How do i determine a path?

I'm having to restore my Raid from a tape library (Using Bakbone Netvault), and because i want to restore the data to a different Raid, I have to enter the path to that raid.
However, i haven't a clue how to determine the path!! And tech support at Bakbone couldn't tell me how to find it. All i know is the Raid appears on the desktop. Please can someone tell me how to determine what the path actually is ?
thanks
Adam

You can open the terminal window then drag the desktop icon to the terminal window. This will show the complete path. I am not familiar with your exact situation however, since I have not work with raid devices.
Macintosh-HD -> Applications -> Utilities -> Terminal
you can type CD for the change directory command. Useful commands would be:
cd /Users/mac/Desktop/page 4.dmg
pwd
ls -lF
#the ls command is for list
# l is long
# F is type of file where / is directory
mac $ cd /Volumes/Classic/
mac $ pwd
/Volumes/Classic
mac $ ls -lF

How can you determine the absolute path to a dynamically created NetStream object?

We are trying to implement video captioning with a freeware component, ccforflash. This requires us to provide an absolute or relative path to our NetStream object. How can we determine this path in Flash CS5 AS3?
From the CCforFlashCS5 documentation:
"2. Object name and path
Type the name and path. This is the instance name of the object with which CCforFlashAS3 will synchronize. It must be spelled correctly, since CCforFlashAS3 will query the object with this name for timing information in order to synchronize the captions. The path must also be included; either relative to the CCforFlashAS3 component (i.e. this.parent) or the absolute path from the main level of the movie (root)."

It would be easier if the NetStream object was created on an easily identifiable place on the timeline. This player has an MVC architecture. The NetStream object is created in a subclass to Model class, which is itself a subclass of the EventDispatcher object. The View class access it via an interface.
As you can guess, it's not that straightforward to determine where the NetStream object is located on the timeline. This is compounded by the fact that the NetStream object does not have a name property.
I've tried methods like these, but they only work for the DisplayObject class:
public static function displayObjectPath( avDisplayObject : DisplayObject ) :String
var lvPath:String = "";
do
if( avDisplayObject.name ) {
// var obj_name:String = (avDisplayObject.name == 'root1') ? 'root' : avDisplayObject.name;
if (avDisplayObject.name != 'root1') {
lvPath = avDisplayObject.name
+ ( lvPath == "" ? "" : "." + lvPath );
} else {
trace("displayObjectPath() NO NAME avDisplayObject="+avDisplayObject);
} while( avDisplayObject = avDisplayObject.parent );
return lvPath;
} // displayObjectPath
private function showChildren(d:DisplayObjectContainer):void {
trace("showChildren()");
if (d.numChildren>0) {
for (var c:Number = 0; c < d.numChildren; c++) {
trace("showChildren c=",c," name=",d.getChildAt(c).name);

How to determine actual path/location of Outlook Public Folder favorite?

I have several end users that use the Public Folder favorite system in Outlook. Our Public Folder structure is very large and messy which makes finding these favorites difficult to find. When I go to the properties of the favorited folder, it does not find
the actual path.
Is there a PowerShell command or some tool that will allow me to determine the path?
Thanks in advance,

Hi,
Public Folders can be set as a Favorite Folder at 2 levels in Outlook. one within the Public Folder structure and one within the Navigation Pane:
http://www.msoutlook.info/question/281
Seems you are using the favorite in the Public Folder structure. We can find the folder path by right-clicking and select Properties, and then select
Summary tab. Now you can see the path from the Folder Path field:
Hope this helps.

How Can I Determine the Size of the 'My Documents' Folder for every user on a local machine using VBScript?

Hello,
I am at my wits end into this. Either I am doing it the wrong way or it is not possible.
Let me explain. I need a vb script for the following scenario:
1. The script is to run on multiple Windows 7 machines (32-Bit & 64-Bit alike).
2. These are shared workstation i.e. different users login to these machines from time to time.
3. The objective of this script is to traverse through each User Profile folder and get the size of the 'My Documents' folder within each User Profile folder. This information is to be written to a
.CSV file located at C:\Temp directory on the machine.
4. This script would be pushed to all workstations from SCCM. It would be configured to execute with
System Rights
I tried the script detailed at:
http://blogs.technet.com/b/heyscriptingguy/archive/2005/03/31/how-can-i-determine-the-size-of-the-my-documents-folder.aspx
Const MY_DOCUMENTS = &H5&
Set objFSO = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")
Set objShell = CreateObject("Shell.Application")
Set objFolder = objShell.Namespace(MY_DOCUMENTS)
Set objFolderItem = objFolder.Self
strPath = objFolderItem.Path
Set objFolder = objFSO.GetFolder(strPath)
Wscript.Echo objFolder.Size
The Wscript.Echo objFolder.Size command in the script at the above mentioned link returned the value as
'0' (zero) for the current logged on user. Although the actual size was like 30 MB or so.
I then tried the script at:
http://www.experts-exchange.com/Programming/Languages/Visual_Basic/VB_Script/Q_27869829.html
This script returns the correct value but only for the current logged-on user.
Const blnShowErrors = False
' Set up filesystem object for usage
Set objFSO = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")
Set objShell = CreateObject("WScript.Shell")
' Display desired folder sizes
Wscript.Echo "MyDocuments : " & FormatSize(FindFiles(objFSO.GetFolder(objShell.SpecialFolders("MyDocuments"))))
' Recursively tally the size of all files under a folder
' Protect against folders or files that are not accessible

End If
End Function

Function FormatSize(iSize)
aLabel = Array("bytes", "KB", "MB", "GB", "TB")
For i = 0 to 4
If iSize > 1024 Then iSize = iSize / 1024 Else Exit For End If
Next
FormatSize = Round(iSize, 2) & " " & aLabel(i)
End Function
Sub ShowError(strLocation, strMessage)
If blnShowErrors Then
WScript.StdErr.WriteLine "==> ERROR at [" & strLocation & "]"
WScript.StdErr.WriteLine " Number:[" & Err.Number & "], Source:[" & Err.Source & "], Desc:[" & Err.Description & "]"
WScript.StdErr.WriteLine " " & strMessage
Err.Clear
End If
End Sub
The only part pending, is to achieve this for the 'My Documents' folder within each User Profile folder.
Is this possible?
Please help.

Here are a bunch of scripts to get folder size under all circumstances. Take your pick.

How do I determine what is my CURRENT Profile, because Profile manager shows 3 and all the Q&As are ambiguous in that respect. Thx.?

Yes, I see ambiguity. I also have some old backed up profiles and I have 3 profiles showing under the Profile Manager. The folder under "%APPDATA%\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\ " shows 2 of them, but HOW do I determine WHICH ONE is my current profile?? So far I was unable to browse up a clear answer. Thx.

Somehow the newest Profile ''(Profile 2)'' ended up in the \Profiles\ folder instead of in it's own Profile folder which would have a name similar to the other two Profiles - 8 alpha / numeric string ''followed by'' a suffix, ''either Firefox assigned or user specified, like JP1''. <br />'''Default=1''' indicates the "active" Profile so we know that is the most current Profile.
<pre><nowiki>[Profile2]
Name=JP1
IsRelative=1
Path=Profiles
Default=1 </nowiki></pre>

How can I determine what LLB a VI is being loaded from?

I've been frustrated switching between versions when an application opens and suddenly can not find a VI which is being loaded from a LLB. How can I determine what LLB (or other type of library) a VI is being loaded from ?
Is there a list of all libraries along with what VIs are included in them somewhere?
Thanks,
Dave

In the context help, enable "Show Optional Terminals and Full Path ", then just hover over your VI, either on the diagram on in the hierarchy view.

How the system determines the Requirement type for one sales order

Hi,
SAP-SD Gurus,
Please tell me how the system determines the Requirement type for one sales order?
Thanks & Regards,
Sreenivas.P

Hi,
System follows some search criterial to determine the requirement type
1. First, an attempt is made to find a requirements type using the strategy group in the material master.
2. If the strategy group has not been maintained, the system will determine it using the MRP group.
3. If the MRP group has not been defined, the system uses the material type instead of the MRP group when accessing the corresponding control tables.
4. If no requirements type is found here, the system assumes a special rule and attempts to find a requirements type with the aid of the item category and the MRP type.
5. If this is not possible, a last attempt is made to find a requirements type with the item category only.
6. If the last attempt fails, the system declares the transaction as not relevant for the availability check or transfer of requirements.
Please check the path
SPRO->SALES & DISTRIBUTIONS->BASIC FUNCTIONS>AVAILABILITY CHECK AND TOR->TRANSFER OF REQUIREMENTS--->DETERMINATION OF REQUIREMENT TYPE USING TRANSACTION.
Hope it will clarify

How to get absolute directory path of a resource?

Hi,
I wished to retrieve the absolute directory path of a resource, for example, "demo.test" in the folder of "/document/personal". How to I get the value "/document/personal", is there any IPropertyName i could use?
Thanks for any suggestions.

Hi,
first, the accessRID is the RID which was used at creation time, maybe containing links; these are resolved, so you will get the "physical" place where the file is stored by <i>getRID</i>.
Second, to determine the path without the name of the file, there are at least three possibilities without looping (resource, the file, is an instance of IResource):
1.) String path = resource.getParentCollection().getRID().toString();
2.) String path = resource.getRID().toString().substring(0, resource.getRID()().toString().lastIndexOf('/'));
3.) String path = resource.getRID()().toString().substring(0, resource.getRID()().toString().length() - resource.getName().length());
Solution 1 seems to be very intuitive (you ask for the folder path, where the file is in), 2 & 3 are shorter than a loop, but not intuitive and in general dangerous (when using substring, you have to take care of exceptions caused by strange parameters).
Hope it helps

Hi,
Have you debug these two applications? Does it go into the catch exception block when you close the client or the server?
According to my test, it will throw an exception when the client or the server is closed, just log the exception message in the catch block and then you'll get it:
private async void Process()
try
while (true)
var data = await this.Receive();
this.NewMessage.Invoke(Encoding.ASCII.GetString(data));
catch (Exception exception)
Console.WriteLine(exception.Message);
Unable to read data from the transport connection: An existing connection was forcibly closed by the remote host.
By the way, I don't know what the SafeInvoke method is, it may be an extension method, right? I used Invoke instead to test it.

How to get the destination path in an photoshop sdk export plugin when using a batch action?

Hello,
I've written an exporter plugin (not save-as) that exports a given file to a custom format.
I was able to open a file selector dialog and choose a path that is then transported to the saving location.
Now my problem is: Another intended use is batch exporting many files. The user records an action with the export step and then applies a batch on it.
The PS batch window allows you to select the destination to be a directory where the exporter should write the data. Fine.
Now how do I get this path? When running in batch mode the silent flag is set for my plugin so I do not spawn a file selector dialog to annoy the user.
But I am also unable to obtain the path which was selected by the user in the batch window.
The SDK automation plugin Getter has some code to retrieve the path of the file and even that fails as it cannot obtain anything.
PropertyUtils.h has some PIGetWorkPathIndex and PIGetPathName functions but I always get 0 when asking PIGetNumberPaths, and get -1 with PIGetWorkPathIndex.
I would be thankful if somebody could hint me how I can retrieve directories.
It even seems impossible for me to get the path where the file is actually saved. The filter plugin called Propertizer utilizes a function called PIGetDocumentName but this only outputs the file name, not the full path.
(Just to be sure: The file on which the tests run is already saved to disk, if that matters)
Another fun part is: When I record an export step, what is the directory I am exporting into?

Ok, after lots of reading the sdk sample outbound I've realized that or plugin is broken.
When recording an action the outbound plugin stores the current path to gAliasHandle which is then recorded as a scripting parameter. Now when I execute the action I get the alias handle.
However how is this supposed to work with an export plugin and batch processing with a "destination" set to a target? Is this even possible or do I need to double click the export step in the action and "reset" the location even if that causes the entire exporter to run again?

How to get the file path in adf application

hii all,
i have a txt file that i am using in my adf application,
i am passing this txt file through a File Reader, for which i have to mention the file path.
The file is in web-content and when i am hard coding the complete file path i.e C:/JDeveloper/myApp/ViewController/public_html/log.txt
the application is working fine when run on integrated weblogic server.
My requirement is to access this file without giving the static file path, as in case i have to use this application on any other machine..
for that how to mention the file path-
i tried using FacesContext to get the context path :-
FacesContext.getCurrentInstance().getExternalContext().getRequestContextPath();
which gives me
\myApp-ViewController-context-root
after appending public_html\log.txt
I am using the following path to access the file :-
\myApp-ViewController-context-root\public_html\log.txt
again i am getting the java.io.FileNotFoundException
Does anyone know how to use file from inside the web-content without giving the complete path..???
Thanks

Hi,
If you put your file under public_html folder, you can use this code to access the file:
For example file is : log.txt
FacesContext.getCurrentInstance().getExternalContext().getRealPath('/log.txt').toString().trim();
Thanks.

How to get the current path of my application in java ?

how to get the current path of my application in java ?
thanks

To get the path where your application has been installed you have to do the following:
have a class called "what_ever" in the folder.
then you do a litte:
String path=
what_ever.class.getRessource("what_ever.class").toString()
That get you a string like:
file:/C:/Program Files/Cool_program/what_ever.class
Then you process the result a little to remove anything you don't want:
path=path.substring(path.indexOf('/')+1),path.lastIndexOf('/'))
//Might be a little error here but you should find out //quickly if it's the case
And here you go, you have a nice
C:/Program Files/Cool_program
which is the path to your application.
Hooray

How do i determine a path?
