Sergey,
Here is an example file which looks through every file in a directory.http://zone.ni.com/devzone/cda/epd/p/id/2157
It should save you some time if you are having issues with your code.

  • When looking at my "About This Mac" it says that I have 60gb of space left on my hard drive, but when I go into finder to find all of these files there is not 300gb worth in anything I search, even searching, "All files on the Mac". Help!?

    It says I have over 150 gigs of video on my hard drive. But I have gone through and deleted almost all of what shows up, still it says there is roughly the same amount on the hard drive. Where are these files? I want to delete them so I can have my hard drive clear.
    Thanks for your help guys!

    Quote from the article.
    Time Machine in OS X Lion includes a new feature called "local snapshots" that keeps copies of files you create, modify or delete on your internal disk. Local snapshots compliment regular Time Machine backups (that are stored on your external disk or Time Capsule) giving you a "safety net" for times when you might be away from your external backup disk or Time Capsule and accidentally delete a file.
    So what makes a notebook any different then a desktop, other then with a desktop you might have your tm backup drive connected all the time.
    The object here is to not indiscriminately delete files you need or want to keep. I personally have never deleted a file I wanted to keep.
    In essence a backup is for catastrophic failure of your system. So it can be restored once that failure has been fixed. Not because you go in willy nilly and start deleting files.

  • JFileChooser - Select All Files in the Directory

    Hi all. I am currently using JFileChooser and I need a functionality that will let the user choose a directory and then automatically select all the files that exists in that directory. I have tried looking around for references, but no luck so far. I hope someone can help. Thanks in advance.

    This is what I use frequently in my applications :
    * Requests the loading of all Images
    * in a directory.
    private void loadImageDirectory() {
      //create a FileFilter so the user only sees directories     
      javax.swing.filechooser.FileFilter dirfilter=new javax.swing.filechooser.FileFilter() {
        public boolean accept(File f) {
          if(f==null)
            return false;
          if(!f.isDirectory())
            return false;
          return true;
        public String getDescription() {
          return "Directories only";
      //now create the filechooser     
      JFileChooser jfc=new JFileChooser();
      jfc.setDialogTitle("Select a directory");
      jfc.setFileSelectionMode(JFileChooser.DIRECTORIES_ONLY);
      //remove the standard FileFilters (otherwise shows files too     
      jfc.resetChoosableFileFilters();
      //Set a FileFilter for directories only
      jfc.addChoosableFileFilter(dirfilter);
      int result=jfc.showOpenDialog(this);
      jfc_image_dir=jfc.getCurrentDirectory();
      if(result==JFileChooser.APPROVE_OPTION) {
        //here i call a method that does something with the directory     
        iv.addDirectory(jfc.getSelectedFile());
    }This always worked for me ??
    You might want to try??

  • JDeveloper doesn't show all files in the directory

    Hello,
    I think some basic functionalities are missing in JDeveloper, one of these basic functionalities is the importing of files. You can't import existing business components in your project, so you have to put them in a directory physically.
    I did it like that and now I'm facing this problem that some file's aren't being shown in the application navigator while I select system navigator, I see that they are in the correct path. I really don't understand why my project doesn't include the files in the application navigator...
    Can anyone tell me what's wrong or what to look for?
    Thanks.

  • Is there any way to play all files in a directory by one url?

    Hi all,
    I am testing fms this days, I have put all my files(such as 1.mp3,2.mp3...n.mp3) in my directory.
    I can play single file fine with url like this:
    rtmp://localhost/mp3/mp3:x/2
    but i want to know is there any way to play all files in my direcotry?
    for example, user click the play button, the player(smp) automatic plays all files in the directory, link windows media server.
    Should I use playlist? Or there is another better way?
    Thanks a lot.

    Hi,
    FMS do not directly take a directory to play files, the file names have to be fetched some way (through script if needed) to make a playlist and then the play command needs to be repeated as many times.
    Thank you !

  • How to remove all files in a directory in java?

    I have tried method delete() of File ,
    but no effect!
    can anyone help me!
    thank you

    So, you have a directory and you want to delete all files in the directory. Here is some (untested) code:
    File dir = new File("C:\\tempdir");
    File[] files = dir.listFiles();
    for (int i = 0; i < files.length; ++i) {
      if (files.isFile()) {
    files[i].delete();

  • Utility VI for searching for the occurance of a string in all files in a directory

    Is anyone aware of a utility VI that can search for a string(s) in all
    file types such as doc, xls, ppt etc in a specified directory?

    Greetings,
    I'm having an issue (using 8.5) with a directory read in. I've attached my elementary VI. Basically I want to read in mutliple files (they will be the same array size), and analyze each file. I am confident I will be able to analyze the data as necessary, I'm just having a problem parsing the data. Verbally I know exactly what I need to do just doesn't seem to be working in labview. Reading in the directory isn't the hard part, but breaking up the 2D data into the number of files I have apparently is for me. 
    1. Read in (user defined) directory
    2. List the file names | # of files in the directory
    3. Perform MAX value and % analysis of data on AMP array 
    Any help would be greatly appreciated. Even if it's just verbally pointing me in the right direction. I've attached the VI and 3 example data files I read in.
    Thanks in advance...I really feel like I should know this one, but I usually deal in individual files, this is my first directory read.
    Best Regards,

  • How to move all files to the top level folder?

    I want to move all files within a particular folder -- and all files in all sub folders -- to the top level. i.e. I want to collapse the folder structure to just one folder. Assume that there are no files with the same name.
    *Method 1*
    My first thought was to use Find:
    1. Limit Find to the particular folder.
    2. Find all files in the folder with Size > 0.
    3. Switch to List view. All files are listed.
    4. Select all files and drag to the top folder
    5. Delete all sub folders manually.
    Problem: Pages files are not found, and maybe others aren't.
    This is a simple method and I'd like to stick with it.
    *QUES 1*
    What condition should I set within Find so that I can be guaranteed of finding all files?
    *Method 2*
    It was suggested in another thread that I use Terminal to move all files to the top level, but I couldn't get it to work. And there was a problem with files that consist of bundles.
    *QUES 2*
    What is the easiest way to consolidate all files within a folder to the top level -- assume no duplicate names -- and at the same time remove all sub folders?
    Message was edited by: Guy Burns

    Thanks for the suggestion of EasyFind.
    To find all files in a certain folder I typed in *[a-z 0-9] as a Boolean search (this thread won't let me post the exact characters required by EasyFind). That should cover every file I've ever named. EasyFind came back with "11719found/12316done".
    Any idea what the missing 500 files would be? I'm hoping they are files that I don't need to know about (invisible files, system files and so on).

  • Search through files in a directory

    How do I get a list of the files in a directory? I am aware of JFileChooser but it is not what I am looking. I need to search the contents of the xml files in the directory. I can do this with one file but need to do it with them all.

    // where files in subdirectory \files below the application directory
    File dir = new File(".\\files\\");
      if(dir.exists()){
        File[] list = dir.listFiles();
        for (int i = 0; i < list.length; i++){
          String fileName = list.toString();
    int iPtr = fileName.lastIndexOf("\\");
    int jPtr = fileName.indexOf(".xml",0);
    if (jPtr>-1) {
    String longName = fileName;
    String shortName = fileName.substring(iPtr + 1, jPtr);
    // file name in short name

  • Read all files in a directory

    I need to compare the date of creation of multiple files that are being created throughout the execution of the application, so that if the date and time of the file is equal to the current date and time, a led will light up, and if not, the file will be deleted.
    I've made a VI, but I'm getting an error and I don't know how to fix it.
    What I need is for the vi to read all the files in the directory and continue reading all the files as they are created in the directory. The weird thing about this error is that it only shows up when I run it without highlight execution.
    Attachments:
    Date & Time comparison.vi ‏10 KB

    Several things come to mind.
    0. What error do you get? The error code or description can be very useful in identifying a problem.
    1. When a VI runs OK with execution highlighting and fails without, that usually indicates a timing problem.
    2. The inner loop runs as fast as possible because there is nothing in there to slow it down. Put a Wait (ms) in there to slow things down a bit.
    3. The loops will never stop.  Do not create infinite loops by wiring False constants to the Stop if True terminal. The inner loop should probably be a for loop which will automatically stop after checking all files. The outer loop should have something to stop it - a front panel button, error, something.
    4. The timestamp has approximately 19 digits of precision in the fraction of a second portion. The resolution is limited by the clock in the computer. The implication is that you will almost never get exact equality.  You need to define "how close" is close enough. Perhaps within 1 second? Then modify the comparison function to determine whether the timestamps are within that limit.

  • Deleting all files in a directory

    Hi,
    Is it possible to use cffile to delete all files in a
    directory. I have a function that creates a file in seperate parts
    and places the finished file into a folder. But I need a check to
    delete all files currently existing in said folder. I understand it
    is possible to query a folder for existing files and then use that
    query with cffile to delete the files... I just don't know how to
    do it.
    Thanks for your help

    I am not postivie, but I think I recall learning that the
    delete all function is prohibited via CF. You can delete specific
    files, though.
    If this is, in fact, the case, you could query the directory,
    and then loop through the resultant query, deleting each file one
    at a time.

  • [Bash] Massively replace text in all files of a directory

    Hi everybody,
    I wrote this small recursive function in order to massively replace some strings contained in all files of a directory (and all subdirectories). Any suggestions?
    replaceText() {
    # set the temporary location
    local tFile="/tmp/out.tmp.$$"
    # call variables
    local script="$2"
    local opts="${@:3}"
    browse() {
    for iFile in "$1"/*; do
    if [ -d "$iFile" ];then
    # enter subdirectory...
    browse "$iFile"
    elif [ -f $iFile -a -r $iFile ]; then
    echo "$iFile"
    sed $opts "s/$(echo $script)/g" "$iFile" > $tFile && mv $tFile "$iFile"
    else
    echo "Skip $iFile"
    fi
    done
    browse $1
    Syntax:
    replaceText [path] [script] [sed options (optional)]
    For example (it will replace "hello" with "hi" in all files):
    replaceText /home/user/mydir hello/hi
    Note: It is case-sensitive.

    falconindy wrote:Your lack of quoting is dangerous, as is your code injection in sed. I'm not sure why you're echoing a var inside a command substitution inside a sed expression, but it's going to be subject to word splitting, all forms of expansion, and may very well break the sed expression entirely, leading to bad things. A contrived example, but passing something like 'foo//;d;s/bar/' should effectively delete the contents of every file the function touches.
    So, if you consider it dangerous, you can adopt the whole "sed syntax" and confirm before continue...:

    Syntax:
    replaceText [parent directory] [sed arguments]

    replaceText /your/path -r 's/OldText/NewText/g'
    or, if you want to work directly with the current directory...
    replaceText() {
    # set the temporary location
    local tFile="/tmp/out.tmp.$$"

    How can I create a array of files or varchar with all files from a directory?

    I thought the example could be improved upon. I've posted a solution on my blog that doesn't require writing the directory list to a table. It simply returns it as a nested table of files as a SQL datatype. You can find it here:
