in /usr and /u01:
# find / -type f -name "*sample*" | egrep -v "/u01|/usr"
/home/oracle/snippets/parse2.sample
/home/oracle/snippets/parse3.sample
/root/sample.bin.dc
/root/sample2.bin
/root/sample.bin
/root/sample.des
/root/sample.out
/etc/gdm/PostLogin/Default.sample
/proc/sys/kernel/perf_event_max_sample_rateUse the grep command to search for content. For example:
# grep -r "Dude" /home
/home/oracle/snippets/sched_stop_dist.sh:# Author : Dude
/home/oracle/snippets/healthcheck.sh:# Author: Dude

How to search the file in all directories

Lets go back to your first question, the one you didn't post here. Why do you want to "retrieve ms word"? My guess is that you want to execute the Microsoft Word executable program and have it load a Word document that you happen to have available.
If that's the case (and dozens of people have already asked that here), then do this:Runtime.getRuntime().exec("start yourdoc.doc");but put the actual file name in there in place of "yourdoc.doc".
If you have some other reason for wanting to find MS Word's executable (e.g. you want to delete it), then please reply to this post and let us know.

Sorry I do not understand your question.
If your question is
1. How Do I iterate over files in a Directory? Then see A1.
-or-
2. How do I let the user select a File (Dir)? Then see A2.
A1:
void processDir( String dirPath ) {
File dirFP = new File( dirPath );
String dirs[] = dirFP.list();
for ( int i = 0; i < dirs.length; i++ ) {
String fileName = dirs;
String dirName = dirPath + File.separator + fileName;
File theFile = new File( dirName );
if ( theFile.isDirectory() == true ) {
processDir( dirName );
else {
// Not Directory! ... It is a file!
int nDot = fileName.indexOf( '.' );
String ext = (nDot > 0 ) ? fileName.substring( nDot ) : "";
// Process File...
// To see if the extension is of a
// particular Type...
if ( ext.compareTo( "xyz" ) == 0 ) {
// Process special file type...
A2:
String BrowsePath( )
JFileChooser chooser = new JFileChooser();
chooser.setFileSelectionMode( JFileChooser.DIRECTORIES_ONLY );
chooser.setMultiSelectionEnabled( false );
JFrame parentFrame = null; // Or better!
int returnVal = chooser.showOpenDialog(parentFrame );
String result = null;
if (returnVal == JFileChooser.APPROVE_OPTION)
File selectedFile = chooser.getSelectedFile();
result = selectedFile.getAbsolutePath();
return result;

I have a spreadsheet data which has 286*516 Pixels data. Data is 16bit
(from which only 12bit is usefull). Each data is a Level of a Pixel. I
want to Display Grayscale Image.
I have used 3D Graph to display it and projection XY selected . I am
getting My image as grayscale Image but somewhat slow display if I
continously run it.
Second Method I tried is Directly "some 2D Graph" ( Sorry I forgot the
Name.. I will get it next time) which directly display that 16 bit
spreadsheet file. But it has only 255 levels so it didn't utilized my
data and resolution is poor.
My doubts are..

had to convert it in 16 bit I am loosing any levels or

3. Is there any way of increasing 255 level to 16bit level 2D Graph method.
4. Is there any method that can display my 16bit information as a image utilizing all my levels.

Finder View Options, For All Sub Folders

If I understand how View Options work in Finder windows ...
I can set View Options for a particular folder to always open up in a particular View Options setting.
I can set that very same View Option as the Default View Option for all the rest of the folders I open up.
But, what I would like to do is set the View Options for a folder and all it's sub folders to be the same. Without changing the default View Option for the rest of the folder I open up.
For example.
I like to have my Documents open up in List View.
I like to have my Photos open up in Icon View. (along with certain Icon View Option settings)
Is there a way to do this?
Can I set the directory and all sub folders/directories for all my photos to open up the way I would like them? Without having to change the way all my Document folders/directories open up?
Because the way it seems to work now, is that every time I create a new folder in my Photos directory/folder, I have to manually set the View Options, since the default is List View and not Icon view. If I change the default to Icon View, then any new folder/directory in my Documents will then open up in Icon View.

If the folder is not set to open in a specific view, it should open in the same view as the containing folder. When using mixed views, you need to open the folder in another window to get the view it previously had.
In your example, setting Documents to always open in list view and Photos to always open in Icon view should have any new sub folders open in the same view. If any existing sub folders have a different view, you will need to manually change the view, since the Finder will (usually) keep track of the view any particular folder has.

How to find a hierarchy of all Itmes Pages inside a Page

Hi,
I am using Oracle Portal 10.1.2. Need some information:
I have a page with Items or it can have both items, sub-pages and further each subpage can have items and/or sub-pages. How can I find all the objects in a hierarchical order. How can I construct my SQL to query the back-end tables that I can query to build a hierarchy for the whatever Page's pageid I provide.
If given a Page ID need to return all the items, sub-pages and so forth. I am trying to build a Tree structure Menu.
I have one Top page with tabs and in each tab I am adding one Portlet i.e. a page that is published as Portlet. Now this page which is published as a portlet can only have Items added or can have n number of sub-pages underneath which in-turn can have items and/or sub-pages and so forth, just like a Folder Structure in Windows. As soon as the user clicks a tab want to show all the items/pages in a tree like format.
Any idea on how can I proceed any help is really appreciated.
Thanks

How to find a String in a Vector???

Hi!!
Thanks in advance for read this post. I have a little problem... please help me.
I need to find if a String exists or not in a Vector. The vector is a list of results from a database. Here goes my code:
<html>
... html code ...
<%
int IdClass = Integer.parseInt(request.getParameter("IdClass"));
int module = Integer.parseInt(request.getParameter("module");
Connection conn = null;
Statement stat = null;
ResultSet rs = null;
int oError = -1;
String oMessage = null;
List Functions = new Vector();
CallableStatement cs = null;
try{
Class.forName ("sun.jdbc.odbc.JdbcOdbcDriver");
conn = DBConnection.GetConnection(DBConnection.DSN);
if (conn != null) {
cs = conn.prepareCall ("begin procedure(?,?,?,?); end;");
cs.setInt(1,IdClass);
cs.registerOutParameter(2,Types.INTEGER);
cs.registerOutParameter(3,Types.VARCHAR);
cs.registerOutParameter(4,OracleTypes.CURSOR);
cs.execute();
rs = (ResultSet)cs.getObject(4);
oError = cs.getInt(2);
oMessage = cs.getString(3);
if (oError == 0) {
while (rs.next()) {
Functions.add(rs.getString(1));
session.setAttribute("sessionFunctions", Functions);
out.println("<script>document.location.href=\"Ok.jsp\";</script>");
else {
String message = null;
message = "Error "+oError+": "+oMessage;
out.println("<script>document.location.href=\"NO.jsp\";</script>");
cs.close();
if (conn != null) {
conn.close();
%>
... html code...
</html>
That code generates a Vector that contains this:
[1, 2, 3, 6, 7, 8, 15, 28, 35, 41, 58, 65, 66, 68, 71, 74]
In the Ok.jsp page, i have a String like this:
String access = "2,7,14,15,28";
First, i need to get the values of the sessionFunctions.
String X = (String)session.getAttribute("sessionFunctions");
I need to know if each number (2,7,14...) exists in the vector. For example, in this case, the follow numbers exists: 2, 7, 15, 28.
So, if the number exists in the Vector, i will generate some HTML code. If not, i will generate a different HTML Code.
if (String exists in Vector = 1) {
out.println("Yes!!!");
else {
out.println("No...");
Can somebody help me? I`ve read a lot of examples, a lot of posts in this forum, i`ve look a lot of files of another project in my company, but i can�t find how to do this...
Thanks in advance.
Rapeteiro.

If you are putting a Vector in a session, you should be able to get it back as a Vector. Try this:
// retrieve Functions Vector from session
Vector userProfile = (Vector) session.getAttribute("sessionFunctions");
String access = "2,7,14,15,28";
// prepare a Vector from this string
Vector accessVector = new Vector();
StringTokenizer acsTokenizer = new StringTokenizer(access, ",");
while(acsTokenizer.hasMoreTokens ())
accessVector.addElement (acsTokenizer.nextElement ());
// check for each function in string against userProfile Vector
for(int f=0;f<accessVector.size ();f++)
String function = (String)accessVector.elementAt (f);
if(userProfile.contains (function)
%>User has access to this function<%
else
%>User does not have access to this function<%
Hope this helps!
