How to get the size of file

Hi
I want to know the size of the file from Java. ie If i have 10 lines in that file each of 15 characters
then 10 *2*10=200Bytes is the size. How will i get this?
More over, if i am reading the 4 the line, how will get the info that I have read 3 lines =3*2*10= 60 bytes so far?
Regards
Sriram

This is from the JavaDocs on java.io.File
length
public long length()
Returns the length of the file denoted by this abstract pathname. The return value is unspecified if this pathname denotes a directory.
Returns:
The length, in bytes, of the file denoted by this abstract pathname, or 0L if the file does not exist
Any of the read methods (except readLine()) on the many stream objects return the number of bytes read, simply accumulate these returns to know how many bytes have been read.

How to get the number of files currently open?

hi,
does any one know how to get the number of files currently open in windows OS?
e.g. lets say .txt files...
any comment will be really appreciated.
thanks

Assuming that you don't want to actually do this from within Java code (which would obviously require native code), here's a utility that will give you a list of which file handles are opened by which processes (on Windows):

if you use linux
just
cat /proc/meminfo

How to get the size of partition?

The following SQL will get the rows of the fact table & aggregation. But how to get the size (MB) of the partition. select * from $system.discover_partition_stat That should be doable, because in BIDS, we can see the size of a partition, but from which
view we can do that?

This is the best bet you have SELECT * FROM SystemRestrictSchema($system.discover_partition_stat ,DATABASE_NAME = 'Adventure Works DW' ,CUBE_NAME = 'Adventure Works' ,MEASURE_GROUP_NAME = 'Internet Sales' ,PARTITION_NAME = 'Internet_Sales_2003') Refer

I would be interested in the answer of this question, too.
In core Java there is no way to find it out in a platform independent manner because of the hardware abstraction of the VM. So my only idea is to write a native library for doing this and colling it via JNI

[Win VC++ 6.0 ]How to get the number of files count in a folder using VC++ 6.0?

Hi all,
Can any one tell how to get the number of files(.EPS) count inside a folder when the folder path is specified in VC++ 6.0?
Thanks in Advance.

myriaz

I'm a little confused by the question, but it sounds like you're asking how to count the number of files with a particular extension in a given directory? That's not really an AI SDK question, but it's a fairly easy one to find if you google it. If you're trying to use Illustrator to do it, AI doesn't have a general purpose file API. It has a few functions to do some things that Illustrator needs, but I don't think enumerating directories is one of them.

How to reduce the size of file after delete some datas?

Hi,
What BDB release are you using? If it's one of the latest releases, then what you are looking for is the DB->compact() method:
http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E17076_01/html/api_reference/C/dbcompact.html
The DB->compact() method compacts Btree, Hash, and Recno access method databases, and optionally returns unused Btree, Hash or Recno database pages to the underlying filesystem. Please let me know if it helps.

How to get the size of the file

Hi All,
I want to get the size of the file in terms of bytes. I used the following code it returns the value in long how can get it in bytes
import java.io.File;
public class ServerBackupCheck {
     public static void main(String args[]){
          File f = new File("C:/Program Files/Apache Software Foundation/Tomcat 5.5");
          System.out.println(f.isDirectory());
          System.out.println(f.getTotalSpace());
output:
true

regards,
Maheshwaran Devaraj

if it is a folder you can use this recursive algorithm
public static long recurse(File f) throws IOException
          long bytes = 0;
          File files[] = f.listFiles();
          for(int i =0 ;i<files.length;i++)
               File file = files ;
               if(file.isFile())
                    FileInputStream fis = new FileInputStream(file);
                    byte[] by = new byte[fis.available()];
                    fis.read(by);
                    bytes = bytes + by.length;
               if(file.isDirectory())
                    bytes = bytes + recurse(file);
          return bytes;
System.out.println(recurse(f)); gives you the total bytes....

How to get the size of the blob file uploaded ?

Hi ,
Is there anyway to get the size of the file i have uploaded to a blob type attribute ?
What i can see is that when we upload a file in contributor UI ,once the file is uploaded successfully and if we hover on it , it will show the filename , type and size of the uploaded file .
From where can we get that details so that we can reuse these details in our code ?
Thanks and Regards,
Praveen

A filter is a sensible solution, or you can get it in a roundabout way like this for example if you have the blobid (this is paraphrased from OpenMarket/Gator/AttributeTypes/IMAGEPICKERShowImages.jsp):
<ics:sql sql='<%="select urldata,filevalue from MungoBlobs where id=" + ics.GetVar("blobid")%>' listname="blobdata" table="MungoBlobs" />
<ics:listget listname="blobdata" fieldname="urldata" output="urldata" />
<ics:setvar name="blobpath" value='<%=ics.GetProperty("cc.urlattrpath", "gator.ini", true) + ics.GetVar("urldata")%>' />
<%
File blobFile = new File(ics.GetVar("blobpath"));
long length = blobFile.length();
%>
