How to determine the maximum allowable length of a filename for Window ?

Hi all,
Could I know how to determine the allowable file length (the length of the absolute path) for a file in Window environment?
Due to some reason, I generated a zip file with a very long filename ( > 170) and put in a folder(the length of the folder path around 90). The length of the absolute path is around 260.
I used FileOutputStream with the ZipOutputStream to write out the zip file. Everything is working fine while i generating the zip file.
However, while i try to extract some files from the zip file i just created, i encountered the error
java.util.zip.ZipException The filename is too long.
I am using the class ZipFile to extract the files from the zip file like the following
String absPath = "A very long filepath which exceed 260";
ZipFile zipF = new ZipFile(absPath); //<-- here is the root causeIs it possible to pre-determine the maximum allowable filepath length prior i generate the zip file ? This is weird since i got no error while i created the zip file, but have problem in extracting the zip file ......
Thanks

Assuming you could determine the max, what would you do about it? I'd say you should just assume it will be successful, but accommodate (handle) the possible exception gracefully. Either way you're going to have to handle it as an "exception", whether you "catch" an actual "Exception" object and deal with that, or manually deal with the length exceeding the max.

How to determine the maximum prefix of two CharSequences efficiently?

I have the following problem. I need a unicode friendly mechanism for determining the maximum prefix of 2 CharacterSequences. I've come up with the following code which appears to do the job, but which requires up to ([number of codepoints in smaller sequence] * 2) + 1 memory allocations. These memory allocations are rather irksome since I plan on calling this method extremely many times. The code I came up with looks like:
private static int getLengthOfMaxCommonPrefix(CharSequence str1, CharSequence str2, Collator collator) {
    if ((str1 == null) || (str2 == null)) { return 0; }
    if (Character.codePointCount(str1, 0, str1.length()) > Character.codePointCount(str2, 0, str2.length())) {
      CharSequence tmp = str1;
      str1 = str2;
      str2 = tmp;
    // @todo get rid of memory allocation
    char[] charArray = new char[4];
    int i = 0;
    for (int size = Character.codePointCount(str1, 0, str1.length()); i < size; i++) {
      Character.toChars(Character.codePointAt(str1, i), charArray, 0);
      Character.toChars(Character.codePointAt(str2, i), charArray, 2);
       // @todo get rid of memory allocation
      String char1Str = new String(charArray, 0, 2);
      // @todo get rid of memory allocation
      String char2Str = new String(charArray, 2, 2);
      if (collator.compare(char1Str, char2Str) != 0) {
        return i;
    return i;
}Am I overlooking an API that would allow me have this same functionality without memory allocations? If not, would it be reasonable to request that the Java Collator API be updated to have:
Collator.compare(int codepoint1, int codepoint2)which would eliminate the need for these memory allocations. The only reason I would suggest this change is that more than a few pieces of my other code involving unicode has the same problem. Also, when looking over the API it seems that
static Character.toString(char c)exists, but the following method doesn't:
static Character.toString(int codepoint)which would at least minimize some of the ugliness in the above code and be in keeping with the other APIs under Character.

But still, surely just walking character by character through the strings and comparing them (using your collator) will do?
    char[] c1 = new char[1];
    char[] c2 = new char[1];
    // swap longest/shortest string, etc.
    // for each char {
        c1[0] = cs1.charAt(n);
        c2[0] = cs2.charAt(n);
        s1 = new String(c1);
        s2 = new String(c2);
        // use collator to compare
    // }The only thing I don't know is whether there are collators which look at sequences of characters. For example, I think in Unicode, you can have an 'a' followed by a 'add an accent to the previous character' character, which would obviously impact on the collation order.
In which case, something like
    // for n = 1 .. length of shortest {
        int result = collator.compare(cs1.subSequence(0, n).toString(), cs2.subSequence(0, n).toString());
        if (result != 0) {
            return result;
    // equal to length of shortest string. Make decision based on length.This might be efficient, or not, depending on the implementation of CharSequence. String, for example, has a very efficient subSequence() method.

How to determine the maximum size of JFrame?

I am using JDK1.2 to develop an application. I have
a problem to handle the maximum size of of JFrame.
If the user clicks the maximum icon or double-clicks
the title bar from the JFrame, the JFrame becomes
maximum. How can I determine the state of maximization? I need to bring different views if the
JFrame is maximum or minimum. I knew JDK1.4 can
handle this problem. Or using JNI, either. Does
anyone know other ways to handle this?
Thanks,
Peter

So that you won't have to wait forever:
Sorry, pal, the only way is JNI. I researched this earlier for 1.2, but can't find it right now in the database. They finally added it to 1.4.
Good luck.

How can install the Fractal Image plug-in into Firefox for Windows 7?

I have the plug-in necessary to view fractal images built with the now no longer Iterated Systems program "Fractal Imager." These are files with the .fif extension and the plug-in is needed to view them. The plug in I have is fully functional. The problem I am having is that I needed instructions on how to upload this plug-in into Firefox for Windows.

There has been a change in where Firefox searches for plugins and the plugins folder in the Firefox program folder is no longer scanned for plugins, so Firefox won't find them anymore if they are installed in the plugins folder instead of the "browser\plugins" folder that Firefox now scans.
You can set the plugins.load_appdir_plugins pref to true on the about:config page to make Firefox scan the "<install>/plugins/" directory for plugins like the WMP plugin (np-mswmp.dll).
You can alternatively move plugins from "<install directory>\plugins\" to "<install directory>\browser\plugins\" (create this folder when missing) to make Firefox find them again.

How to determine the maximum temperature in a consecutive of 2 minutes?

I am doing the following application:
1) Temperature signal is read in every 1 second, define in a while loop;
2) I want to make sure that in a consecutive of 2 minutes, temperature value is always lower than a value, say 10 degree C;
3) If it can meet the criterion, returns true, otherwise continue monitoring until it is true.
A possible way it to define an 1D array with 120 elements, but I would like to know if there is a more elegant way? I cannot put the array in a subVI, as it is destroyed once subVI is left. LabVIEW system provides "RMS" calculation function (everything is in a sub VI) and I do not the function used in that VI.
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Ah!! so thats what you meant, ok.
You can easily implement this as a subvi:
This is what the subvi would look like. You would use a while loop that only iterates once with an un-initialised shift register. This will then store the last value in its shift register.
This is how it would look on your main vi:
In this version you do not need to wire the time limit, its default value is 120. If you ever want to change this though you can wire in a new value.

I need more than the maximum allowed 30 profiles - how do I change this?

I need more than the maximum allowed 30 profiles - how do I change this? Once I reach 30 profiles and I try to add one - it just deletes one automatically thus only allowing a maximum of 30. Please help.

You are talking about 30 Firefox Profiles on the same Windows Logon User Account?
I never saw that as a limit myself. I had 53 Profiles at one time, although I haven't done that since Firefox 3.0. It was causing an extended launch time and I started using "remote" Profiles that weren't controlled by the Profile Manager and weren't in the '''profiles.ini''' file; launched by command line. Like this in the Target line for the desktop shortcut: <br />
''' "C:\Program Files\Firefox_4.0_zip\firefox.exe" -Profile D:\Mozilla\Active-Profiles\4.0_10-15-10-N '''

How to determine the ROWNUM in a Master Detail Form

Hello,
I am working in a Master Detail Form with Orders and Order Items Information; and I created a process that allows the users to select a Product ID on a tabular form, and the next column is populated automatically with the Product Description.
To achieve that, I followed some instructions by Denes Kubicek (http://apex.oracle.com/pls/otn/f?p=31517:241), but my case is slightly different:
<ul>I am using a wizard-created tabular form, instead of a manual tabular form; and </ul>
<ul>Instead of using another page as a Popup to pass the parameter of the ROWNUM, I am using a plug-in called “Tabular Form Super LOV” which is a modified version of the SkillBuilders’ Super LOV that works on Tabular Forms. </ul>
The Product ID is returned in the correct row by the plug-in; but in the case of the Product Description, it is always returned into the first row; and my problem is that I don't know how to determine the row where the user clicked to call the plug-in.
I set up an example in apex.oracle.com in case someone would like to look at it:
Workspace: ediazjorge
Username: test
Password: test
App Name: Sample App
App Number: 1550
BTW, I am using Apex 4.1.1.00.23 and Oracle DB 10.3.2.
Thanks in advance,
Erick

Hello VC,
Thank you for your time and help.
Unfortunately, it is still not working properly:
1. When the Popup LOV opens, the first row of the tabular form is 0, the second row is 1, and so on. How can I assign the values starting with 1 and in the format *0001* ? (I am still a novice on Apex and new to JavaScript :-), sorry about that).
--2. Also, when I close the Popup LOV, the value of P1_ROWNUM is ‘undefined’ again so I'm not sure if the Product Name column will be populated.--
3. And finally, you are using the jQuery Selector uPopupLOVIcon, which is an attribute of the Cloudy Theme. In my real application (Apex 4.1.1.00.26), my element looks like: *<img src="/i/lov_16x16.gif" width="16" height="16" alt="Popup Lov" alt="List" style="vertical-align:middle;" align="middle" />*. What do you recommend me to use as a jQuery Selector?
Again, I really appreciate your help and time. I think you solved the most difficult part.
Thank you so much,
Erick
Update: I just found out that the problem with my comment 2 is because I didn’t delete the previous dynamic action that set the value to P1_ROWNUM.

How can determine the duration of an audio file

Hi,
i'm making speech recognition project using java. i can capture sound by michrophone and playback it. the type of the sound is .wav.
my question is how to determine the recording duration (for example: determine the duration for 0.25 second) because i must recorded syllable,the assumtion is needed less than 0.5 second to say a word. and then.. can this wav file be changed into... binary or integer ?
thanks for your help

FYI I'm newbie in Java,
Yes, I want to limit the audio file lengths to a certain value. What should I do?
I have read wav file using an AudioInputStream, for audio format I'm using sampleRate = 8000.0F and sampleSizeInBits = 8. My friend said if I used 8 bit for sampleSizeInBit (resolution in amplitude) the binary file should be -128 till 127 in range according to the bit. I try this code and the result is binary file which is zero, positive, and negative.
the code
try{
audioInputStream.read(audioBytes);
for (int i=0; i<audioBytes.length;i++){
System.out.println(audioBytes);
catch(IOException ioe){
System.out.println("Error"+ioe);
I'm not sure that the code is right, but it works. Should I change the audioBytes into integer before? I try this code but it doesn't work.
int a = new int[audioBytes.length];
for (int i=0;i<audioBytes.length;i++){
a[i] = new Byte(audioBytes[i]).intValue();
this binary file has been printed in console (Im using texpad). So, how I can write that to file.txt? I'm using FileoutputStream but it doesn't work correctly. Here is the code
FileOutputStream fos = new FileOutputStream(strFilePath);
{audioInputStream.read(audioBytes);
fos.write(audioBytes);
catch (IOException ioe){
System.out.println("Error"+ioe);
When I open file .txt is read as character like this üüüüüüüüüüüüûüüüûüûûû ||||||| ||||||| ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||| ےےےےےےےےےےےے (like using alt plus number)

Insufficient rights - How to determine the correct rights?

All,
Does anyone know how to determine the correct rights if you get the error message "Insufficient rights for operation"?
In SAP backend systems you can start transaction SU53 to check your "missing" authorizations, but is something like that also possible in MDM?
I also don't see any detailed information in the logs or reports.
If anyone has an good suggestion, please let me know, since I don't want to do "trail and error" to know what Functions to set to Execute and what Tables/Fields to set to Read/Write (because there are quite some combinations to check).
p.s. I've read the complete reference guide of the MDM console and sometimes it's really obvious what Functions and Tables/Fields you have to set, but for instance when I want to give authorization to maintain Relationships in the DataManager and have set the Main table and all Relationships to Read/Write and have set all Records and DataManager functions to Execute it still doesn't allow me to maintain the relationships on the records! I only get the message "insufficient rights" and it's unclear what rights are missing!
Regards,
Marcel

hi Marcel,
I doubt if we have anything in MDM to show you what authorizations are missing.However,you can check the following :
1. What activity are you trying to perform when you get this error.
2. Check if authorization are given in the role for that actitvity.
3. Check how many roles are allocated to user and Is authorization given in all roles if more than 1 role is assigned to that user?
Please let us know answer of the queries...
Regards,
Vineet
