Getting File name without the suffix

If I have a file name myfile.java
Is there a function where I can get it to be just myfile without the .java at the end?

public static String getBaseName (String filename) {
     filename = filename.substring (0, filename.lastIndexOf ("."));
     return filename;
public static String getBaseName (File file) {
     String filename = file.getName ();
     return getBaseName (filename);

Get File name of the inbound file during mapping

Scenario: to read the file name of the inbound file (which has date required for the mapping) during runtime.
The requirement is to read the date of the inbound file (passed to the XI pipline by the file adapter) and populate the same in the outbound mapping structure.
Any idea about how to do this?
(I went through few options of using java.util.map. not successful yet)

Hi Anand,
I posted the same question a time ago, without any help....
Can I find out the full filename of input file in message mapping?
Posted: Nov 23, 2004 1:00 PM
I have in XI 2.0 the following scenario :
In the inbound fileadapter I read my input file. The filename of the input file is part fixed, part variable (Like INDATA01.txt, INDATA03.txt, etc).
So in my Adapterconfiguration, I specify the filename with a wildcard (INDATA*.txt).
What I now want to do, is in my Message Mapping use the full filename , so I can do something different for every filenumber. Is there a way where I can get the full filename available in my message mapping (I did not find the filename in the XML in the message trace).

How to get file name of the form attachment?

Hi,
is there anybody who is able to help me with the following problem???
I started my process from Workspace ES and as a first step I attached one locale file (IMG.JPG or IMG.TIF e.g.) as a form attachment. I used "Attachments" bookmark in the Workspace ES.
I need to get file name of attached file in the process!!!
I tried to use "getTaskAttachments" component to get file name of form attachment but without success. This component successfully obtained attached file an stored it in the variable (type list, subtype document) but didn't produce all file attribute informations such as basename or Content Type:
Is there some possibility to obtain file name (including file extension) by using "standard" tools and components of ALC?
Thanks for your suggestions.

Hi LekomDev,
I faced the same situation some time back and this is what I know.
Based on the file type few of the attributes will or will not be populated. (This is what the official documentation says about Document attributes)
The file name that you are looking for would mostly be in 'name' attribute of Document object. The 'wsfilename' attribute is the atrribute which gets used to show the file name into Attachments tab of the workspace.
So, if you are just interested in knowing the filenames then 'name' attribute is the place that you are looking for.
But if you are trying to solve an issue in which Attachments against a Task isn't showing the filenames properly then you would need to copy the 'name' attribute value into 'wsfilename' attribute and then the Attachmetns against a Task would have the correct names.
Tip: Use the Record and Playback option of the workbench to inspect the Document variable and you would see all of the values for a Document variable at desired step in your orchestration.
hope this helps,
cheers,

File-2-Proxy: Get file name in the inbound proxy?

Hi,
I need to know the file name in the inbound proxy. After a search I found that's possible mapping the file name to the target structure as it's explained in that link: [http://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/scn/weblogs;jsessionid=(J2EE3417200)ID1731350750DB00274596951164745615End?blog=/pub/wlg/2664]
But I need to know if there is another way to access the file name in the inbound proxy without modifying the mapping.
Thanks.

this is possible by a dynamic configuration (there is no other easy way)
some references -
http://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/scn/weblogs;jsessionid=(J2EE3417500)ID1159980350DB00296046510040545862End?blog=/pub/wlg/13704
the idea is to get the file name in runtime using the dynamic conf code and poulating it to any field that will be part of the proxy message

How to get file name on the base of extension

hi
reply me
how to get the filename on the base of extension from the
current directory......
for example
i create file with the "igg" extension and save in the folder
where the exe file of director save....
i want when exe run then exe file read filename of the
define( "igg" ) extension with out path just name of the file with
igg extension
tel me how
regards
farhana khan

Here's a solution that requires no xtras:
on GetFilesWithExtension(aFolderPath, aExtension)
-- INPUT: <aFolderPath> should be a valid string
folder path
-- <aExtension> may be a string file extension,
without the
-- dot. For example: "txt" or "igg"
-- OUTPUT: Returns an error symbol or a linear list of file
names
-- in the given folder. If an extension is given, only
-- files with the given extension will be listed. If not,
-- all files and folders will be listed.
vFileList = []
if not stringP(aFolderPath) then
return #stringPathExpected
end if
vIgnoreExtension = not stringP(aExtension)
vDelimiter = the itemDelimiter
the itemDelimiter = "."
n = 0
repeat while TRUE
n = n + 1
vFileName = getNthFileNameInFolder(aFolderPath, n)
if vFileName = "" then
exit repeat
end if
if vIgnoreExtension then
vFileList.append(vFileName)
else if the last item of vFileName = aExtension then
vFileList.append(vFileName)
end if
end repeat
the itemDelimiter = vDelimiter
return vFileList
end GetFilesWithExtension
You can also use
Buddy API's baFileList,
which allows you to do wildcard searching.

Getting file name without adding asset

Here's the set up-
I use Watch Folders to compress videos for DVD, and I don't want to add the original files as assets. However, I want part of the watcher to be a script response that creates a text file with the same name as the original file. I haven't been able to pass the file name as a parameter- it keeps passing the MetaData field name. I've tried File Name and Title (I used quotes and brackets- can't show that on here, it makes it into links).
I'm guessing I'm either using the wrong metadata field or this is impossible, because there is no metadata.

I thought I had a solution for you, but upon testing it I discovered an unfortunate reality with the way FCSvr reports job status.
You can subscribe to jobs and have that subscription feed the values of the job's fields to a script. The jobs don't track elapsed time, but they do stamp time for \[Updated] at the creation of the job, during the job, and at the close of the job.
I tested this by creating one email response that will send me an email with the timestamp value of \[Updated] and a subject line of \[Job ID] \[Status] to tell them apart. I made two subscriptions, one that would fire upon the creation of a job that executes the response, and one that would fire on the modification of a job filtered for a status of "DONE".
The problem is, the \[Updated] timestamp does not ever change in the metadata, it just gets updated in the GUI separately. More digging found the same is true for the \[Progress] field.
You could have had two scripts, one that writes a timestamp to a file at the creation of a job with the first subscription that is filtered for the kind of thing you bill for based on whatever job field values, and another that finds the difference with the end timestamp at the close with the second subscription that is filtered for the kind of thing you bill for based on whatever job field values plus a \[Status] that equals "DONE". There would be a margin of error of a few seconds, but that just means you could round your billing up to the next minute.
But alas, the job metadata never updates beyond the first values. In fact, if you open a job from the queue after it completes, the timestamp reverts to the initial value.
Maybe you could have the script write a timestamp itself when it runs rather than trying to pull one from the job's metadata...

Can one lift a file-name without the file.extension in javascript

I suspect this matter may have come up before but I could not find a thread on it ...
Anyway: If I grab a filename for later use with
var thedoc = app.activeDocument
var docName = thedoc.name
it picks up the original file-extension too.
Is there a way to avoid this or to »substract« the extension later on?
What I want to use that for is for saving multiple flattened CMYK-files from a layered RGB-psd-file into the same folder as the psd-file and appending a letter-combination to signify what printing-conditions they were generated for.
As Im plenty ignorant in Scripting-matters any help would be appreciated.

Here I go again:
Originally I thought I would combine Actions and Scripts into a Droplet but then I got to thinking one Script containing all the operations would be neater.
However I cant figure out how to write the Color Conversion of the RGB-files to CMYK into the Script.
In »convertProfile« how do I address the ICC-Profiles and the Intent?
Once again help would be appreciated, as I simply cant seem to figure it out from the Adobe-documentation on Javascript or a web-search.

GET FULL URL without the file

Hi,
I need to get the
http://www.mysite.com/images/
without coding it in so I can use it on multiple sites without
re-coding. Basically it is an email systems where I want to include
an email header and footer. In order for this to work the images
need to have full paths to the images on the server. I have tried
<cfset mypath = "
http://#cgi.server_name##cgi.script_name#
">
This returns
http://localhost/clients/broker2/layout/siteadmin/email/email_news.cfm
wich is good except the file name at the end.
So I guess my question is - How do you take off the filename?
I want this to work on different pages without re-coding.
How do I take out just the filename ( anything after the last

That works,
But while I was waiting for an answer I came up with
<cfset myPath = replace(GetDirectoryFromPath("
http://"&cgi.server_name&
cgi.path_info),"\","")>
Both seem to work

Previously Firefox would show a number at the end of the file name (renaming the file by adding a number) showing that I had already downloaded a file at least once before. Recently that isn't happening. How do I get that feature back?

Can you get the file name of the current executing TSQL script?

Can you get the file name of the current executing TSQL script? I wrote entries to a generic log file and would like to include the script name.

Okay, So What you can do is
1. Read get the version from your database and redirect it to a text file(SQLCMD outout can be directed to text file using -o option or windows redirection operator >)
2. Now you can read this value from the text file either inside a batch file or a powershell script and decide what operations you can do.

Get a font's file name from the font's postscript name (on Windows)

I am trying to obtain the the font file name when the only information I have is the font's 'postscript' name. (Emphasis: the font's name is postscript and not the font).
For example I have the following postscript name: TimesNewRomanPSMT.
The real name that is saved in the registry is: Times New Roman (TrueType).
Is there any way of obtaining that name from the given postscript name?
Currently I am coding this for Windows, but it should be compatible, or at least have alternative code for MacOS

Funny. I'm having the same problem and was about to post the exact same question
In Photoshop, there is "app.fonts", which lets you get a font's postscript name from the font's name. This doesn't exist in After Effects.
My only hope is that there's a way to get a font's postscript name in Visual Basic. I'll let you know if I find anything useful.

Get File Names & Creation Time of the files of a directory in App. Server

Dear all,
              My requirement is to fetch all the file names of a paritucular direcory in the application server. After going through SDN i got some FM's like
    1. EPS_GET_DIRECTORY_LISTING
    2. EPS_GET_FILE_ATTRIBUTES
    3. SUBST_GET_FILE_LIST
    Here EPS_GET_DIRECTORY_LISTING looks perfect for my requirement. But while I tried to test the FM from SE37 its giving exception READ_DIRECTORY_FAILED for the required Directory. But the same FM is returning file names for the root directory.
Please look a above 2 scenario...
ie. if I give Export parameter as
     DIR_NAME                         = '/'
     FILE_MASK                       = '*'
     The FM works fine.
But . if I give Export parameter as
     DIR_NAME                         = '/XYZ'
     FILE_MASK                       = '*'
    The FM returns exception READ_DIRECTORY_FAILED .
But the directory /XYZ exists and there are files in it..Am I missing something with respect to the path am specifying.

Getting File Name in Automator workflow - combine PDF

I am using Automator to combine 2 PDF files.
I would like to inherit one of the file names in the new PDF and append a standard text to the front of the file name.
I am not sure how to do this. I can combine the PDFs the way I would like, but I am not sure how to plick the file name.
my workflow is as follows.
Folder Action targets folder where 1st PDF is added(I want this FILE NAME).
Ger Specified finder item selects 2nd PDF to be combined.
Sort Finder Items makes sure the new PDF pages are ordered properly.
Combine PDF Pages combines the pages.
Move Finder Items saves the files where i want it.
Name single item is whre i thought to add my standard text plus the variable of FILE NAME.
Open File in mail to set up my email.
Anyone can help with this?
thanks,
Aaron

Here is an automator workflow that does something similar so I believe you can adapt to your needs. This workflow is setup as a service workflow. It will combine PDFs in the order in which they are selected/clicked via the Shift key. The default name of the combined output file will be the name of the first file clicked. Automator can be activated by CTRL clicking any of the selected PDFs.
1. Service receives PDF files in Finder
2. Automator Action: Run AppleScript
on run {input, parameters}
          display dialog "Files will be combined in the order selected via the Shift key" as text
          return input
end run
3.. Automator Action: Trim input items
keep the first one
you will need to download and install this autotmator action from here:
http://www.menace-enterprises.com/Files/Automator/Actions/Trim%20Input%20Items.d mg
4. Automator Action: Run AppleScript
(* Note & Definitions
This Applescript extracts the basename of the first selected file without its .pdf extension
"path_basename_ext" is full path and name, e.g. User/desktop/file.pdf
"NmExt" is filename with extension, e.g. file.pdf
"baseName" is the base filename without extension, e.g. file
"Ext" is the file's extension, e.g. pdf
on run {input, parameters}
          set path_basename_ext to input
          tell (info for path_basename_ext) to set {NmExt, Ext} to {name, name extension}
          set baseName to text 1 thru ((get offset of "." & Ext in NmExt) - 1) of NmExt
baseName
          return baseName
end run
5. Automator Action: Set Value of Variable
define baseName as the variable
6. Automator Action: Get selected finder items
Options: check ignore input
7. Automator Action: Combine PDF pages
choose Combine by appending
8. Automator Action: Move Finder Items
choose To: Desktop
Options: check show this action when workflow runs
9. Name Single Items
choose Basename only to: baseName
Options: check show this action when workflow runs
10. Open Finder Items

Should the web page address be included in the file name in the meta data dialog box?

In the page properties > meta data > below is a field with the label file name: (the the area to type in the field), after the field, it is labeled .html.
I have 2 questions here.
1. If I type in http//:www (my page url), do I include .html at the end? I didn't know if this is automatically added because it is off to the side of the field?
2. If I type in the entire URL address: http//:www (etc, etc).html, after closing the page properties dialog box, I make it a habit to double check my work. What happens is the http//:www.xxx changes to (htttpwww.xxx). It drops the //: on the URL.
So would it be better to just type in www.xxx (without the http//:www.xxx)
and do you type in the .html at the end?
I am assuming this will help with SEO page ranking or at least makes it easier for the search engines to crawl your site??
I hope this makes sense.
Advise would be very helpful.
Ben

You are absolutely correct with the URL Ben. Taking your above example, you just need to type in "Services" in the file name and the webpage will be exported as services.html and the URl will be www.xyz.com/services.html.
All the webpages (be it parent page or child page) gets physically saved at the root directory of your website on the server (where your website resides).
This name is just the name of the file using which it is physically stored and called from the server. It does not help search Engines to crawl deeper inside the website.
As I explained, "name which you wants the .html file to be stored with" here means the name of the physical file which is getting saved on the server.
Most users leave the file name same as Page name. If you have it different from page name then this will be the workflow :
Page Name : About
File Name : test
domain : www.mysite.com
Now if you are using a Menu Widget, it will list "About" in the Menu. And when end user will click on "About" then it will call the file named "test.html" from the server location (where all the files of your website are stored).
And it will open a page with address "www.mysite.com/test.html"
Hope I am able to explain the concept of File Name here. Please let us know if you have further queries on this.
Regards,
Sachin
