Af:image source outside of application

Hi I use Jdev 12c
I have a folder which contains images, this folder is outside the app
I did this to save space in the Database,
I'd like to know how to access it to show it
I used
<af:image source="/home/diego/Pictures/aaa.png" id="i1" shortDesc="Hi"/>
but it didn't work I checked the generated code and it shows like this:
<img id="r1:2:i1" title="Hi" alt="Hi" class="xkx" src="/test/home/diego/Pictures/aaa.png">

Having a folder which contains images makes the folder within the app, not outside as indicated. Having images in a database would make the images outside the app.
What is the images folder placement?
"Only image data deployed with the application below the web root (not within the WEB-INF folder) is directly accessible."

Problems distributing application using Imaging Source USBCamera and Labview 2010 - Imaging Source sdk required?!

Hi
I've been having trouble with the Imaging Source camera we own when trying to build applications.
Everything works perfectly on the dev PC with appropriate sdk installed.
When I move to building the application (no errors) and deploying it to another PC the activeX control used to interface with the camera does not appear.
Instead I get 'Control could not be loaded' in red text where the control should be.
As far as I can see the activeX component itself is correctly installed on the PC.
If I install the IC Imaging Control sdk the application begins working correctly.
If I uninstall the sdk from the dev PC I get the message about needing a license if I attempt to add the ActiveX control afresh to the program (via the activeX container)
I've posted on the Imaging Source forums and they suggested I try here.
ORIGINAL POST ON IMAGING SOURCE FORUMS:
I'm using a DMK 41BU02 with labview 2010 + IC Labview extension.
The activeX interface for the camera works fine until I deploy it to a PC that does not have the IC Control software installed.
All I see is a 'Control could not be loaded' message where the activeX box should be.
I've installed VB6 redistributable to the client PC so I know the activeX workings should be present on the PC.
If I install IC Control onto the PC the program starts working correctly!
Has anyone compiled software with Labview 2010 successfully?
Is there a trick when creating the application/installer spec?
Thanks in advance
Dan Acres
REPLY
This is correct. I suppose, the LabVIEW setup creating system does not automatically add the used DLL in the "user.lib" directory of your LabVIEW installation path. What does the LabVIEW support say about this, especially in relation to ActiveX controls, that use the Microsoft licensing mechanism?
The dll he mentions is packaged into the support folder in the application spec.
I have also manually copied the dll into the location referenced by the software (Labview 2010\user.lib\xxxx.dll).
This made no difference.
I've got no experience building these kind of thing into applications so I cannot tell if it is caused by a mistake I've made or Labview or if the Imaging Source softwares have done something wrong.
Many thanks in Advance

Dan,
I think I might have a solution for you and others who need to include the imaging source active-x control in a deployed executable program.
I solved this problem by creating a project that included the dlls and .ocx files required for the Active X Control (these files are in a folder is created once the IC Software is installed C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\IC Imaging Control 3.2) and an executable that registers the Active X Control after the main program is installed.
The simple vi that registered the .ocx control for me upon install of my LabVIEW executable was called RegisterActiveXCtrl.vi. All it does is calls the regsvr32 with the path of my .ocx file.
I bundled my main program PCDemo_Stratom.exe and RegICActiveX.exe into an installer and set the option to run RegICActiveX.exe at the end of installation.
The installer must be installed with administrator rights to get the RegICActiveX.exe regsvr32 call to work.
Hope this helps you/others in the future!

Image.source in ItemRenderer works in Windows but not Mac

I have a Flex (AIR) application that is giving me problems on
the Mac. In one of the
Datagrids, I am using an ItemRenderer with an image control.
Some code in the
"set data(value:Object)" function assigns a file path as the
source of the image
control as follows.
imgThumb.source =
File.documentsDirectory.resolvePath("pdqtemp").nativePath +
"/" + data.strJPGFileName;
This works correctly in Windows , but not on the Mac.
In this case, the path resolves to the following on the Mac.
/Users/brian/Documents/pdqtemp/artist_01t.jpg
I have verified that the file is in the right place and when
using the path in
the command line console, it correctly addresses that
directory and file. I
don't normally develop apps for the Mac so I am sure there is
something I am
missing.
Any ideas?
Thanks for your help.

Hi Jed,
Thanks for responding
That is the exact path assigned to the Source of the Image
control. However, it isn't exactly a trace of the Image.Source
property.
The code in question is attached
The alert shows the path I originally posted and shows that
the fileImgThumb.exists returns False.
As I mentioned, this works perfectly in Windows. There is
some code elsewhere in the app that creates the thumbnail. That
does work on the Mac as the thumbnail image is created and saved
where expected.
I am not sure what I might be doing wrong.
Thanks for your help,
Sid

Best way to manage images on jsp web application

Hi,
Am developing a jsp web application, in that project, the user will upload the image files, now I created an image directory in the context root and when the image is uploaded by the user it is saved in the /images directory and the image path is saved in the database. I can display this image using the <img src="images/a.jsp" > tag.
but when I rebuild the project all the images in the /images directory get deleated but the image path is remained in the database, is there any method that I make /image dir outside my project context root so that when I rebuild the project the /images dir can get changed and my project will save images outside the context root that is in the /images dir which is now outside the project context root. and is it possible to display those images using <img src""> tag. because this time my /images dir is at D:/images . what could be the best method or way to handle images with the web application.
any suggestion will be helpfull

Well my friend as per your given case there are to two ways of approaching your problem.
Case 1:
How to save the relevant data ??
.Create a backup folder Workstation on which you are hosting your application where you can store all the uploaded files which is outside the scope of webserver(However we can write a dedicated servlet which can access that file) and make sure we pickup from any the folder path from a specfic MessageResource bundle or an context/servlet init parameter in web.xml.
.Write a Upload servlet/Backing Bean which saves all the files in the discussed folder using utility packages like Commons FileUpload,Oreilly MultipartRequest & etc and then register saved fileName in the database user specfic table specific to user.
How to display the Image ??
.Write a dedicated servlet which can pickup user related fileName specfic information from the database and the read the file from backup folder by constructing the path from the entry made as a init param in web.xml or any other custom MessageResource bundle and then stream the Image data using the ServletOutputStream.
NOTE: do not forget to pickup & setImage file ContentType & Set the content length.
.Just try to render the JSP view file where we are displaying the displaying the images by calling the dedicated ImageServlet.
<img src="ImageServlet?userid=2345" align="center"/>Try to refer below posts to get a better understading.
Dedicated Image Servlet:

Uploading Files Using Servlet:
http://muimi.com/j/jakarta/commons/fileupload/
Case 2
The second method would more or less the same but here we would save the uploaded file
content is saved in the Database as a Blob and we would retrive it back using a dedicated image servlet again.
However,in terms of performance the second case implementation is very costly.
Try to refer below posts to get a better understading on the second case.

Set Image source programmatically

I am working on a use case, where I have to set image source programmatically based on an input value. Eg: When I have a value of 'House1' in a form field, I have to display House1.png picture from a folder in file system. How can I do this?

Thanks Timo.
JDev Ver: 11.1.2.3
I used the easy solution to have the images in a sub directory under root and accessing them using EL language. It is working fine. I have another question, as to the process to be implemented if I have to update the images. The application that I am working on has a need to update the images frequently. What is the best way to do it? I am thinking of creating a jar file for images and deploying it to web logic server Ishared library). If I have to add a new image, I can just make a jar file and re-deploy it again. I am new to ADF, so I am not sure if my approach is correct. Please advise.
And, thanks for your blog. It was helpful.

Display image in standalone AIR application

I have loaded images and like to display image in standalone AIR application. But I cannot get it work. The code as follows:
private function ImageLoader(url:String):void
var request:URLRequest = new URLRequest(url);
var loader:Loader = new Loader();
loader.contentLoaderInfo.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, loaderComplete);
loader.load(request);
private function loaderComplete(event:Event):void
var scaleFactor:Number = 1;
var uic:UIComponent = new UIComponent();
try
var bmp:Bitmap = event.target.content as Bitmap;
var bmd:BitmapData = bmp.bitmapData; //Bitmap(event.target.content).bitmapData;
var scaledBMD:BitmapData = new BitmapData(400, 400);
var matrix:Matrix = new Matrix();
matrix.scale(scaleFactor, scaleFactor);
scaledBMD.draw(bmd, matrix, null, null, null, true);
uic.x = 40;
uic.y = 40;
uic.addChild(new Bitmap(scaledBMD));
catch (errObject:Error)
trace(errObject.message);

Found answer by adding mx:Canvas and add
iconCanvas.addChild(uic);
after
uic.addChild(new Bitmap(scaledBMD));
<mx:Canvas id="iconCanvas" width="10" height="10" horizontalScrollPolicy="off" verticalScrollPolicy="off" x="0" y="0" clipContent="false"/>
Is anyone create "Canvas" by using new Canvas and get it works? example:
var canv:Canvas = new Canvas(...);

Using data source in adf application.

Hi ,
JDev version : 11.1.1.6.0
I am planning to use data source in the application , but there is an issue facing while running with data source.
Exception in thread "main" javax.naming.NoInitialContextException: Cannot instantiate class: weblogic.jndi.WLInitialContextFactory [Root exception is java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: weblogic.jndi.WLInitialContextFactory]

So I used "Weblogic.jar" once and "wlfullclient.jar" . By using one of these jars issue fixed but because of it while loading the application it is throwing the below error .

For this I observed that solution is removing the wlfullcient.jar or weblogic.jar from the libraries. But If I do not use any one of them then data source does not work. Please guide me with your suggestions.

This is configured in your database access layer - if it is using ADF BC then in the Application Module go to the configuration tab and edit the local configuration to see the information about which DB you are accessing.

How to stream flv files from a diffferent directory outside the applications folder

it?

VOD changes won't help him, he said outside the applications

should be a really simple matter.

How to set image source path in formsweb.cfg file in forms 11g

Hi,
I had written HTML code in the formsweb.cfg file in forms 11g. In the below code i am unable to retrive image file(i.e., .gif, .jpeg) from the server or local machine.
In the below HTML code i set image source in the image tag as below:

AFAIK, this is not the correct way to set the image location.
We call the working directory as context, so inside the context root along with WEB-INF, maintain a folder with name img and put all the images in that directory.
You can use either .\<image_folder> or the optimum way would be (if you are using JSPs) to use getContext() method and traverse accordingly.
FYI,,, using getContext() will give you context root directory, from there it is as simple as accessing any other folder.
Hope this answers your question.
Cheers,
Jeets.

Have to toggle "Relative to" button each time I try to change an image source

Dreamweaver CS4 running on Windows 7.
When changing an existing image on an existing web page in Dreamweaver by double-clicking the existing image on the page to open the Select Image Source panel, I have to toggle the "Relative to" (Site Root / Document) button for each image.
In other words, say that when using Design view, I want to replace img1.jpg with img3.jpg, and IMG2.jpg with img4.jpg, The steps I have to take are:
1. Double click img1.jpg on the page to open the Select Image Source panel.
2. Select img3.jpg.
3. Click the Relative to button at the bottom of the panel and change it from whichever it is on (Site Root, let's say) to the other option (Document).
4, Then click OK.
5. Double click img2.jpg on the page...
6. Select img4.jpg
7 Select the other option (SIte Root) in the Relative to drop down
8. Then click OK
9. Repeat for each image whose source is being changed. If one is relative to Site Root, the next will have to be relative to Document, then the next again I have to select Site Root, etc.
If I don't select the other relative to option, the image source path will not change when I click OK.
Default Link Relative To in site definition is set to Document.
It's been like this for weeks now and it's starting to get annoying. Any ideas?

David, I tried deleting the corrupt cache flie, no difference. Deleted the config folder, same. Other than I lost the extensions... and had to reinstall them.
However, John's answer is correct. And clicking another image before clicking the one I want is faster than the way I was doing it.
It makes no difference if they are .png .jpg or .gif images.
By the way, I was wrong about my DW version. Turns out it's CS3. Guess it's time to upgrade... one of thes days!
Thanks everyone!
