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

How to get folder(directory path only not file path) from local file system

Hi Firends,
How to get folder(directory path only not file path) from local file system , whenevr i will click on browse button.
Please give reply for this one , if anybody knows.
Thanks,
Anderson.

Hi Anderson,
if you're using flash.filesystem.FileReference - then it is run in black box - except of filename, size and creation data (and few other properties available after some operation succeeded). This is part of security features in Flash runtime (described in header section):
http://help.adobe.com/en_US/FlashPlatform/reference/actionscript/3/flash/net/FileReference .html
This for example implies that user can download a content to local machine - but that content cannot be loaded back into Flash runtime. For this you would need either Air runtime flash.filesystem.File:
http://help.adobe.com/en_US/FlashPlatform/reference/actionscript/3/flash/filesystem/File.h tml
(so you would created Air runtime based application: desktop or mobile but not web, even as standalone project) or you would need one of 3rd party tools that add file access/file information features to standard Flash runtime applications converted to standalone native applications.
hth,
kind regards,
Peter

Get Domain directory path in weblogic server 10gR3

Hi all,
Does anyone know how to get the directory path of to a domin in WLS 10gR3 using JMX?
Basically, I am trying to create a timer in WLI manually using Java code but for that to work, I
need to know the domain directory path as below.
BTW, I know it can be created in WLST with ease... but I want to try using Java code
import com.bea.wli.mbconnector.timer.TimerConnGenerator;
public class WLITimerTest {
public static void main(String args[]) {
String domainDir = <path of domain>; // e.g. C:\bea103\user_projects\domains\mydomain
String domainDir = "C:/bea103/user_projects/domains/esis_domain";
try {
TimerConnGenerator.main(new String[] {"-inName", "timerName", "-outfile",
domainDir +"/WLITimerEG_" + "timerName" + ".jar"});
} catch (Exception e) {
e.printStackTrace();
Thanks
Sam

Just to answer my own question. It's System.getenv('DOMAIN_HOME') where DOMAIN_HOME is set in setDomainEnv.cmd of your domain.

How to get absolute path of a form within the Forms

Aslam o Alikum (Hi)
How to get absolute path of a form within the Forms 6i or 9i
For example
i am running a from "abc.fmx" from C:\myfolder directory
can i get the form path 'C:\myfolder' by calling any any function from "abc.fmb"

There is no direct call that will always work. What you need to do is call get_application_property(current_form). This may have the full path in it, depending on if that path was defined when the form was launched. If there is no path, then you need to use TOOL_ENV.GETVAR to read the Forms<nn>PATH and the ORACLEPATH, parse those out into individual directories and then check for the FMX in each.
I already have some code to do all this for you see:

Sharepoint Workflow : how to get document full path + file name into variable?

Hi,
Anybody knows how to get document full path + file name into a variable in Sharepoint 2010 workflow?
Example http://sp1:80/InvoiceQueue/Shared Documents/123.pdf
I am using List Workflow which links to a document library.

Hi SAMSUNG,
According to your description, my understanding is that you want to get the full path of a document in a list workflow.
You can set the variable to the Enconded Absolute URL of the document. The screenshot is my testing. In my testing (in the red area), when the title of a document was equal to the tile of the current item, set a variable to the Enconded Absolute URL of the
document. I used ‘Log to history list’ to check the value of the variable in Workflow History .
I hope this helps.
Thanks,

How to get the application path?

Does some body know how to get the application path in Java? Here is an example about what I'm thinking: Let's imagin the application is on "c:\try" or "c:\ProgramFiles\MyApp". My question is how can I find the path where the application is. Please give an example if you know the answer. Thank you so much.

Those two replies give you some useful directories, it's true, but maybe not what the OP asked. However the OP asked for something that doesn't have a meaning (applications don't have to be "on" any directory, whatever that might mean).
Would the OP like to describe what the actual problem is here?

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 to get the full path instead of just the file name, in �FileChooser� ?

In the FileChooserDemo example :
In the statement : log.append("Saving: " + file.getName() + "." + newline);
�file.getName()� returns the �file name�.
My question is : How to get the full path instead of just the file name,
e.g. C:/xdirectory/ydirectory/abc.gif instead of just abc.gif
import java.io.*;
import java.awt.*;
import java.awt.event.*;
import javax.swing.*;
import javax.swing.filechooser.*;
public class FileChooserDemo extends JFrame {
static private final String newline = "\n";
public FileChooserDemo() {
super("FileChooserDemo");
//Create the log first, because the action listeners
//need to refer to it.
final JTextArea log = new JTextArea(5,20);
log.setMargin(new Insets(5,5,5,5));
log.setEditable(false);
JScrollPane logScrollPane = new JScrollPane(log);
//Create a file chooser
final JFileChooser fc = new JFileChooser();
//Create the open button
ImageIcon openIcon = new ImageIcon("images/open.gif");
JButton openButton = new JButton("Open a File...", openIcon);
openButton.addActionListener(new ActionListener() {
public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent e) {
int returnVal = fc.showOpenDialog(FileChooserDemo.this);
if (returnVal == JFileChooser.APPROVE_OPTION) {
File file = fc.getSelectedFile();
//this is where a real application would open the file.
log.append("Opening: " + file.getName() + "." + newline);
} else {
log.append("Open command cancelled by user." + newline);
//Create the save button
ImageIcon saveIcon = new ImageIcon("images/save.gif");
JButton saveButton = new JButton("Save a File...", saveIcon);
saveButton.addActionListener(new ActionListener() {
public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent e) {
int returnVal = fc.showSaveDialog(FileChooserDemo.this);
if (returnVal == JFileChooser.APPROVE_OPTION) {
File file = fc.getSelectedFile();
//this is where a real application would save the file.
log.append("Saving: " + file.getName() + "." + newline);
} else {
log.append("Save command cancelled by user." + newline);
//For layout purposes, put the buttons in a separate panel
JPanel buttonPanel = new JPanel();
buttonPanel.add(openButton);
buttonPanel.add(saveButton);
//Explicitly set the focus sequence.
openButton.setNextFocusableComponent(saveButton);
saveButton.setNextFocusableComponent(openButton);
//Add the buttons and the log to the frame
Container contentPane = getContentPane();
contentPane.add(buttonPanel, BorderLayout.NORTH);
contentPane.add(logScrollPane, BorderLayout.CENTER);

JFrame frame = new FileChooserDemo();
frame.addWindowListener(new WindowAdapter() {
public void windowClosing(WindowEvent e) {
System.exit(0);
frame.pack();

simply use file.getPath()
That should do it!Thank you !
It takes care of the problem !!

How to get KD Folder path

Hi,
How to get the full path for a given folder ID in KD ?
I am using Java IDK 5.3
Looking for a method like this:
String fullPath = getFolderPath(200);
Thanks.

Besides, the HTML input type="file" lets the client choose a file to upload and it only sends the file contents along the request body from the client to the server. I have reread your question over three times, but I really, really don't see any relation between that HTML code line and your actual problem. Aren't you confusing the client-server relation and the concepts behind it?
At least I can tell you that you can't get the folder path in the server side (as asked in the topic subject), although some browsers (e.g. IE) will do this, but this is faulty and you shouldn't rely on this. Just obtain the file contents from the request body. There are parsers for this as well, such as Apache Commons FileUpload.

How to get the project path ?

In my servlet, how do I get the project path ?
I have the following dir structure :
Web_App
+ build
    lib
+ nbproject
+ src
    test
+ web ( index.jsp , my.jsp , my.html )
    + Dir_Docs ( my file : ABC.txt ) My Servlet is :
public class My_Servlet extends HttpServlet
public void init(ServletConfig config) throws ServletException
    super.init(config);
public void destroy() { }
protected void processRequest(HttpServletRequest request,HttpServletResponse response) throws ServletException,IOException
    response.setContentType("text/html");
    PrintWriter out=response.getWriter();
    out.println(System.getProperty("user.dir"));
}What I got was : C:/apache-tomcat-6.0.14/bin/
How to get the project path ? Which is : C:/Web_App/ ?

Yes, config.getServletContext().getRealPath("index.jsp"); got the job done !
Thanks.
