Getting a list of files from a shared directory

Hi All,
I need to get a list of files from a shared directory on another server and put them in a HTMLB TableView element with links to the files.
I was not successful with CL_GUI_FRONTEND_SERVICES=>DIRECTORY_LIST_FILES. This method works in test mode, but gives me a gui_not_supported exception in BSP. I guess BSPs are not allowed to use this.
Is there any other alternative?
I need to be able to upload the files as well.
Thanks,
Roman

Hi again,
Not sure about the shared directory files list...
In my opinion, this cannot be done using BSP.
But, you can try using VBScript to access the file system with object of that sort :
CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")
it is only a thought and you can be sure to cross security problems by accessing files through a Web application...
Best regards,
Guillaume

Use this.getClass().getResourceAsStream("/META-INF/filename");This should work. Probably, you would need to set the Manifest Class-Path attribute.

Problem with getting a list of files in a directory

I'm trying to get a list of files in a particular directory. The problem is I'm also getting a listing of all the sub-directories too. Here is my code:
File directory = new File(dir);
File[] filelist;
filelist = directory.listFiles();
for(int i=0;i<filelist.length;i++)
System.out.println("FileName = " + filelist.getName());
What am I doing wrong?
Thanks
Brad

You are not doing anything wrong. You just have to test whether a given file is a subdirectory:
File directory = new File(dir);
File[] filelist;
filelist = directory.listFiles();
for(int n = 0; n < filelist.length; n++) {
if (!filelist[n].isDirectory())
System.out.println("FileName = " + filelist[n].getName());

Hi am having issues with getting the list of users from the Active Director

Hi am having issues with getting the list of users from the Active Directory, can anyone help me with this!

Hi Jason,
Try this:
1. In Ultiboard select Tools>>Netlist Editor>>Pins, press the Delete button
2. Select all nets in the Select the Net to Delete dialog and then press the Delete button. This will clear all nets in the layout, don't worry all traces, parts are still on the design.
3. Go to Multisim and select Transfer>>Forward annotate to Ultiboard. This will add all nets that you removed back and it should fix the pin problem

<i>2.In Request DT how the message structure wil be to get the list of materials from sap r/3 system as Response(Ex: Fields in the source structure).</i>
    You create your own structres for Request and respoce.. and Map it with RFC..
<i>3.Or the second thing is how to get the list of materials start with some alphabate.</i>

How to upload a text file from a shared folder and provide an o/p

how to upload a text file from a shared folder and provide an o/p containing the details in each order in the text file

Hi,
Use <b>GUI_UPLOAD</b> to upload a text file from a shared folder.
Use <b>GUI_DOWNLOAD</b> to download data in a file on the presentation server or use <b>OPEN DATASET, TRANSFER</b> and <b>CLOSE DATASET</b> statements to download data to the application server.
Now, I hope the code for data fetching, if required, is already present in the report.
Reward points if the answer is helpful.

How can I get data in flat file from Pool table and cluster table ?

Hi,
I am working in one Achiving project. My requirement is to get data into flat file from Cluster table and pool table.
Is there any tool avilable to download data into flat file from pool table and cluster table ?
if table name given in the selection screen then data will be downloaded into flat file.
waiting for quick response.

Data cannot be retrived directly form the cluster table
as the Cluster results are stored in Cluster Key say for example PCLkey
and form that Key we need to fetch the data
these clustes are not the part of PNP or PNPCE tables

How do I get a list of files in the DataDrvUser Dir programatically (no dialogs)

I have version 8.1.1292 of Diadem. I wish to get a list of files in a directory without using a dialog.

Hello Sweeten
Attached are two snipits of code, hope this helps
The following sub reads all the folders in a root folder. Note the use the FSO or file system object. The FSO has a number of properties and methods for working with files and folders, would definetly check it out.
Sub ReadProjects()
'This sub reads all the Folders in the root
Set fso = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")
Set Folder = fso.Getfolder(RootPath_)
Set Folder = Folder.SubFolders
i=1
For Each SubFolder In Folder
LstStates.Items.add SubFolder.name,i
i=i+1
Next
End Sub
This next code snipit reads all the files of a certain extention (i.e. LPD,DAT)
Sub ReadProjectFiles()
Dim fso,PathName,LvdNames,GraNames,path
Dim x,y,z
x=1:y=1:z
=1:w=1
Set fso = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")
Set Folder = fso.Getfolder(ProjectPath_)
Set Files = Folder.Files
For Each file In files
Select Case file.type
Case "LPD File"
LstGraph.items.add file.name , x
x=x+1
Case "DAT File"
LstData.Items.add file.name , y
y = y+1
Case "LVD File"
LstView.Items.add file.name , z
z = z+1
End Select
Next
Let me know if this is helpful

How to get InputStream of uploaded file from request?

The situation:
Client is uploading xml file to server.
<form METHOD=POST ENCTYPE = "multipart/form-data" action="SendFile" accept="text/xml">
<input type="file" name="SentFile" />
<input type="submit" value="go"/>
</form>Then I need to parse data from file.
I want to use method javax.xml.parsers.DocumentBuilder.parse(InputStream is)
But, how to get InputStream of uploaded file from request?

You cannot get the InputStream of the uploaded file directly. The InputStream you can obtain from request.getInputStream() contains a lot of other data as well as the uploaded file. You will have to parse the data in the InputStream to find the data that belongs to the file.
A short cut is to use the HTTP Multipart File Upload available from www.jenkov.com. It simplifies file upload and makes it easy to obtain an InputStream for only the uploaded file. It also handles upload of multiple files. It is free, open source, Apache license, so if it doesn't fit your needs, you can always read the code and see how it works. Then write your own upload servlet.

Read and List the Files from Remote Webserver Path

Hi All,
I have requirement where i need to Read and List the files from a Folder of Remote webserver path using JAVA.
Remote webserver is within the network only...No Firewall and also Access is given to Read the folder. No Issues on this.
Folder will just contain some PDF files...
I just need to display the PDF file names available in the Folder..
No need to read the PDF File...Only required to read the folder to list the file names in it.
Looking forward some workaround to this.
Thanks and Regards.

I need to read the folder from a webserver path of different machine...
File dir = new File( prop.getProperty("inputPath"));
File[] files = dir.listFiles(fileFilter);
final String match=siteName;
     final String type=reportType;
     Calendar c1 = Calendar.getInstance();
     c1.add(Calendar.MONTH, - Integer.parseInt(prop.getProperty("filterMonths"))); //Filters reportes generated in last X months (X picked from config file)
     final long filterDate = c1.getTime().getTime();
     FileFilter fileFilter = new FileFilter() {
     public boolean accept(File file) {
     long fileLastModiDate = file.lastModified();
     if((fileLastModiDate >= filterDate) && (file.getName().toLowerCase().startsWith(match)) && ( (type.equals("M") && file.getName().indexOf("WIP")==-1) || ((!type.equals("M") && file.getName().indexOf("WIP")!=-1)) ) ) {
          return true;
     }else {
          return false;
Here it works fine if the input path is local machine..
But i need to know how to give the input path as WEBSERVER PATH of different machine??

Getting the list of files in a directory by their last modified date

Dear friends,
I want to get the list of files in a directory sorted by their last modified date.
By default the file.list() or listFiles() return files sorted by their name in ascending order.
Please give me your suggestions.
Thanks in advance,
James.

Thanks friend,
I myself got the answer
here is my code:
public File[] getSortedFileList(File dir){
File[] originalList = dir.listFiles();
int numberOfFiles = originalList.length;
File[] sortedList = new File[numberOfFiles];
long[] lastModified = new long[numberOfFiles];
for(int i = 0; i < numberOfFiles; i++){
lastModified[i] = originalList.lastModified();
Arrays.sort(lastModified);
for(int i = 0; i < numberOfFiles; i++){
for(int k = 0; k < numberOfFiles; k++){
if(originalList[k].lastModified() == lastModified[i])
sortedList[i] = originalList[k];
System.out.println("The sorted file list is:" + sortedList[i]);
return sortedList;
