How to get the plugin filename in which the script is written?

Hello.
I am looking for the name of the file in which a plugin script is written.
I need to get this filename to put it into a property in the dataportal when the plugin executes. And I need the name to update if the file containing the plugin script is renamed.
I didn't find anything in the DataPlugin.chm helpfile.
Thanks for your help.
Patrick.

Hi Patrick,
That's a good product suggestion, I'll pass that on.  I always just declare a constant at the top of the DataPlugin VBScript and reference that whenever I need to send the name of the DataPlugin to a particular property or include it in an error message.  In practice I've found it quite rare for a DataPlugin to change its name once it's been created, debugged, and deployed.
Note that if you use a DataPlugin to load data channels into the Data Portal, DIAdem automatically adds a property to each channel with that DataPlugin name.  Look at the "Data source type" property name in the Data Portal's property table, and if you want to request that property programmatically, use one of the following methods:
DataPluginName = ChnPropValGet("GroupName/ChannelName", "SourceType")DataPluginName = Channel.Properties("SourceType").Value

  • How to get the script of a table or view in SQL Developer?

    Dear friends/expert,
    Could you tell me how to get the script for a view or a table easily in SQL Developer like pressing F4 in TOAD?
    I found that I can press SHIFT+F4 for a view in SQL Developer and get the script of the view in Details Tab. But how to move the script to SQL worksheet to edit? It is very easy to do in TOAD.
    And I didn't find a way to get the script for a table till now. Is there any way to do that?
    Thanks in advance.
    Best regards,
    Ning

    1. Although the team might put a lot of effort in keeping track on the forum, a lot of posts still go by without answer.
    2. If you have an enhancement request, log it at the announced SQL Developer Exchange, so others can vote to add weight on the issue. Be clear and detailed in the explanation.
    3. Given the structure of the application, I guess it won't be easy (maybe impossible) to add the functionality you are asking. Do you have a suggestion on how to access the info?
    4. If your request gets accepted, still another year or two may go by until the functionality gets added. For sure you'll be better off writing a user defined extension or report (querying DBMS_METADATA.GET_DDL).
    Hope that helps,

  • How to get the current PDF filename?

    Hi everyone,
    I know this might be a question that has been asked millions of times but I couldn't find a direct answer.
    I'm using a work flow that comes with a Content Manager Solution so it is not Adobe this WF will generate a very long file name (about 30 characters) which will be used as the unique process number.
    To move to the next step in the work flow I have to update the table in the database and the record to be updated will use the process number.  What I did is I added a hidden text field to the form which should have the process number on the initialize function.
    Now my question is how to get the file name of the opened PDF file??
    I'm sure there is a function in JS but I couldn't find the way to do it.
    Thanks in advance guys for the help.

    Thanks Bruce, it worked.
    Here is what I did:
    I create a textfield and added this script in initialize event:
    ==============================================================
    var 
    fileName = event.target.documentFileName;
    //removing the file extensionvar  vDot = fileName.length-4;
    //apply the value to the TxtFieldthis.rawValue= fileName.substring(0,vDot);

  • How to get the list of icc profile,which Photoshop loaded?

    I am developing a automation plugin,but I do not know how to get the list of icc profile,which photoshop loaded.
    I have read the log of "getter" and "Listener",and not find the way to get the list.

    Thank you for you answer.
    I find a icc profile has a "internal name" which show in the color setting menu in photoshop and a "external name" which is the file name. And the "internal name" maybe different with "external name".
    How I can get the "internal name" from the icc profile? I do not find the information in the ICC Profile Format Specification.
    Thank you very much!

  • I downloaded and bought a movie from iTunes on my iPad and now want the same movie on my MacBook Pro but its not offering me to download it, it giving me the options of buying it which I already did. How I get the movie onto my MacBook?

    I downloaded and bought a movie from iTunes on my iPad and now want the same movie on my MacBook Pro but its not offering me to download it, it giving me the options of buying it which I already did. How I get the movie onto my MacBook?

    You can connect the iPad to your Mac's iTunes and do File > Devices > Transfer Purchases, that should copy it over to the Movies part of your library.
    Depending upon what country that you are in, and whether the film studio allows it, you might also be able to re-download it on your Mac via the Purchased link under Quicklinks on the right-hand side of the iTunes store home page.

  • How to get the data from mysql database which is being accessed by a PHP application and process the data locally in adobe air application and finally commit the changes back in to mysql database through the PHP application.

    How to get the data from mysql database which is being accessed by a PHP application and process the data locally in adobe air application and finally commit the changes back in to mysql database through the PHP application.

    If the data is on a remote server (for example, PHP running on a web server, talking to a MySQL server) then you do this in an AIR application the same way you would do it with any Flex application (or ajax application, if you're building your AIR app in HTML/JS).
    That's a broad answer, but in fact there are lots of ways to communicate between Flex and PHP. The most common and best in most cases is to use AMFPHP (http://amfphp.org/) or the new ZEND AMF support in the Zend Framework.
    This page is a good starting point for learning about Flex and PHP communication:
    http://www.adobe.com/devnet/flex/flex_php.html
    Also, in Flash Builder 4 they've added a lot of remote-data-connection functionality, including a lot that's designed for PHP. Take a look at the Flash Builder 4 public beta for more on that: http://labs.adobe.com/technologies/flashbuilder4/

  • How to get the Real Path of a file which is accessed  by URL?

    iam using tomcat6.0.
    I have a file xyz.xml at the top of the webapplication HFUSE which i can able to access by URL
    http://localhost:8080/HFUSE/xyz.xml
    My problem is how to get the realpath of the file "xyz.xml" for reading and writing purposes.
    I tried various things but i could not able to successfully solved the problem?
    1) File f = new File("/xyz.xml");
    print(f.getAbsolutePath()) ============== it is not fetching the file @ http://localhost:8080/HFUSE/xyz.xml rather it is creating a file
    at the root of the drive where eclipse is running.
    2) File f = new File("xyz.xml");============> this is also not working , it is creating the file xyz.xml in the eclipse directory ..................
    Can anyone please guide on this problem?

    RevertInIslam wrote:
    If you want your context root(i.e HFUSE)
    use this:
    request.getContextPath() //where request is HttpServletRequest object to get the needful path.
    e.g:
    File f = new File(request.getContextPath()+"/xyz.xml");//it will create the file inside HFUSE.
    Hope this helps.
    Regards
    BWrong. The File constructor expects an absolute filesystem path. The HttpServletRequest#getContextPath() doesn't return the absolute filesystem path, it only returns the relative path from the current context root. Use ServletContext#getRealPath() instead, it returns the absolute filesystem path for the given relative path from the current context root.
    File file = new File(servletContext.getRealPath("/"), "xyz.xml");

  • How to get the specific filename

    Hi..
    I want to get the specific file where the filename contains current date like "asd.11.20051226.03.dat". Then, i want to write the filename to a text file.
    Now, i only know how to get the list of file in a specific directory& write the whole list to a text file. How to filter the list of filename because they have "dot" in their name?

    To determine if a string contains a dot:I have a feeling that about 10 seconds after he figures out whether the filename contains a dot he's going to need to look a little deeper to determine whether he found wakka.wrongfile.txt or 11.20.1980.the.file.hes.looking.for.data. Maybe?
