Drop files out of zip archiv and deliver?

Is it possible to drop a special filetype (exe) or filenames out of an zip archiv? After deleting the unwanted "archiv-members", the archiv should be delivered.
I need this requirement for specific recipients, not as a "global setting".

While it is possible to drop an archive file if the contents contain a certain attribute ( .exe file, filename, etc... ), at this time I am not aware of any way to remove a *single* portion of that archive and deliver the rest of the contents.
I would envision the difficulty would lie in re-assembling the archive correctly, so the recipient did not receive a "broken" file.

Print xls-file out of optical archive

Hello archive-gurus,
I'm storing xls-files in our optical archive which are bound with several business objects. I'd like to print the files out of the archive.
Does somebody know, if that's possible? Is there a FM?
Thanks,
Martin

Hi Martin,
If this is SAP standard object there will already be function modules/programs available to read from archive. Check transaction AOBJ and setting of the object. There you can find the read program.
But if it is custum object, you have write the read program yourself using FM ARCHIVE*
Also check the following site

Compressing several large (50Mb+) files into a ZIP archive, ErrorHeapsize.

Hello community!
I am working on an application where a user can order an archive for download, containing files the user has selected. What I need is a ZIP utility which can compress files with a reasonable memory usage. That is, if a user selects 500-1000 Mb, it will not consume 1Gb or more of memory. (The individual files are between 50-200Mb)
I have tried the Java.util.ZIP library, TrueZIP and Jakarta Compress but found neither of my sollutions with their software useful. My current TrueZIP sollution works for < 250Mb of files, but this is insufficient for the users need.
TrueZIP has so far solved the decompress part, as I have succesfully decompressed ~800Mb of data with no adjustments of the VM heap space maximum.
I can't help but feel this could be possible somehow.
Has any of you experience with similar problem? Do I have to settle for adjusting the heap space to the largest archive the software will allow?

it sounds like your program is responsible for both the compression and the decompression, if this is case:
You should break your initial file into smaller peices, archive them, and send them to the client, who can reassemble them using your program so that the process is transparent.

If tempdb .mdf file out of disk space and we do nothing to fix, what could happen? Will anything crash?

Will anything crash or stop working if tempdb .mdf file out of disk space?

It might crash, sql server will stop responding or you may not able to perform any action until space allocated to tempdb.
Running out of disk space in tempdb can cause significant disruptions in the SQL Server production environment and can prohibit applications that are running from completing operations.

Simple question: I can't get my files out of the trash and back in iMovie

I was working on a project just now and iMovie crashed on me. Fortunately, all the clips I was importing were saved in the iMovie trash, but I can't drag them out of the trash and back into the clip menu! There's got to be something simple I'm doing wrong. Help!

If the project is saved on an external drive, check the disk format. And rule out software compatibility issues with third-party iMovie plug-ins and QuickTime codecs.

How To Unzip files from Compress Zip Archive Folder?

Hi Friends,
I had compressed my docx files or images files in zip folder last month but unfortunately that folder has corrupted or damaged due to malware infections. But I am not
sure about that what reason behind of zip file get corrupt and inaccessible. If anyone knows about such tools which repair corrupt zip files quickly then shares with me that software information detail.
Thanks

Looking for un-zip/rar software that lets me see the contents of archive and extract single files

I work with lots of rar and zip archives, and often times i need to view the contents with out extraction, and/or just extract a single file out of a larger archive. Some archives can be upper of 5gb, extracting the entire archive for 1 10meg file gets tedious.
I've tried unrarX and the unarchiaver both just instantly start extraction and don't allow me to see the contents of the file.
WinRar on PC is what i'm trying to emulate, with no success so far.
Any suggestions?

[ZIP Archive] Append files to an existing archive

Hi to all,
I have an existing file that contains a ZIP archive. I want to add some files to this archive. I have seen in another thread that it's mandatory to read all the structures and construct a new zip file in order to add other files?
Is it true?
In this thread, someone proposes a method that performs this job
<quote>
      * Loads a zip file for appending files
      * @param file The old zip archive
      * @param newFile The new zip archive
      * NOTE: This method will write a new file and data to an archive, to
             * write an existing file, we must first read the data frm the file,
      * then you could call this method.
     public ZipOutputStream loadZipFile(File file, File newFile)
       ZipOutputStream zipOutput = null;
       ZipFile zipFile = null;
       Enumeration zippedFiles = null;
       ZipEntry currEntry = null;
       ZipEntry entry = null;
       try {
          zipFile = new ZipFile( file.getAbsolutePath() );
          //get an enumeration of all existing entries
          zippedFiles = zipFile.entries();
          //create your output zip file
          zipOutput = new ZipOutputStream(new FileOutputStream (newFile));
          //Get all the data out of the previously zipped files and write it to a new ZipEntry to go into a new file archive
          while (zippedFiles.hasMoreElements())
               //Retrieve entry of existing files
               currEntry = (ZipEntry)zippedFiles.nextElement();
               //Read data from existing file
               BufferedReader reader = new BufferedReader( new InputStreamReader( zipFile.getInputStream( currEntry ) ) );
               String currentLine = null;
               StringBuffer buffer = new StringBuffer();
               while( (currentLine = reader.readLine() ) != null )
                    buffer.append( currentLine);
               //Commit the data
               zipOutput.putNextEntry(new ZipEntry(currEntry.getName()) ) ;
               zipOutput.write (buffer.toString().getBytes() );
               zipOutput.flush();
               zipOutput.closeEntry();
          //Close the old zip file
          zipFile.close();
          return zipOutput;
        catch (Exception e)
             Logger.error("LoadZipFile", e);
             System.out.println("Fatal error: "+e);
        return null;

It runs fine but all the file contained in the archive are on a singlie line.
E.g. I have a text file in the original archive. When adding another stuff in the archive and by using this method, my orignal text file has its content on only one line.
Could someone help with this bug?
Kind regards,
St�phane

yes it is true. You can only create a new archive with the added file(s) inside, there is nothing to happen an existing file to an existing zip file.
Good luck

Still loose ability to drag and drop files in Project pane.

In the last two weeks, I've had two instances where I lost
the ability to drag and drop files within the Project pane.
However, here's the kicker...the problem doesn't manefest itself
until after I end my session, close RH, then restart the computer
and restart the project. That means I don't know that I'm working
in a broken project until AFTER I've zipped up and saved the
current project. I tried addressing this in this orum once already
and I received some suggested fixes (included in the list below)
but it never fixed and and has happened again.
Some pieces of information:
- I've deleted the .xpj and cpd files, no joy.
- I've regenerated the output, then tried to move a file, no
joy.
- I've generated a CHM (supposedy to update other files), no
joy.
- I'm not attempting to move a file to a directory where that
name already exists
- If while I'm having the problem, I create a nw project, new
folders, and new topics, they move around fine.
- If I create a topic IN the directory with the problem, I
cannot move that file.
- I've zippd up a broken project and sent it to Adobe. They
openned it and it was fine. They zipped it back to me and it still
wasn't.
- If I create a new project, replicate my directory
structure, and import the htm files into the new structure (a
ubdirectory at a time), the files move fine.
- I'm only working local on Windows 2000 with 30 GB of disk
space, and I have not installed anything else on the computer in
the last 2 weeks.
- I've escalated this to the next level at Adobe and am
sitting by my phone with my headset waiting for the call back
"within the next two hours".
Anyone seen this?

I'm not sure on the exact details of your process, but if you
open the project after unzipping it, perhaps the unzip process has
changed that file attribute...?
I appreciate your response, but no...all files and
directories had all permissions allowed. The zip process wasn't
involved until aftrer the problem showed itself...I zip just for
backup with the hope that I never have to go to it. It was my
working project that lost the ability to move files. It just turns
out that after it happened and I went to the zip that it showed
that the problem had affected the files before I zipped them and
therefore, the zip was of the broken set.

Automate renaming files within zip archive

I have a large number of files where I need to do the following:
Change the file extension to .zip. (The files are zip archives but with a special extension, and all of the files have their own extension, ie .xx01, .xx02, etc...)
Extract the zip file.
Rename a file within. (Alternatively, it'd be great to be able to rename the file without extracting the zip file.)
Recompress the file.
Set the file extension back to what it was.
I've been playing around in Automator to see if I could create a workflow that would do some or all of this. I've figured out changing the file extension, and Automator has an action to compress a zip file, but the other parts are eluding me.
Does anyone know a way to make this process a little less labor intensive? I'd prefer to automate the whole thing, but even just some way to rename a file in a .zip archive without extracting it first would be hugely helpful. (I know this is possible under Windows.)
I'm comfortable with delving into new territory in Automator, AppleScript, or shell scripts to make this easier.
Thanks!

We had a similar problem
It turned out to be a feature and not a bug
Actually 'vanilla' XP handles those files and is able to open them and it seems that the problem appears only after updating the XP to fix the vulnerability described in:
http://www.microsoft.com/technet/treeview/default.asp?url=/technet/security/bulletin/MS02-054.asp
What we have determined is that if the zip file contains '/' at the begining of the path - the compressed folder utility will refuse to open it and will show only a blank pane in explorer. Removing the '/' from path in zip file solves the problem on updated Windows XP.

Old DW4 website files - how do I access and use .zip files?

I have been given a .zip file of a now defunct website (Dreamweaver 4) which I wish to ressurrect! Do I need DW4 to access these website files or are the newer versions backward complient? Absolute novice so any advice/assistance gratefully appreciated. Thanks.

1. Double click your .zip file and drag the contents out onto your desktop to extract the archive.
     Don't just attempt to use the files in the .zip archive within DW without moving them out.
     They will appear to be "browseable" to your OS, but they won't/can't work as a website while in the archive
2. Make sure all of the files are within a single folder (not the Desktop itself)
     Desktop > MyWebsiteName > all website files
3. From your current version of DW, go to Site > New Site...
4. Give the site a name and browse to the folder from Step 2 for Local Site Folder
5. If you have your FTP info, you can enter it under Servers at this time, but you don't need it right away to create the Site Definition to start working with DW
6. Hit Save
From there on out, you will work from DW while your site name from Step 4 is displayed in the left dropdown menu of the Files Window (go to Window > Files or hit F8 if it's not visible)
Snakeyez warning about deprecated features will likely be your biggest hurdle while working on an old site in a new version of DW. Hopefully, the original creator didn't use much of the old DW Spry based functionality.

To ZIP all files into a single ZIP archive

hi,
Can anybody suggest me how to Zip mutiple files into single Zip archive.

Hi,
use Winzip :).Or jar all your files with JAVA. And then rename the
extension to .zip. In fact a .jar file is a .zip file.

Drag and Drop Files Onto EXE Icon

I was wondering if there is a way to have the user drag and drop files onto the .exe icon and this would initiate the program to do something with those files automatically?
For example: Some PDF convertor programs allow you to drag and drop documents, images, etc. directly onto the PDF convertor icon on your desktop and it will automatically convert them all to PDF's, without the user even having to open the program.
Can this same type of functionality be done with a Labview EXE file?
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Thank you! That did it.
The only side note that I would include to others that are trying this is to make sure you have the "Pass All Command Line Arguments to Application" box checked in the "Advanced" section when you build the executable.
