How to get full source file name in Exporter SDK

Hi,
I'm making an Exporter Plug-in using SDK 5.5.
I want to get the path and extension of the source file (when export file) and path of the sequence (when export sequence).
Especially the extension of the source file, which is always be replaced by the output extension.
I can't find it in the SDK guide and sample. Sorry if I'm being a noob.
Thank you.

Sequences are generally made up of multiple clips edited together. It's rare that a user would take a single clip and reexport it. So there isn't usually a one-to-one relationship between source file and exported file. Because of that, PPro provides the sequence name as the default file name.
If you did need to get at the source files, you could do it only under specific circumstances - only when exporting directly from PPro, or when loading a clip directly into AME, but not when exporting a sequence from PPro through AME. You would need to use the Video Segment Suite to parse the timeline segments, as demonstrated in the player sample code in videoSequenceParser->ParseSequence(). This is quite a complicated process and not something worth pursuing unless absolutely necessary.

How to get the source file name and transform into database

Hi,
We need to load data from source file abc.csv into oracle table. during loading, we need to keep the file name abc.csv and write into the database table as one field. Is there anyone who did the similar task? and how to make it? Pls help!

Hi,
If you can write the filename to a text file, you may do the following:
(1) create a text-file containing the name of your source-file.
(2) create an external table using that text-file as input.
Now, you can SELECT the filename from the external table.
Of course, you need a way to : create the flat file, handle the flat file, etc.

I imported different trips to different catalogs on different external hard drives. Later renamed external HDs. I want to combine catalogs and have my source (NEF) files all together on one drive. I'm not really sure how to get those source files back

I imported different trips to different catalogs on different external hard drives. Later renamed external HDs. I want to combine catalogs and have my source (NEF) files all together on one drive. I’m not really sure how to get those source files back and get rid of the extra long path to where the source files are now located. If I re-link files to their current catalog (many different paths to files in same catalog) can I merge (import catalogs) into one master catalog? Will the new (Master catalog) have the correct link to the source file? If not, how or can this be done?
I have tried to explain my situation as clearly as I can. Do you understand my situation?
This maybe something you don’t have time to help me with. If not can you suggest somewhere I can get an answer? I really need help. PLEEEZZZ HELP ME.

I really think 'buying' is the best solution on this one. Ideally, you would have at least five internal hard drives.

Requirement :
1) I am able to get the Target file name as same as the source file name when i check the ASMA in Sender & Receiver Adapter , with out any UDF...............this thing is OK
2) I took One field extra in the target structure Like "FileName" & I mapped it Like
Constant(" " )--UDF-----FileName
I Checked the Option ASMA in Both Sender & Receiver Adapters
Here iam getting the Target File name as same as Source file name + Source File name Info in the Target Field " FileName".
I Dont want to get the Target File name as same as Source file name. I want like Out.xml as Target file name.
If i de-select the Option ASMA in Adapters means it is showing " null" value in the target field "FileName".
Please Provide the Solution for this

How to get the Output File Name as One of the Field Value From Payload

Hi All,
I want to get the Output file name as one of the Field value from payload.
Example:
Source XML
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?>
- <ns0:MT_TEST xmlns:ns0="http://sample.com">
- <Header>
<NAME>Bopanna</NAME>
</Header>
</ns0:MT_TEST>
I want to get the Output file name as " Bopanna.xml"
Please suggest me on this.
Regards
Bopanna

Hi,
There are couple of links already available for this. Just for info see the below details,
The Output file name could be used from the field value of payload. For this you need to use the UDF DynamicFile name with below code,
// Description: Function to create dynamic Filename
DynamicConfiguration conf = (DynamicConfiguration) container.getTransformationParameters().get(StreamTransformationConstants.DYNAMIC_CONFIGURATION);
DynamicConfigurationKey key = DynamicConfigurationKey.create("http://sap.com/xi/XI/System/File" , "FileName");
conf.put(key,a);
return "";
DynamicConfiguration conf = (DynamicConfiguration) container.getTransformationParameters().get(StreamTransformationConstants.DYNAMIC_CONFIGURATION);
DynamicConfigurationKey key = DynamicConfigurationKey.create("http://sap.com/xi/XI/System/File" , "FileName");
conf.put(key,a);
return "";
With this udf map it with the MessageType as
(File Name field from Payload) > DynamicFileConfiguration>MTReceiver

How to get the long file name from an 8.3 name in Windows.

Because of a legacy string limitation, I have a list of files in 8.3 format. The actual files are saved with long names. How can I get the long name from the short name?
In JavaScript, I would get a file system object and get the file object from there with the short name. Then it's no problem to get the full name. But I don't see anything in Java that matches that. ???
Ideas?
Frank Perry, MSEE

Here is what I did.
String displayName = "somefi~1.txt";
File fO = new File("c:\\"); // I have a more involved path but that's not important here.
String stPath = fO.getPath() + displayName;
File fD = new File(stPath); // get the file using the short name.
File fDc = new File(fD.getCanonicalPath()); // get another file using the cononical name
String FulldisplayName = fDc.getName(); // get the long name from there.
It's roundabout but it works. Since getName() on the file read with the short name only returns the name used to get the file, I open it twice. The alternative is to parse the cononical name for the file name but that's clumbsy too.

How to get the target file name from an URL?

Hi there,
I am trying to download data from an URL and save the content in a file that have the same name as the file on the server. In some way, what I want to do is pretty similar to what you can do when you do a right click on a link in Internet Explorer (or any other web browser) and choose "save target as".
If the URL is a direct link to the file (for example: http://java.sun.com/images/e8_java_logo_red.jpg ), I do not have any problem:
URL url = new URL("http://java.sun.com/images/e8_java_logo_red.jpg");
System.out.println("Opening connection to " + url + "...");
// Copy resource to local file
InputStream is = url.openStream();
FileOutputStream fos=null;
String fileName = null;
StringTokenizer st=new StringTokenizer(url.getFile(), "/");
while (st.hasMoreTokens())
                fileName=st.nextToken();
System.out.println("The file name will be: " + fileName);
File localFile= new File(System.getProperty("user.dir"), fileName);
fos = new FileOutputStream(localFile);
try {
    byte[] buf = new byte[1024];
    int i = 0;
    while ((i = is.read(buf)) != -1) {
        fos.write(buf, 0, i);
} catch (Throwable e) {
    e.printStackTrace();
} finally {
    if (is != null)
        is.close();
    if (fos != null)
        fos.close();
}Everything is fine, the file name I get is "e8_java_logo_red.jpg", which is what I expect to get.
However, if the URL is an indirect link to the file (for example: http://javadl.sun.com/webapps/download/AutoDL?BundleId=37719 , which link to a file named JavaSetup6u18-rv.exe ), the similar code return AutoDL?BundleId=37719 as file name, when I would like to have JavaSetup6u18-rv.exe .
URL url = new URL("http://javadl.sun.com/webapps/download/AutoDL?BundleId=37719");
System.out.println("Opening connection to " + url + "...");
// Copy resource to local file
InputStream is = url.openStream();
FileOutputStream fos=null;
String fileName = null;
StringTokenizer st=new StringTokenizer(url.getFile(), "/");
while (st.hasMoreTokens())
                fileName=st.nextToken();
System.out.println("The file name will be: " + fileName);
File localFile= new File(System.getProperty("user.dir"), fileName);
fos = new FileOutputStream(localFile);
try {
    byte[] buf = new byte[1024];
    int i = 0;
    while ((i = is.read(buf)) != -1) {
        fos.write(buf, 0, i);
} catch (Throwable e) {
    e.printStackTrace();
} finally {
    if (is != null)
        is.close();
    if (fos != null)
        fos.close();
}Do you know how I can do that.
Thanks for your help

Thanks for your answer.
By following your idea, I found out that one of the header ( content-disposition ) can contain the name to be used if the file is downloaded. Here is the full code that allow you to download locally a file on the Internet:
      * Download locally a file from a given URL.
      * @param url - the url.
      * @param destinationFolder - The destination folder.
      * @return the file
      * @throws IOException Signals that an I/O exception has occurred.
     public static final File downloadFile(URL url, File destinationFolder) throws IOException {
          URLConnection urlC = url.openConnection();
          InputStream is = urlC.getInputStream();
          FileOutputStream fos = null;
          String fileName = getFileName(urlC);
          destinationFolder.mkdirs();
          File localFile = new File(destinationFolder, fileName);
          fos = new FileOutputStream(localFile);
          try {
               byte[] buf = new byte[1024];
               int i = 0;
               while ((i = is.read(buf)) != -1) {
                    fos.write(buf, 0, i);
          } finally {
               if (is != null)
                    is.close();
               if (fos != null)
                    fos.close();
          return localFile;
      * Returns the file name associated to an url connection.<br />
      * The result is not a path but just a file name.
      * @param urlC - the url connection
      * @return the file name
      * @throws IOException Signals that an I/O exception has occurred.
     private static final String getFileName(URLConnection urlC) throws IOException {
          String fileName = null;
          String contentDisposition = urlC.getHeaderField("content-disposition");
          if (contentDisposition != null) {

          // if the file name cannot be extracted from the content-disposition
          // header, using the url.getFilename() method
          if (fileName == null) {
               StringTokenizer st = new StringTokenizer(urlC.getURL().getFile(), "/");
               while (st.hasMoreTokens())
                    fileName = st.nextToken();
          return fileName;

How to get a source file?

I'm using Java 1.6 and extending AbstractProcessor to handle a custom annotation.
What I want to do is load the source file in which my annotation is found and extract a few lines of the code from around the annotation into a text file and save the text file.
I'm trying to use
compiler#getResource(...) to get a reference to a FileObject for the source file. I have the correct package and file name for the source but I have been unable to determine how I get the root of the source path from which all the source files originate. If I try the code with source root hardwired it all works i.e I prepend the source root to the package name and call
FileObject fObj = filer#getResource(StandardLocation.SOURCE_PATH, <src_root_string>+<package string>, fileName.java)
then the fObj correct, but this is not a practical solution. Without the <src_root_string> I just get a file not found exception.
So my question is how can I discover the source root folder from inside the AbstractProcessor and so not need to hardwire it in?
Alternatively is this the best approach? Should I try another approach?
Thanks

Mike,
You don't need a File to do what you want. Even if you could, it would be wrong to use a file.
It would be wrong, because the compiler might not by using a JavaFileManager that is actually backed by a filesystem. It could be backed by some form of repository such as a database, or it could be backed by a transient in memory file system ( An example of the latter is the [annotation processor test framework|https://hickory.dev.java.net/nonav/apidocs/index.html?net/java/dev/hickory/testing/package-summary.html] in hickory)
But probably of more interest to you, you don't need to because you can simply [get an InputStream|http://java.sun.com/javase/6/docs/api/javax/tools/FileObject.html#openInputStream()] from the FileObject returned from [filer.getResource(...)|http://java.sun.com/javase/6/docs/api/javax/annotation/processing/Filer.html#getResource(javax.tools.JavaFileManager.Location,%20java.lang.CharSequence,%20java.lang.CharSequence)] and read it.
You might also find the [Compiler Tree API|http://java.sun.com/javase/6/docs/jdk/api/javac/tree/index.html] useful. The Compiler Tree API is available to annotation processors running in Oracle's (Sun's) javac, but not in other compilers (possibly limiting portability).
With this API you can [convert |http://java.sun.com/javase/6/docs/jdk/api/javac/tree/com/sun/source/util/Trees.html#getPath(javax.lang.model.element.Element)] the Element representing the annotation to a Treepath then [get the leaf node|http://java.sun.com/javase/6/docs/jdk/api/javac/tree/com/sun/source/util/TreePath.html#getLeaf()] and from that tree [obtain its offsets|http://java.sun.com/javase/6/docs/jdk/api/javac/tree/com/sun/source/util/Trees.html#getSourcePositions()] within the source file.

If they are passing it in message id or correlation id,
you can access it using
<xsl:variable name="dynamic-conf"
        select="map:get($inputparam, 'DynamicConfiguration')" />
    <xsl:variable name="dynamic-key"
        select="key:create('http://sap.com/xi/XI/System/JMS', 'DCJMSMessageID/ DCJMSCorrelationID')" />

How to get the original file name in chinese with upload component?

It is inconvenience for user to upload file with name only in english. When upload a file with chinese file name, the file name gotten from "fileUpload1.getUploadedFile().getOriginalName()" is just like "缃戠粶鍥�.jpg". Do somebody have a good idea?

I spoke to the component engineers regarding this issue
First please check if the s page encoding is set correctly, as browsers tend to default to use the encoding that was used for the page when submitting the request.
(Because of how the JSF response writer is written, multibyte characters can be written correctly even if the encoding is not set correctly so the fact that form correctly rendered chinese characters is not proof that the encoding was set correctly).
If you established that the page encoding is correct, then there is a
bug in the FileUpload. The method that gets the name is a straight
shot through to an Apache FileUpload library method. Technically this
ought to be resolved by that method checking the request body
character set before parsing the parameters.

How to get rid of file name that pops up with mouseover?

When a user is on my website and mouses over a link to another page, the name of that page comes up - for example, if I mouse over the link to the Mums Night Out page (while on the home page) the file name pops up (mumsnightout.html)
Any idea on how to get rid of that annoying issue?

Is this question now solved?
Excuse me if it is, but I am really freaking out about this and don't know what to do.
I don't want to launch my website before everything is perfect and I really want the yellow-pop-up-box-bstrd to go away.
I am using this code which works fine in ff and safari but not in ie:
<script type='text/javascript'>
function clearTooltip() {
_links = parent.document.links;
for (i=0; i<_links.length; i++) {
_links.setAttribute('title', '');
chkFooter = setInterval('checkFooter()', 100);
function checkFooter() {
if (parent.document.getElementById('footer_layer') != null) {
clearTooltip();
clearInterval(chkFooter);
</script>
Should I modify it in some way? Any ideas?
