How do I set file properties (win XP) ?

Does anyone know how to set/modify a windows file properties inside Labview ? For exemple : change the author, the comment... etc.
Thank you !
J.K.

Hello,
It is not possible with advanced file I/O LabVIEW VIs.
There is a possible workaround by using low level Windows functions in a dll.
Perhaps the easier would be to set your properties at the top of your file.
You will find some explanations here :

How do I set individual properties for a column in report layout at runtime

How do I set individual properties for a column in report layout at runtime? I need to change this based on a user's input. This is for v10g.
I need to change either the "Read from File" attribute or the "File Format" attribute for one column based on the user's input. IS this possible?
Thanks in advance!

Hi,
define 2 columns and use format triggers to show the one or the other column.

How do I set File Sharing in iTunes to keep files up-to-date?

How do I set File Sharing in iTunes to keep files up-to-date? i tried iTunes File Sharing, but the updates to the files never transferred across the USB during sync. Tried to use Documents to Go, but the Apple behavior keeps them from syncing via USB, so when I am home and have no wifi/internet there is no way to transfer the files. The other apps I have looked at also use wifi/internet to get around the problematic Apple behavior, so there is no way to connect via USB that I have found other than the iTunes. Have not been able to locate any helpful information to configure the File Sharing to hotsync the files between pod and computer.

I am trying to USB sync Word, Excel, and PDF files between the ipod and the PC.
Pretty sure icloud has to have the internet to work, but I can try to see what USB options there are there when time permits.
Pretty sure dropbox has to have the internet to work, but I can try to see what USB options there are there when time permits.

How do i set file associations?

How do I set my ipad to pull up all apps that will open .jpeg files? In other words, how do i set file associations?

As King Penguin has stated it is done automatically and you cannot change the associations on your own either at this point. It is one of those features that would be nice to have, so if you like - ask Apple to add the feature via ....

Format plug-in: Setting file properties/metadata

Hello,
I am currently writing a plug-in to import a proprietary image format into Photoshop. The people who will use this plug-in believe it would be useful to have some file information displayed in the File Info dialog.
The problem I'm running into is finding the functions necessary to set these properties in the File Info dialog, as currently they are all entirely blank.
As a simple example, if I wanted to have the Document Title, Author, Description and Keywords read "Hello, world!" after I've read in an image, what functions would my plug-in have to call to set each of these text fields?
Is there a struct that my plug-in needs to modify, or a group of get/set functions to change these properties?
Any information would be extremely helpful, as documentation on the subject is very difficult to find in the SDK.
Thanks a lot!
Jack

Thanks for your help, Toby.
I've got an idea of how to configure the properties at this point. Simple properties work now, but I am still running into a bit of trouble setting complex options such as the Caption tag. I create a handle, populate it with the null-terminated string for the caption, and then I use setPropertyProc to link that handle to propCaption. The code would go something like this:
>Handle h = sPSHandle->New( captionLength );
>if( h )
>{
> Boolean locked;
> Ptr p;
>
> sPSHandle->SetLock( h, true, &p, &locked );
> // In here, use memcpy to copy a typical C string into p
> sPSHandle->SetLock( h, false, &p, &locked );
>
>sPSProperty->setPropertyProc(kPhotoshopSignature,propCaption,0,0,h);
>}
Basically when I run my plugin and open a file, the Description field is still blank, as it was before I tried to populate the fields.
Is there something wrong with my approach? Incidentally, I also encounter the same problem when I use the same property and handle suite methods that you do (FormatRecord->PropertyProcs and FormatRecord->HandleProcs instead of sPSProperty and sPSHandle respectively). From looking at other available code online, I'm assuming that there isn't a difference in behaviour. Please correct me if I'm wrong! :)

How do I set System properties within WL6.0?

I am setting WL6.0 up to have a startup class, but this class needs to
read system properties which have not yet been set. How do I set these
up within weblogic? I was able to get the startup class set up, but it
needs these system properties to continue.

Correct on all points. The one advantage of doing this in java is that you can more easily do more
complex things like accessing configuration information from a remote data store (like a database).
Dimitri Rakitine wrote:
These are not needed if you simply replace java ...lots of options... weblogic.Server with
java ...lots of options... startmyWLS in the script which starts WebLogic, but, on the other
hand, this solution is no different from simply adding -DmyProperty=myValue to the startup script
(I think that the ultimate goal is the ability to deploy(and redeploy!) components,
without any mods to the particular vendor's startup scripts of anything of that nature).

Thanks to robert for a quick workaround..
I tried to start the WLS with the following piece of code and actually i need to set
some additional properties
for successful server startup.
Here it is
import java.util.Properties;
public class startmyWLS
public static void main(String[] args)
Properties props = System.getProperties();
props.put("myProperty", "myValue");
props.put("bea.home", "E:\\bea");
props.put("weblogic.Domain", "mydomain");
props.put("weblogic.Name", "myserver");
props.put("java.security.policy",
"E:\\bea\\wlserver6.0\\lib\\weblogic.policy");
System.setProperties(props);
weblogic.Server.main(args);
Make sure you run this from E:\bea\wlserver6.0., as it tries to read config.xml
config\[your-domain-name] from this
directory.

That won't work since it has to be 'outside' of the code. It's a service, and
services are started when weblogic is started up, not when I call a bean.
And it has to be dynamic, since the properties will vary on evry installation.

You can also use System.setProperty() or a combination of

They are not normal system properties. I'm using some open source code, and
it requires settings to be system properties, but they are specific to the
application, which means that they are not already in the system
properties. I know how to get them, and after some more research, you can
set them on the command line when starting up weblogic. However, is this
the best way to set system properties?

How to modify a file .properties

Hi,
I wrote this function in order to modify the values in a generic property file :
    private boolean modifyPropertyValueForAkey(String KeyValue, String propValue) {
        // 1. acquisire il file properties
        Properties prop = new Properties();
        InputStream inStream = null;
        try {
            inStream = Computer_STATUS_ForNetworking.class.getResourceAsStream (nameOfThePropertyFile);
            prop.load(inStream); // abbiamo caricato prop (usando inFil)
            // a questo e' servito inStream
            inStream.close(); // chiuso il file per leggere
        } catch (IOException ex) {
           System.out.println("modifyPropertyValueForAkey (IOException 111) " + ex);
        // ======================
        //2.   bisogna avvisare che la modifica non si puo' fare
        if (prop.containsKey(keyValue) == false) {
            return false;
        // ======================
        // 3. scrivere (= salvare la modifica nel file properties)....
        OutputStream outFil = null;
        try {
            outFil = new FileOutputStream(nameOfThePropertyFile); // salvato il file
        } catch (FileNotFoundException exep) {
            System.out.println("modifyPropertyValueForAkey (FileNotFoundException 222) " + exep);
        try {
            // key = key_database_path_omTheServer
            prop.setProperty(KeyValue, propValue); // assegnare il valoe
            prop.store(outFil, "---No Comment---");   // salvare la modifica

            System.out.println("modifyPropertyValueForAkey (IOException) " + exeption);
        return true;
    }//modifyValuesInApplicationNetworkingConfiguration()I did it following a pattern that I found in the tutorial.
It looks to me to be correct, but it doesn't work..
What it is wrong there ?
I need some help to fix this problem.
thank you

tonyMrsangelo

hi,
thank you for answering me
the function doesn't work because, when the code is executed, the
value of the property (for the key that demand to be modified) doesn't change.
I am not sure about the part of the function that fails
(I know only that no exceptions are raised).
I run this function debugging the program, and
I realized that the .. the bug, in the program, come because the value of
the property that is expected to be changed it is not.
I made several tries to learn more about the fault....
but all I can learned is that, when I open the property file (using the
NetBeans IDE) the value of the property doesn't change..
thank you

How to change pdf file properties?

Hi all,
Preview works great at generating PDFs from Word files, but the metadata fields (e.g., author, title, etc.) don't come over accurately. In Preview, when I click "Get Info," the metadata fields have different values than the original Word document had.
Anyone know how I can edit the info in the pdf file? Even if I open the properties window through the Finder instead of Preview, I can still only view them, not edit them.
Thanks

It isn't actually Preview's fault - at least, I doubt it. I expect you would see the same in any viewer. It could be Word's fault or it could be Apple's underlying PDF creation software. Apple's distiller respects this data when created in other ways, though.
I didn't suggest the text editing option because it is a little hair-raising editing binary files in that way and I assumed you probably wanted a slightly more user-friendly option. I can see it working if your need is infrequent, though - especially since if anything does go wrong, you can always recreate the PDF from the Word source.
Good luck with it, anyway.

Hi Bastain,
Assuming your using the Batch Process Model, you can programatically insert a new SN into the correct parameter in the postUUT callback sequence.
This sequence has access to the UUT.SerialNumber parameter so you can use a File Global to pass the SN from the main sequence to the postUUT callback.
Here is an example of what I mean.

How does JVM set file.encoding system property?

The system property file.encoding is changed mysteriously, and we don't have a command line -D option. How does JRockit JVM get the default value for system properties such as file.encoding?
I am running Jrockit 1.4.2_12.
Thanks.

I am running WLS 8.1SP6 on Linux using Jrockit 1.4.2-12. Over the weekend, I bounced WL server, and file.encoding was changed. It used to be ISO-8859-1. Now it is ANSI_X3.4-1968. Neither System Administrator nor WebLogic (farm) Administrator changed anything. Although I can force it with -D, I'd like to figure out what happened.
Thanks.

How do I set file selection is JFileChooser?

Hi, I am using an instance of JFIleChooser to allow the user to choose files both for opening and saving. Here's my question.
I want to allow the user to SEE all file formats but only to OPEN or save in .odt or .sxw. I tried this by setting the FileFormat and by setting the ChoosableFileFormat, but they only set what is SEEN, not what can be OPENED or saved.
For instance, the user can type in *.* and that allows them to SEE everything, but I don't what that to allow them to OPEN everything.
Can someone please help me?
Thanks,
Daniel Lorimer

Override the approveSelection() method; only if you allow the user to select a file would you call super.approveSelection(). But why do you want to show the user files -- in a tool designed for selecting a file -- that they can't select?
