How do i check the size of a file?

I want to be able to determine the size of a file in a directory. If the file has size 0kb (ie. no content), i need to be alerted to this. Is there an easy way to do this without having to read the contents of the file itself?
thanks.

File.length();

  • How can i change the size of PDF files ?

    how can i change the size of PDF files? when i convert documents in the acrobat browser it seems the files become larger then normal pdf files, this is, i compare with other files that people send to me and i realise that they are smaller than my converted files, even if they have more pages.

    A lot depends on the form of the PDF. Is it graphics, a scan of a text file, pure text, or other? What version of Acrobat are you working with.
    You can do a save as to get a WORD file, but do not expect great results. The ability to get a decent WORD file depends on what the form of PDF you are working from. If it was created from WORD with tags and all, you might get good results. If not, you might get a lot of messed up results.
    Explain what you are starting with and your ultimate goal. Also check the audit of the file (should be under PDF Optimize) to see where the file information is concentrated (text, fonts, graphics, other).

  • How can I check the size of the spool in my system?

    Hi,
    I need to check the size of the spool in my system. How can I check that?
    Let me know please.
    Much Thanks!

    I am not sure if you are looking for this...
    In Sp01 check your spool no and click on 'Request attributes'(a hat kind of icon). and in TemSe Attributes tab you will see the size in bytes.
    Award points if it helps.

  • How do I know the size of a file

    Hi,
    Would anybody please show me how to get the size of a file. for example, I create a file like this
    FileInputStream FINPUT = new FileInputStream ("c:\\testing.prn");
    I need to know the size of FINPUT before using it but I don't know how.
    note: It is not neccessary to use FileInputStream. I can use any stream or file that allow me to check the size and read out the data from the file byte by byte.
    Thanks a lot.
    Hung

    Thank you for your responding. But, how can I read out the data? I need to read the data from the file byte by byte.
    Thanks

  • How can I get the size of a file with apple script

    I try to get the size of a file within an apple script. But I did not find information how to do this.

    There are two ways. I think Apple is moving toward using System Events, which is listed first.tell application "Finder"
    set myFile to selection as alias
    --this just gets a file for me to work with
    --coercing it into an alias is required for the other functions
    end tell
    tell application "System Events"
    get size of myFile
    end tell

  • How to find out the size of a file?

    Hi,
    I would like to determine the size of a file from my code. How is that possible? I do not find any appropriate method in the java.io.File class.
    Any help would be very appreciated!

    java.io.File.length()
    Returns the size of the file as a long. The number corresponds to the number of bytes in the file.

  • How do I get the size of a file on a server with an Applet

    Hei,
    I have a problem. I have some files that I need to read in with InputStream to get an Array of bytes. The Applet and the files are on the same server.
    My Prob is, that when I use
    URL(daFile).getFile().getSize();
    it only gives the inaccurate size from the dirlisting (i.e. 48 for 48k)
    So I can not build an array with the correct Size.
    Does anyone knows how I get the correct size of a file.
    Big thx
    LoCal

    Appler can open connections to server it was downloaded from. You don't need such complicated API as RMI... Just simple java server listening for queries.
    Like this:
    Applet:
    1. take a file path
    2. connect to simple server (gives OutputStream and InputStream)
    3. create ObjectOutputStream and send fiel to server (File is serializable)
    4. Read String with size from input stream
    Server
    1. Wait for connection
    2. When client connected create ObjectInputStream and expect File instance
    3. Get file size
    4 Replay with String with size
    Like this...

  • How can I limit the size of a file generated by 3rd party code?

    I have a program that loads plugins from a directory and executes code in those plugins. These plugins are classes that implement a standard interface within my API. I want to be able to monitor for files generated by these plugins. Usually there are no more than 2 plugins running at once, so I could end up with 2 plugins writing files. An example would be a plugin creating an SQLite database on the filesystem.
    I could monitor the current directory and guess who's file it is, but what if the files get written elsewhere? Can I do something in Java that limits what directories the Java process can write to?
    I wouldn't mind being able to track their memory and CPU usage, but I don't think I can do much about that.

    Thank you. I just needed to be pointed in the right direction. After looking over this stuff, including FilePermission, I think this may give me what I was looking for. It will be a while before I get to implementing it or testing something like this, I'm just trying to get a grasp on all of the things I need to do and how to approach it.
    By doing this I can control how much filespace it can use.
    I can control CPU usage by monitoring for extra threads that don't belong and killing or settings the priority on it.
    Now I just need to think of something to monitor how much memory the plugin uses. I suppose I could gc, then store the current memory usage, then execute the plugin, gc again, and measure the size again. Does that sound like a reasonable way to estimate it's memory usage? I'm not looking for tiny changes, I just want to see large, substantial increases.

  • How can I limit the size of a file upload?

    I am uploading a file using a file reference using the code below.  I want to  limit the file size (bytes) of the uploaded file to 100k, so that a huge file won't crash the browser or my SWF.
    What's the best place in the following process to test this, and actually prevent the large file from being loaded?  Is that even possible?
    private function uploadImageBtn_clickHandler() : void {
         var arr:Array = [];
         arr.push(new FileFilter("Images", "*.gif;*.jpeg;*.jpg;*.png"));
         fileRef.browse(arr);
    private function fileReference_select(evt:Event):void {
         fileRef.load();
    private function fileReference_complete(event:Event):void {
         var loader:Loader = new Loader();
         loader.contentLoaderInfo.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, loader_complete);
         loader.loadBytes(fileRef.data);
    public function loader_complete (event:Event) : void {
         trace("Loader info = "+event.currentTarget.bytesLoaded); // file size in bytes
         var sourceBMP:Bitmap = event.currentTarget.loader.content as Bitmap;
         bgImage.source = sourceBMP;
