Displaying File Path

I need to display the File path on the header(Blue colored bar with the name of the app) of a swing application. I want it where the Java Icon is displayed . Is there anyway to grab the File location information and display it .
thanks

Unfortunately I'm not using a JFrame. My application extends a Window for which there is I can't do the above suggested. Is there a way to display information on the Window

  • 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 :)

  • File Path and Name field does not display correct path

    We are using Crystal 2008 along with VS 2005. We embed the special "File Path and Name" field  inside our report and it displays the correct path when viewed inside Crystal reports:
    C:\Program Files\reports\Chart.rpt
    When run through the web and viewed in the DHTML viewer, the file name and path appear as follows:
    C:\Windows\TEMP\Chart {02152A43-3339-4C03-A50A-E281E1D391AF}.rpt
    How can this be corrected?
    Thanks in advance for any assistance.

    This is a known issue tracked under ADAPT0000962216. At this time I do not know when this will be resolved, however Service Pack 2 for CR 2008 is targeted to be released by September and this may contain the fix.

  • "File Path and Name" field not displaying correctly

    Post Author: DaveWoo
    CA Forum: General
    Hello,Here's my situation: I'm currently upgrading from Crystal Reports for Visual Studio .NET 2003 to Crystal Reports for Visual Studio 2005. I have several reports (programmatically generated using VB.NET) that use the "File Path and Name" special field. Now, in the old version of Crystal Reports (2003), the field properly displayed the original file path and name; however, in the new version (2005), the field displays as "C:\DOCUME1\Username\LOCALS1\Temp\Filename{F2459406-3719-4C8B-917C-4A7055A18C76}.tmp" - in other words, the location of the temporary .rpt file.How do I get the "File Path and Name" field to correctly display the path & name of the original file, like it did in the prior version?- Dave

  • Display the full file path in title bar

    I apologize for my username. After getting a ton of "username already exists" I went to the keyboard crushing technique to find one that didn't.
    We currently use Adobe Acrobat 9.5.4
    I am assisting a user who would like the full file path of the opened PDF to display in Adobe's title bar. Right now it only displays the file name, as shown below -
    Instead of "Adbove Community_ Start New Discussion.pdf" he would ideally like to have "C:\users\unamehere\desktop\filename.pdf" or the full UNC path like "\\myserver\department\projectnumber\filename.pdf".
    Is this possible? Thank you in advance for any assistance you may be able to provide.

    Tell me about usernames...
    Unfortunately, I don't think there's any control of this. Adobe regularly change what appears, but they don't let us do it.

  • Dreamweaver CS6 - MAC: How do I view / display a file path in code view?

    I work with complex applications / sites that use cross-browser ajax calls and different configurations. We use two different prod servers which flip/flop for active while the other is a backup. I need the ability to see (from a root level) exactly which file I'm looking at. This seems like a no-brainer, but I have had no luck finding anything related to it. Please help.

    The first item in the "Coding Toolbar" (the left hand side of the code window) that looks like a file icon with a little black down arrow will show you the file path.
    I know it's not great for your purpose. It should be visible all the time (perhaps on the bottom of the window that is virtually empty.) You should request this to Adobe.

  • How to get a list of file paths for all files used in a project

    I have a project in Premiere Pro CC which has a large number of bins.  A sequence in one of these bins uses files from other bins.  I am trying to find the locations of all each of the files used  in the project.
    1)  Obviously I can select each clip in the timeline and show in finder, but there a lot of clips
    2) The video usage associated with each file in the project would help.  However
               1.  I haven't found a way to display only clips that have video useage if all of the bins have not been expanded.
              2.  Video usage  shows usage for all sequences, so one would have to manually check the pull down for each file to see if it is used in the sequence in question.
    3) I tried exporting the project to final cut pro xml.  The path url gives me the information that I need.  For some reason, however, when I do the export only one clip's information is there, not the information for all of the other clips in the project.
    4) I tired an export for speedgrade and all of the file names are there.  However the paths are not. 
    Basically I want to find all of the files in the project and relocate them to a specific folder for that project.  There's got to be a way to do this but I'm not seeing it ....

    Thanks for the suggestion concerning the file path.  And certainly it would have been nice to have done this before beginning.  However this is a project that has been around for quite a while, and the files have been moved into different bins.  And now the project sequence is being revised.
    So the problem is, worded slightly differently, how can I search all of the bins for the files that are used just by this sequence, ignoring the files which are used by other sequences?  Or, how can I get a list of the file paths of the files that are used in the sequence?

  • How to Print File Path and File Name at the bottom of the Report?

    Hi guys,
    I have situation where i have to display my file path where i save my file. For example: U:\Reports\Monthly_Reports\Compay_xyz.jsp
    also, after the file path line if its possible i would like to display the date where the last modification done on the file.
    I read one of the post and some one suggested that use srw.get_report_name() but since i am a new to Reporting i am not sure how to use it.
    Can anyone describe me little bit in detail please?
    Thank You.

    Hi,
    Your logic seems to be fine and you should put it in the additional plsql code section "After displaying the page". But you may have to check you syntax by compiling it. You cannot use "LINEFEED". It should be '<br>'. This is the line break in html. Please check your type declaration. Also some ';' is missing after some statements.
    Hope that helps.
    Thanks,

    Hi Richard,
    Run this in the script editor:
    set f to choose file
    close access f
    Navigate to the file you left open. Probably there was an error and the file was left open because it never reached the 'close access' command.

  • Logical file path problem in lsmw

    Hi folks,
    I created logical file  path in FILE tcode. its created and assigned physical file path to logical file path.
    then i am assigning that logical file path into lsmw step (specify file step).
    under specify file i am assigning into import data and convert data.
    once read data step completed read data must be save under this physical file but data is not saving under this path.
    can any one help me out this..
    1.can any one help how to create physical file in file tcode
    2.how to assigne that physical file to lsmw step specify file

    Hi Srikanth,
    There is no need to create the logical file path using the FILE transaction.
    Under Specify file step, you need to give your local file path in LEGACY DATA Section.
    Please check the below link in using the LSMW step by step.

  • Difference between logical file path and physical file path

    Hi,
    Can anyone tell me why logical file path is required and why physical file path is required? What exactly is the difference bet them?
    Thanks in advance.
    Regards,
    PS.

    Hi,
    The function module FILE_GET_NAME convert a logical path into its corresponding physical path.
    The advantage of using logical pathes within your applications is obivous:
    If you need to change the physical path you just adjust it within transaction FILE yet no changes are required to your application.

    The file names that you use in ABAP statements for processing files are physical names. This means that they must be syntactically correct filenames for the operating system under which your R/3 System is running. Once you have created a file from an ABAP program with a particular name and path, you can find the same file using the same name and path at operating system level.
    Since the naming conventions for files and paths differ from operating system to operating system, ABAP programs are only portable from one operating system to another if you use the tools described below.
    To make programs portable, the R/3 System has a concept of logical filenames and paths. These are linked to physical files and paths. The links are created in special tables, which you can maintain according to your own requirements. In an ABAP program, you can then use the function module FILE_GET_NAME to generate a physical filename from a logical one.
    Maintaining platform-independent filenames is part of Customizing. For a full description, choose Tools ® Business Engineer ® Customizing, followed by
    Implement. projects ® SAP Reference IMG. On the next screen, choose Basis Components System Administration ® Platform-independent File Names.
    For a more detailed description of the function module FILE_GET_NAME, enter its name on the initial screen of the Function Builder and choose Goto Documentation. On the next screen, choose Function module doc.
    Another way of maintaining platform-independent filenames is to use the Transaction FILE. The following sections provide an overview of the transaction.
    To create a logical filename, choose Logical filename definition, client-independent from the Navigation group box in Transaction FILE, then choose New entries. You define logical filenames
    You can either define a logical filename and link it to a logical path (as displayed here), or you can enter the full physical filename in the Physical file field. In the latter case, the logical filename is only valid for one operating system. The rules for entering the complete physical filename are the same as for the definition of the physical path for the logical file. To display further information and a list of reserved words, choose Help.
    If you link a logical path to a logical file, the logical file is valid for all syntax groups that have been maintained for that logical path. The filename specified under Physical file replaces the reserved word  in the physical paths that are assigned to the logical path. To make the name independent of the operating system, use names that begin with a letter, contain up to 8 letters, and do not contain special characters.
    Save your changes.

  • Full file path in Office 2007 when open or save

    Am not sure i can raise this question here.
    We are using 10gR2 Application server and Windows 7 as a Client. In the client machine we have installed the Microsoft Office 2007.
    From the forms we are trying to open and save (after changes) the files of format Doc/Xls. These files will be stored in separate shared folder accessible through Application server and client.
    Now the issue is when we open/save the file it shows the Entire path (In Saving Window) which should not happen. In previous release of MS office its not like this.
    Please help us "to hide the file path to be displayed to the user". Like changing the registry for Office 2007 or workarounds or new solutions or any other oracle's product.
    Note : Showing the file name is the Office 2007s default behavior.

    The only way to avoid showing this from a Forms point of view would be to not display the open/save file dialog in the first place. In other words, control the opening and saving using your own custom dialogs. Also, be aware that using remote drives (network mapped) may cause problems. Generally speaking, doing this would not be considered supported.
    As for opening documents on the client, there is no need to use the open file dialog if you know the file name and path to that file in advance. You can simply use WebUtil's CLIENT_HOST. So let's say you wanted to open a file named mySales.doc and you knew its location, all you would need to do is this:
    Declare
         my_cmd varchar2(255);
    Begin
         my_cmd := 'rundll32 shell32,ShellExec_RunDLL '|| :t1;
         CLIENT_HOST(my_cmd);
    End;In the above example, +:t1+ is a text field on a canvas. The value would include the path and file name to be opened. Of course this could be a pl/sql variable which you programatically populate or any combination of that. The value value must include the full path (with drive letter) and full file name. If the path or name contains spaces, double quotes may likely be necessary. You will have to test.
    For saving an opened file, you are mostly out of luck from Forms unless you took control of Word/Excel as it was being opened in the first place. For example you likely can open the Office products using OLE or VB or other macro and control what the open and file save dialogs look like or if they are even accessible at all. But this has nothing to do with Oracle or specifically Forms.
    You need to refer to the MS documentation.
