How to get the name of the file parent

Hi,
i have a file in this location
File file = new File(MyFile.doc)
file.getParent(); returns
C:\Documents and Settings\Administrator\xyz
now from the string obtained i just want to get the value "xyz".i.e. i want to get the name of the parent directory.
how is it possible

You may use String.indexOf()if(file.getParent().indexOf("/myProject/myPackage") != -1) {
    ...Or you might use regular expressions and Matcher class (or String.matches()) in case of higher complexity.

  • How to get domain name for the userId?

    There is a generic way to get userID
    System.getProperty( "user.name" ).
    In case of windows it's a name you login in.
    Is any way in Java to figure out domain name of that particular user by Java code?
    Igor

    You can dojava.net.InetAddress.getLocalHost().getHostName()to get the name of the computer. But this will not give you the "domain name of the user". In Windows, for example, when I sign on to my computer, that user name only means something to my computer. There's no "domain", in the Internet sense, involved.

  • How to get a name of the current marker?

    I have two director files with same identical marker names (2
    language versions). How I can make a button that changes the
    language (goes to the same marker of the other file). Something
    like... go to "current marker name here" of movie
    "language_2".

    ok, now the really cool method. You can get any marker name
    whether it's
    above the current frame or not.
    mkrName = (the markerList)[(marker (0)).string]
    will give you the marker above the current frame or the first
    marker to the
    left of the current frame if there is no marker above the
    current frame.
    Similarly,
    mkrName = (the markerList)[(marker (1)).string]
    will give you the first marker to the right of the current
    frame whether
    there is a marker above the current frame or not. You can see
    how you can
    get the name of any marker just by changing the parameter of
    the marker ()
    function.
    If you're worried that the first example doesn't tell you
    whether the marker
    is above or behind the current frame a simple test will do.
    if marker (0) = the frame then
    -- this is true when the marker is on the current frame
    end if

  • How to get my Name in the From Field instead of email address?

    For an Exchange Activesync account, how do you get your friendly "Name" to show in the From: field rather than email address ([email protected])?
    I seem to be able to do this fro IMAP/POP accounts but not Exchange Activesync.
    All the discussions I've found about gmail and Activesync seem to be centered on getting your messages to show a different return email address than your exchange account. I'm not looking for this, just to show the Name.
    Thanks

    If you add a contact ("Contacts app>> "+">> enter info) with that email address, it will appear in mail with whatever name you set in the email address' contact.

    Hi Romano & Detlev ,
    Thanks for the reply .
    This is what I was looking
    Detlev:
    About the NPE ... in the above code I am not getting that.
    Thats my mistake
    Earlier I tried with
    IResource rsrPublished  = (IResource)event.getParameter();
    String rid = rsrPublished.getRID().toString();
    In the second line of code I was getting the NPE
    after that I used to if condition to debug it
    Sorry for the confusion...
    One more thing
    which is the event triggered for approval or how to capture the Approval Event when a content is approved by the Approver
    thanks

    I don't know if I understand your question, but you cannot find the class name because it is in run time just an object. You can, however, check if it is an instanceof.
    if (genericType instanceof MyType) {
         doMyThing();
    }

  • How to get host name in the workflow?

    Hi,
       I've a requirement where I need to get CQ Inbox url (http://<hostname>:<port>/inbox) in my custom workflow process. I thought of configuring url to some node and retriving from there.. but It's not the good approach as host name will be different for differnt CQ environments. So what is the best way of getting inbox url?
    Env: CQ 5.6
    Thanks

    Yep Justin, If the configuration is wrong, any link generated would also be wrong.. I mean, default configuration will be some thing like..
    I mean, I can change those configurations as per my instance host name, right?

  • How to get reference name in the class

    i have a doubt in java.
    class x
    public String toString()
    // code here i want
    class y
    p s v main(.....)
    x servlets=new x();
    x jsp=new x();
    s.o.p(servlets);
    s.o.p(jsp);
    the result i want is :
    hai servlets
    hai jsp
    what code to be in toString().

    You can't get hold of the variable name at runtime. If you want that output, you'll need to create it like this:
    x servlets=new x("servlets");so that the x.toString() can know which string to print out.

  • How to get functionID/Name of the current page

    Hi guys,
    I have two EBS standard forms "Supplier Entry" and "Supplier View Only" defined as two separate functions in the menu. Depending on which function was launched by the user I have to do some extension.
    I found that following code can be used to know whether function is available in the menu or not. But the problem occurs in situation where both functions are available to the user and since the logic fail.
    FunctionSecurity funcSecurity = pageContext.getFunctionSecurity();
    boolean isFunc1 = funcSecurity.testFunction(funcSecurity.getFunction("YOUR_FUNCTION_SHORT_NAME1"));
    I need to know specifically which function was used to launch the form.
    On the following post https://forums.oracle.com/message/10468620#10468620 Parag tell something like this
    ( "IMC_NG_ORG_CONTACTS".equals(pageContext.getParameter("ImcLandingFunction"))
    but I don't know what  "ImcLandingFunction" equates to in my scenario. I don't see AOL functions passing any parameters to forms.
    or is there any other method to know?
    Can anyone help?

    did you try these ones ? :
       pageContext.getFormSubmitName();
       pageContext.getFunctionId();

    Hi Kindoo,
    Create a instance of File object using the path of the Directory

    To get the List of all the files in the directory use

  • How to get the name of the attachment in Sender Mail Adaper?

    hi mates,
    I've scenario a where in I need to pick up a mail with an attachment and change its extension and send it to target system using file adapter.
    I'm able to pick up the mail with attachment using sender mail adapter but not able to get the name of the attachment so that I can use it in mapping or on the adapter configuration. How do I read the name of the attachment and manupulate it?
    I looked at the thread sender mail adapter - attachment name But the solution is not described. I think Stefan is talking about the SP!2 for PI 7.0. I'm on XI 3.0 what is the equivalent SP for that, SP20? Stefan, can you please throw me more light on it?
    I appreciate your valuable inputs
    thx in adv

    Thanks Aamir.
    Earlier I replied to that thread asking for more details...but did not see the response...
    anyways, thanks for your quick help..
    but I wonder abt the PI SP12/ XI SP20 pre-requisite. We can have adapter modules on SPs lower than PI SP12/XI SP20 as well, can we not?
    thanks

  • Can we get the name of fmx file at runtime

    Hi all,
    can we get the name of fmx file which is doing some DML operation on a specific table Can we back track which fmx module has done DML on a specific table. The reason I need this because I've 7 different fmx files which are doing some DML operation on a specific table and these fmx files were used by different users. Not necessarily 1:1 For eg. one user can do DML through 3 different fmx files. So in such case if I want to want to know from which fmx file this DML has take place .How can I achieve that. I know I can get the oracle username through v$session but it will not suffice my needs. I need the name of fmx file also.

    Percy,
    For that you can set the Module Field in the V$session in each form by,
    DBMS_APPLICATION_INFO.SET_MODULE(MODULE_NAME => :SYSTEM.CURRENT_FORM, ACTION_NAME => USER);Write this in each form, and then you will get the form name in the V$SESSION's module field with form name.
    Hope this helps.
