File path problem and getCodeBase Usage

I have a java application and read data from file.
I create file by File file=new File("F:\MyProgram\.txt');
if I want to give my file to relative path name, HOw can i give. I can move my program to jar file or exe and move to anywhere.
How can i give file to move anywhere by only give folder name and don't need to give full path name?
How can I use getCodeBase to give file path name?

You need to use resources and the URL class, here's an example:URL resourceLocation = getClass().getResource("/configuration.txt");That will give the location of the configuration file regardless of how you've packaged the software. If you need to read the file from a static context use "ClassName.class" in place of "getClass()".

First of all, to troubleshoot the problem it would help to put some filepath indicators at each point so that you can see what is going on. Also, in your exe having an error dialog "Simple Error Handler.vi" to let you know what LabVIEW didn't like in the exe.
Now, when you run a top level ("Main.vi") and use the "Current VI's Path " in the development mode it returns <Filepath>\"Current path"\Main.vi. So stripping once will get you to <Filepath>\"Current path" . Now if you make it into an exe the "Current VI's Path" returns <Filepath>\"Current path"\"Name.exe"\Main.vi so you are "nested" one deeper.
I use the following construct to determine whether the vi is being used as in the development environment or as an exe, the parse the path accordingly, although in this instance it is used to supply different directory names to a little more complex file system.

File path problems between mac and PC

hi
I'm having some issues with file paths, done a lot of searching online, here and on creative cow and no answers to be found (same question asked a few times though).
I'm working on projects on a MAC and then collecting files (project only) to a watch folder on a PC for rendering.
Most of the really big files (.R3D) are located locally on the PC but a few files are on a server.
I can work on them fine on my Mac but when the project comes across to the PC it can find the files located on one of its drives (the same drive as the project source folder) but loses the filepath to the server and to the other internal drive as well.
I have to open the project on the PC and repoint to the missing footage and then save which is a real pain in the #@$% and kind of defeats the purpose of the distributed rendering.
how can I set absolute paths for the PCs from my MAC ????
cheers../daniel

Hey, sorry Mylenium, but this statement is not true. I was almost convinced to give up after reading this, but I managed to make a working conversion tool shortly after.
This is the method in After Effects, I am pretty sure that it can work in the rest of the adobe suite as well.
All you need to do to get the paths to update to windows format is to:
1. Select "Save as xml" and save an .aepx.
2. Open the .aepx in text edit.
3. Perform a find for "/Volumes" and replace with "//<MountPointOnThePC>" (for example I have the drive as a network drive on the pc so I swap the <MountPointOnThePC> to the name of my mac as that is the path on the pc machine)
4. Perform another find for "MacPOSIX" and replace with "Win"
5. Save your file and you will be able to open in on a pc with all the files online.
Disclaimer, I built this to work on my set up using a mac server and a pc render farm for after effects. Please back up your projects before opening them and editing them.
Hope this helps anyone else trying to do the same.

                 For the first time I am sending request to the servlet and after checking the conditions we will get one confirmation box.
If we click ok (i.e true) ,we have to again send the same data to the servlet.
I am keeping all the variables in a session in servlet and retrieving in to jsp, but the problem is ,when again sending request to servlet , I am missing file name,but I am getting file path(i.e c:/sun/appserver/bin/) only.
I need to get c://sun/appserver/bin How can i get entire path??
Here is my servlet code
File f = new File(xmlFileName);
String     xmlFilePath = f.getAbsolutePath();
System.out.println("xmlFilePath"+xmlFilePath);
session.setAttribute("xmlFile",xmlFilePath);Here is my java script code
function init() {
     <%
          if(message !=null && messageType != null && messageType.equals("ALERT")){ %>
          var mss = confirm("<%=message%>");
        // alert(mss);
           if(mss == true)
      var user = '<%=session.getAttribute("user")!=null?session.getAttribute("user"):"0"%>';
        var pass = '<%=session.getAttribute("pass")!=null?session.getAttribute("pass"):"0"%>';
     var xmlF = '<%=session.getAttribute("xmlFile")!=null?session.getAttribute("xmlFile"):"0"%>';
                alert("inside if"+xmlF);
                document.forms[0].resubmit.value = "true"
                document.forms[0].userName.value =user;
                alert(document.forms[0].userName.value);
                document.forms[0].passWord.value=pass;
                alert(document.forms[0].passWord.value);
                document.forms[0].xmlFile.value=xmlF;
                alert(document.forms[0].xmlFile.value);
                doSubmit();
          else
               alert("else");
     <% } %>
function doSubmit() {
                   alert(document.forms[0].userName.value);
                   alert(document.forms[0].passWord.value);

Thanks for u r reply Mr.Prasad.
Sorry for the delay for reply.
My scenario is in 2 phases
Phase 1. I am taking input from the front end using jsp and writing the contents in to a file and then downloading that file on to my desktop.(Now let us say this one as file downloading)
Phase 2. Now I had designed a page,which locates the downloaded file by using the following tag.
                    <td><input type ="file" name ="xmlFileName"></td>
    In the downloaded xml file I am having applicationid. I am checking whether the application id already xists in the database (or)not.
If already exists in the database , the end user will get one confirmation msg,saying application already exists in the database.
If the user clicks ok again the request has to go to the servlet.
Now the actual problems are
1. When I locate the file on the desktop let us say c:\desktop\krish and click on submit button, it is locating to the file that is present in the server(this is the case for the first time means before checking the application id in the database).
2. when the end user clicks "ok" on the confirmation box , I am not getting the file name,that has to be submitted to the servlet.
Can u plz help me how to resolve this issue.
regards,
Krish

I'd check to ensure that you have the latest versions of the
WebAssist extensions as this may have been fixed. I seem to recall
seeing this issue when the primary browser (from Dreamweaver's
perspective, the one that F12 or preview in browser opens up) is
not open when the help is accessed. Try having your browser open
and then access the help.

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.

File sharing problems and horror story (nearly)

I use Leopard on a MacBook Pro, a MacBook and a iMac G4 800 MHz (unsupported model).
I have on the iMac and the MacBook Pro many users (the same ont he two machines) and I always use Fast User Switching.
I have had very few problems with Leopard until now; I like it even if there are some glitches or some new features which are not my cup of tea (hierarchical menus missing from the dock, stacks useless when there are many items, FireWall impossibilities (?) to open specific ports, Back to my Mac working on a Lan but not from outside until now, problems with a few apps (Parallels networking erratic), ...
Now about File Sharing.
Let say my main account is user1 (Administrator), and I have another user2 also administrator, plus user3, user4 standard users.
On the iMac I activate File Sharing.
On the MacBookPro, as user1, if I connect to the iMac Server (using afp://IPaddress_of_theiMac/) I do NOT get the dialog
"Enter your user name and password to access file server YYY
Connect to server as Guest or as Registered User"
but I directly get the dialog
"Select the volumes you want to mount on YYY"
From this, if I select user1 it mounts with full read/write permissions which is normal. It appears that I am connected with my Apple account user1&mac.com (same as mentionned in the Account panel of System Preferences).
On the other hand, if I try to connect to the user2 account, I only get limited access although in the File Sharing Preferences, user1/iMac is mentionned with full Read/Write preferences for the Home Folder of user2.
What is very surprising is that if I log on the MacBook Pro as user2, or user 3 or user4, then connect to the iMac, I first get the dialog to enter a user name and a password. This gives me access with the correct full permissions on user1/iMac or user2/iMac using the corresponding user name/password pair; this is the usual behaviour which is missing when trying to connect from user1/MacBook Pro.
Now for the Horror Story!
Trying to understand what was going on with the permissions of the user2/iMac account, I logged in to the iMac as user1, went to the Users folder and from there had a look on the informations about user2 home folder. In the lower part of the pannel, Sharing & Permissions says "You have no access" (which is normal) and this is followed by a table where users and permissions are listed. It seems user1 has Read and Write access in contradiction with the preceding phrase...
Anyway, I tried to modify these authorizations for user2 by clicking on the lock of the Information pannel and entering name and password of the administrator. Didn't go farther than that. By mistake, I hit Command-Delete and user2 was GONE from the list AND NOT ONLY from the list in the Information window! Using Fast User Switching and going to user2, nothing left on the Desktop and NO Home anymore.
In the System Preferences/Accounts panel, user2 was still mentionned.
In the Users folder, no user2 folder anymore.
Using once again Fast User Switching, I logged as user2 and got by magic an all new Home. Nothing left in Documents, Library or other user1 folders. Standard settings for icons, dock, etc.
My first move has been to use a very recent backup to restore everything (Thank you Mike Bombich from Copy Cloner!).
Once everything was back to normal, I had a look at the Trash from user1 and guess what, the Home folder of user2 was there, complete.
So now I am left with two questions
why is it I do not have the same dialogs when connecting from all the accounts although as far as I can see, configurations are the same?
why is it possible, from an Information pannel to delete the account of another user?
Thank you all for comments!

Dynamic file path problem....

Hello & thanks for your attention
I am trying to modify the action script(2) of a XML photo slideshow
I want to make it pull the photo array from a dynamic XML file
Yet nothing I try seems to be working - I was hoping someone could look at these snippets and tell me if I'm doing something incorrectly
Objective:
To make the swf file - pull its photo array - from a dynamic XML file path
Scenario:
http://www.reallivingtours.com/tours/viewTour.php?id=2092
When that URL is called by a browser
An XML file called 2092.xml is created in a /tmp/ directory
viewTour.php passes the ‘dynamic’ file path to the swf via the params
<param name="movie" value="slideshow.swf?file=tmp/<?php echo $tourID; ?>.xml">
<param name="flashvars" value="&file=tmp/<?php echo $tourID; ?>.xml">
The original AS2:
var xml:XML = new XML();
xml.ignoreWhite = true;
_root.xmlPath == undefined ? xml.load("settings.xml") : xml.load(_root.xmlPath);
The modified AS2 - I've done:
var filePath:String = new String();
filePath =_root.file;
var xml:XML = new XML();
xml.ignoreWhite = true;
_root.xmlPath == undefined ? xml.load(new URLRequest(filePath)) : xml.load(_root.xmlPath);
Can you see anything I'm doing incorrectly?
Thank you very much for your time and attention
Benn

Thanks to webqa - I've gotten a little closer to resolving this
my debugging tells me that i have an undefined error
I'm thinking - xml.load(filePath)
is not recognizing the string as a file path to the XML
Does anyone have any suggestions? thank you
var filePath:String = new String();
filePath =_root.file;
var xml:XML = new XML();
xml.ignoreWhite = true;
_root.xmlPath == undefined ? xml.load(filePath) : xml.load(_root.xmlPath);

File path problem in background job spool

Hello ,
i have probelm in file path of the background job in spool.
i have selection screen
Radiobutton : p_local
parameter: path1.
Radibutton: p_applicatioserver
parameter: path2.
if i keep program in background job, it will alwas take second option.
Now user selected first option and executed job in abckground. File stored in the spplication server with corect file path name. (path2)
But when i go to sm37 entered job name and checked the spool, it gives me the file path name path1. but i need the file path1 in the background spool. my question whether i need to change the file path name in program or whether i have to change the setting
Regards,
zub

First of all, local is not an option in background job; you can only save to the apps server, and your program should take that into consideration by checking for sy-batch = 'X', for example. You should be checking in your at selection-screen to be sure the user has not chosen local path and file and background job.

Deploying war file on Tomcat: file path problem

Hello all,
i am using my eclipse ide for automatically deploy my webapplication to Tomcat. For Database connectivity i configured hibernate. To configure hibernate i am using the following code:
package de.wfm.hibernate.hibernateUtil;
import org.hibernate.HibernateException;
import org.hibernate.Session;
import org.hibernate.SessionFactory;
import org.hibernate.cfg.Configuration;
public class ESDBFactory {
     private static SessionFactory sf;
     private static Session session = null;
     private static String pathToCfgFile = "de\\"
                         + "wfm\\hibernate\\hibernateUtil\\esdb.cfg.xml";
     public static synchronized Session getSession() throws HibernateException {
          if (session==null) {
               if (sf==null) {
                    sf = new Configuration()
                         .configure(pathToCfgFile).
                         buildSessionFactory();
          session = sf.openSession();
          return session;
}When i use this in the ide all is fine. But when i export my application to a war file and deploy it on Tomcat i got the exception:

Last but not least, thanks for taking the time to reply. :D

CS1 and CS2 InDesign file type problems and Tiger

Dual 2.7GHrz G5, 2GB RAM, OSX 10.4.5
Previously, InDesign 3 (CS1 version) was installed on this Mac. I needed to install the full CS2 package. Everything installed just fine. The problem I am having is the file type associations. The Mac now sees CS1 InDesign files as Indesign CS2 files. I got info on a file I knew to have been created and saved in InDesign CS1. I changed the "open with:" to InDesign CS and it worked until I hit "Change all". It then reverts back to a CS2 file type. On other sites I found some different things to try like rebuilding or deleting the LaunchServices pref files, checking to see if their was a CFBundleIdentifier, etc. Anyway, what I seem to have found is that Tiger gets confused when the Type and Creator are the same in the info.plist files. Panther, however, does not seem to have this same problem. We have 10+ other G5's of similar hardware specs as the one listed above, running Panther 10.3.9, have CS1 and CS2 installed, and we are not having the same file type problems.
As a test, I modified the CFBundleIdentifier to be different than the one found in the CS1 info.plist, and it let me "change all" the CS1 files to CS1. Of course, CS2 files could not be associated with CS2 now.
Is there a fix for this? Or, is there a patch being worked on that will fix this problem? We really need to keep both versions of the software installed, and I don't want to have to rely on users making the decision about what version they are working in.
Tom

If Get Info shows both app versions (& it should) as "Open with:" choices, you can at least still set individual docs to open with the preferred version. Instead of having to open Get Info windows, you can do the same thing a bit more easily with the contextual menu that pops up when you right (or CMD) click & hold on a Finder document icon.
Normally, the "Open with >" choice in this menu is a one time thing, but if you hold down the option key, it changes to "Always Open With >" & makes the new app choice permanent as it opens the doc, all in one step.

Xml based file path problem on Windows

Hi
I'm having a problem with a Flash based slideshow based on
the tutorial one from here
http://www.adobe.com/support/flash/applications/jpeg_slideshow_xml/index.html
I've added a timed nextSlide function but basically left the
actionscript the same apart from that.
The problem is that the file works fine in a html file on any
Mac browser I care to test in, Firfox,Netscape,Safari and even
IE5.2 but when I try it in Windows IE6 or firefox, no picture s or
titles show. I've tried this under parallels from a "shared"
folder, and also on a real pc from the website.
I also tried the original tutorial file and it doesn't seem
to work either.
Can anyone cast any light on this problem?
I thought it was the different way paths are defined on Mac
& Windows ie / vs \ so I put everything at the same level and
redefined the paths in the xml to be at the same level , but still
no go on Windows.
Help! please!

Hello!
Does anyone have any idea what the problem is with this?
The example is from the support section of this site and it
doesn't work. Surely an Adobe support person has a comment.

Listing File, path, sizes and dates

Hi all
Case: I have 6 machines on one network (some with 2 drives), another on another network (connected by vpn) and 3 external drives.
These all have accumulated stuff, some repeated as I've upgraded and re-purposed machines but left directories behind as a safeguard.
I need to rationalise the space and develop a more systematic approach to backup and archiving.
My first step is do an inventory of what's where and my natural approach is work with a data base of file name, path, size, created date and last modified to allow me to do some maths on archiving to dvd.
Using find as follows
find [Start Somewhere Directory] -print > [workspace path]/TestOutput.txt
gives me a nice list of file name I can parse out in a database
But I don't get size and dates.
Adding -ls produces that info but creates header lines for parent directories and adds permissions, node and other info I don't need.
I got to here
find [Start Somewhere Directory] -type df -exec ls -lshk {} \; -print > [workspace path]/TestOutput.txt
but still has the hierarchical output rather than flat paths.
Am I doing this all the hard way ? Is there a tool that returns just what I'm looking for ?
Or what command will allow me to take just the relevant columns form ls to the print parameter ?
Or can I extend find to add the size and date info to the output ?
Kind Regards
Eric

Eric
I just so happened to have done something similar before!
It relies on mdls so isn't exactly speedy, but produces a full path, size, modification date, modification time, creation date and creation time as a comma separated list. mdls is not exactly predictable as to which order you get its output, so basically you have to try first without any editing.
Anyway, here it is:
sudo find ~/testfolder -type f \! -name ".*" -exec echo 'mdls -name kMDItemFSSize -name kMDItemFSCreationDate -name kMDItemFSContentChangeDate "{}" | tr "\n" "," | sed "s%^$/.*$ .*ChangeDate = $....-..-..$ $.*$ .CreationDate.= $....-..-..$ $.*$ ...00,.FSSize.= $.*$,$%\"\1\",\6,\2,\3,\4,\5%"' \; | shI'm sure it could be improved!
You could also do it with AppleScript, since that can access the creation date easily.

Need help fixing a file path problem

Hi everyone,
I'm using Dreamweaver 8 and for some reason my url/path name
visually changed in my new web pages. Anything that has a path
(i.e. image, a link etc) now has a prefix in this particular page.
Ex. older files,
images/flower.gif
changed to
../../images/flower.gif.
This is really annoying because when I try to copy fields
from new web page to put in the older files, it includes the ../../
which doesn’t exist in the older files. Even when I create a
new page the prefix is present.
How do I get it back to the old path?
Thanks!
AFIB

You local site is improperly defined. Where does your site
definition place
the root of the site?
