Find all files in a project

I'm not positve, but I suspect that this is not the best way of getting this information, just seems like there should be an easier way. I'm trying to get a list of all the vi's in a project, so that the test application can be zipped up with the data it generates. This is what I came up with...
P.S. the attachment is LV8.0 (but I'm using 8.5)

Not quite. The code relies on using the Dependencies property. Two problems with this: (1) You need to manually refresh the Dependencies list, if you actually use it (I usually don't); (2) the Dependencies list isn't the same as the VIs in the project. This is a list of all VIs used. In other words, the entire hierarchy.
So, the question is: are you trying to get the list of all VIs used, in which case you would need to use the Dependencies property. Or, are you trying to get a list of the project's items which are VIs? What about libraries and other files that may be in the project?
Also, to the question about getting a project reference, an easier method is to use the Application class' "Project.Open" method:

Upon entering a LV project file into VSS, all files in the project are left out. Only the project shell and settings enter VSS. Any idea why?

Solved!

Chuck72352,
Hello! It is my understanding that you need to add the individual files to the Source Code Control along with the .lvproj file.
Here is a great deal of information on Source Code Control Practices in LabVIEW.

How can I search and find all files modified since december 1st 2010

I just want to see all the files that have been modified on my Windows Server 2008 since December 1, 2010. I want to see if there is anything unusual. Is this possible without 3rd party software?
I support 2 Windows Server 2008. On one of them, I can't seem to get any advanced search options until I type at least one character in the name of the file I am searching for (but I want to search all files). Even then, the search is slow, it
tells me it did not bring back all results because there are too many and the results window is too awkward to navigate. On the second server, when I click in the search box, it has buttons I can click, one is "Date Modified" but they only have predefined
options like "Last week" and "yesterday".
Every version of windows explorer gets worse and worse at searching. I rarely use it anymore. I usually install "Search Everything" from voidtools.com. You can download, install, index, and search and get your results all more quickly than
finding the results in windows explorer.

Hi,
It should be caused that Windows Search is not installed on the second server. See following steps to install it:
1) Start Server Manager
2) Click on Roles in the left navigation pane
3) Select Add Role in the Roles Summary pane to the right
4) Select the File Services role and click Next
5) Select the Windows Search role service and Finish the wizard.
Meanwhile, when you search for a file such as "data", input keyword data and click the Advanced Search at the bottom to result box. Then you can select "Data and modified" and "is after" December 1, 2010

Finder not finding all files

Hi.
I recently mad a change to the short name of my account and now my finder wont find the files I've made or downloaded prior to this change. I think the change is what's causing this.
For example:
i have files abc and abc2 . I created abc2 today and abc was made in july. If i do a search in finder (and spotlight) for abc, only the abc2 will appear.
Anyone know how I can fix this?
Droopox

Hi,
Hope you don't mind me jumping into the thread. I'm coming across problems finding things through finder too but I haven't changed name etc. There are some older files which I don't quite remember where I filed and some searches don't work at all. In some instances, I search a folder for any .ppt files and I get 0 results even though I know that there are several .ppt files in there. Should I do the same thing you suggested to the OP - drag my Macintosh HD into Spotlight privacy and drag out again? Or was that only for doing things like changing the name?
Thanks!

Find in Files and Active Project

When I open a file from the window called "display search results" the file is not in the "current" project.
Several functions don't work with this file:
- Code Insight
- Go to declaration
- Make ("the file is not part of the active project"
I think Find in Files should be smarter (especially when the search path is the "active project")

I will log this as a bug against JDeveloper.

Finder search does not find all files

Hi,
I am doing a search in Finder and files missing from the results.
I am searching for "silverlight" in "This Mac" in the "File Name". The results give me one file "Silverlight.plugin" in the following folder "Macintosh HD/Library/Internet Plug-Ins".
However there is also another folder in "Macintosh HD/Library/Application Support/Microsoft" with name "Silverlight".
Also there is another folder in "Macintosh HD/Users/[USERNAME]/Library/Application Support/Microsoft" with name "Silverlight".
Why finder does not find in search these files/folders? Any idea?
Thanks

this happens because system files are not included in default finder searches. I'm not sure why it even found the first file. you may have started the search from inside the main library folder somewhere.
anyway, to include system files in a search do the following
in finder enter command+f to start a finder search. click on "Kind", hold the mouse button, scroll and click on "other". in the resulting popup select "system files" and include them in the search. then all instances of Silverlight will be found.

Solution for spotlight not finding all files and plea to apple...

ok, here is the deal:
you are looking for a file named "new_template.lso" which is a logic song template, that you created with logic studio.
this file resides in ~/Library/Application Support/Logic/Song Templates/ a location where logic insists on putting the song templates.
looking for it via the spotlight menu shows nothing.
looking for it with the finders search reveals ... nothing. *** ?
here is the wonderful solution:
-open a new finder search: cmd-f.
-goto the first dropdown menu
-choose "others"
-look for "system files" check the corresponding box.
-go back to the search window and search for the file - no result
-now go to the first dropdown menu and choose the newly added "system files" entry.
-finally go to the second dropdown menu and choose "contains".
boom, totally easy and fast and user friendly... you got your file.
this solution isn't even possible in the spotlight menu!!!
so why am i not supposed to find files in my user library?
i am 32 years old.
i use my computer to make a living.
i used macs since 10 years.
i promise i will not sue apple if i find and delete files by mistake.
seriously this dumbing down the system starts to get unbearable.
does anyone know of a workaround?
are there any hidden preferences for spotlight, which i could change so it shows "system files" by default???

I completely agree. Everyone who has a problem with this (and I see it is a hot topic in these forums) should send apple a a note and tell them that we don't all stick to iLife and some of us go into the LIBRARY. Leopard is great, but Tiger let me efficiently find stuff in the library and I was always confident I'd find all I needed.

Trying to find all files or folders with a specific owner recursively

I'm trying to find any file with a specific owner, let's call that owner "domain\account1" I've placed 2 files and a folder at various levels in a directory structure and when I run the following code from the folder those files (or folder) exist
in, it works fine:
gci | Select fullname,@{n='Owner';e={(Get-Acl $_).Owner}} | Where {$_.Owner -eq 'DOMAIN\account1'}
But when I try to go to a common root of those files (and folder) and add -recurse to the gci, it shows only the folder. Is there something secret/hidden about gci that I need it to force-show, or am I doing something else wrong?
Thanks
[email protected]

No. They look roughly equivalent but the expression I used may be more flexible. You also can shorten yours more like thsi:
Get-ChildItemC:\Temp -Rec
| Get-ACL
| ?
{$_.Owner
-eq 'Domain\Admin'}
No need to wrap it in the pipeline.
This is exactly what mine is but I added a select with a calcculated property.
¯\_(ツ)_/¯

IMac Core 2 Duo running 10.4.8 not finding all files in network hard drive

I've got >12,300 songs on a Buffalo LinkStation (NAS) that is set to allow both Macs and Windows computers read it. My Wndows XP computers recognize all the files, but my iMac 2GHz Core Duo with 10.4.8 doesn't. I consolidated all my music using iTunes on my Windows XP laptop and then returned the folder to my NAS. No improvement. My iMac still won't see all the music. What's more, it seems to be totally arbitrary. It will see all files from Michael Jackson's Thriller except "Wanna be startin' somethin'" and then will see only one of three songs by Kenny Rogers, the two unrecognized being "Lucille" and "The Gambler." Don't even get me started on my U2 folder or any of my Rap albums. Is it an index problem? How do I fix this?
iMac with 2Ghz Core Duo Mac OS X (10.4.8)

Lee: I have no idea whether this is the problem, but I am recently aware of my own issues with a Buffalo Linkstation and they relate to the NAS drive's not being able to read file names with certain characters like "/" "|" "*" and the like. I was testing out a backup program (Synk, Standard Ed.) to back up various files and got a huge number of error messages, apparently resulting from "illegal" file names. This is apparently because the Linkstation's kernel is Linux and these special characters mean something special to the OS. Why Buffalo claims that the product is mac-compatible is another matter.
Anyway, I hope this helps.

Need ability to find in all files in the project

I am not sure if this is already supported, but in Dreamweaver CS4 it is

It is already supported, yes.
Click on the project, select Search from the Search menu, then opt to search withing "selected resource".

How do I move all files from one project, to another hard drive?

I am using CS3- I created a project on one hard drive, began editing, etc.- but now I'd like to move that project to another hard drive.
Where are all of the files associated with it so I can move it successfully?
Thanks!

Renaming all files in a project

I need to change the names of all the files in a RoboHelp 9 project; actually add "en_" to indicate that they are written in english.
I don't suppose there is any easy way to accomplish this?
Thanks,
Dave

Hi Dave and welcome to the RH community.
Unfortunately there is no easy way to do this without manually renaming each topic via the Topic Properties. You could use a find and replace tool but be very careful to ensure that all instances of the file names are picked up (e.g. links, TOC references, Index references, etc.). It is so easy to make a mistake and end up with lots of broken links which is why I'd say the best method is to do this manually.

Can I Batch Rename all files in a Project?

I have a rather large scale LabVIEW project that I would like to use as the basis for another similar project, so I just made a copy of the entire project directory. In order to avoid conflicts when switching from one project to another, I would like to rename all the files in the new project directory. I know I can rename the files individually within the project, and LabVIEW will automatically update all dependencies--but is there any way to rename ALL (or at least multiple) files from within the project? Or is there any other way that I can rename a large number of files that will update the dependencies and avoid file conflicts. For simplicity, I would probably just append a prefix/suffix to each filename.
Thank you for your help and suggestions.

I wrote a cloner VI just before NI release LV 8.5 where they adde the ability to add a prefix when you do a Source Distribution. Try that.

Import Not Finding All Files in Folder Tree (which files were missed?)

I'm a new LR4.1 user running on a 15" Macbook Pro (OS X 10.7.4).
I exported my Aperture Library masters: mostly NEF files from Nikon D100, D200, D300, D800 cameras, and also JPG, TIF, and PSD files, etc.
Aperture reported this export count:
51285 of 50582 (don't ask me why it exported more than it thought it had!).
After export, I used "find" (case-insensitive) in the output directory tree to count all NEF, TIF[F], PSD, PNG, JPG, GIF, AVI, and MOV files spit out by Aperture: I found 51277 such files (pretty close to the Aperture export count, although not exactly the same).
However when I point Lightroom to that folder tree with the exported Aperture masters, an IMPORT operation only reports 44279 photos for import (at lower left of expanded import dialog). About 7,000 less than Aperture exported! I have "Include Subfolders" checked and "Don't Import Suspected Duplicates" unchecked in the LR import dialog. Also, I am using the "ADD" option in the import dialog.
How can I figure out which files Lightroom is missing? (I haven't actually imported anything yet due to the discrepancy.)
I can't see how the discrepancy could be so large. I think LR should support most of my Aperture-supported files.
I see LR doesn't support 32 bit files, but I don't see how I could have 7K files (maybe some, but I don't think 7k!) (I will check this later, am installing Xcode and ImageMagick to check the count of 32 bit deep files).
If anyone can offer ideas on how I can find the missed files, it would be appreciated.
(Maybe if I proceed with the import and there is some way to export a text file listing of library files, then I could process that file vs. the actual files in the directory tree to deduce the problem issues.)
Regards,
Colin

How to batch rename with index/counter all files in a project?

I have a project with files named with an index (I believe that is the correct term). For example, the files are named XX1, XX2, and so on. However, some files have the same name because I imported from two different memory cards, without thinking to set the starting number for the second import into the same project. I would like to batch rename all of the files (masters and versions) with a consecutive index (1, 2, 3, and so on). How can this be done? I have found in the manual the way to do this on import, but not how to correct my mistake now. Thanks!

I would like to batch rename all of the files (masters and versions) with a consecutive index (1, 2, 3, and so on).
Select the images in the project and then use ( from the main Aperture application menu)
Matadata -> Batch Change (Shift-Command-B)
Set the Version Name format to one of the "Custom with Index ..." or "Custom with Counter ..." formats and check "Apply to Master Files". Make sure you disable all other changes that you do not want, like Time Zone correction, or keywords.
