How to put a file lock on the contents of a folder and sub folders?

Initally I recursively went through the children of the folder and created a file lock for each child, however after abour 2025 locks i recieved a Too many open files exception.
Is it possible to lock a folder such that the contents of the folder cannot be changed? and would that stop the Too many open files Exception?

Hmm.... I would have thought that this was a reasonably common problem. If no-one here can help directly, can someone point me to a forum or similar which may be able to help me?
Cheers

    I want to be able to create a list of the contents of a folder - preferably to put it into a spreadsheet.  How cna I do this?

    Print Window is a great little app for this.   You can save file listings directly to Excel or Tab-delimited text with the advanced version ($20)

  • How to find out how many items within folder (and sub folders)?

    Hi all,
    This may be a silly question - but if I have a folder (containing sub folders etc) is there a way to calculate how many file items are within this folder?
    I cant seem to do it using the info panel. And the standard view tells you how many file items are within the folder you are looking at, but not in the sub and sub sub folders etc.
    Thanks for any help!

  • Reading the contents of a folder and store them in the database using 6i

    Hi all,
    I'm using developer 6i and oracle 8i,now am building personnel database,every employee has many certificates (graduate certificates,post-graduate certificates and work experience certificates),I want to scan all these certificates,put them in a folder ,give the form (employee form ) the path to the folder and the form read the contents of the folder (3 or 4 image files for example) dynamically and store them in the database.
    All examples I came across explain how to load a defined image file name into oracle database,but what if the image file name is not defined (i,e dynamically generated by the scanner).
    Hope I explained the case.
    Thanks in advance

    Sorry mhdamer,
    I read the example and thought it could be modified to retreive a directory listing. There is a way to do what you want, but you will have to check to see if you have the D2kwutil.pll installed with Forms 6i. If you do not have it installed you can download the pll from OTN. This Forms Library will only work on Windows, so if you want this functionality on a non-windows machine, it will not work. Read the D2KWUTIL.html for details on how to use this library. There are also some good posts here in the forums on how to use this library. Just search on D2KWUTIL.PLL.

  • Aperture - Transfer a photography folder and sub-folders to the library

    Hi All,
    Being a photographer, I recently jumped from my Dell XPS to the latest MacBook Pro and am still new on the use of Aperture.
    Working on PC before then, I used to work a lot on Adobe Bridge to organise my pictures. I now work with Aperture that I find it amazing so far for fast treatment but I have an issue with uploading my photos to the library.
    I have set up my full library on my windows explorer following a certain organisation (Folders and subfolders) and would like to upload all these photos on my Aperture library following the same structure. When I try to do so, Aperture just propose me to upload the photos on the folder but not on the subfolders.
    Can anyone help about that? I basically need to load all the photos in one shot to my library and can't find out how to do it!
    Thanks for your help,
    Olivier

    Hi, I am also fairly new to Aperture, but I think I got this one right... when I opened Aperture for the first time it did not have a library, and asked me to create one. I selected create new library, and then told it to leave my originals where they were. I selected the option to import folders as projects, and viola, the Aperture library resembled my Windows folder layout. If you delete the library (careful it is not the original files) and then open aperture you also get to start fresh in this way.
    This is great until you import new photos into your master folders. To get them to show in Aperture in their folders/projects, you seem to have to download a new project, dash off to the source folders using Finder, reorganise the images and then recreate the library again using the same steps. Works, but long. Also I am not sure then how to manage all the changes I have made using the Vault. Lie I said, I am a beginner also... and seem to be stuck in transition between Windows workflows and Mac workflows...

  • How do I share files uploaded into the Creative Cloud with other creative cloud members?

    How do I share files uploaded into the Creative Cloud with other creative cloud members?

    Should be easy.  Try this...
    In Thumbnails view, click the little triangle (pointing downward) in the lower-right corner of the asset you want to share.
    In the blue icon bar that appears, click the Share icon (the third icon from the left, just right of the trash icon). The Share dialog should pop up.
    In the Share dialog, enter the email address of the person with whom you want to share the asset, then click the Send Email button - they'll receive an email with a link to your asset. OR
    You can also copy a link to the asset and then paste that into your own email client if you prefer.  To do that, click the Link icon (looks like a "chain", and is to the right of the email "envelope" icon) - then click the Copy Link button.
    Note that the Share options won't be available if your asset is set to "Private" - you can control whether an asset can be viewed (or downloaded) by others by clicking the Public/Private control (green or red "lock" icon).
    You can also access the same Share controls if you click on the file to see it one-up (you can do this from either Thumbnails view or List view); click the Share icon near the upper right corner of the browser window (to the right of the asset name).
    Hope that helps.

  • How to put picture files and other things on my BB 8703e

    Hello! I know I got a bit of a throwback bb, but I am using it until I can upgrade to a new phone on sprint.
    So, I am barely learning about this bb, so any help or cool uploads and apps I need to add... Please let me know.
    Now I got this app, that will supposedly let me play music files. However, i cannot seem to figure out how to put any files on here when I connect my bb to my computer. When I initially connect the usb it will be like BB connection detected, but it doesn't show a folder or anything...
    Where should i be looking....
    What should I do?

    With the 8707, I believe you will need to visit a website and download the image from there, or from an email you send with the image attached.
    Music or ringtones will need to come from visiting a site with music or ringtones, from the BlackBerry browser.

  • How do I move a file directly from the desktop to a folder in OX 10?

    I am new to Mac and the Mountain Lion software.  Having worked exclusively with PC operating systems, I am familiar with how to work with files in Windows, but am having trouble doing similar actions in OX 10.  How do I move a file directly from the desktop to a folder in OX?  Although this answer is likely in a video tutorioal (somewhere), I do not have the time to sit an arbitrarily watch generic OS videos that give a broad brush overview, without answering specific queries.  Any help out there?

  • How to open a file created at the server through form/report at client end

    How to open a file created at the server through form/report at client end
    Dear Sir/Madame,
    I am creating a exception report at the server-end using utl file utility. I want to display this report at the client end. A user doesn't have any access to server. Will u please write me the solution and oblige me.
    Thanks
    Rajesh Jain

    One way of doing this is to write a PL/SQL procedure that uses UTL_FILE to read the file and DBMS_OUTPUT to display the contents to the users.

  • How can I name files separate from the page titles on the menu options?

    Ok, this is so much of a pain. I use a unix based web-server so the content is very case sensitive, and having spaces in the file names is just unmanageable. So.. how can I have pretty menu titles but have real world filenames?
    Presently I have to generate the pages, drop to vi and edit every frickin file to change the spaces to '_' characters and stuff. Depending on how many pages I have takes quite a long time.
    Anyone figured out a way to get around the stupid apple file naming convention ??
    /bk

    Thanks, I was afraid that was the case. So to have normal filenames that work cross platform I've got to manually tweak the pages once they are done. I suppose I was just hoping there was some 'expert' edit mode where I could have names for the files, vs names for the pretty menu items. Oh well, its not that bad I suppose it takes me say a day to manually code up a multi page site by hand, so if I can blow out a muliti page iWeb site in under an hour and then take another hour to tweak the code its still a win.
    Thanks again!!

    how to put ipod 3rd generation on the disk mode manually?

    I am having this problem as well. I've tried dozens of times at this point. I can produce the apple icon but when I release and press play+select it just reverts back to the red x. The red x is the whole reason I'm trying to get this into disk mode. I need to reset it but I can't until it is in disk mode. I've tried the flat surface, one finger etc etc but disk mode still eludes me. Any other thoughts?
