How to read a file residing on the client

Hi
How to read a text file residing on client using webdynpro application( If I write code in controller it will go the the server path rather than client path) ? Can somebody please help me
Thanks

Hi,
If you want to upload a file to the server then you can use the webdynpro FileUpload to read the file from the local machine and
save it to the server.
But if you want to only read the file from the local machine you need to keep the file within the application in the path - scr/packages/components
Thanks

How to read xml file present in the UCMS from webcenter portal application

Hi,
I'm new to webcenter portal and would like to know how to read an xml file which is present in UCMS 11g(contributors folder) from webcenter portal application.
Thanks in advance

I guess I had mentioned that I want to read it via my webcenter portal app rather than login to ucms and searching it via url.
I want text labels and button names being stored in the xml file which I'm going to keep in the UCMS.
After reading that from the xml will be placed at appropriate locations like the button values and label feilds, so that we dont need to deploy entire app for this kind of simple changes.
Now can anyone provide some help with the api's related to this?

How to read trace files alerted in the alert.log file

Hello,
My alert.log file indicated multiple trace files to review. How to read these trace files to understand the cause of errors. Do I open the trace files with vi and do a search for 'ORA-' error. Are there tools to read and understand trace files. Thank you.

It depends what kind of trace file it is.
You can use vi or other text editing tool to open the trace file. The trace file usually provides more detailed information when you have ORA- errors in alert.log. It's also very helpful for Oracle support when troubleshooting.

1) Next time use the CODE tags. this is way too much unreadable crap.
2) The problem is your String[][] data.... the only place I see you do anything approching initializing it is
data = new String[numLines][];I think you want to do this..
data = new String[numLines][3];anyway that's why it's blowing up on the line
data[row][col]=st.nextToken();

     return allDetails;
}i just wondering how can i code the ReadFile class?
can anyone help me please. thank you in advance.

thank you for your suggestion, but i have already started to code the readCustomer class using the Scanner.
the code i got so far is:
import java.util.Scanner;
import java.io.*;
public class readCustomer
    public static void main(String[] args)
     readCustomer("Customers.txt");
    public static void readCustomer(String filename)
     try {
         Scanner scanner = new Scanner(new File(filename));
         scanner.useDelimiter(System.getProperty("line.separator"));
         while (scanner.hasNext()) {
          processLine(scanner.next());
         scanner.close();
     } catch (FileNotFoundException e) {
         e.printStackTrace();
    public static void processLine(String line)
     Scanner scanner2 = new Scanner(line);
     scanner2.useDelimiter("\\s*:\\s*");
     String description = scanner2.next();
*// here is where i am struggling. i don't know how to get the information after the : sign*
}i am currently struggling with the processLine method?
also, i am not sure how to group a set of information and put them into the arraylist.
Any hint, please. Thank you.

Access file reside in the solution/package files on azure

Hi All,
I have one file in my solution and it will be uploaded along with package file. now one of the task is to validate file uploaded by end-user with file reside in solution. i am keeping uploaded file into the block blob.
how i can access file reside in solution on cloud ? should i have to kept file in blob or do we have other better option ?
BR,
Jonyy

Hi,
As I know you can use the Get Package API from Windows Azure Service Management REST API to retrieve files. I think storing files in blob is still a good way:

HOw to update XML file residing in DAM by component JSP in run-time?

i have made a component which reads xml file residing in DAM.
Content Author can fill some values in dialog of this component, as soon as author provide the values,i have to update these values in XML file and component reloadsby reading the updated xml file.
i am trying to achieve this by making object of XML file and giving it's path., but i ma unable to access the XML file.
Can anyone help me out to how to update XML file by component JSP in run-time?

Now the changed data must be exported back into the XML file, meaning that the content of certain elements must be updated. How can this be done with XSLT?
XSLT approach: check these online tutorial
http://www.xml.com/pub/a/2000/08/02/xslt/index.html
http://www.xml.com/pub/a/2000/06/07/transforming/index.html
ABAP approach:
for example you have the xml (original) in a string called say xml_out .
data: l_xml type ref to cl_xml_document ,
        node type ref to if_ixml_node .
create object l_xml.
call method l_xml->parse_string
exporting
    stream = xml_out.
node = l_xml->find_node(
    name   = 'IDENTITY'
   ROOT   = ROOT
l_xml->set_attribute(
    name    = 'Name'
    value   = 'Charles'
    node    = node
(the above example reads the element IDENTITY and sets attribute name/value to the same)
like wise you can add new elements starting from IDENTITY using various methods available in class CL_XML_DOCUMENT
so how do I access the XML file in order to update it?
you have already read this XML into a ABAP variable right?
Sorry couldnt understand your whole process, why do you need to read local XML file?

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.

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.

HI Hareesh,
i have gone through that blog.
i tried it...but i am getting mapping error no receiver determination fond because there are so many excel files.
my data is available on sharedString.xml but also it is in not same order.
i have no clue how to handle this part form the blog.
"This way our mapping will receive all data from the sheet in an XML format. The only thing that's left is to create an XSD file from the XML file we received in order to be able to use it in the mapping and as our Service Interface and we can proceed with mapping. As you can see from the sheet.xml files all the data is placed with column name and row number so it's not that difficult to map it to an table type format using the Message Mapping only (no java, abap mapping required)."
