How to get attribute from select

Hello
I have a problem getting the value from my select-field from my form in my servlet.
I can get the values from the textareas and the textfileds but not from my select. If i mail the same form i get the selected value, but not when i try to get this in my servlet.
To get the other values i use:
String subcategory = (String) request.getAttribute("subcategory");
Is there any other way to get the values from select (or radiobuttons) ?

don't you think you should use request.getParameter("XXX")?
And if your can select multiple items , then use request.getParameters("SSS"). Note that this method return arrray of String.

How to get filename from selected directory

Helle experts,
I've a string variable from a directory with following content:
G:\SAP_R3_MRSS\SAP_MRS\FAVORIT.PDF
now I just want to select the filename, in this case FAVORIT.TXT
How can I do this ? The directory/filename may vary.
Some ideas ?
Thanks
Gerd

Eric's split is probably the best way, but if you need a way to break the path into drive, path, and file, you could use a standard, well-used regular expression:
PROGRAM zzfile.
DATA:
   g_regex     TYPE string VALUE '\b((?#drive)[a-z]):\\((?#folder)[^/:*?"<>|\r\n]*\\)?((?#file)[^\\/:*?"<>|\r\n]*)',
   g_path_file TYPE string VALUE 'G:\SAP_R3_MRSS\SAP_MRS\FAVORIT.PDF',
   g_drive     TYPE string,
   g_path      TYPE string,
   g_file      TYPE string.
FIND FIRST OCCURRENCE OF REGEX g_regex IN g_path_file SUBMATCHES g_drive g_path g_file IGNORING CASE.
IF sy-subrc = 0.
* WRITE g_drive.
* WRITE g_path.
WRITE g_file.
ENDIF.

How to get fieldnames from Select * query ?

How can I get the fieldnames returned with a SELECT * query ?
When I use GetFieldName or GetFieldOriginalName I only get fieldnames of "*".

You should use the fields collection, in the OraDynaset object.
All you need to do is :
for i = 0 to Recordset.Fields.Count -1
debug.print Recordset.Fields(i).name
debug.print Recordset.Fields(i).OriginalName 'this will print the field's name before an alias
next i

How-to get attributes from one JSF page redirected to another?

How do I send information from one JSF page when the navigation rule redirects it to another?
When JSF navigation does a forward I can use request.setAttribute() in the from-page and then use request.getAttribute() in the to-page, but this doesn't work with <redirect/>.

Hi,
How to get attribute value from standard page ?
String str = (String)vo.getCurrentRow().getAttrbute("RunId");
But this value is returning a null value ....
Can anyone help me to get this attribute value which is actually having a actual value .

getCurrentRow() would always return null if no setCurrentRow() is used.

How to get the default selection color from JTable

Hi, there,
I have a question for how to get the default selection color from JTable. I am currently implementing the customized table cell renderer, but I do want to set the selection color in the table exactly the same of default table cell renderer. The JTable.getSelectionBackgroup() did not works for me, it returned dark blue which made the text in the table unreadable. Anyone know how to get the window's default selection color?
Thanks,
-Jenny

The windows default selection color is dark blue. Try selecting any text on this page. The difference is that the text gets changed to a white font so you can actually see the text.
If you don't like the default colors that Java uses then use the UIManager to change the defaults. The following program shows all the properties controlled by the UIManager:
http://www.discoverteenergy.com/files/ShowUIDefaults.java
Any of the properties can be changed for the entire application by using:
UIManager.put( "propertyName", value );

How to get file from server while click on link

Hi,
i created on link and i gave one server path to select file from server but while clickinng on link it no displaying any thing.
following is the Destination url that i gave for the item.
/u08/app/appvis/xxex/inst/xxex_apps/xxrbe/logs/appl/conc/log/
please tell me how to get file from server while click on link.

Ok I got your requirement now.
If you are getting file names from view attribute then you should not be adding destination URI property for the link.
Instead you can use OADataBoundValueViewObject API.
Try below code in your controller processRequest method:
I am assuming that you are using classic table.
Also in below example it considers OAMessageStyleText and you can replace it with link item if you want.
OATableBean tableBean =
(OATableBean)webBean.findChildRecursive("<table item id>");
OAMessageStyledTextBean m= (OAMessageStyledTextBean)tableBean.findChildRecursive("<message styled text in table item id>");
OADataBoundValueViewObject tip1 = new OADataBoundValueViewObject(m, "/u08/app/appvis/xxex/inst/xxex_apps/xxrbe/logs/appl/conc/log/"+"<vo attr name which stores file name for each row>");
m.setAttributeValue(oracle.cabo.ui.UIConstants.DESTINATION_ATTR, tip1);

Get ID from selected row in data table

Hi!
Does someone know how to get ID from row on which I click a button or link?
getRowData() doesnt work!
Or any other method in jsp or just something to get the ID from selected row?
Thanks!!!

Hi,
I have a table with 3 columns, where column 1 represents the key, column 2 represents the data and column 3 displays the "details"-button. If you use
String key =(String)outputText1.getValue();
the variable key contains the key value of the row of the column in which the "details"-button was clicked. (outputText1 is the Output Text field of the first column).
Problem with this is that the key Value must be displayed in the table but maybe it works if the OutputText Field is not rendered, too. If anyone has another (maybe nicer) solution for the problem i would be pleased to see it here.
