Array from .txt

Hi all,
I have a nice photo gallery which uses an array like this:
photos = ["portraits/1.jpg", "portraits/2. jpg", "portraits/3. jpg", "portraits/4. jpg", "portraits/5. jpg", "portraits/6. jpg"];
All is well in the world but now I need to import the array data form a .txt file which has been created by php.
It writes the data exactly as it is above (without "photos ="). It creates the hard brackets, commas, misses out the last comma
and inserts a hard bracket and a semi colon. (cool php from a dynamically changing images folder...)
So the string in the .txt file is:
["portraits/1.jpg", "portraits/2. jpg", "portraits/3. jpg", "portraits/4. jpg", "portraits/5. jpg", "portraits/6. jpg"];
On the main timeline (have to add lots of code afterwards to make the gallery work) how do I set the variable
"photos" (as an array) and then import the string from the .txt file as it's value?
I'm using Flash 8
All and any help much appreciated
Best wishes
Tony

Yeah sorry for the twelve bore approach - it should have gone into the AS1&2 first.

Making the vi faster - read from txt or array or binary reading

I prepared a vi that reads a table from txt file and find the desired values corresponding independent two variables by interpolation-attached. This via reads the txt file for each calculation. I wonder that is this process slow or enough for me. Becasue I add this via to a daq vi and I send measurement values from this via to the interpolation.vi. I acquired samples once in a sec. Or is this more convenient to read the txt once and after writing values to arrays and use these arrays as a constant (Right click array-->Data Operation-->Make current value default) in the vi? Which one is faster? And also, I wonder that instead of reading from txt file, is it a good way to convert my values in txt to binary data and read this binary values by vi? Last thing, how can I learn a vi program run-spend time?

Reordering your words a bit... Are you asking how to measure how long it takes to run your VI? You can do this with a sequence structure (one of the few reasonable uses for them): in the first frame put a "Tick Count" or "Get Date/Time in Seconds" function. In the next frame put your code. In the last frame, put the same function that you placed in the first frame. Subtract the time value in the first frame from the value in the last frame; the difference is the time it took to run your VI in milliseconds or seconds (depending on which time function you used).
Another option is the VI Profiler, under Tools -> Performance and Memory. Open that window, click "Start," run your code, and click "Stop." It will report how much time it took to run your VI along with other timing information.
Thank you nathand. I am sorry for usage of wrong order. I tried your suggestion and it works great. The first vi takes 4-6 msec. And the second one takes just 0 msec because it does not calculate anything, including just constant values.

Auto delete everything but specified folder contents from txt file

Hey Guys,
I am brand new to using Powershell (like 48 hours into using it for work) and I've run into a bit of an issue. I've only taken a programming concept classes so some of the stuff makes sense to me but a lot of it is new. Basically I've made a
script that automatically deletes any files over X amount of days. My next step is to have an exceptions text that will have a list of folders that should not have its contents deleted. This is what I have so far.
$Date= Get-Date
$Days = "7"
$Folder = "C:\publicftp\users"
$LastWrite = $Now.AddDays(-$Days)
#----- getting DO NOT DELETE listing from TXT ----#
$Exceptions = Get-Content "c:\exclude.txt"
$Files = Get-Childitem $Folder -Recurse -Exclude "c:\exclude.txt" | Where {$_.LastWriteTime -le "$LastWrite"}
foreach ($File in $Files)
if ($File -ne $NULL)
Remove-Item $File.FullName -Exclude $Exceptions | out-null
I've seen a lot of threads that show how to auto delete contents or how to exclude specific file types but I haven't seen an answer to my particular problem. Any help would be greatly appreciated! Thanks!

Hi Rabbot,
The script below may be also helpful for you, and uses the -whatif parameter in Remove-Item cmdlet, which doesn’t actually remove anything but simply tells you what would happen if you did call Remove-Item.
$Exceptions = @()
Get-Content "c:\exclude.txt" | foreach{
$Exceptions += $_} #store the exception file to array
$Folder = "C:\publicftp\users"
$LastWrite = (get-date).adddays(-7) #over 7 days.
$Files = Get-Childitem $Folder -Recurse | Where {$_.LastWriteTime -le $LastWrite} #filter files which over 7 days.
Foreach ($file in $files){
if ($Exceptions -notcontains $file.fullname){ #if the file is not listed in the exception array.
Remove-Item $File.FullName -whatif} #use -whatif to test
I hope this helps.

How to get string (specified by line and column) from txt file with labview

Hi everyone
How to get string (specified by line and column) from txt file with labview
thx
Solved!
Go to Solution.

As far as I know, a text file has no columns. Please be more specific. Do you mean something like the 5th word on line 4, where words are separated by a space, and lines are separated by a newline character? You could the Read from Spreadsheet String function and set the delimiter to a space. This will produce a 2D array of strings. Then use index array and give the line number and column number.

Adding data to array from an empty query

I am trying to add data to an array from a database query, however some queries will return no data (empty set). In that case I would like to add fake data so that the index size matches my other array (assetsid).
Thank you for your time.
     int f2a=0;
     String[] exportedtime;
     String[] exportedtime_formated;
     ArrayList exportedtime_ar = new ArrayList(f2a);
     ArrayList exportedtime_formated_ar = new ArrayList(f2a);
     for (int jj=0; jj<assetsid_ar.size(); jj++)
          String eng_id_out = (String) eng_id_h2a_ar.get(jj);
          String fuel2a = "select engineserialnumber, TO_CHAR(exportedtime, 'MM/DD/YYYY HH24:MI:SS') exportedtime, TO_CHAR(exportedtime, 'DD/MON/YY') as exportedtime_formated from tblexportedjobs where exportid = (select max(exportid) from tblexportedjobs where engineserialnumber = "+eng_id_out+") and engineserialnumber = "+eng_id_out+"";
          ResultSet fuel2a_myResultSet = stmt.executeQuery(fuel2a);
              while (fuel2a_myResultSet.next()) {
               f2a=f2a+1;
               exportedtime = new String[f2a+1];
               exportedtime_formated = new String[f2a+1];
               exportedtime[f2a]=fuel2a_myResultSet.getString("exportedtime");
               exportedtime_formated[f2a]=fuel2a_myResultSet.getString("exportedtime_formated");
     if (exportedtime[f2a].equals("")) {
    exportedtime[f2a] = "01/01/2004 00:01:01";
     } else {
     exportedtime[f2a] = exportedtime[f2a];
               exportedtime_ar.add(exportedtime[f2a]);
     if (exportedtime_formated[f2a].equals("")) {
    exportedtime_formated[f2a] = "01/JAN/04";
     } else {
     exportedtime_formated[f2a] = exportedtime_formated[f2a];
               exportedtime_formated_ar.add(exportedtime_formated[f2a]);
     }

I'd be curious to know if it would be possible to rewrite your query using a JOIN so you could get all the data in one query. The way you've written it will require N network round trips, where N is the number of engine serial numbers. I wonder if clever application of a JOIN with a GROUP BY would do the trick in one?
I don't care for the formatting stuff you're doing, either. There's no need to ask the database for that. Bring the dates over and handle the formatting in Java using java.text.SimpleDateFormat. Less work for the database AND it won't be so tied to Oracle, since you won't need that TO_CHAR function anymore.
I'd give clients the raw java.sql.Date and let them worry about formatting it the way they wish. That's not a persistence concern.
I always prefer data structures like List and Map when I'm working with database result sets. They grow to fit the # of records that I get back. If I want arrays, I can always use the toArray() method to generate them.

How do I copy an array from a website to Excel using Firefox

Was running Firefox on Windows Vista. I could copy an array from finance.yahoo.com into an Excel spreadsheet by selecting the array with control key down then clicking on edit - copy selected cells, then pasting into an Excel sheet. I only had to tell it the upper left cell and the whole array went in properly
Now trying to do the same thing on a new machine running Windows 7, but the "copy selected cells" option is not available in the edit menu. Is there a way to copy an array with Firefox and Windows 7? These are big arrays. One cell at a time is out of the question.

How to call a CString array from TestStand

I have a C++ DLL that uses a CString array, CString myString[ ], that I need to pass back to TestStand 4.0 for inclusion in my results database.
In the TestStand module definition the parameter argument Description comes up as a CStriing pointer (CString*) instead of a CStringArray.
When I put my array of strings into the Value Expression I get an error: Expected String, found Array of Strings.
I have no trouble passing just a string pointer but that's not working either.
Can someone help?
Thanks,
Steve S

Hi Steve,
I don't think that you can pass a CString Array from C++ DLL to TestStand 4.0 directly.
But you can do it another way: concatenate all Strings by a delimit in your CString Array to build a new String, then pass it to TestStand. In TestStand you can separate those Strings by the delimit, and rebuild a String Array.
For example:
// If this is your CString Array.
CString myString[] = {"AAA", "BBB", "CCC"};
// Build a new String in your C++, and pass it to TestStand.
char *myNewString = "AAA~BBB~CCC";
// Separate myNewString and build an Array in TestStand...
Hope that can help you!

Passing an array from Java to Pl/SQL Procdures

I am relatively new to the Java world and I am unable to pass back an array from Java back to the calling PL/SQL procedure. I have read many of the posts that deal with this issue and in specificly have viewed Ask Tom. My main issue is trying to get the data types matched up. I am able to return varchar2, numbers, and the like, but an array of filenames is not happening. I have tried a variety of "types" but unable to accomplish the task. Please help.
I have my Java class basically defined as:
public static oracle.sql.ARRAY[] getCollection(String directory)
throws SQLException
{ // provide a directory and get a listing of files
File path = new File( directory );
String[] list = path.list();
return list;
SQL Type and PL/SQL Procedure is:
CREATE OR REPLACE TYPE PTO_FILE IS TABLE OF VARCHAR2(100);
create or replace function get_dir_collection( p_directory in varchar2 ) RETURN PTO_FILE
as language java
name 'DirCollection.getCollection( java.lang.String ) return oracle.sql.ARRAY[]';
/

I know that it is not an ARRAY. It is however an "array" and I am attempting to map Java's String[][ to some "object" on the oracle side. I have looked at the link you sited and was not able to find the data mapping. I have found that mapping data types between different "languages" is some of the most difficult aspects of working with multiple languages.
Any suggestions? Thanks

Reading in an array from a text file

I'm trying to use a text file to load in some configuratin
data (using actionscript 3) I have it working ok for simple stuff
like gamename=Chess&gamescore=100 , etc... but some of the data
needs to be in an array. Can someone please point me in the right
direction to how I can read in an array from a text file?
Thanks!

the easiest way is to create a string with the (soon-to-be)
array elements separated by a delimiter (like a double comma). read
in your string, then use the split() method of strings to split
your string into an array.

Can I move Array from one Xserve RAID to another and keep the data

I'd like to move a set of disk with an existing Array from one Xserve RAID to another. Can I simply shutdown both Xserve RAIDs and move the disk over, assuming I put the disk back in the same order?

Yes, you should be able to do this.
BE SURE YOU HAVE A BACKUP FIRST.

Calling an array from another class

Ok I have this little program that I created to display values stored in an array. Well, I want my array to automatically be populated with the same values that are in another array that resides in a different class. Here is my code for the class that I want the values to be displayed:
import javax.swing.*;
import java.awt.*;
public class GUIRead extends JFrame
     double[] interest = new double[3];
     MemicCSVReader[] interestObjectArray = new MemicCSVReader[3];
     interestObjectArray[0] = new MemicCSVReader();
     interestObjectArray[1] = new MemicCSVReader();
     interestObjectArray[2] = new MemicCSVReader():
     for(int x = 0; x < 3; x++)
     JPanel display = new JPanel();
     JTextField interestText = new JTextField(10);
     JPanel display2 = new JPanel();
     JTextField interestText2 = new JTextField(10);
     JPanel display3 = new JPanel();
     JTextField interestText3 = new JTextField(10);
     public GUIRead()
          super("Test");
          setSize(160,200);
          setDefaultCloseOperation(JFrame.EXIT_ON_CLOSE);
          setVisible(true);
          GridLayout config = new GridLayout(3,1);
          FlowLayout config2 = new FlowLayout(FlowLayout.LEFT,10,10);
          Container pane = getContentPane();
          pane.setLayout(config2);
          display.setLayout(config2);
          display.add(interestText);
          interestText.setText(interest[0]);
          interestText.setEditable(false);
          pane.add(display);
          display2.setLayout(config2);
          display2.add(interestText2);
          interestText2.setText(interest[1]);
          interestText2.setEditable(false);
          pane.add(display2);
          display3.setLayout(config2);
          display3.add(interestText3);
          interestText3.setText(interest[2]);
          interestText3.setEditable(false);
          pane.add(display3);
          setContentPane(pane);
     public static void main(String[] args)
          GUIRead run = new GUIRead();
Here is my code that I want the double[] interest array to pull it's data from:
public class MemicCSVReader
     double interestArray[];
     MemicCSVReader()
          String[] interestString = {"5.5","5.35","5.75"};
          for(int x = 0; x < 3; x++)
               interestArray[x] = Double.parseDouble(interestString[x]);
}

Ok, thanks for your help. Now I have another problem. I can't get the values to display. Here is my code:
This is the program that runs the application:
import javax.swing.*;
import java.awt.*;
public class GUIRead extends JFrame
     MemicCSVReader readCSV = new MemicCSVReader();
     double[] interestDouble = readCSV.getInterestArray();
     String[] interest;
     JPanel display = new JPanel();
     JTextField interestText = new JTextField(10);
     JPanel display2 = new JPanel();
     JTextField interestText2 = new JTextField(10);
     JPanel display3 = new JPanel();
     JTextField interestText3 = new JTextField(10);
     public GUIRead()
          super("Test");
          setSize(160,200);
          setDefaultCloseOperation(JFrame.EXIT_ON_CLOSE);
          setVisible(true);
          GridLayout config = new GridLayout(3,1);
          FlowLayout config2 = new FlowLayout(FlowLayout.LEFT,10,10);
          Container pane = getContentPane();
          pane.setLayout(config2);
          display.setLayout(config2);
          display.add(interestText);
          interestText.setEditable(false);
          pane.add(display);
          display2.setLayout(config2);
          display2.add(interestText2);
          interestText2.setEditable(false);
          pane.add(display2);
          display3.setLayout(config2);
          display3.add(interestText3);
          interestText3.setEditable(false);
          pane.add(display3);
          setContentPane(pane);
     public void actionPerformed()
          for(int x = 0; x < 3; x++)
               interest[x] = Double.toString(interestDouble[x]);
          interestText.setText(interest[0]);
          interestText2.setText(interest[1]);
          interestText3.setText(interest[2]);
     public static void main(String[] args)
          GUIRead run = new GUIRead();
This is the file that it pulls the array from:
public class MemicCSVReader
     private double[] InterestArray = new double[3];
     MemicCSVReader()
          double[] InterestArray = {5.5,5.35,5.75};
     public double[] getInterestArray()
          return InterestArray;
}

[Solved] Move Software RAID 5 Array From NAS To Arch

Edit: I probably never had a problem at all, the error in dmesg probably just scared me, because after I disconnected it I noticed that /dev/d127 was 8.1 TB, the exact size of my RAID array node in my NAS which was /dev/md0, I just overlooked it. I reconnected it to my pc and mounted /dev/md127 to /mnt/raid and got this wonderful sight!

I bought a Thecus N4520 a few months ago and it's ok but programs crash a lot and they're hard to debug, apps have to be updated manually and the whole thing is moderately underpowered. I'm trying to move the software RAID 5 array from the NAS to my desktop, the kernel seems to detect that there is a RAID array but all these drives aren't part of it. I'm pretty new to RAID and I'm just getting my feet wet with it.
When I try to assemble the RAID array, it just tells me that it isn't an md array. How can I get it to build my array?
[bran@ra ~]$ sudo mdadm --assemble /dev/sdb /dev/sdc /dev/sdd /dev/sde

Sorry I numbered them to show the flow of information, this was also just a place for me to store info as I worked through it. I managed to get it to work by creating a partition that takes up the whole drive and is actually 22 GB larger than all the other drives (since I found out that the had root, swap and home partitions that are no longer needed).
I should be able to resize the other partitions without a problem, correct? They're EXT4. Should I unmount the raid array and do them individually, remount the array, let it sync and do the next? Or just unmount the array, resize all of them, mount it and let it sync?

Code for how to read an integer array from the command prompt...

hello,
Could anyone give me the code for how to read an integer array from the command prompt...its very urgent!..

If you are using a recent version of Java (5 or later) you can use Scanner:

That page has some example code on it, too.

Is it possible to send a 2D text array from a Labview progarm.......

I also posted this on the "Fieldpoint Family" board.
Is it possible to send a 2D text array from my LV program running on my PC to a LV program running in Realtime on my FP2010 Processor?
When I tried to build the RT program using the wizard, it didn't find the array and add it to the "Indicator List:". When I changed the array to a control, it didn't show up in the "Control List:" I tried it with TCP/IP, UDP, DataSocket, and Logos.
If it's possible, then how is it done?
Using LV7.0 Pro on Win2K
Thanks,
Mike

The Fieldpoint Family seems to be taking care of this one:
