Hiding files with specific extensions

Being connected to our windows server, I see a bunch of garbage files that are usually hidden when viewed on a windows machine. Is there a way to hide files that contain a specific extension universally in finder?
Thanks!

No. and definitely not on a windows server.

When downloading a file, how do I tell Firefox to not do a virus scan of files with specific extensions such a .gif files?

I'm using AVG Free as my anti-virus program and always use the latest version. I have set scanning options in AVG to skip the scanning of gif and jpg files but that seems to be ignored when I am downloading a very small file of either type. The "Downloads" (Ctrl J) pop-up window shows the progress of the download and scan. At times, the virus scan is so miserably slow for simple gif and jpg files that it is a while until I can once more move my mouse cursor.
By the way, I'm using version 3.6.17 Firefox and WIN 7 Premium.

Unfortunately, I continue to have the problem. Just to make sure, following your suggestion, I shut down Firefox then restarted it but had the same result. Similarly, I rebooted after making the changes but again, no difference. Ah well...
Just thought I'd attach this partial screen print to show that I am in Firefox and that I am downloading a file -- in this case, a daily Doonesbury gif file.
Thanks for the suggestion though.

[SOLVED] Delete recursively all files with certain extensions

Hi all,
I am trying to recursively delete files with specific extensions. Many of these files have names containing spaces. The following, that I found googling around, didn't work:
find /media/TSUNAMI -name '*out' -or -name '*aux' -or -name '*log' -or -name '*.blg' -or -name '*.toc' -or -name '*.bcf' -or -name '*.swp' -or -name '*blx' | rm
find /media/TSUNAMI -name '*out' -or -name '*aux' -or -name '*log' -or -name '*.blg' -or -name '*.toc' -or -name '*.bcf' -or -name '*.swp' -or -name '*blx' -type f -ok rm '{}' ';'
find /media/TSUNAMI -name '*out' -or -name '*aux' -or -name '*log' -or -name '*.blg' -or -name '*.toc' -or -name '*.bcf' -or -name '*.swp' -or -name '*blx' -exec rm -f '{}' \;
find /media/TSUNAMI -name '*out' -or -name '*aux' -or -name '*log' -or -name '*.blg' -or -name '*.toc' -or -name '*.bcf' -or -name '*.swp' -or -name '*blx'| xargs /bin/rm -f
find /media/TSUNAMI -name '*out' -or -name '*aux' -or -name '*log' -or -name '*.blg' -or -name '*.toc' -or -name '*.bcf' -or -name '*.swp' -or -name '*blx' -exec /bin/rm -f '{}' \;
find /media/TSUNAMI -name '*out' -or -name '*aux' -or -name '*log' -or -name '*.blg' -or -name '*.toc' -or -name '*.bcf' -or -name '*.swp' -or -name '*blx'| xargs -0 rm
and I think that it was the following that deleted all the files (except the directories):
find /media/TSUNAMI -name '*out' -or -name '*aux' -or -name '*log' -or -name '*.blg' -or -name '*.toc' -or -name '*.bcf' -or -name '*.swp' -or -name '*blx' -type f -delete
What am I doing wrong here?
Thanks a lot in advance.
PS. While writing this I realized that I fogot the dot in out, aux, log, and blx
PS2. I'm experimenting around and don't mind deleting all the files if I do a mistake

The implicit "and" operator binds stronger than the "or" (-o) operator. Therefore
| -name a -o -name b -delete |
will be grouped like this:
| (-name a) -o ( -name b -delete ) | .
You want to group it like this:
| ((-name a ) -o ( -name b )) ( -delete ) | ,
so you need to add some manual grouping:
| ( -name a -o -name b ) -delete |

Receiving multiple files with dual extension using file adapter

Hi,
The scenario where I am implementing requires multiple files of different names to be picked(ABC.txt) and dropped at destination(ABC.txt.pgp) up by my File Sender and Receiver adapters. Any idea on about how the configuration for receiving multiple files with dual extension for receiver adapter is to be done?
Note:- currently, The scenario is working fine without dual extension. i.e Its picking all files which starts with ABC and creating at destination as it is. even I configured as ABC.txt.pgp, but its not creating the second extension.
Thanks in Advance
Manmadha

Hi,
Try to concatenate '.pgp ' to the source file name to create the target file name for the receiver file adapter, by accessing the Adapter Specific Attributes using Java user defined function. This might work.

How do I add a filter in JFileChooser for files with no extension?

Is it possible to have a filter with that filters out files with no extension in a JFileChooser?
Any help is appreciated.

When you override accept(File), get the filename from the File object, and parse out the extension. I don't remember there being an easy way to get the extension besides looking for a dot and parsing. If there's no extension, accept it.

Files with .ejb extension

Hi,
I am using the <javadoc> task in an Ant build file. I have several EJB files with th extension .ejb that I want to have included in my javadocs.
I have the following code:
<target name="javadoc" description="Build Java Documentation">
 <javadoc destdir="${doc.dir}">
 <fileset dir="src">
 <include name="**/*.ejb" />
 </fileset>
 </javadoc>
</target>However, when I run this I get the following error:
[javadoc] javadoc: Illegal package name: "C:\src\com\test\ejb\CommandInputEJB.ejb"I do need the .ejb file extension for another tool to work (Ejbgen). Is there a way to get this working?
Thanks in advance for any help!
Arjan Huijzer

Hi Arjun
I'm still learning all of this myself with Ant, but looking at your script, it does not appear to be complete. I understand that you need to have certain tags included. The Ant task documentation gives good information, but in brief, in the list of parameters, the required options are indicated. Your script as a minimum, must include either 'sourcepath', 'sourcepatheref', or 'sourcefiles' and you then must include '<d>destdir' (which you already use).
You can find the documentation here:
http://ant.apache.org/manual/CoreTasks/javadoc.html
I have never included external files such as the EJB ones you are using, but I have written my own script for generating JavaDoc HTML output. Feel free to use it if it helps.
It uses an external file for the package list (sourcepath), called from the property:
 <property name="JDOCSOURCELIST" value="JDOCSourceList.properties" /> 
This is the same as the -sourcepath option of the standard JavaDoc docelt. It is formatted:
<code>
com.supersaus.server
com.supersaus.server.factories
\\\\S5\\Documentation\\com\\supersaus\\common\\Association.java
\\\\S5\\Documentation\\com\\supersaus\\common\\CData.java
</code>
Other properties used in the script are:
<code>
<property name="JDOCDIRECTORY" value="JavaDocOutput" />
<property name="SOURCECODEROOT" value="\\\\S5\\Documentation" />
<property name="STYLESHEET" value="./stylesheet.css" />
<property name="BOTTOM" value="Supersaus 2004" />
<property name="DOCTITLE" value="Supersaus Common Files" />
<property name="LINK" value="http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.4.2/docs/api" />
<property name="OVERVIEW" value="doc-files\\Saus_Overview.htm" />
</code>
The main ant target is built up as follows:
<code>

<target name="BuildJavaDoc">
<splash/> 
<echo message="Please wait whilst the document is generated into the folder ${JDOCDIRECTORY}" />
 
 <javadoc destdir="${JDOCDIRECTORY}"
 sourcePath="${SOURCECODEROOT}"
 packageList="${JDOCSOURCELIST}"
 maxmemory="180M"
 stylesheetfile="${STYLESHEET}"
 bottom="${BOTTOM}"
 Doctitle="${DOCTITLE}"
 Windowtitle="${DOCTITLE}"
 Overview="${OVERVIEW}" >
 <Link href="${LINK}"/>
 </javadoc>
</target>
</code>
Hope all this helps?

Files with .a extension using ftp transport

Hi.
Am using ftp adapter in osb to read .txt files(e.g. abcd.txt) from ftp location, process the body/text() in OSB and then place the incoming file to an outbound folder.
the flow is like ftp-> Proxy Service->Business Service->outbound ftp
the service works fine where then is less load or the no. of incoming files is less.
However,sometimes the outbound folder contains the files with .a extension at the end.(e.g. abcd.txt.a)
Can someone tell me the rootcause of these .a file creation and the scenarios in which the .a files are created.
Also,please tell me what are these .a files meant for?
How,can I eliminate this while configuring the services using ftp transport.
Thanks in adavance

I had this recently with a variety of FTP servers, FileZilla, Microsoft etc.
For me, it happened when the file already exists in the destination and I was expecting the destination file to be overwritten. My application would generate the same filename, say FileA.txt and expect that to be overwritten, but with OSB 10gR3 I would get files with .a stuck on the end.
This functionality changed between ALSB and OSB and I had a patch developed to restore the ALSB functionality.
I spent ages looking at it, and debugging FTP commands and going from memory, I'm pretty certain that the FTP adapter doesn't implement the correct FTP spec for the RNFR command according to the RFC in the case where a file already exists - it doesn't handle overwrite.
Hope that may help.

How to create PDF from text file with specific layout?

I wanted to create the pdf from text file in specific layout - Landscape orientation and JIS B3 Page size while at Adobe Acrobat Pro.
In past, I could do a right click on a text file (desktop area) and select print to print out the document into .pdf BUT only if I set the Adobe PDF to Landscape and JIS B3 Page size BEFORE. And I could only do 15 text documents at once.
I wanted to see if I could do the create the pdf from text file with specific layout in Adobe Acrobat without having to go to Control Panel to preset the Adobe PDF to specific layout at every time. I would have to set Adobe PDF back to normal layout after I'm done with these pdf print outs. I do lots of pdfs in normal layout. Sometimes I would forget to do that.
So, How do I do that?

No such luck. It would output the contents in letter size even in JIS B3 Page layout at MS word.
Is there a script or action where I could set the orientation and page size before creating PDF on these text files?

Writing a report file with specific information

Hi, all:
I need to write a text file with specific information in it. I'm going to copy it into Excel, so the easier the format, the better (perhaps CSV format?). I've never done this before, so here's the method I need to capture the information from:
 public void step() {
 greenColorStorage = new ArrayList();
 magentaColorStorage = new ArrayList();
 System.out.println( "==> Model step " + getTickCount() );// Checking step #
 for (int i = 0; i < soldierList.size (); i++) {
 Soldier s = (Soldier) soldierList.get (i);
 s.step();
 Collections.shuffle(soldierList);
 System.out.println("Shuffling collection now.");
 dsurf.updateDisplay ();
 System.out.println("Model.step() finished.");
 for (int i = 0; i < soldierList.size (); i++) {
 Soldier s = (Soldier) soldierList.get (i);
 if (s.getMyColor() == Color.green ) {
 greenColorStorage.add(s);
 if (s.getMyColor() == Color.magenta ) {
 magentaColorStorage.add(s);
 if (magentaColorStorage.size() == 0 || greenColorStorage.size() == 0 ) {
 stop();
 }In this method, I need to capture this information: There are soldiers on the Green team and on the Magenta team. I need to know how many there are originally, how many in this time step, at what time step the model stops, and how many of the winning color team are left when the model stops. How do I do this? If you can point me to a specific thread that shows how to write a report file like this, I'd be grateful, since I couldn't find one when I searched. Otherwise, I'd be grateful for examples. I'm in the middle of doing some research, and I have the feeling that I'll need to write report files in the future, so if you'd explain any code you provide, I would be quite grateful--I need to understand what I'm doing as well as simply using your code so that I can really learn what I'm doing when I do this again. Thanks very much!

File with pls extension opens with data modeler instead of sql developer

Hello,
I have both SQL Developer and Data Modeler installed as separate installations. If I click in the Windows File navigator on a file with the extension pls, the SQL Developer should open since the pls extension has been connected to SQL Developer.
If I have neither SQLD nor DM open, SQLD opens -> ok
If I have only SQLD open, the file is opened in SQLD -> ok
If I have only DM open, the file is opened in DM -> not ok
If I have both SQLD and DM open, the last started application opens the file -> sometimes ok
Is it possible to manage the opening of a pls to open always in SQL Developer?
Joop

This is quite an old problem which I have seen with JDeveloper and SQLDeveloper so it may be framework related. I don't currently have both installed to check it out, but as it has been around a long time I doubt it has gone away.
SQL files would open in either JDeveloper or SQL Developer following the pattern Joop described. Java files would only ever open in JDeveloper. IIRC there was never a SQL file association for JDeveloper and SQLDeveloper was always the default.

How to output a postscript file with .ps extension name in jsp?

Hi,
I could use a servlet to output a postscript file with .ps file extension name. But I tried to do the same with jsp, for some reason, jsp always outputs a file with .jsp extension name though the content is postscript. Could anyone help me on this? Here is my jsp code:
<%@page contentType="application/postscript"%>
<%@page pageEncoding="UTF-8"%>
<%@page import="java.util.*" %>
<%@page import="java.io.*" %>
<jsp:useBean id="corresv" class="oiintranet.CorresVBean" scope="request"/>
<%
response.setContentType("application/postscript");
String corresId = request.getParameter("Id");
corresv.setCorresId(corresId);
PrintWriter output = response.getWriter();
output = corresv.getResult(output);
output.flush();
%>
In the bean corresv:
public class CorresVBean extends BaseBean {
private String corresId;
public void setCorresId(String s) {
this.corresId = s;
public PrintWriter getResult(PrintWriter output) {
//get postscript file content from a socket, one string line each time until reaches "X_END"
String str;
while ((str = in.readLine()) != null) {
if (str.equals("X_END")) break;
output.println (str);
output.close();
}catch(Exception e) {
e.printStackTrace();
return output;
Thank you in advance.

Xdg-open is opening files with no extension in wine notepad

xdg-open is opening files with no extension in wine notepad. This is really annoying. How can I change it?

Click on "Browse" button at the "Open With" dialog and navigate to the location, where acrord32.exe is located. Preferebly, it should be this location "C:\Program Files\Adobe\Reader 9.0\Reader\AcroRd32.exe" unless you have installed at some customized location. I'm assuming you have installed Reader 9. Once you add Adobe Reader in the open with list, it would continue to appear next time onwards.
