Associate a File Type with a JAR
How do I get XP to associate a file type with a JAR application? Since the extension on the application is JAR, I get a message from XP that I can't associate with it since it is not exe.
Look at the association for the JAR extension, you'll find that it uses javaw.exe and the "open" action is mapped to some command line involving javaw.exe and %1 which represents the jar file to be executed. Now, for your extension make a very similar setup, only your "open" command line will look something like this:
"C:\...\javaw.exe" -jar YourSpecialJar.jar "%1" %*
That command line runs your jar file and passes the file being "opened" to the command line as the first parameter. (I don't know what the %* does but it's in the command line for the jar extension.) -
Associate .indd file extension with CS6
I have not been able to associate the file extension with CS6 in Windows Vista. The .indd extension is already taken by another application, yet when I try to change it, it does not save.
While highly unlikely as the reason, Vista was not tested and is not supported for CS6.
What “other application” has the INDD association? Is it a different version of InDesign? Did you install the other version AFTER CS6?

XML form: associate the file extension with an image
Hello!
I am creating some XML forms and i have to ulpoad a file.This isn´t a problem, but in RenderListItem I have to associate the file extension with an image(For example .doc with Word icon).Is it possible to do this? ThanksHello ,
I'm sorry, but this is not covered within the standart. You have the opportunity to do so in normal LayoutSets but not within a link in XML Forms. Maybe it's a workaround for you to provide a image selection for the author in the edit form, to select such an image manualy.
hope this helps,

Plz help , how do i associate a file extension with a j2me application
i need to associate a file extension (.gpj) with my j2me application. in other words when i open a .gpj file i need the j2me application to launch.
thankyouTo accomplish this your device need to have an implementation of the Content Handler API (JSR 211)
1. The class that handles the file extension should implement the ContentListener Interface
2. you should register the listener to be notified of new requests
ContentHandlerServer myhandler=Registry.forClass(this.getClass().getName());
myhandler.setListener(this);3.implement the invocationNotify() method of the ContentListener interface to handle this file extension
Cheers

I have attempted unsuccessfully to create a webpage template using Dreamweaver CS6. On investigation I found that my computer was interpreting the dwt. suffix as an AutoCAD template rather than a Dreamweaver template. I do have AutoCAD programmes on my computer and in that software dwt. is a valid suffix for templates. Please someone kindly tell me how to overcome this problem?
One way is to associate the extension with the relevant program as in Choose the apps Windows uses by default - Windows Help
Another way is to right click the template file and choose Open With->Dreamweaver
A third way, if you are running a PHP server is to give the temple a PHP extension as in myTemplate.dwt.php -
How to associate other file extension with text/xml
Hi,
I found that I could only load files into XDB via ftp when they had the file extension ".xml". Why is this?
Thanks
PeteThe information as to which file extensions are associated with which mime-types is stored in the xdbconfig.file. You can add an entry using the following code
connect system/oracle as sysdba
call dbms_xdb.cfg_update

dbms_xdb.cfg_get(),
'/xdbconfig/sysconfig/protocolconfig/common/extension-mappings/mime-mappings',

Associate file extension with air app on Android
Hi,
I am trying to associate a file extension with my air app on Android. My goal is to be able to start my app by clicking on a file with a specific file type from either a file manager or mail app. I have found a solution that in theory would work in native, but does not with air somehow.
In the .xml-file for the app, under the <android> tag I have written:
<activity>
<intent-filter>
<action android:name="android.intent.action.MAIN" />
<category android:name="android.intent.category.LAUNCHER" />
<category android:name="android.intent.category.DEFAULT" />
<category android:name="android.intent.category.BROWSABLE" />
<data android:scheme="file" />
<data android:pathPattern=".*\\.csml" />
<data android:host="*" />
</intent-filter>
</activity>
Does anyone have an idea how this could be solved?
Thanks in advance
JensIf it works in a native app, it should also work in an AIR app in this case. Can you verify that it does work in a native app?

File association with JWS and windows
Hi,
We are moving all our applications over to JWS from install anywhere. One final hurdle we have is the requirement to associate a file extension with a given JWS application.
e.g a double clicking a .foo file will launch JWS application MYJWSFooApp.
As install anywhere defines the install directory and exe file this is possible. Has anyone managed it with JWS ?
Thanks
ChrisYes - you can do so with the new association feature in Java Web Start 1.5
Basically you specific the file ext and/or mime-type that you want to associate with in the jnlp file; and when javawebstart launch the application, it will prompt you to see if you want to create the association.
Refer to the JNLP spec changes in Java Web Start 1.5 for more details:
http://jcp.org/aboutJava/communityprocess/maintenance/jsr056/jnlp_spec.html#4756982
You can download J2SE 1.5-beta (which includes javawebstart) now and give it a try!

I developed a Flash file (SWF) with a light blue start button, placed it on a web server then went to the URL using Firefox (3.6.8). Later I updated the SWF (changed the button to dark blue), replaced the SWF on the web server, opened Firefox and used Tools/Clear Recent History... to clear the cache. Then when I went to the URL to test the replaced SWF it clearly opened the previous version (light blue button). How can that happen if the previous version no longer exists on the web server? Firefox can only be opening the file from its cache, so why is the file still there if I just cleared the cache?

I had the identical issue with iPhone config Utility on windows 7 64bit.
A virtual macOS on the same machine didn't have a problem, windows iTunes didnt have a problem. Just a glitch with ICU on windows
I tried everything you did and the only thing that fixed it was to change the appID or app name (I forget which I did).
I don't know where that old app data is stored on the machine, but I deleted all apps, uninstalled/reinstalled ICU and it still would populate and install the old ipa.
I also still periodically get weird errors/glitches deploying to iOS on windows.
It's like some days I need to deploy with ICU, sometimes iTunes, sometimes I need to run the VM mac... SOO frustrating.
It always works one way or another, so the app itself is always fine.
I guess I really need to look into that new direct deployment option... -
Associating file types with an executable
I would like to be able to associate a file type with my executable,
and have a specific file load into my executable when that file is
double clicked (similar to how Excel opens an xls file when that xls
file is double clicked). Is there any way to do this in labview? The
file is a TDMS file.
Thanks,
RodrigoYou should be able to do this with the application->app.arguments property.
This property gives you the command line arguments (like in c the args[] on the main function).
This returns a string array, when you use an open with or drag a doc into your build (check the pass command line arguments under the advanced builds options page) this property will return a string array, the second element is the path to the doccument. In the beginning of your processor/display exe check if this is a valid file and execute the code as desigend. A state machine architecture is nice fvor this, add a stat called check command line and if this is valid jump into your processing state, otherwise run your program as expected. You can retrofit any processing application with this approach. As for locking the associations, you can usually do this by giving your docs a unique extension (dont use an existing extension like .txt, .exe, .vi ...) Click open with, browse for your application, after select always use this application.
This has worked for me in the past.

Load SWF file in main SWF with parameters
Hello everybody,
I recently got a new flash Application which is a Photo Gallery.
This App is made of multiple folders (source files), a FLA file, a SWF with its javascript SWFObject and an Html page which instantiate this App with some parameters (size, config file path, ...).
It needs an XML file to find all the Photos it displays, to do it I need to configure my application in the HTML Page and give it the "xml_path" :
var so = new SWFObject("index.swf", "gallery", "249", "249", "10", "#111111");
so.addVariable("xml_path","load/config.xml"); // this line is adding the path to the xml file make sure that it's name is xml_path
so.addParam("allowfullscreen","true");
so.write("flashcontent");
By the way, I have a second application, the WebSite, which have to display the Gallery SWF in its "Gallery" page.
Here is how I do it at the moment (in ActionScript3) :
var swfRequest:URLRequest = new URLRequest("C:/......../Galerie/index.swf");
var swfLoader:Loader = new Loader();
//Charge le SWF Galerie dans le SWF Site
swfLoader.load(swfRequest, context);
container1.addChild(swfLoader);
//Positionne le SWF
swfLoader.x=10;
swfLoader.y=120;
It successfully loads the Gallery application but It shows an error telling me it doesn't find the XML configuration file... In the HTML file I simply had to write the "so.addVariable("xml_path","load/config.xml");" to tell where the XML file is...
So, my question is : How can I integrate my SWF application giving it some parameters like above, in Action Script 3?
Thank you ,
PatrickNo, nothing with HTML.
I have 2 SWF applications. One is the Gallery, and the second is my Main Page.
My Main Page must integrate the Gallery module in one of its page.
The problem is when I try to integrate it, I think I must give de future loaded SWF some parameters like this :
(My Main SWF loading in HTML)
var so = new SWFObject("WebSite.swf", "flashcontent", "520", "700", "10", "#111111");
so.addParam("allowfullscreen","true");
so.addParam("allowScriptAccess","always");
so.addParam("menu","false");
so.addParam("wmode","opaque");
so.addParam("bgcolor","#000000");
so.setAttribute("id","flash");
so.write("flashcontent");
It was for the Main App. For my Gallery SWF I had to load it like this (in HTML) :
var so = new SWFObject("Gallerie.swf", "gallery", "249", "249", "10", "#111111");
so.addVariable("xml_path","Galerie/config.xml"); // this line is adding the path to the xml file make sure that it's name is xml_path
so.addParam("allowfullscreen","true");
so.write("flashcontent");
So at the beginning I had 2 different projects with an HTML page for each.
Now I wan't to directly integrate the Gallery SWF into the Main SWF. And as you have seen I must give it some parameters such as the "xml_path" and "allowfullscreen". This must be done in ActionScript 3 and I don't know how...
I think I have to use FlashVars but I don't know how. As I said before, I have tried using the loaderinfo.parameters, but it is in read-only...
Do you have an idea of how I can make it work ? -
Open in same window and clean cache from swf + html file generate with InDesign CS5
Hi,
1)
I have a Indesign web file exported to swf + html.
In my document I have a button that point to url (this url is html file of a second Indesign swf + html).
When I click on button, the url was find an open in another window.
Is it possible to open this second url in the same window?
If yes How.
I think this information is in the swf file and not in html.(How modify the swf code?)
2)
How to clean the cache when you reload the url? (in the html generate file)
I'will very please if somebody of you could help me. it's Important for me.
Regards
PhilippeOkay, I found the code but I can't get it to work locally. If you have a web server maybe you can upload the files (swf and html) after you Publish them:
import flash.net.URLRequest;
import flash.events.MouseEvent;
var myURL:URLRequest = new URLRequest ("http://www.google.com");
testlink.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, clickText);
function clickText(myevent:MouseEvent):void {
navigateToURL(myURL, "_self");
you have to have on the stage a link element called "testlink" (see the code above) which would be a Movie Clip with the label testlink. It can be anything from InDesign: a button, a rectangle, a circle, a graphic, you get the idea. Just select that object in Flash and label it testlink or anything you choose but if you change the name from testlink also change the name in the code snippet where the line "addEventListener" is.
