Howto resolve the path to the class file

hi @ all,
i'm currently developing a package for ldap operations. now i want to write down all the real basic configuration for that package into a xml file which i want to save in the folder where the compiled class files are stored. my problem is that i do not know how i can resolve the absolute path to that xml file later. i mean, how can i load this file if the package is, e.g. exported as an jar file and i do not know where this jar file will be stored by the users of my package.
can anyone help me with that please?
thx in advance

k, cool...
looks like it goes into the right direction.
with this statement i get the path where the jar is stored, right.
in my current situation this is the path to the src directory which i configured my eclipse ide to store the class files under.
let's say this path is d:\tmp\src
my package is tdl.domain.utils.ldap
so in fact at the moment my class files are stored under d:\tmp\src\tdl\domain\utils\ldap and the xml file too.
first:
that statement returns /D:/tmp/src
as you can see it uses unix path separators. do i have to replace them with the machine specific pathSeparatorChar?
second:
can is simply add the path tdl\domain\utils\ldap to that one (using the according machine specific pathSeparatorChar) and will this also work when i build a jar file of my package?
sorry for all that questions but i realy need this...
thx

How to determine the path of the jar file cache of javawebstart?

Hello, I need to know how to determine where the java web start application
file jar cache is stored on windows system hard drive.
I would have launch of the inner processes
I have need to know the path of file jar .
example if my application is myAppliation.jar
in code generic class of myAppliation.jar i have the command runtime
String strCmd =
System.getProperties().getProperty("java.home") + "\\bin\\java" +
     " -cp " +
     System.getProperties().getProperty("java.class.path") + ";"
     + " anotherClass.class ";
Runtime.getRuntime().exec(strCmd);
the anotherClass.class has need
of the contained library in myAppliation.jar.

Thanks i have tried this metod and function
java.net.URL resource = classLoader.getResource("myResource");
if (resource != null) {
String s = resource.toString();
if (s.startsWith("jar:")) {
int index = s.indexOf("!");
if (index > 4) {
String fileurl = s.substring(4, index);
if (fileurl.startsWith("file:")) {
String path = fileurl.substring(5);
// now path is the path to the jar file in the cache containing the resource
System.out.println("file jar: "+path);
}

How dos the application will know the path of persistence.xml file

Hi ,
I am seeing examples for ConatierManaged EntityManager
@PersistenceContext
public class Test extends HttpServlet
public void doGet()
EntityManager em
// JnDI Lookup code
em = (EntityManager) ctx.lookup("java:comp/env/persistence/em");
em.persist(Employee)
}Inside web.xml file

</web-app>Please tell me how the Application will know the path of persistence.xml file .
Thank you for reading

it is predefined; JPA always looks for the persistence.xml file in the META-INF folder.

Displaying the path of the file selected by a FileChooser in a TextField

I'm just getting started with Swing. I developed a simple dialog box that has two text fields and two buttons. The objective is to open two files using those two buttons. I used FileChooser to select the files. Now, I want to display the path of the selected files in their corresponding TextFields. I use the following code to do that.
final FileChooser fc1 = new FileChooser();
final FileChooser fc2 = new FileChooser();
final TextField tf1 = new TextField();
final TextField tf2 = new TextField();
private void button1ActionPerformed(ActionEvent evt)
            int returnVal1 = fc1.showOpenDialog(labelPhpFile);
            if (returnVal1 == JFileChooser.APPROVE_OPTION)
                File file1 = fc1.getSelectedFile();
                String fileName1 = file1.getName();
                String filePath1 = file1.getPath();
                tf1.setText(filePath1);
private void button2ActionPerformed(ActionEvent evt)
            int returnVal2 = fc2.showOpenDialog(labelPhpFile);
            if (returnVal2 == JFileChooser.APPROVE_OPTION)
                File file2 = fc2.getSelectedFile();
                String fileName2 = file2.getName();
                String filePath2 = file2.getPath();
                tf2.setText(filePath2);
}The above code works fine only for the first file. Mean the path of the file selected using fc1 is getting displayed in the tf1 TextField. But, the file selected using fc2 is not getting displayed tf2 TextField. Please help me.
Thank you :)

h5. Formatting Matters
* Post your code between a pair of {code} tags
    - That is: {code} ... your code goes here ... {code}
    - This makes your code easier to read by preserving whitespace and highlighting java syntax.
    - Copy&paste your source code directly from your editor. The forum editor basically sucks.
    - The forums tabwidth is 8, as per [the java coding conventions|http://java.sun.com/docs/codeconv/].
      - Indents will go jagged if your tabwidth!=8 and you've mixed tabs and spaces.
      - Lines longer than 80 characters should be wrapped.
      - Proper indentation illustrates program logic.
* Post your error messages between a pair of {code} tags:
    - That is: {code} ... errors here ... {code}
    - To make it easier for us to find, Mark the erroneous line(s) in your source-code. For example:
        System.out.println("Your momma!); // <<<< ERROR 1
    - Note that error messages are rendered basically useless if the code has been
      modified AT ALL since the error message was produced.
    - Here's [How to read a stacktrace|http://www.0xcafefeed.com/2004/06/of-thread-dumps-and-stack-traces/].

How to get the Path of the Current File using Import & Export File -Reg.

Dear all,
I have a mega (big) doubt. I have manually inserted the Figures from the figure folders. Now i need, fully automated. So How can I get the Figure path
Example :
PMString path = "E://development/Figures/";
now i checked, How many subFolders is there in "path", get the All Subfolders and check to the Article Name.
Example
Article Name == subFolder name then get the Files from the SubFolders(E://development/Figures/ChapterF/*.eps files").
now I paste the Document using to For Loop.
Please any one can suggest me, How can We get the Path in SDK.
Note:
Should I have to create the relative path by myself?
No method supplied in SDK to do this directly?
Please I need a help of this Query as soon as posible.
Thanks & Regards

When a file is uploaded, the file name is also submitted. The path of the file is available only to the machine within the Local Machine security zone. The value property returns only the file name to machines outside the Local Machine security zone. See About URL Security Zones for more information on security zones.
i need to know on how to get the compelete path /directory of the filename
using <input type="file"> tag You can't. Its a security thing.
is there any other way to get an input file from a local host aside from <input type="file"> tag?No. Not using just html.
You could always go into activex components, but thats different again.

Hi,
You have to first upload this file using fileupload UI element.
Then you can do the rest.
Following tutorial will explain you it in detail

How do i get the path of the file selected for opening in JFileChooser

hi
I need to get the path of the file selected for opening or saving in the JFileChooser dialog box.Is there any method available.if not how do i get that?
Thanks and Regards
Saminathan.

don't know if its the best/only way, but you could use the getSelectedFile() method in JFileChooser which returns a file and then use the getAbsolutePath() file method

How do I alter the bytes of a Class file to add calls to the methods?

If i had the bytes of a class file, and I wanted to alter the bytes that constitute each method for the class so that it included a call to the security manager, how would i do it?
1. How would I know which bytes were the opening of a method?
2. how would I know what the name of the method is?
3. How would I create bytes for something like:
   SecurityManager sm = System.getSecurityManager().checkPermission(thismeth, subject);
4. I assume that if by some miracle I can do the above, then all I have to do is call defineClass(...) in ClassLoader and send it the new bytes, right?
Thanks to all!

OK, if it will help anyone get me the answers here, I found a class on the internet that can read a class file and tell you where in the bytes a method occurs and what its name is, and how long it is. What I need now is how to convert a call into the correct manner of bytes.
For example, so I could add the bytes that would do:
   System.out.println("Added!");

Regarding the re-display of the path of an Upload File.

Is there a way to re-display the path of the Upload File?
I have browse this on the internet and they say that the browser itself prohibits this for security reasons. (Please correct me if I'm wrong)
Please help.
Thanks in advance!

i think i already got your problem.. what you wanted to do is to autoset the path of the file on the file element.. this cannot be done.. security is the main concern here.. if the browser allows you to set the value of the path a file on you client then many developers will make program that will get files from their client without user intervetion.. this will result to hacking of files on your clients computer..

I am trying to run a program that has a "dot" in its path, i.e. /path/to/.dir/MyClass. It seems like JVM command line doesn't accept dot and it converts it to "/" from what I see on the output. Is there a way to enforce the command line to take the path to the class as is and not to convert "." to "/"?

Hi,
Yes, this is being run on a Linux system by `crond' which prompted a suspension that it wasn't being run at all. So I tried it manually on the command line and realized it doesn't recognize the path to the class.
java /home/myuser/.dir/MyClass
Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NoClassDefFoundException: /home/myuser//dir/MyClassRunning the class from the hidden directory works accordingly:
cd /home/myuser/.dir
java MyClass
/* Right output */I have also tried quotations around the path in no vain

Is there any FM to separate the path from the file ?

I have a file given by WS_FILENAME_GET. I want the path and the file in different fields. How can I split them?
thank you

hi,
or use:
data delimiter value '\'.
split file at delimiter into table sptab.
1) file = last entry
loop at sptab.
endloop.
2) dir
delete sptab. "del file
loop at sptab.
concatenate string sptab delimiter into string.
endloop.

Getting the path of a resource file inside the context

I am trying to migrate some of our applications running on OracleApplicaiton Server. We have data resource xml file needs to use in the applicaiton. In Oracle Application server we used to give the actual path of the xml file to load the xml file to the parsers since we know the path of the directories after deploying the application as an ear file. How can I get the path of the files in weblogic after deployment. If this is not supported what is the alternative to get the relative path of that xml file to load in ? The xml file is in the root folder of the context.
THanks

Hi Suneesh,
Please try enabling the <show-archived-real-path-enabled> Tag to TRUE ...And then everything will work fine with the following code:
context.getRealPath()
At domain level in config.xml. For example:
<web-app-container>
<show-archived-real-path-enabled>true</show-archived-real-path-enabled>
</web-app-container>
*****OR *****
At the web app level in weblogic.xml. For example:
<container-descriptor>
<show-archived-real-path-enabled>true</show-archived-real-path-enabled>
</container-descriptor>
For Archived Applications , It is always a best practice to use the getResourceAsStream() rather than using getResource().......Below code snippet should workout in 99% cases
InputStream stream=this.getClass().getClassLoader().getResourceAsStream("someXMLorPropfile.properties");
Thanks
