How to get the 64-bit application path?

I was just working with the builtin Get System Directory function on a 64-bit machine running Windows 7 and noticed that the Application File path selection always returns the path to 32 bit programs directory (i.e. c:\Program Files (x86)).
First, is this because I'm running 32 bit LV or am I missing something.
Second, if I wanted the 64-bit program directory, is it safe to just trim off the " (x86)" part. I have never seen a system where that wouldn't have worked, but kinowing Windows there could be some strange configuration where it would break.

It appears to be an issue with emulation from what I quickly read online about it. You can however get this information from the registry.
The location in registry:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion
You are interested in the string value:
ProgramFilesDir

How to get the local file system path of an image that loaded into the image component in cq5?

Hi,
I'm having hard time uploading image from filesystem where as drag and drop works.
I'm not getting a path of image selected from filesystem.
here is my code..
private String populateImage() throws Exception {
                    if (currentNode != null && currentNode.isNode()) {
                                   Node ImageNode = JcrResourceUtil.createPath(currentNode, "image",
                                                                      null, "nt:unstructured", true);
                                   imageUrl = ImageNode.hasProperty("fileReference") ? ImageNode.getProperty("fileReference").getValue().getString() : "";
       imageUrl = imageUrl.trim();
        log.info("MANAGE PROFILE BEAN IMAGE URL INSIDE IF IS: " + imageUrl);
                    } else {
                                        imageUrl = properties.get("fileReference", "");
                                        imageUrl = imageUrl.trim();
                                        log.info("MANAGE PROFILE BEAN IMAGE URL INSIDE ELSE IS: " + imageUrl);
                    return imageUrl;
So if I drag and drop..
ImageNode.hasProperty("fileReference") is returning a valid path
but if I upload an image it is returning Null.
So how to get the path? any suggestions around would be appreciated...

When you say path you mean you want the path to print out in your HTML? Is that accurate? If so you generally need to constructe that path based on the path to the current component. So if you component is located at /content/mysite/en/about/mypage/jcr:content/parsys/image then the path to the image would generally be something like /content/mysite/en/about/mypage/jcr:content/parsys/image.img.jpg/1283829292873.jpg. The .img. selector triggers the servlet associated with the foundation parbase - /libs/foundation/components/parbase/img.GET.java. The reason you reference it this way is that there is no filesystem path to the image - it is stored in the repository not on the file system, and it requires a servlet or script to ge the binary from the repository and steam it.
Normally the way you'd construct this is to use the out of the box Image class - so look at /libs/foundation/components/image/image.jsp. Now this example assumes that your component where you loaded the image extends /libs/foundation/components/parbase. If it doesn't then you either have to change your sling:superResourceType to /libs/foundation/components/parbase or some other component that does exten /libs/foundation/components/parbase.

NSImageView - How to get the image file's path?

I'm working on an image uploader application, and am having difficulties getting the info I want from an editable NSImageView. Basically I have an NSImageView object which the user can drag an image file to display a preview and add to the list of images to be uploaded. The image is loaded into the NSImageView just fine, however for my purposes I need access to the actual file path of the image.
The NSImageView target function is activated when an image file is dragged onto the view, however at that point an NSImage is provided and I have yet to figure out how to get access to the file name. Anyone have any suggestions regarding this?

This may be helpful.

How to get the properties of application anywhere in the project?

Hello,
Application
     |__Component1
               |___Component2
                             |___Component3 -----> Component4 ( as Popup)
this is the actal scenario in my flex application..
Do you know any best way to access the properties on the Application Object ??
i want to set the popup component in the middle of the browser screen..
for that i have tried the way...
- Component 4

<s:Group xmlns:fx="http://ns.adobe.com/mxml/2009"
                xmlns:s="library://ns.adobe.com/flex/spark"
                xmlns:mx="library://ns.adobe.com/flex/mx">
     <s:layout>
          <s:VerticalLayout horizontalAlign="center" verticalAlign="middle"/>
     </s:layout>
     <s:BorderContainer id="bcPopupWindow" width="700" height="500" backgroundAlpha="0.8" borderAlpha="0.5"
                       borderVisible="true" cornerRadius="20" dropShadowVisible="true">
==     Some designing part   ==
     </s:BorderContainer>
</s:Group>
and for showing this
in Component 3 -
protected function btnShowPopup_clickHandler(event:MouseEvent):void
     myPopup= new PopupWindow();
     myPopup.width = this.parent.parent.parent.width;
     myPopup.height =this.parent.parent.parent.height;
     PopUpManager.addPopUp(myPopup,this,true);

hi
try changing this line:
PopUpManager.addPopUp(myPopup,this,true); //adds popup to current object
to this:
PopUpManager.addPopUp(myPopup, root, true); //adds popup to top level object
it should fix the popup not centering properly - it is centering itself, but with respect to the current visual object (where your open popup code is). changing to root will add the popup to the top level and so centering it there will center it with respect to the application itself.
also, add this line below the one above:
trace(FlexGlobals.topLevelApplication.width);
and see what it traces out (in debug mode) - is it giving the correct value?

How to get the full path or name of the Layer to which Filter is applied?

Hi All,
I have created a layer using some background image as source. How to get the name or ful path of the background image?
I checked the documentation and found GetPathNameProc(SPPlatformFileSpecification*) function, but I couldn't get the parameter SPPlatformFileSpecification*.
Is there any other way to get the file path of background layer in my custom filter?
Thanks,
Dheeraj

If this is a client side application then I'd say look into drag-n-drop tutorials.
i.e. drag file to your application, action listener fires, create File object giving you full name and path of users action.
If this is a web application then look into the "multipart/form-data" content type specifications on how to upload files.
i.e. user specifies file from <input type='file' ... /> type, submits, servlet receives data and recreates file locally on application server side.
If you are thinking that all you need to send a file to a program is the full path and name in a textbox its a little bit more complicated then that.
Good luck, hope that helps!

Get the directory where application files exist.....

Hi ,
How to get the directory where application files exist....????
I have found a way....such as:
Right - click on the application name ... on the pop-up menu... select "Add to <application_name>" and then on the window appeared... i get the dir on the title of this window....
Is there any simpler method to obtain the dir...????
NOTE: I use JDev 10.1.3. on windows XP platform...
Many thanks ,

hi Simon
If you not only want to see the path, but also want to copy-and-paste it, you can use the "Edit > Copy Path" (Ctrl+Shift-C) menu item.

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.

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 enclosing folder of an Application?

Ok. re-visiting my Applescript to compare installed apps versus a list of predefined apps... here is my test code so far:
set appsPath to (path to applications folder)
tell application "Finder"
set appList to name of every application file of entire contents of folder appsPath
end tell
set theApps to {"iMovie.app", "Microsoft Excel", "Microsoft Excel.app", "Adobe Acrobat 7.0 Professional.app", "Adobe After Effects CS4.app", "ColorEyes Display Pro.app", "Corel Painter X.app", "DiskTracker 2.3.2", "EPSON Scan.app", "Flash 8.app", "Product Ingest.app", "Product Tag.app", "Art Ingest.app", "TextWrangler.app", "Toast Titanium.app", "Suitcase Fusion 2.app", "Suitcase Fusion 3.app", "Fetch.app"}
repeat with anApp in theApps
set vers to version of (application anApp)
-- get parent path of anApp!!!!
if (parentFolder is equal to "Applications" or parentFolder is equal to "Utilities") then
set parentFolder to ""
end if
display alert anApp & ": Version: " & vers & " " & parentFolder
end repeat
The only thing I'm stuck on is how to get the parent folder of anApp. Basically we use several versions of software here that are not easily identifiable by the version attribute. However their enclosing folder has all the versioning info I need (e.g.: MS Excel 04's vers would be 110113, but the enclosing folder is "Microsoft Office 2004", and some departments get Office 2008, Office 2011, etc., so I need a human-friendly way to get the right versions)
I don't know if the "if" statement to check whether the parent is Applications or Utilities is correct as I haven't gotten that far in testing. I'm only interested in getting the parent of apps that have parent folder that is a sub-folder of Applications or Utilities.
Basically what I am trying to do here is write a text file containing all departmental apps, homefolder sizes, relevant partition sizes, etc. and spit it out at the tech responsible for migrating a user to a new mac (display alert is just convenient for testing purposes). In the past we've had too many "missed" items in QC like wrong apps installed, or wrong versions, or data not copied over properly, etc. So this way they can run this on the old system beforehand and the new system after, line everything up and check off if it matches. This is just a snippet...
TIA!

Is there a way to invoke these without the script opening each one?
You must use the bundle identifier instead of the name
Here a example :
set theApps to {"com.microsoft.excel", "com.adobe.Acrobat.Pro", "com.barebones.textwrangler", "com.roxio.Toast", "com.fetchsoftworks.Fetch"}
repeat with anApp in theApps
       tell application "Finder" to tell (application file id anApp)

How to get the absolute path of logicalhost server domain on Windows?

My logicalhost server domain behaves strangely. I am reading a file from collaboration definiton, that is located in the logicalhost/is/domains/domain1/config folder. I thought, that this folder is used as an application root folder so I can read files like ./file from there. And it worked.
But then I've installed the domain as a Windows service, restarted the PC. When the domain1 gets started, I get exceptions saying that the file can't be found. Then I restart the domain (in domainmgr.bat) and it works again.
I am pretty sure that using the absolute path will solve this issue, so my first question is: How to get the absolute path of logicalhost server domain on Windows?
And my second question is: Why does this happen?

The default folder for a Windows Service is the system32 folder contrary to the instance root folder when starting it as a normal process.
That's the why, haven't tried the how, but you should be able to get the value by calling System.getProperty("com.sun.aas.instanceRoot").
Hope this helps

How to get the pull path name from a file upload window

Hello everyone!
I have encountered the following problem with the following JSP code:
<form method="post" action="filename.jsp">
Upload JAVA program:
<input type=file size=20 name="fname" accept="java">
<input type=submit value="go">
</form>
<%
String s = "";
if (request.getParameter("fname") != null)
s = request.getParameter("fname")
%>
The value of s is alway the filename. However I want to get the full path in addition to the filename, so that I can read the file. Does anyone know how to get the pull name of the file?
thanks a lot in advance,

Dear Sir,
thanks a lot for your reply. Please let me explain what I intended to do: I want to upload a file from the local machine and then read the content of the file. Therefore I need to the fullpath of the filename like /var/local/file.java instead of file.java. The latter is what I got.
The problem I have with your code is that the function like "request.getServerScheme()" is not recognized. Maybe is it because I didn't install servelet package? I only installed javax package btw. Also my application runns on Tomcat server if this could give you some information. The error message I had is as follows:
