  • How to Read all files inside resource Folder inside Jar?

    I have a Jar file,,,, The program reads for resource files in the resource folder inside the Jar. I want my program to read all files inside this folder without knowing the names or the number of files in the folder.
    I am using this to make an Applet easy to be updated with spicific files. I just want to add a file inside the resource folder and Jar the program and automatically the program reads what ever is in there!!
    I used the File class to get all file names inside the resource folder. it works fine before Jarring the program. After I jar I recieve a URI not Herarichy Exception!!
    File fold=new java.io.File(getClass().getResource(folder).toURI());
    String[] files=fold.list();
    I hope the question is clear!!

    How to get the directory and jar file that you class resides in:
    // returns path and jarfile (ex: /home/mydir/my.jar)
    public String getJarfileName()
            // Get the location of the jar file and the jar file name
            java.net.URL outputURL = YourClass.class.getProtectionDomain().getCodeSource().getLocation();
            String outputString = outputURL.toString();
            String[] parseString;
            int index1 = outputString.indexOf(":");
            int index2 = outputString.lastIndexOf(":");
            if (index1!=index2) // Windows/DOS uses C: naming convention
               parseString = outputString.split("file:/");
            else
               parseString = outputString.split("file:");
            String jarFilename = parseString[1];
           return jarFilename;
    }If your my.jar was in /home/mydir, it will store "/home/mydir/my.jar" in jarFilename.
    note: getLocation returns "file:/C:/home/mydir/my.jar" for Windows/DOS and "file:/home/mydir/my.jar" for windows, thus why I look for the first and last index of the colon so I can correctly split the string.
    If you want to grab a file in the jar file and get an InputStream, do the following:
    import java.io.*;
    import java.util.Enumeration;
    // jar stuff
    import java.util.jar.*;
    import java.util.zip.ZipEntry;
    public class Jaris
       private JarFile jf;
       public Jaris(String jarFilename) throws Exception
           try
                           jf = new JarFile(jarFilename);
           catch (Exception e)
                jf=null;
                throw(e);
       public InputStream getInputStream(String matchString) throws Exception
           ZipEntry ze=null;
           try
              Enumeration resources = jf.entries();
              while ( resources.hasMoreElements() )
                 JarEntry je = (JarEntry) resources.nextElement();
                 // find a file that matches this string from anywhere in my jar file
                 if ( je.getName().matches(".*\\"+matchString) )
                    String filename=je.getName();
                    ze=jf.getEntry(filename);
          catch (Exception e)
             throw(e);
          InputStream is = jf.getInputStream(ze);
          return is;
       // for testing the Jaris methods
       public static void main(String[] args)
          try
               String jarFilename=getJarfileName();
               Jaris jis = new Jaris(jarFilename); // this is the string we got from the other method listed above
               InputStream is=jis.getInputStream("myfile.txt"); // can be used for xml, xsl, etc
          catch (Exception e)
             // this is just a test, so we'll ignore the exception
    }Happy coding! :)

    If you use Chris Poole's XUTL_FTL package, I believe that contains functions that allows you to query the directory contents.

  • Read All Files in a Folder

    I have a large set of data. Many don't have similar names at all. They
    all have the same data form (a 100x2 array for example).
    Is there a way to have a VI read all the files, one after another,
    automatically? It's a lot easier when the files are the same name, but
    ending/starting with different ID numbers. If they're all different,
    what can I do?
    Also, is it possible to create a VI, so that a file 'dropped' onto the
    VI's icon, will cause it to process the data? I'm not sure if this is
    a Labview or MS Windows problem.
    Thank you for your time.

    You can simplify this if all your files are in the same directory. Check the example attached that read all .jpg images in a directory and display them in a picture control. Enter the directory path before running.
    As for your second question, it can be done, but I think (I might be wrong) that you must convert your vi into an executable. Check the following example:
    Get Calling File Path from Command Line

  • How to move my all files to one folder

    hi, I had created different folders in the acrobat.com. Now, I want to move all my files from all the folders to a different folder. How can I do this? there is not copy or move options available. Please help..

    Just to clarify, the above answer is for Workspaces (url is workspaces.acrobat.com), which is the legacy form of Acrobat.com. It should also be noted, to move files in workspaces, you can simply drag/drop files to the folder you want to move them to. You can select multiple files using control + shift key or control+A to select all
    However, if you are referring to the cloud storage solution Acrobat.com (url is files.acrobat.com):
    Select the files you want to move
    After selecting the file(s) a tool bar will display
    Click on the Move tool and choose your destination folder in the move dialog

  • 10.6.4:  how to unlock all files in a folder

    hi,
    how do you unlock all files inside a folder?
    thank you..

    thank you.. (I wonder why you can't just do it by getting info on the folder, then saying, unlock all files inside.. (u can do like that in windows) this is always more practical than having to select all files (and accidentally opening them, or something...-) in windows you can select a folder and then say, (un)lock all files and and dirs -- and subdirs and files inside -- inside this folder.. can u do something like this in mac os? if not, that's not very good.. (I guess on the mac would need to find unix commands for doing something like this..)
    they really need to consider this for future versions, this is a no-brainer...;-)
    thank you..

  • Newbie question -  How to read all files for a backup

    Hello all,
    I have two users on my iMac. I am an administrator and the other user is a Standard user.
    From my account, I wish to run backup software that will backup the entire "User" directory. The problem I am having is that when I run the backup software (fyi: iBackup),
    it complains that it cannot read the files in the other user's account.
    I notice that when I browse to the other user's account, all the directories in their home folder are locked.
    How can I run my backup software so that it can read all files in the User directory?
    Thank you kindly!

    Hi kneecarrot !
    I don't know if this will suit your needs, but one easy way of backing up other user's stuff is via the terminal . If you have an admin accountm just use:
    sudo ditto -rsrcFork /Users /Volumes/"nameof_anotherharddrive"/Users
    This will perform an identical clone of all your users home direcories for backup purposes. To restore the bkd'up files, just reverse the lines:
    sudo ditto -rsrcFork /Volumes/"nameof_anotherharddrive"/Users /Users
    ATTENTION: Be aware that it will restore the files to the exact structure and contents it was when backed up, erasing all new and modified files!! You may however copy just the files/folders you want to recover, e.g.:
    sudo ditto -rsrcFork /Volumes/"nameof_another_harddrive"/Users/"usera"/Documents /Users/"user_a"/Documents
    IMPORTANT: As with all terminal commands... be careful, think twice and double-check the syntax. You may want to test with non-critical stuff or demo user accounts first.
    Good luck,

    Thanks

    Consolidate files of selected songs while using copy on all should do it all for you, but create a lot of redundant data if your sessions share many files. It's safer though.

    how can I read what is inside the resource folder, which is located outisde the Jar, without having their addresses before hand!!
    in short, I would like the applet to open the resource folder, get an array of all files in the folder, and then reads them.
    I tried encapsulating the getCodeBase().toURI() with a File Object.
    But when I call the file.list() it throws an AccessControlException
