Extracting file name from directory folder (~cont)

what if I want to retrieve indiviual files of a certain file type...e.g. *.jsp file type, from a directory folder??

You can implement a FileFilter, then use the listFiles method of the File class to return the related files:
import java.io*;
public class JspFileFilter implements FileFilter {
     public boolean accept(File pathname) {
          return (pathname.getName().endsWith(".jsp"));
     public static void main(String[] args) {
          File directory = new File("c:/web");
          File[] jspFiles = directory.listFiles(new JspFileFilter());
          for (int i=0;i<jspFiles.length;i++) {
               System.out.println(jspFiles[ i ].getName());
}

Retreiving the file names from directory inside another directory from application server

Hi,
I had a problem in retreiving the file names from a directory inside another directory.
I tried using the FM's SUBST_GET_FILE_LIST, RZL_READ_DIR_LOCAL and EPS_GET_DIRECTORY_LISTING
But here I am getting only one directory details.
Actually my file is located a directory inside one more directory and one more directory and inside the files are located.
i.e total 3 directories inside the 3rd one my files are there.
I need to read the latest file name in the directory.
So that i can do some manipulation after getting the file name.
Is there option like OPEN DATASET , READ DATASET and CLOSE DATASET?
Can anyone please let me know How can i acheive this one.
Regards
Ram

How to get the file name from downloads folder with the applescript??

Hi All..
I am downloading an application to downloads folder, I need to install the same application after downloading programatically.
So how do I get the filename in runtime while downloading or after downloading from downloads folder with Applescript or Java?
Also my download URL link doesnot contain full name of the download file.
Pls suggest.

Hi,
The best method is to use curl.
Other methods are not reliable, but can work, it depends on several factors (what the script does, what the user does).
Here is an example with the curl command:
set tUrl to "http://sourceforge.net/projects/vlc/files/2.0.4/macosx/vlc-2.0.4.dmg/download?ac cel_key=60%3A1350656196%3Ahttp%253A//www.videolan.org/vlc/download-macosx.html%3 A7233e4e9%245818d66f39b0576e1e9c4a0f3b46b1991180bfdd&click_id=976a88ee-19f7-11e2 -9a21-0200ac1d1d8e&source=accel"
set dFolder to path to downloads folder
tell application "Finder" to set newFolder to (make new folder at dFolder) as string
set f to quoted form of POSIX path of newFolder
do shell script "cd " & f & " && curl -L " & tUrl & " -o 'vlc.dmg'" -- download to file "vlc.dmg"
set downloadedFile to newFolder & "vlc.dmg" --<-- HFS path
--do something with the downloadedFile

Find the File name from directory

Hi Experts,
My Scenario is:
Pick the file from the Directory, Based on the file name, get the Q information from R/3 system and place the file into MQ.
My Question is : How can I get the file name?, any one please guide me..
Thanks for your help,
Thanks,
SR

HI SR
You need to enable the Adapter-Specific Message Attributes
enable the FileName under this. Enabling this will allow to have this parameter as XI header
You can check this value is generated or not using SXMB_MONI -> Inbound message -> SOAP header -> Dynamic Configuration.
This will be captured under http://sap.com/xi/XI/System/File name = FIleNameu201D
Now code given by Anand above will allow you to use this FileName in mapping. Based on this you can check R/3 system for relevant file.
Hope this make you confortable with filename concept
Thanks

Can I use file names from some folder to specisfly a value of a variable

so here is the thing I want to do:
I've got like 3 variables in my swf file which value tells to
the code how many picture there are to load.
So I have like
var totalPics:Number = 5
in my folder images I have 5 pics, but I want to put 3 more
so I want to make suck code that will check the total files in the
folder and return a value of 8 or check the name of the last file
found in the foulder like pic8.swf (I've made it into swf to load
in a loader) and to take that letter 8 from it as a value to put in
the variable totalPics so it is = 8.
Can u tell me is this possible to make in flash.... where I
should read helps or guides .. or just give me a simple example
please.
Thank u a lot. If u have any more questions, just ask me..

Very helpful of you guys ;] Thanks a lot.. so lets continue
on the matter..
GWD the second option is good but can work in a simplier
code.. mine is a bit complexed and by that I mean.. that the total
number of pics or things to load should be known for the main swf
file at his start. That is because before the turn for the pics to
load comes, there is something else that must happen first, and it
depends on that total number (actually 3 total numbers cuz there
are 3 folders with different pics that must mix) So.. can't use the
second option cuz it works good when the code is a bit more simple
than that.
If u didn't understand whant I tried to explain.. doesn't
matter.. not so important atm.
Now the thing with the LoadVars.. yes, I've been thinking the
same thing but like this: At the 1st frame in the main timeline I
have 3 variables that are used further in the code and that must be
predefined by how many pics there actually are, so.. I've been
thining to make 3 different var1.txt, var2.txt and var3.txt files
for example and to put there as value just the number I need. So
when I add more pics for example to my images folder, I edit the
txt file containing their total number and just change it so the
code can automatically add the new pics to the sequence.
I've got some examples of this how LoadVars works with txt
files and I think I can manage to do that, but anyway would be nice
of you to give me some example ;] and of course correct me if my
toughts above are not true.
Now.. SumTsb.. what u mentioned, I am interested in, because
I have a PHP guy, who can make me a code that automatically counts
and gives back the totalPics number from a certain folder (I don't
know for sure that it is possible but if it is he can do it). My
point is.. When he makes this code.. that reterns value of
totalPics, how can I redirect it so it changes the value of
totalPics inside my main swf file. I see only this as option at the
moment:
1) when someone adds or deletes files from the folder the php
code returns a different value, equal to the number of files in the
folder, and automatically changes the content of the file var1.txt
like this:
First off var1.txt has: &content=10 // this is the total
number of pics/swf files in the folder;
when u add.. like 3 more files.. the php code changes the
value inside of var1.txt to: &content=13 and when the main swf
is started he takes the new value and my problem is solved. Is this
what I say as example true ? If it is I guess the only thing left
for me is the php programer to make his code and job is done.
But answer me this question too: is it possible the php code
to return the value of the totalPics directly into the main swf
file. So if I have inside the main swf a variable at the first
frame ot the main timeline called totalPics, can the php give it a
value equal to the total numbers of files in a folder, and how ?
I guess I've written too too much :D so I'll wait what u will
answer me now.. I think you understood my idea.. and if more
questions arise I will write u back. And if no.. I will just thank
you a lot :D

Export File Names from a Folder to a Database Program

Ok, so this one probably fairly simple, I just cant seem to figure out how to do it. I have a folder containing over 200 file names. It is my wish to figure out a way to import all the file names (just the names) into a document, preferably an MS excel doc. I assume their is a way to do this with auditor maybe, but I am not sure. Any one know how to do this.

Need help getting files names from directory

I have never done anything in php before and I'm struggling.
In an attempt to search through potential document names in a directory, I've added the following code to a new php document:
<?php
if ($handle = opendir('.')) {
    while (false !== ($file = readdir($handle))) {
        if ($file != "." && $file != "..") {
            echo "$file\n";
    closedir($handle);
?>
with no luck. When executed all I get is a blank screen. Any ideas why?
End goal is to list the file names in the directory so that the user can choose to open desired document. Thanks!

In addition, this:
String filename = files;Should be this:
String filename = files;

Offline Folder can not chaange the letter of a file name from capital to lowercase

Dear Expert,
we deploy the offline folder to end users, there is a strange issue happened now, if user tries to change the letter of a file name from capital to lowercase, the system will show "You need permission to perform this aciton". But other actions
are fine, like, create, delete, rename, etc.

Hi,
Please check if the offline folder is made available offline to end users. The Offline Files feature uses the client-side cache (CSC) database. When the files are made available offline, the CSC database prevents users from changing the case of file
names.
For more detailed information, please refer to the article below:
You cannot rename files by using different case when the files are made available offline in Windows Vista or in Windows 7
