How to read and write files using flex?

Using flex, we would like to make some utility that will do a
lot of reading and writing from local files.
The writing is what I am more worried about. How is this
possible?
I want to make .zip files containing many xml files, and some
assorted media files such as .swf jpeg, html, etc.
I am new to flex btw, I've never used it properly before, and
this is the main concern I have with flex, which is that it doesn't
let me write and read lots of files.
Mainly we are looking for a good cross platform solution that
will let us develop an app, and flex looks professional and it is
cross platform. The "internet app" side of things, isn't so much
what we need really.
Would wxWidgets be better suited to our needs?

The Flash player sand box will not allow reading and writing
local files. If you want to use Flex to create a desktop you will
need the Apollo runtime. The alpha is available at Adobe
Labs.

Help with how to read and write files to the applets server

I am writing a form that requires some data to be written serverside(not on the host machine) and I also need to be able to read from those same files.
Can anyone provide any help?
I looked into signing but it seems, to me, that signing is for when you are going to be modifying files on the host...

Would I use that to refer to the file like I would with a regular application?Nope. It's pretty complicated. You've got to set something up on the server to accept requests, get all the data and then save files somewhere and on the client side you've got to make the connection and send the data.

How to read and write a string into a txt.file

Hi, I am now using BEA Workshop for Weblogic Platform version10. I am using J2EE is my programming language. The problem I encounter is as the above title; how to read and write a string into a txt.file with a specific root directory? Do you have any sample codes to reference?
I hope someone can answer my question as soon as possible
Thank you very much.

Accessing the file system directly from a web app is a bad idea for several reasons. See http://weblogs.java.net/blog/simongbrown/archive/2003/10/file_access_in.html for a great discussion of the topic.
On Weblogic there seems to be two ways to access files. First, use a File T3 connector from the console. Second, use java.net.URL with the file: protocol. The T3File object has been deprecated and suggests:
Deprecated in WebLogic Server 6.1. Use java.net.URL.openConnection() instead.

How to read and write on ntfs partitions??

Hello everyone, thanks for viewing my post. I want to know how to read and write on ntfs partitions under sata hd on my arch64 system. I'm using kde as my de and dolphin does sees it but can't access it anyway. I didn't had problem so far on mounting usb drives it just automounts maybe because it is a fat partition not a ntfs? Please I need your help...Thanks in advance:)

You will most likely need to rework your fstab. The one from my desktop is shown below. If you want regular users to be able to access the partition, then you will need to change the gid option as I have done. Although you could create a group just for people you want to have access.
You will need to know the device that your windows partition is held on of course. In my case it is my first hard disk, first partition, hence /dev/sda1.
# /etc/fstab: static file system information
# <file system> <dir> <type> <options> <dump> <pass>
none /dev/pts devpts defaults 0 0
none /dev/shm tmpfs defaults 0 0
/dev/cdrom /media/cdrom auto ro,user,noauto,unhide 0 0
/dev/dvd /media/dvd auto ro,user,noauto,unhide 0 0
/dev/mapper/nvidia_fbgfhehd1 /boot ext2 defaults 0 1
/dev/mapper/nvidia_fbgfhehd2 / reiserfs defaults 0 1
/dev/mapper/nvidia_fbgfhehd3 /var reiserfs defaults 0 1
/dev/mapper/nvidia_fbgfhehd5 /opt reiserfs defaults 0 1
/dev/mapper/nvidia_fbgfhehd6 swap swap defaults 0 0
/dev/mapper/nvidia_fbgfhehd7 /home reiserfs defaults 0 1
/dev/sdd1 /mnt/andromeda vfat defaults 0 0
/dev/sda1 /mnt/windows ntfs-3g defaults,user,gid=users 0 0
My XP partition is set to mount automatically, as I regularly interchange documents between the OS's.
Hope that helps.

How to read a text file using Java

Guys,
Good day!
Please help me how to read a text file using Java and create/convert that text file into XML.
Thanks and God Bless.
Regards,
I-Talk

     public void fileRead(){
             File aFile =new File("myFile.txt");
         BufferedReader input = null;
         try {
           input = new BufferedReader( new FileReader(aFile) );
           String line = null;
           while (( line = input.readLine()) != null){
         catch (FileNotFoundException ex) {
           ex.printStackTrace();
         catch (IOException ex){
           ex.printStackTrace();
     }This code is to read a text file. But there is no such thing that will convert your text file to xml file. You have to have a defined XML format. Then you can read your data from text files and insert them inside your xml text. Or you may like to read xml tags from text files and insert your own data. The file format of .txt and .xml is far too different.

What do I need to do to be able to read and write files to a Seagate Backup Plus Slim Portable Drive on BOTH a Mac and a PC? I downloaded "Paragon NTFS for Mac" onto my Mac, so now I can write to the drive, but when I plug it into a PC it won't work.

If the HDD is formatted NTFS, then it suggests that there is a problem with the PC. Check with the manufacturer.

HELP!: How to read and write to External hard drives? What file system to use?

hey all, this has been really frustrating for me today. i want to be able to write to an external HDD that's formatted in NTFS. today i find out it isn't possible to write to this file system on a Mac and that on FAT32 it is possible. however, FAT32 can't address files larger than 4GB so this hurts me a lot. are there any other file systems that'll allow me to read and write from a Mac? my goal was to use freeNAS to build a NAS with an old tower and connect my external hard drives to it, but if i can't write to them this may not be possible.
thanks guys, i'd appreciate any help!

We don't have many samples left for Windows Phone 7 + Azure, the closest one to what you want to do is probably:
Using Local Storage with OData on Windows Phone To Reduce Network Bandwidth
this sample uses the local database feature: 'LINQ to SQL', available to Windows Phone 7.1 and 8.0 Silverlight applications, instead of simple file storage but even if you choose to stick with simple file storage I believe you should be able to adapt the
networking related portions of the sample to your particular application.

How to burn read and write files on DVD

I would like to know how to burn DVDs (image files) with the Read and Write setting. I have changed the settings in Get Info for the image files to Read and Write for Owner, Group and Others and yet when I burn the DVD and try and copy the files back onto the hard drive (to test if it works or not) it won't allow me. When I check the Get Info it says Read and Write for owner (greyed out) and Read Only for Group and Others (greyed out too).
I have also tried to change the status of the blank DVD before adding files and after adding the files (but b4 the burn) to Read and Write, this works but then during the burn process the DVD or burner changes my settings to Read Only.
I am burning with Finder and have tried with Toast 10 Titanium. What am I doing wrong, or not doing at all?! I'm going loopy with frustration!

Kiraly, I agree that the actual problem here might be something else, but as a side issue there seems to be a difference in the way permissions are handled when a file copy is made using Finder compared to when the copy is made using the cp copy in Terminal. At least in my Tiger system, Finder preserved the permission structure, though not the ownership, when it copied a file, whereas cp used the OS defaults.
I tried the following experiment:
From my test user account "t", I created a textfile named ReadWrite.txt, and gave it Read+Write permissions for Owner, Group, and Others. I then burned it using Finder to a DVD which I named PermissionTest, and then unchecked the "Ignore Ownership" box on PermissionTest.
The original ownership and permissions were preserved on the DVD, though of course you couldn't actually write to anything there:
xxG5-Computer:~ t$ ls -l /Volumes/PermissionTest/ReadWrite.txt
-rw-rw-rw- 1 t t 15 Sep 13 18:25 /Volumes/PermissionTest/ReadWrite.txt
I then copied the file from the DVD to the Desktop using Finder, and the permissions were preserved!
Finder copy:
xxG5-Computer:~ t$ ls -l /Users/t/Desktop/ReadWrite.txt
-rw-rw-rw- 1 t t 15 Sep 13 18:25 /Users/t/Desktop/ReadWrite.txt
I then trashed the Finder copy of ReadWrite,txt on the desktop, and made a second copy from the DVD, but this time I used the cp command from Terminal instead of using Finder. This time the permissions were not preserved, but reverted to the OS default:
cp copy:
xxG5-Computer:~ t$ cp /Volumes/PermissionTest/ReadWrite.txt Desktop
xxG5-Computer:~ t$ ls -l /Users/t/Desktop/ReadWrite.txt
-rw-r--r-- 1 t t 15 Sep 13 19:43 /Users/t/Desktop/ReadWrite.txt
I then switched to a different user account "t1", and repeated the above with the same DVD, first copying the ReadWrite.txt file to the desktop using Finder, and then using cp. The ownership of the copied file changed from t to t1 in both cases, but the permission structure again was preserved in the Finder copy but not in the cp copy:
DVD file:
xxG5-Computer:~ t1$ ls -l /Volumes/PermissionTest/ReadWrite.txt
-rw-rw-rw- 1 t t 15 Sep 13 18:25 /Volumes/PermissionTest/ReadWrite.txt
Finder copy:
xxG5-Computer:~ t1$ ls -l /Users/t1/Desktop/ReadWrite.txt
-rw-rw-rw- 1 t1 t1 15 Sep 13 18:25 /Users/t1/Desktop/ReadWrite.txt
cp copy:
xxG5-Computer:~ t1$ cp /Volumes/PermissionTest/ReadWrite.txt Desktop
xxG5-Computer:~ t1$ ls -l /Users/t1/Desktop/ReadWrite.txt
-rw-r--r-- 1 t1 t1 15 Sep 13 19:51 /Users/t1/Desktop/ReadWrite.txt
I got similar results when I tried copying a file with Read+Write permissions for all from a USB flash drive to the Desktop, again with the "Ignore Ownership" box unchecked.
