Limit on number of files in JFileChooser

Greetings
I may neeed to write an applicaton that searches a directory for files ending in a certain extension and merges the files into one large file. There are almost 11000 files in the directory that meet the extension criteria. A client wants me to write an app to do the merge but I am not sure if JFileChooser will let me select that many files at once. Does anyone know the answer or is there a better way to do this.
Regards
Doug Bath

You can certainly deal with directories with several thousand directories, I've done it myself. Likewise JFileChooser will display lots of files, but it isn't entirely clear to me why you would need one of those. My advice would be to try whatever you were going to try and ask when you have problems. Java rarely has arbitrary limitations on the amount or number of entities you can process.

  • Is there a limit to number of File items loaded to a single portal page?

    Hi,
    Does anyone know if there is a limit to the number of File items that can be loaded to one single portal (10.1.4) content page?
    thanks,
    Bret

    Hi Arnaud,
    Don't recall that we ever investigated a threshold value where portal was not performing anymore. It also depends on other circumstances as well :
    - what kind of caching is used on the page, i.e. pages cached on system level for a period of 24 hours will generally perform well, even if they have a large number of file items. The performance penalty is paid by the person who needs to generate the page from the back-end database.
    - Are all files in a single region or are they divided over several regions. I seem to recall that we use a fetcher thread for each region.
    My advice :
    Built a prototype, add file items to a page and start load tests. This will allow you to determine how many files can be added to a page without an unacceptable loss of performance.

  • Limit to number of files that can be moved or copied?

    I'm trying to move the contents of the "previous systems" folder (from my update to Leopard) to an external harddrive, but when I drag and drop the file name it starts the process but stays at "preparing to copy 16,850 items." It's still on that message in the dialogue box with the barber pole over an hour later.
    My question is: Is there a limit to the number of files that can be moved/copied at one time? Or does it just take a very long time?
    Thanks for any help.

    Thanks, Katy. I left it up all night and it was in the same place in the morning, so I'm assuming it isn't going to go what I need done in one fell swoop. I had to relaunch Finder before the dialogue box would go away.
    Moving all those files will have to wait, I guess, until I have enough time to break them into manageable chunks.

  • Post-Processing limit on number of files?

    Hello,
    When I export a set of pictures, I apply a post-processing Photoshop droplet to that applies the Imagenomic Portraiture filter. It works fine up to a certain point. I noticed that if the number of files is less than 21, it works fine. If the number is greater, it fails to perform the post-processing and won't even launch Photoshop to apply the droplet action.
    Has anyone encountered a file limit problem with post-processing in export?
    Del

    I'll assume you are talking about Windows and not Mac since I cannot speak about Mac's. In Windows, the export action is invoked by passing the filenames on a command line to the program/script that you specify. There are limits to how many characters can be passed on a command line, depending on which method the programmers used. I expect the limit is 2048 characters. When that limit is reached, then the action does nothing.
    The only way to increase the number of photos you can process, is to change the export folder name to something very short, like C:\Temp, or even shorter. By default, it exports to a very long path name an putting that in front of each photo name eats up valuable characters.
    There will still be a limit, but at least you can process more before failure.

  • File Adapter -- Need to limit the number of files picked up

    One of my trading partners sends a .zip file.  The zip file contains check images and an index file.  The Index File is the same name every time.
    So, if the trading partner sends two zip files, we will lose the index file.  We need to limit the contents to a single file at a time.
    Secondarily, the file adapter also runs at a specific interval...evey X seconds.  Is there a method to "fire" the FTP channel at a specific time?  Say for example at 6:30am every day?

    Hi,
    To handle ur first requirement, you can use the OS Commands option in the file adapter. (you have to play around with the options like archiving etc )

  • Trying to limit the number of thumbnails or files that generate on startup  - running Elements 9

    I swear I remember being able to limit the number of files that came up on startup to speed up E-9, but can't find it anywhere! 
    Anyone know how to do this?

    Been there done that. Thought there was a way to limit date range of working files, like 90 days.

  • Limiting the number of files being picked up by the sender file adapter

    We are running a file adapter to collect xml files from a legacy system in a shared network location.  The files are picked up, information is sorted and mapped, and then sent to a proxy on our CRM system to store the data.  Very simple and not-complex.
    Our initial data load will consist of somewhere in the neighborhood of 900k records, which is killing CRM.
    A co-worker with a bit more experience was telling me that he believes there is a way to limit the number of files that will be pulled per iteration of the file communication channel.  If this is the case, can someone share with me the parameters that need to be set?
    My apologies if this is a duplicate post - I have tried to look for a good answer in the forums and have come up empty.
    We are running PI 7.1, and I believe it is SP 6. 
    Thanks in advance for the help,
    Ben

    Hi Ben,
    There is no standard way to limit the number of files to be processed by the communication channel.
    On the Sender File CC, there is a parameter " Maximum File Size" which restricts the files bigger than the specific size, but this is just a prevention not a solution.
    If you have a single big size file, then somehow you have to create small sized files out of it.
    Thanks,

  • Maximum number of files supported in a folder for FileTable feature

    Hi,
    I have implemented a solution using SQL 2012 FileTable with an expected workload of 150K files a year. File's size is not that big, just a few KB EDI file but I am wondering what is supported/recommended limit of number of files in a folder for FileTable?
    Thanks

    The theoretical limit is the NTFS volume limit. This is provided in the below article.

    However the practical limit depends on your application and business scenario. You can read about FILESTREAM and FileTable internals and about performance considerations from the below excellent article

  • Add Folder - is there a limit to the number of files you can add in one go?

    I have a fairly large collection (60GB+) of 192kbps mp3 files which are stored under My Music in a folder structure of Artists / Album, e.g. "My Music \ ACDC \ Back in Black\ Hells Bells.mp3"
    I recently bought an ipod and having installed itunes I wanted to add all my music. I figured out that the way to do this is to go File / Add Folder and select the "My Music" folder.
    However, itunes starts adding the mp3s and stops at the Bruce Springsteen folder. At this point the itunes library can see all the "A" folders and the "Bs" up to and including Bruce Springsteen. If I try the process again nothing happens.
    However, if I then try to add a specific folder e.g. "My Music \ Charlatans" it works.
    This suggests to me that the Add Folder option has a limit to the number of files it can process.
    Any thoughts on this would be appreciated as I'm not looking forward to manually adding a hundred or so folders.

    Well the part about putting songs in the "iTUnes Music" folder I only brought up because it seemed you liked things very organized. You could use iTunes to so all the organizeing. Plus once you add something to the iTUnes library, if you change ANYTHING about it in windows explorer, like its name, change the name of the folder its in or move it to another folder, iTUnes "Looses Track" of it. Its not like other programs that "Watch" files and folders for changes outside its "iTUnes Music" folder
    But to have iTUnes auto search, you have to delete a hidden pref file. After doing this, when you open iTUnes again it will throw up a setup wizard, just like its the first time ever installing it. Its in this wizard where you get your ONLY chance to have iTUnes auto search and add files from the system. Just goto the link below and follow Scott P's steps

  • How we can limit the number of concurrent calls to a WCF service without use the Singleton pattern or without do the change in BizTalk Configuration file?

    How can we send only one message to a WCF service at a time? How we can limit the number of concurrent calls to a WCF service without use the Singleton pattern or without do the change in BizTalk Configuration file? Can we do it by Host throttling?

    Hi Pawan,
    You need to use WCF-Custom adapter and add the ServiceThrottlingBehavior service behavior to a WCF-Custom Locations.
    ServiceThrottlingBehavior.MaxConcurrentCalls - Gets or sets a value that specifies the maximum number of messages actively processing across a ServiceHost. The MaxConcurrentCalls property specifies the maximum number of messages actively
    processing across a ServiceHost object. Each channel can have one pending message that does not count against the value of MaxConcurrentCalls until WCF begins to process it.

  • Number of Files in a Folder Limit?!

    I have a 600 GB external hard drive and odd things have been happening lately and only to one noticable folder.
    I have one very large folder with SEVERAL hundred files in one single folder. Until just this past week, I have had no problem.
    However, all of a sudden the files are missing when I use finder to navigate to that folder. The first 30 usually appear or none at all. I try to do a Repair Disk and cannot, tells me there's an error.
    I reboot and the files are there until I add another file and then they're missing again.
    Another odd thing, if I use Spotlight, I can account for the files, and find them but not in Finder.
    So...is there a limit to how many files I can have in ONE single direcory?? I am going to try to move the files out into smaller directories until then but wanted help/advice/explaination of what could be the problem.

    p.s. These are NOT files related to iTunes.

    It looks like you have a problem with your HD. Use Disk Utilities or DiskWarrior to check your disk.

  • Limit on the number of file names retrieved using FM 'RZL_READ_DIR_LOCAL'

    Hi All,
    I am using FM 'RZL_READ_DIR_LOCAL' , to retrieve file names from a specified directory.
    When executed, i am getting 10,000 records(file names) only against lakhs of files present in the directory.
    I would like to know if there is any limitation on the number of file names retrieved using that FM and how to over come it.
    Also please let me know if the FM 'EPS2_GET_DIRECTORY_LISTING' also has any such limitations.
    Thanks in advance,
    Sreeni Vallem

    I did not know about this limitation of number of files returned. You can give a try to the external command way of doing it in your development system.  Well, creating 10001 files in development is a boring job . You can write a sample program as Rob has mentioned in this thread and copy files to a specific directory ABAP: Copy files from one R3 directory to another. This doesn't disturb the existing program written.
    Mean while let's wait for expert's reply.

  • HT2729 I have limited space on my new ipad. How can I limit the number of songs from my itunes on my imac from going to my ipad when I connect the two?

    I have limited space on my new ipad. How can I limit the number of songs from my itunes on my imac from going to my ipad when I connect the two?

    you can do this by keeping the external hard drive connected and doing the following
    -hold shift key down on computer while opening iTunes and a prompt will appear to choose a library
    -select choose library, iTunes should bring up your explorer windows where you can search for the external HD
    -after you find the external HD find the iTunes folder you just copied to it
    -after opening the iTunes folder look for the file that says iTunes library.itl or if you can't see that extenstion just look for a document looking thing in the iTunes folder that shows up as a database file
    -double click the database file and boom iTunes should load your library without having to copy it to the computer
    PS: do make sure that if you are going to do it this way, make sure that the external HD is connected at all times, because if you don't then you will get exclamation marks next to your iTunes songs
    double PS: if you are unsure how to find out if the iTunes library file is a database file just right click it and choose properties and under the type it should say database file
    hope this helps:)

  • How can I limit the number of simultaneous downloads on my Mac?

    Hi Everyone,
    I'm using an old Powerbook G4 runnnig 10.4.11.
    Whenever I'm downloading a large number of files simultaneously, my OS insists on downloading them all at the same time. When I've got 50+ files coming in, it gets kind of messy and makes it hard to use the internet. Everything slows down.
    It seems to me there should be a preference somewhere that will allow me to enter a number which would be the max number of files being actively downloaded. The rest of the files beyond this number would be in "queue" state, waiting their turn.
    You know ... if I'm clicking on 50 files to download, I only want two or three of them downloading at one time. The rest can wait their turn.
    Darned if I can find such a pref, though.
    Does 10.4.11 have such a feature that will allow me to have only a small number of files actually downloading and the rest of them queued up?
    -JOHN
    ps. By the way, I'm using Firefox. I don't find any such pref in Firefox, either.

    Thank you for the reply. I had no idea I had so much access to Firefox prefs.
    It's still a strange design though. Yep, the original setting was set to 30 simultaneous downloads. I set it to four, which would see to make my Mac more usable as four downloads are rolling while all the rest are in queue.
    Only probably is, Firefox doesn't just think of what is in the download list as a "download". Once all four downloads are rolling, no more webpages will open! (Strangely, sometimes they will, but very slowly ... but usually not at all.)
    Apparently, even a browser tab is a "download" and is stopped once the assigned number of simultaneous downloads is reached.
    So I'm still back to not being able to limit my downloads for the benefit of having good use of my browser while downloads are coming in.
    Right now, one pages where I have boo-koo downloads I want to initiate at one time, I'm clicking "download", starting the download, going to the downloads list, pausing it, getting another download, pausing it, and so on until I have a complete queue ready to go. Then I start the downloads once I know that I no longer need the internet.
    That seems sort of for the birds, doesn't it?
    Does anyone have any suggestions? Other specialized download programs get the concept of an active queue and a paused queue with a number-setting to determine the max downloads. Why doesn't Firefox get this? Or does it and have I just still not found it?
