Get source path of .ai file`?
Hi!
Have searched but i cant find a good way of retrieving the source path of the current .AI file. Is it possible?
IE: If i am working with a file in C:\adobe\Illustrator\beautifulfile.ai i want a function that retrieve C:\adobe\Illustrator\
// Clint
your example C:\adobe\Illustrator\beautifulfile.ai
Well, try this:
alert(app.activeDocument.fullName.parent.fsName); // = C:\adobe\Illustrator
or (if last backslash is really needed):
alert(app.activeDocument.fullName.parent.fsName + "\u005c"); // = C:\adobe\Illustrator\

F4 Help to get the path for a File source directory
There are numerous function modules for browsing a particular file in desktop and getting the file path (including the fine name) , like F4_FILENAME , KD_GET_FILENAME_ON_F4 , WS_FILENAME_GET etc. But can anyone tell me how to fetch only the directory path to the field were the F4 help is given. Actually the filename has to come in some other field in the selection screen. Is there separate funtion modules for these OR will changing parameters in the above function modules work?
Pls Help....
Also are there function modules for providing F4 help for getting the path to a file in application directory?Try this method CL_GUI_FRONTEND_SERVICES.
It is a Global CLASS which is having different methods for different purposes
see the documentation of it and use the methods of it

Thanks and Regards

Getting absolute path of a file running in remote machine
Hi,
I want to get the absolute path of a file that will be created in the remote server. Inside a directory XYZ in remote machine, the file will be created and the remote machine's address is xxx.xx.x.x. I have used the following snippet
File f=new File(Filename);
f.getAbsolutePath();
Now, in the output am getting the absolute path of the file as d:/XYZ/Filename. Is there any way to get the output as xxx.xx.x.x/XYZ/FileName ? Can someone please suggest why the server details are not fetched and instead the directory name is fetched.
I am running the program to get absolute path of a file in my remote machine. and for accessing that remote file from my machine, I use xxx.xx.x.x/XYZ/FileName.
Thanks in advance.I'm going to take it a step further and guess at what the OP is going to say next.
On host w.x.y.z there's a file /a/b/share/some_dir/file.txt.
Host w.x.y.z is sharing the /a/b/share/ directory as SHARE.
Client mounts \\w.x.y.z\SHARE as D:, so that he sees D:/some_dir/file.txt.
OP now wants to know not just that D:/some_dir/file.txt is \\w.x.y.z\SHARE/some_dir/file.txt, but also wants to know that on w.x.y.z, SHARE corresponds to /a/b/share.
@OP: If that's what you want, forget it. Part of the premise of file common drive/directory sharing protocols is that the client does not know or care and does not need to know or care what the absolute path is on the serving host. It's none of his business. -

Getting absolute path of a file in a webapp without using servlet/JSP
Hi all,
I need a small clarification. Is it possible to reterive the absolute path of a file present in a tomcat web application without using Servlet/JSP. I have a normal java class which uses this file to read the configuration parameters. I like to know whether I need to create a seperate servlet which will read the parameters from web.xml.Hi all,
I need a small clarification. Is it possible to
reterive the absolute path of a file present in a
tomcat web application without using Servlet/JSP. What if the file is in a WAR? What do you do then?
I
have a normal java class which uses this file to
read the configuration parameters. There are other, better ways to do this.
I like to know
whether I need to create a seperate servlet which
will read the parameters from web.xml.What do you really want it for? You shouldn't need an absolute path. Use the class loader to get an InputStream.

How to get full path of a file uploaded using file control on a jsp ?
Hi all...
I have a jsp on which i am using a file element (input type="file") to upload files present on the physical file system.. Thats working fine.. But i want to retrieve the full path of the file uploaded for further computation.
What are the possible ways which can give me the full path ?? (e.g. "D:\data\text\Output.txt" )
Thanks all for attending the question..
Regards
PrasadSome browsers send the full path. Some do not.
You can not affect this in any way shape or form.
All you can count on receiving is a filename - no path information.
So you will have to have some other way for the user to pass along this information.
If they are uploading to a "remote web site" they could specify a folder to put the uploaded file in.
You could classify it and put all image files in "images" and all script files in "scripts" etc etc by default, and let the user deal with it in their own HTML.
Hope this helps,

Source path Flex config files not updated in generated output
I have a project, built using Flash Builder 4.0 on Mac OS X 10.6.
One of my source directories is src/main/webapp which contains a WEB-INF directory with this structure:
webapp
- WEB-INF (applicationContext.xml etc)
- - classes
- - flex (services-config.xml, remoting-config.xml, proxy-config.xml, messaging-config.xml)
- - lib
In properties, under Flex Build Path I have set src/main/webapp as an additional source folder.
When the project compiles, all the artifacts are created, and all of the above, including *.xml files under
WEB-INF are copied to the output folder, except for the WEB-INF flex directory which has the four xml
configuration files.
The same happens when I create a bin-release folder using the Project/Export Release Build menu.
Any ideas why just the WEB-INF/flex directory is not being copied to bin-debug or bin-release?
Thanks.I don't know a whole lot about beehive pageflow and I haven't done this myself, but I do believe you have run apt to have it generate the various other files pageflow and controls needs. I found some information in the pageflow docs:

Getting directory path of a file
Is there an easy way to get a directory path to a selected file? I am having problems at work where I need to tell someone where a file is but it is nested deep in a directory structure. I'd love to be able to navigate to the file and somehow be able to copy the path. Any ideas? This can be easily done in the Windows (yuck!!!) Explorer.
A third option is to do a spotlight search for the file, then hover your mouse over it and you will get a yellow tool tip with the file path. However, as in W.J. Lope's first option you cannot copy and paste. Or you may want to take a look at an application like PathFinder.
