Find item in zip file without extracting

Hi Guys!
Weird question today!
I'm looking for files like sin*.dat into a specific file-server folder that may contain subfolders and zip/7z folders.
With powershell i'm not able to find this files into zip/7z folders and i can't unzip those folders for many reasons.
Is there a way to find those files without unzip the folders?
Thanks

Hi!
Not Sure, i've got PS4 and update .Net with Windows update to 4.5.1 but it seems that PS don't recognise([System.IO.Compression.ZipFile].
Using this script http://blogs.technet.com/b/heyscriptingguy/archive/2013/11/02/powertip-find-if-computer-has-net-framework-4-5.aspx the
result is true.
What can i do?

Loading jar files without extracting

Is it possible to load a jar file without extracting it? If so, how?
I've loaded the JCE and the class that I'm using references another jar file, which also comes with the JCE. I've loaded that other jar as well, but it's failing. It appears to be looking for the jar by it's name (US_export_policy.jar). I'm not sure how to get Oracle's JVM to see the other jar.
Thanks,

If you're directly reading class files, you may have to navigate the
class hierarchy yourself, e.g., recursively find and open the parent
types to search for annotations.
If the annotation type you're looking for has
@Retention(RetentionType.RUNTIME) or @Retention(RetentionType.CLASS),
and if it has @Inherited, then the APT annotation processing API will
report a class as showing the annotation, if one of its superclasses is
annotated. Roughly the same is true of reading the class reflectively.
However, that does not apply to interfaces, only to superclasses. You
can read about that in the JDK docs [1].
I guess what I'm saying is that by the terms of Java, a POJO _is not_
annotated just because it implements an interface that happens to be
annotated. Therefore there is no direct way to ask a representation of
a class whether it is annotated in this way - rather, you have to walk
the supertype hierarchy and ask the individual interfaces whether they
have the annotation.

Is they're a way to look inside zip folders without extracting it?

Is that possible cause I am thinking of saving space on my HD's by compressing stuff into zip folders then when I want something just extract it without extracting everything?
Or should I do a compressed disk image? But though I will need it for Windows?

Oh, sorry, I answered the thread title, and didn't notice that the question you asked was actually different. The 'unzip -l will only list the contents.
To extract a specific file, use the form:<pre>unzip archive.zip /file/to/extract</pre>
Now things are actually a bit more complicated than that since HFS+ exended attributes and resource forks are stored separately in the "__MACOSX" folder of the archive in "AppleDouble" format. The File and ._File have to be placed into the same folder and recombined using "/System/Library/CoreServices/FixupResourceForks", but for most files, this extra step won't strictly be necessary.

Folder Action + Move Finder Items = Zero KB files

I've got a folder action set that is supposed to run the Automator Action "Move Finder Items" on any file that gets placed in a specific folder (called "Folder A") and move it to "Folder B". I'm having an issue with larger files though.
As soon as I begin to transfer the file to "folder A" , the folder action runs and results in a "Zero KB" file in "Folder B".
Is there any way to keep the Folder Action from triggering until the file has completely copied to the folder with the Folder Action attached ("Folder A")?
A side note: I have this same folder action running on an iMac with Mac OS 10.6.3 and it works great . (This one was made with the newer version of Automator that shipped with 10.6 vs. Automator on 10.5 which made the action I am having trouble with)
Any input would be appreciated!

There is a check in *Snow Leopard* to see if the items have completed their copy/download, but Leopard does not do any checking - the script is triggered immediately. You can add your own delay with a *Run AppleScript* action, though, for example:
<pre style="
font-family: Monaco, 'Courier New', Courier, monospace;
font-size: 10px;
font-weight: normal;
margin: 0px;
padding: 5px;
border: 1px solid #000000;
width: 720px; height: 340px;
color: #000000;
background-color: #DAFFB6;
overflow: auto;"
title="this text can be pasted into an Automator 'Run AppleScript' action">
on run {input, parameters} -- wait for file copy to complete by testing the size of the containing folder
set theFolders to {} -- to handle items in different folders
set skippedItems to {}
repeat with anItem in the input -- get a list of unique folders
tell application "Finder"
get (container of anItem) as alias
if the result is not in theFolders then set the end of theFolders to the result
end tell
end repeat
repeat with aFolder in theFolders
set timeToWait to 30 -- time to wait for copy to complete
set interval to 2 -- test every interval seconds
set copied to false
tell application "Finder" to set currentSize to size of aFolder -- get initial size
repeat with timer from timeToWait to 1 by -interval -- check every interval seconds up to maximum time
delay interval
tell application "Finder" to set newSize to size of aFolder -- recheck size
if (newSize is equal to currentSize) then
set copied to true
exit repeat -- success
else -- update size
set currentSize to newSize
end if
end repeat
if not copied then set the end of skippedItems to quoted form of (aFolder as text) -- timed out
end repeat
showSkippedAlert for skippedItems
return input
end run
to showSkippedAlert for skippedItems
show an alert dialog for any items skipped, with the option to cancel the rest of the workflow
parameters - skippedItems [list]: the items skipped
returns nothing
if skippedItems is not {} then
set {alertText, theCount} to {"Error with waiting for items to copy", count skippedItems}
if theCount is greater than 1 then
set theMessage to (theCount as text) & space & " folders timed out"
else
set theMessage to "1 folder timed out"
end if
set theMessage to theMessage & " - copy of contents may be incomplete:"
set {tempTID, AppleScript's text item delimiters} to {AppleScript's text item delimiters, return}
set {skippedItems, AppleScript's text item delimiters} to {skippedItems as text, tempTID}
if button returned of (display alert alertText message (theMessage & return & skippedItems) alternate button "Cancel" default button "OK") is "Cancel" then error number -128
end if
return
end showSkippedAlert
</pre>
The action will check the folder sizes, and when there is no change (or the wait times out) the input items are passed on.

Download ZIP file without changing file extension

I regularly download a zipped csv file, of the format: "filename.csv.gz". As the name does not change, Firefox adds a digit to distinguish it, so for example I get "filename.csv-3.gz". This is a pain as it changes the file extension which means that I cannot open the extracted file without first renaming it. I want to keep an archive of all the files, so deleting them each time isn't really an option, and neither is moving them to a different location each time. Is there any way the naming convention for downloads can be changed?

I think you have to disable it in your Operating system:

Is it possible to download a zipped file without unzipping it?

I need to download zipped Joomla extensions from the Joomla website and then upload them to my LINUX website, via my Macintosh. The problem is that my Macintosh unzips the files. I then have to compress the files again before I upload them. This usually works without a problem but it'd be safer to download the file without unzipping them. Is there a way to do this? I can't find any Preference for zipping or compressing, or any documentation about controlling compression in Mac Help.

try Safari > preferences > general. untick +open "safe" files+ ...

Process multiple documents in zip file without using ccBPM in PI

Hi,
Is it possible for PI to handle multiple documents within a zipped source file without the use of ccBPM?
For example, I have an incoming source zip file containing 0.pdf, a,xml, z.pdf respectively, After having the sender communication channel uncompress the zip file, each pdf file should be pushed to a directory on a file server, and the xml file should go through a message mapping.
Is this possible to process all of the files without the use of ccBPM?
Regards,
Jim

Hi Michal,
Thank you for your response. The example I provided is just one potential case. In general, the zip file will always contain 1 xml file and 0-n PDFs, Word docs, or other types of documents. Also, the first file in the zip may not always be the xml file, which is what I was trying to portray by my example. Since I am not sure how many non-xml files will be included, I did not know if I could handle all of them directly, without ccBPM.
At this point, I am leaning towards using a script preprocessor to uncompress the zip, then for each file found, push the xml file to an NFS channel which will process/map the xml, and push every other file type to another NFS channel to copy these documents to a predetermined directory on a predetermined server.
What are your thoughts on this approach?
Thanks and Regards,
Jim

"Find Finder Items" returns same file twice

Hey y'all,
I'm trying to jerry-rig a photobooth for my wedding. I'm using automator to grab 3 stills from a webcam, and place them all in a folder. When I use "Find Finder Items" to send these images to an action that will rotate them, it finds one of the images twice. That is, the results for "Find Finder Items - where: path whose: name contains 'snap' " will return pictures/path/snap3.tiff, pictures/path/snap1.tiff, pictures/path/snap2.tiff, pictures/path/snap3.tiff. This means that when I send these results to my Rotate 90 Degrees action, Snap3 is rotated 180, and when I send them all into a PDF, I get snap3 twice.
This also happens when I "Find Finder Items" and just look for all the .tiff files in /path, and when use "Get Folder Contents" on /path.
Background: Running 10.5.8 Leopard on a PPC Mac mini. Fairly new to the world of Mac, so I may be missing something obvious.
I've been searching for answers for a day or two now, and haven't come across this sort of issue; I apologize if this is old hat, but I really have made a goodfaith attempt to search these and other forums.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Edited to add: The folder only contains the 3 .tiff files, and the PDF I'm trying to dump them into. I thought maybe I was somehow creating a 4th identical file, but it's not the case.

no idea what is happening, other than Apple Software is usually the worst to accomplish thing the way YOU want to.

Ur posting wrong threads , This place is for java
peopleOnce again, shut up.

Where Can I Find the classes.zip File?

I am looking for the JDBC driver for the Oracle database. I have been to the http://www.oracle.com to look for the classes12.zip and could not find it. Has the name of the zip file changed for Oracle JDBC 10.1.0?

There are two parts: the java version and the database version.
This would normally be: classes11.zip, classes12.zip and ojdbc14.jar.
You should probably be using the last. The first two would be for earlier versions of the database and java.
If you install the Oracle client it should have it (look for a jdbc dir.)
There is some place to download it from the otn site as well.

Looking for a zip application that will open rather than extract zip files

In OS X, the built-in operation for zip files is that when you double-click on one, os x extracts the whole thing to a new folder. I am looking for an application that will open zip files without extracting them - what winzip does in Windows. Are there any apps that will do this in os x?

Is There A Command To Find & Extract ".zip" Files

Is There A Terminal Command I Can Use To Find and "Extract"...All zip Files From one External HD and To Unzip Them To Another External Drive
I Would Like For Terminal To Find all the zip files on my old external Hard Drive inside of my karaoke folder
and extract them to my new (1TB) Drive
Macbook Pro 2013
256 SSD / 8GB Ram

iamdeejaybonez,
yes, you could try something like
mkdir /Volumes/target_external_disk/target_folder
find /Volumes/source_external_disk/karaoke_folder -name '*.zip' -print | xargs unzip -d /Volumes/target_external_disk/target_folder {} \;
(Provide suitable values for target_external_disk, target_folder, source_external_disk, and karaoke_folder.)
Note that this would extract all of the ZIP archives in the source external disk’s karaoke folder into the same target folder on the target external disk.

Finder making ZIP file password protected on Windows

Here's an odd one. Someone (on OS X.5.7) makes an archive (ZIP) of a folder and gives the same file to two people, one on XP and one on Leopard (10.5.8).
The Leopard user can open the zip file no problem. The XP user has a password prompt, and can't extract or copy the files out of the ZIP file without the password. But no password was set and nobody can guess what the password might be.
Anybody see anything like this while making ZIPs from Leopard?

I am having the same problem, occasionally and randomly.
It seems to be problem with XP and not Vista.
The standard advice is to right click the zip in Windows, then properties, then "unblock", but this doesn't work in the case of my most recent problem zip.
I have tried zipping todays problem folder with Finder, FileChute and Betterzip, and none of them will open in XP, but all will in Vista.
Note that XP will open the zip and show the jpegs, but the jpegs will not open.
Really would appreciate some help on this.

I'm running out of suggestions over here.
Your exact command line yields this result:
zip warning: name not matched: in.txt
zip error: Nothing to do! (out.zip)
Well, it should, as I don't have an in.txt. Handing it an existing file, I get this:
zip -P pass out.zip result.txt
adding: result.txt (deflated 7%)
.. and opening in the Finder correctly prompts me:
so there must be something wrong with your system.
Very Long Shot: What version do you get when you type this? (I can't imagine this is the actual problem, but you never know.)
zip --version
