Binary File oder Text File

Hello all of you!
Maybe someone could help me with a little problem. I had been writing some sort of BinaryFileFilter to look if a File is a binary File or a normal Textfile.
Does someone know if there is class or method for this??? Or how would you guys solve this problem???
I had been looking for every Character, but this seems to be not enough...
Can anyone help me?

But that is excactly my Problem. So what is the different between a textfile and a binaryfile ?? The Characters are, or not? Or what kind of different is there more? For example a german � or �. Is it a special Character that is only in Binaryfiles or is it even in a german *.txt file?! It could be both, or not. The other way to be sure that it is a binary file is maybe to look at the ending of the filename for example *.bin. But even in that way you cannot be realy sure that it is a binary file.
So, that�s why i asked if someone has an other solution for this problem.

Hi,
In the documentation for the saveAs function it has the following params
cPath The device-independent path in which to save the file.
cConvID (optional, Acrobat 6.0) A conversion ID string that specifies the conversion
file type.
cFS (optional, Acrobat 7.0) A string that specifies the source file system name.
bCopy (optional, Acrobat 7.0) A Boolean value which, if true, saves the PDF file
as a copy. The default is false.
bPromptToOverwrite (optional, Acrobat 7.0) A Boolean value which, if true, prompts the user if
the destination file already exists. The default is false.
In order to get a text file saved you need to specify the correct cConvID.
See the documentation for the valid convID's - http://livedocs.adobe.com/acrobat_sdk/10/Acrobat10_HTMLHelp/JS_API_AcroJS.88.519.html
Please note the Acrobat SDK contains all the information and does not require much installing ( as it is a zip file(on windows) and a disc image (on Mac) it just needs extracted)

Hi
You could use OLE to integrate SAP with Excel - create files, execute macros etc. (search for DOI on SAP help), but this will only work on the presentation server, so you couldn't run it as a service in background. I suppose your e-mails are sent through the internet, hence the requirement for encryption -- or maybe your client doesn't trust its network people! For this you really should use strong encryption -- anything less, you might as well send plain text. One solution to this would be to send the email down a VPDN -- this would encrypt all traffic between source and destination. Another would be to encrypt the file just before it is attached to the email. This could be done within ABAP, but perhaps a third party public key encryptor would be better placed. This could be invoked via a system command call, or as an RFC. A third solution would be to have your mail server handle the encryption.
Heres the link for the above explaination

Binary search in text files

Hi all,
I'm thinking about how to implement a binary sort to get,given a key, a value from a text file with a list of words in order. I saw randomaccessfile for j2se and I know that this work it's usually done by seek functions but how to do the seek work without the File class , with only the InputStream and Reader? I'm talking about the j2me midp 2 cldc 1.1 api, is there some methods or class to use for this thing? How could be implemented a binary search in a text file resident in the /res dir or the JAR or which could be the problems that cannot make possible this staff? If there was something like seek one way could be that one of decide a common length of words to read so going to the half of the text file it's possible with simply multiplication, and the do the binary search things.But for now I haven't found any resources or help.
I hope you can help me to understand, thank you

Hallo all,
it is NOT the problem to locate the text I need to find in the fmb, or fmx.
The problem is that since I want to change not only the text but also some more code around I want to do this in Form Builder - Object Navigator. And I'm not able to discover in which trigger or procedure the text appears.
I do not want to edit fmx, or fmb in a text editor because I suupose theer are some checksums hidden for the format.
-duro
BTW in FMT there is no code seen (only some binary) for v6i as it was in v4.5.

Binary V/s Text files.

What is the difference between binary and text files?
Thank you for your reply.

What is the difference between binary and text files?
Thank you for your reply.They're both just files of (binary) data. The real difference is just in the way that they are read/written. Text files are 'line-delimited', having a sequence of cr/lf combinations (depending on platform) to separate 'lines' of 'text'.

How to convert Labview log file to text file?

I want to open the log file in Excel or other text editor. Is there any special format of Labview log file? I thought it just binary, so I used a general program to convert binary file to Ascii file. But it failed because of the format of the log file format. Is there any other way that I can read log file in Excel? Thanks a lot.

Dennis Knutson wrote:
Are you refering to the front panel logging option? The actual binary format is going to depend on what controls and indicators you have on the front panel and their data types. There is an example of using the file i/o functions to read one of these files in chapter 14 of the user manual. The problem you'll have if you write a program to read a log file is that every time you add or delete a control/indicator, you'll have to rewrite your program and then you'll be unable to read older log files. You'd be better off writing your own log routines. Then you would control the binary format. There are shipping examples that you can look at for fbinary file storage.
Yes, I am referring the front panel logging option and I will read the maual first. Thank you very much for your help.

How can I open in java file a text file?

Hi !
For example I have a java file name Pencil.java and I have a text fie name Box.txt
I want like that if ( a == b ) {open Box.txt}
How can I do that ?
Thanks.

Yes I want to see what this text file contains. Like clicking to a text file with mouse and opens. Then I can see what it contains.
I have a Java document Pencil.java and I have a text file Box.txt
I will write a java code in pencil.java ( that I dont know ). Then when I enter a number from keyboard with
Scanner write = new Scanner(System.in);
int a = write.nextInt()
if (a == b) { } opens Box.txt
For example
I write to command prompt
java pencil
It wants from me a number : I will enter 3.
It is same as b .
Then Box.txt file opens.

sorry read: XSL.
you will have to create your own tool to generate your text file in order to truly ensure the position of your data in the text file.

Script to add description and keywords to files from text file

Can anyone write something up for me? I will admit I cannot do it myself, I do not know Javascript.
I need to add keywords and a description to 1000's of images. I have a text file formatted as such for each 100 images. The script would need to ask for an input file (or I can hardcode the path into the script) and then apply to the current folder of images shown in bridge.
Text file example:
1000 - Bright Sunset Over City. (sun;city;sky;mountain;) .
1001 - Dawn Behind Mountain And Lake. (sun;mountain;water;sky;) .
1002 - Bright Red Sunset, Light Edged Clouds. (sun;sky;tree;clouds;) .
1003 - Tree Framing Sunset Over Bay. (tree;sun;lake;bay;) .
1004 - Sun Behind Gull On Pilings. (seagull;sun;sea;pilings;) .
images are named 1000.tif, 1001.tif, 1002.tif etc
Running on a Mac with CS3 and CS4.
Thanks,
Chris

Hi Paul,
This is nice example, but your script incorrectly sets both dc:description and dc:subject as ordered arrays. Description should be an alt-text type property, and subject is an unordered array (or 'bag'). Some software might not tolerate the incorrect XMP data types.
Here's an example showing the wrong and write way to set these two properties using the XMP Script API:
// load the library
if (ExternalObject.AdobeXMPScript == undefined) {
    ExternalObject.AdobeXMPScript = new ExternalObject("lib:AdobeXMPScript");
var Desc = "Test Description";
var Keys = ["One","Two","Three"];
// The wrong way to set the Description. and Keywords...
var bogusXmp = new XMPMeta();
bogusXmp.appendArrayItem(XMPConst.NS_DC, "description", Desc, 0,XMPConst.ARRAY_IS_ORDERED);
for(var s in Keys){
      bogusXmp.appendArrayItem(XMPConst.NS_DC, "subject", Keys[s], 0,XMPConst.ARRAY_IS_ORDERED);
$.writeln( bogusXmp.dumpObject() );
// The correct way to set the Description and Keywords
var correctXmp = new XMPMeta();
correctXmp.setLocalizedText( XMPConst.NS_DC, "description", null, "x-default", Desc );
for(var s in Keys){
      correctXmp.appendArrayItem(XMPConst.NS_DC, "subject", Keys[s], 0,XMPConst.PROP_IS_ARRAY);
$.writeln( correctXmp.dumpObject() );
Thanks,
David

Binary transfer of text files

I'm trying to do this - edited FTPExtensionMap.txt
accordingly, but get no joy. Files are still going up as ascii.
I've restarted both DW and the OS (Win XP, DW 8). Has anyone
experienced similar? I'm uploading to IIS.
Thanks

Guess I should have scrolled down to the app dev forum before
posting - found my answer - there's two places that file resides
and I edited the wrong one.
Thanks...

Downloading .7z file as text file instead of archive

Firefox has problem downloading .7z file. I read on other post that this is server side related but if I try to download the same file using Internet Explorer it download fine. So there has to be something that can be done to fix this problem.

Changing the setting for alt click didn't help, I press alt after pasting the link and then press enter, open the file in a new tab but still as plain text. I also tried pressing alt 1 sec after pressing enter but the file still appear as text instead of archive.

Quick Time opens internet.wmv files as text files

I'm trying to open internet video files that are generally .wmv files. Quick time does not open them, rather they open in a text format. Ideas? Thanks!

As the above poster said, you can download Windows Media Player for Mac to view .wmv files, or you can use my preferred method. Although it will cost you $9.99, you can download Flip4Mac's WMV Player. This is a Quicktime Codec that allows you to watch .wmv media within Quicktime and within your browser ending up as a complete media solution. You don't need two different applications.
Hope this helps,
Ryan.

Saving a smart folder as an excel file or text file or whatever

I am new to the Mac. I have created a smart folder. I would like to copy the contents of the folder to incude the "Options" I have selected. IE, Date Created, Date Modified.
I want to save this information in a excel file - I want to be able to sort by Date Crated or Date Modified or File Name.
I figured out how to save just the file names - but I really could use this other information.
Any suggestions?

In Adobe Reader you can use File > Save As > Text...
When you want perform this task with a programm you must use Adobe Acrobat.
