How to get the complete path of the file that is selected using FormFile

i m working on struts..
i hv used FormFile like
<html:file property="xsdpath" value="Browse" />
need to get the whole path that i will select using browse button
for example d:\foldername\filename.java
but FormFile Api has a method getFileName(); which returns the filename, for getting the absolute path wat has to be done.
please reply bak soon
thanks in advance

here i use formfile <html:file> just to allow the
user to select a xml file .
so i need to get the whole path of the selectedfile
to parse the xml file.No you dont.
You would definitely benefit from further reading on
file upload.
<html:file> tag renders an HTML <input> element of
type file.
When a user uploads a file, this file is sent as a
stream of data, which a program (jsp/servlet) on the
server, reads and stores the data back in the form
of a file on the server.
Any server program that needs to parse the file,
should do so on the file stored on the server.
There's no point in knowing the absolute path of the
file on the client machine. If a server program can
parse a file on the client machine, why upload the
file in first case ? Get the drift ?
i also want to show my user the path he hadselected.
If you have such a requirement, then yes.
But it sounds weird to me. If you see my response
above, you will realize that the server has a copy of
the client's file uploaded and then parsed. What if
the client has changed his file after upload ?
cheers,
ram.I also have a requirement to get the whole filepath of the file selected and place this information into a table. From FormFile I can only retreive the absolute filename
Any suggestions would be helpful.
Thanks, dam

How to get the file size (in bytes) for all files in a directory?

How to get the file size (in bytes) for all files in a directory?
The following code does not work. isFile() does NOT recognize files as files but only as directories. Why?
Furthermore the size is not retrieved correctly.
How do I have to code it otherwise? Is there a way of not converting f-to-string-to-File again but iterate over all file objects instead?
Thank you
Peter

[CS3][JS] How to get the file type of current document

Hi,
How to get the file type of current opening document (e.g., tif, jpeg, png) using JavaScript with Photoshop CS3.
I am using file object the open the files one by one in the folder (the files sometimes don't have the extensions).
If the current document is in tiff format then I need to convert to 8-bit, if its an Jpg image then needs to ignore the file.
Regards,
Karthik

Do you really need to know the file type? What about just checking the bit depth?
var doc = activeDocument;
if (doc.bitsPerChannel != BitsPerChannelType.EIGHT) {//Not 8 bit
doc.bitsPerChannel = BitsPerChannelType.EIGHT;
//do your save etc
}else{
//Ignore

No, your Yahoo account is not in iCloud (which only handles iCloud mail), it is in Yahoo, and the Yahoo mail account is on your iPad.
But the MacBook Pro will have none of it! I write this question now as I fear that I will be totally demented very soon and unable to formulate my thoughts clearly!
Get the correct settings for your account from Yahoo and set it up manually.
By the way, I also find the "password" issue problematical. It seems Apple want my Apple password rather than my eMail password. All very confusing.
That would depend on what you are trying to do.

Thank you, LatachaM_VZW
Are you talking about the PUK code (when the PIN for the SIM has been wrong too many times)? The OP is talking about network unlock, and is using a foreign SIM. Global Services certainly wouldn't have the unlock code for a SIM that isn't theirs.
I have heard that if you do enter the incorrect network unlock code too many times, the phone becomes permanently locked (i..e cannot be unlocked even with a valid unlock code) but not everyone agrees that this is true for all phones.
Jax's post above really says it all, you will need to search the web for a service that will unlock this Motorola phone. In doing so, you might find a number of threads that say the Global has to be activated in the US before an unlock code will work. Others were able to unlock without this.

How to find the file that delete from time capsule?

I mean I saved JPEG file in Time capsule and unfortunately delete the file. Can I get it back
IF.... .no other backups have occured since you deleted the file, you might be able to retrieve it using an application like Disk Warrior. It's about $100 as I recall, and there are no guarantees that it will work.
DiskWarrior 4 - The Disk Utility for Mac Disk Repair, Mac Directory ...
Any of the free or low priced utilities that you might see or try will not be able to retrieve a deleted file from a Time Capsule.
If any backups have occured since you deleted the file, the deleted file has almost certainly been overwritten. No way to retrieve it in that case.

Cannot install Mavks. Get the message that HD is used for Time Machine B/U. Not true. Also Time Machine is turned off. Running OS 10.8.5.

That message appears when there's a "Backups.backupdb" folder in the root level of the OS X volume. This folder is used by Time Machine to store backups, being this the reason why the OS X Mavericks installer detects the OS X partition as used by Time Machine.
To delete it, open a Finder window, select the Go menu (on the menu bar) > Go to Folder, and type:
Then, delete "Backups.backupdb" and empty the Trash. Finally, open the OS X Mavericks installer in /Applications and follow the steps. Make sure you have got a backup of your files before upgrading and check that your apps are compatible > http://www.roaringapps.com

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
