Internationalization support for File Names

I want to know does it make sense to provide multilingual support for File Names. Say, I have a file called PurchaseOrder.pdf and it will be sent to users as an email attachment. We can localize the file name(for example, in Chinese: 订单.pdf).
But I want to know whether it is a standard to localize the file name. If not, should it be given in English, no matter which locale the user is using.
Thanks in advance

... hopefully you will not have to send another document to the same deliverer the very same day. Even if you add the minutes, a date tells you nothing about the contents. This is no problem as long as I receive nothing but purchase confirmations from you. But as a customer I will receive both sales confirmations and invoices, and then I think it's nice to see what the document is about.
By the way, a person working in an international trading company is supposed nowadays to understand the English words "purchase, sale and invoice", isn't it? Maybe in 50 or 100 years from now Chinese will be the lingua franca. So be prepared for a change ;-)

Ver.9.5 The volume for file name cannot be found

HI,
My work Mac Book pro was recently upgraded to Mavericks from 10.6.8, with iPhoto 11 (ver. 9.5) also an included upgrade. One album of photos is no longer accesible - clicking on each thumbnail provokes the following window "The volume for <file name> cannot be found. The "Try again" option doesn't work, and the alternative, which is to use the finder to locate the file is useless, as the files are buried in a library spare bundle. When I copy the file name, and search on the volume with the library via finder, it pulls up tiny thumbnail size files.
I have a primary iphoto library on a dedicated USB external drive, which I back up not everytime I update the library (200 gbs spare bundle over USB2!), but regularly. I fear these recently imported files, have not been backed up before up erasing cards, and upgrading system OS, have gone.
Is there any way of getting into the library via finder, or elsewhere in iphoto to refind the original master files which are in there somewhere? These files opened perfectly in iphoto before the recent upgrade.

Thanks for the fast response. I've followed your directions and can't find the file in there, in Masters, Originals, or Modified folders. I found files in Thumbnails folder though. Some of the files from the same event are fine, so its not consistent. I'm also noticing that another file in the event has a totally blurred preview (Its a 24mbs Jpg from a Nikon D800) - not sure if this is at all connected.
The positive news is that my NeoFinder database of drives indicates I should have the 'missing' files on another computer in the office, but I'm still scratching my head on this.

" the volume for (file name) cannot be found. Insert the disk or connect to the server volume and wait for it to appear on the desktop, then try again."

I get an error message in iPhoto when I click on thumbnails of pictures in certain albums. It reads 'the volume for "(file name)" cannot be found. Insert the disk or connect to the server volume and wait for it to appear on the desktop, then try again.' What does this mean and how do I fix it?

It means that you imported the files in Referenced mode and have now remvoed them from the Mac. Put the disk or card back.

Report Script : Parameter for file name?

hi all,
I am using a report script to generate a text file with budget data. This works fine in AAS console but I am automating this process by usning an ESSCMD and batch script.
tha batch script will call the ESSCMD script which in turn executes the follwoing command
RUNREPT 2 "RepScripName" "c:\Otputfile.txt"
Now here I am hard coding the Output file name and location.But my requirement is that when I run the script it should prompt for file name and location.
Any Idea on this
Thanks

Another solution I have tried is simply writing a small VB app that has a dialog that allows you to type in a file name or even navigate a file system directory. If I understand you correctly, you just want to be able to output the file anywhere you want. This works well and you can add more features to, just depends on if it is worth the effort. Other wise you can just write MXL and supply your script with position variables. You just need to type it in and hope you type typed it in correctly. Good luck, there are several ways to accomplish this.

JDBC 10g - Support for TNS name entries

Hello,
I found the following statement:
JDBC-Thin support for TNSNAMES.ORA Lookup: similar to JDBC-OCI, both client-side and server-side JDBC-Thin can now read the local TNSNAMES.ORA file to resolve service name or TNS alias. Consequently Java in the database will also be in position to reference external Oracle database, using service name. See the JDBC documentation for more details.
in the Oracle white paper "What’s New for Java DB, JDBC, and Database Web Services in Oracle Database 10g". However, I have found several statments/notes in the accompanying 10g JDBC documentation that appear to directly contradict the statement above. For example, the following note:
Note:
Because the JDBC Thin driver can be used in applets that do not depend on an Oracle client installation, you cannot use a TNSNAMES entry to set up a Thin driver connection.
Does anybody know if the JDBC Thin driver supports connection via a TNSNAMES entry? If so, can you direct me to the documentation on how to use it.
FYI, I have managed to establish a connection using a TNS alias and JDBC-OCI as follows:
OracleDataSource ods = new OracleDataSource();
ods.setTNSEntryName("MyTNSAlias");
ods.setUser("scott");
ods.setPassword("tiger");
ods.setDriverType("oci8");
Connection conn = ods.getConnection();
However, if I set driver type to "thin" instead of "oci8", I get the following error:
Exception in thread "main" java.sql.SQLException: Io exception: SO Exception was generated

Thanks in advance.

Hi,
I wrote the white paper in question and am in position to confirm that in 10.2, JDBC-Thin does indeed support tnsnames.ora; you need to specify the location (i.e., directory) of the tnsnames.ora file in the oracle.net.tns.admin system property
java -Doracle.net.tns_admin=$ORACLE_HOME/network/admini have working examples in my book.
I'll have it fixed in the online doc, our printed doc is sometimes out of sync.

Reading from a file. How to ask the user for file name at run time????

I have the code to read from a file but my problem is how to prompt the user for the file name at run time.
import java.io.File;
import java.io.FileNotFoundException;
import java.util.InputMismatchException;
import java.util.Scanner;
public class FileRead {
    public static void main(String args[]) {
        Scanner scan = null;
        File file = new File("Results.txt");
        String number;
        try {
            scan = new Scanner(file);
            while (scan.hasNext()){
            number = scan.next();
            System.out.println(number);}
        catch (FileNotFoundException ex1){
            System.out.println("No such file");
        catch (IllegalStateException ex2){
            System.out.println("Did you close the read by mistake");
        catch (InputMismatchException ex){
            System.out.println("File structure incorrect");
        finally{
            scan.close();}
}Any hints would be greatly appreciated. Thank you in advance

I have read through some of the tutorials that you have directed me too and they are very useful, thank you. however there are still a few things that i am not clear about. I am using net beans 5.0 I have placed a text file named Results.txt into the project at the root so the program can view it.
When I use the code that you provided me with, does it matter where the file is, or will it look through everywhere on the hard drive to find a match?
This code compiles but at run time it comes up with this error
run-single:
java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: NamedFile
Exception in thread "main"
Java Result: 1
BUILD SUCCESSFUL (total time: 3 seconds)
import java.util.Scanner;
import java.io.*;
class NamedFileInput
public static void main (String[] args) throws IOException
    int num, square;
    // this Scanner is used to read what the user enters
    Scanner user = new Scanner( System.in );
    String fileName;
    System.out.print("File Name: ");
    fileName = user.nextLine().trim();
    File file = new File( fileName );     // create a File object
    // this Scanner is used to read from the file
    Scanner scan = new Scanner( file );
    while( scan.hasNextInt() )   // is there more data to process?
      num = scan.nextInt();
      square = num * num ;
      System.out.println("The square of " + num + " is " + square);
}his is the code that i used. It is the same as the code you posted for me (on chapter 23 I/O using Scanner and PrintStream) Sorry im just really stuck on this!!

Automator script search document for file name, and rename file to date

Hi all,
I'm having a hard time with Automator... and I can't figure out how it's done!
Searched the web for it a couple of times, spend hours with Automator already, but I guess my need is random!
The thing is:
I got a folder with 1066 files, all the files has random names.....
I got a document (now it's html, but can convert it to PDF or txt or so ever....) with the coressponding random file names in the html.... some words before that there is the date the photo was taken in this format: 08/25/11
Now I want somehow make automator search that folder each filename... match it in the document with the filename, and rename the files in the folder to the date the photo's were taken.... and that for all 1066 files.....
anybody a great idea? Some help? I'm a real newby at Automator scrips!
thanks

Have you considered A Better Finder Rename 9?
A Better Finder Rename 9: The Batch File Renamer for Mac OS X
Otherwise, what you propose seems to be rather like carving the Pieta using a plastic butter knife. But, if you want, here's one example of a rough algorithm to start ...
* translate the HTML to ASCII text in this format: filename (date)
* read one line at a time from the ASCII file
* for each line, search the folder for the file
* rename the file according to the (date)
BTW, you might avoid a strict renaming according to just the date.
Best luck with this project.

Support for file tag in XSLT to create dynamic pages - Gallery type 'Flash'

Based on my understanding, when you export, LR Web engine looks for transformer.xslt by default if the gallery type is HTML. It allows to use <file name="outputfilename.html"> tag in this transformer.xslt to create new files. But to my knowledge I don't see the above defaults working if the gallerytype is Flash. Why? I don't understand why LR is restricting the Flash based galleries from creating dynamic output files via XSLT. I tried setting xmlTransformer file name to transformer.xslt in galleryInfo.lrweb and leaving xmlPath to blank but this doesn't seem to work. If I give some dummy XML name, it creates the xml in that name, but ignores creating new files I mentioned in the <file> tag in xslt. Can someone please explain if there are any alternates or if possibly fixed in the next release ?

Are you the one who commented out the code you're looking for ?//String desc = StringFactory.getString(attributes.getValue("desc"));You just have to modify you AttributeObject class to hold a new field : String description. And then, it's up to you to create a new constructor or a new setter method.
Btw, this is not a Swing related question.

Bug v4.0 - no input field for file name in export dialog

Hello,
I run a query, right click in the result grid and choose "Export". There is no input field to provide a file name. I can only export to the default file.
Version 4.0.0.13 on XP
Edit: Seems to be an issue with the settings (maybe those migrated from 3.2.2). When I install without migrating settings I get the full dialog. I will try some combinations and update this post.
Edit: I installed again without migration my settings. When I set the preferences manually I cannot reproduce the bug. Maybe some bug in the import for the preferences? Maybe it only happens on German XPs.

Split PDF and use field name for file name

I have a pdf file with 333 pages that I will be splitting into 333 separate pfd files. Each file needs a specific name that corresponds to a number located in the header of each individual page.
Splitting the pdf is easy, unfortunately I can only use a static name for part of the file name and Adobe assigns the remaining portion with: _Part1.pdf; _Part2.pdf ect.... How can I get the "_Part1" to pull in the number located in the header of each individual page?
I need to have this done before tommarow morning and there is another PDF which will be 555 files after it is split.
Thanks for any help!

Yes,
I also know Profit Center field from R/3.
However as I've mentioned....
I need to ADD the field "Profit Center" in this TAB
I do not even know if this field "Profit center" that I need to ADD is the same field from R/3.
You know....
I found "Profit Center"
screen number: 0200
program name: SAPLCRM_1O_MANAG_UI
structure: ZCRMT_0200_BTX_UI01
field name: ZZCUSTOMER_I0101
data element: ZEEW_DATAELEMENT0101
However...
If I add this field above, the field does not display in the TAB I want. Meaning this field is not working.
For Instance:
In the same TAB (I want to add Profit Center), I have the field with:
- description name field "Services Revenue"
By pressing F1/Tech Info, I have:
screen number: 0200
Program name: SAPLCRM_1O_MANAG_UI
Structure: ZCRMT_0200_BTX_UI01
Field name: ZZCUSTOMER_I0101
Does anyone has any idea to help me outto fimd Profit Center field?

Hi Srinivas
Here iam attaching a sample code in the infopackage level this code is used to select the Current version from TVARV table ..based on the version from variable the data is loaded into the ods..
data: l_idx like sy-tabix.
          read table l_t_range with key
               fieldname = 'FISCPER'.
          l_idx = sy-tabix.
tables tvarv.
data: v_prever(6)   type c,
      v_fiscper(7) type n.
clear tvarv.
select single low
   from tvarv
   into v_prever
where name = 'ZBSK_PREVIOUS_RELEASED_VERSION' and
        type = 'P' and
        numb = '0000'.
concatenate v_prever(4) '0' v_prever+4(2) into v_fiscper.
   concatenate '0' v_prever+4(2) v_prever(4) into v_fiscper.
        l_t_range-low = v_fiscper .
          modify l_t_range index l_idx.
Hope the above code helps you..
let me know in case of any concerns.. and further help needed..
