JFileChooser-how to execute a file

Hello everyone
i am a newbee in Java and i have a small problem with
the JFileChooser. Actually i create one, set the
filters and i just
can't figure out how the file i choose will execute.
For example
i want to choose a .doc or a .bat file and make them
open (run) just
like in Windows. My GUI role is just to manipulate
(open, delete etc.) diffirent kinds of files. An
example of code opening something like .bat or .pdf
would be usefull. Thanks a lot!I'm pretty sure JFileChooser allows you to select a file from your system, but it doesn't write, read, save, etc. (basically, do anything with it).
You'd have to write code to run the files yourself- so it's not a problem with JFileChooser, it's just the way JFileChooser is.

You might improve your chances of getting help if you do two things:
1) Explain what "not working" means.
2) ChangeSystem.out.println(IOEx); to IOEx.printStackTrace(); (in the eventhat is in fact related to "not working").

How to execute .sql file in Stored Procedure?

Hi,
I have an urgent requirement, where i have to execute .sql file form Stored Procedure.
This .sql file will have set of update statement. I need to pass value to this update statement.
Kindly please help me.
Regards,
Irfan

This is required as part of Data Migration where i have to do 100 of table's update. Each time update table will defer, so its better to have in separate script file (.sql). Can u paste some sample/syntax to exceute .sql file from stored procedure. I am new to this PL/SQL.
How have you determined that it's "better" to have seperate scripts? I assume you mean the table name will "differ" (and not "defer" - I assume that's just because English isn't your first language? no problem - I think I understand what you're asking).
So what I think you're asking is that you have dynamic table names but each table needs to be updated in the same way?
Question: Why do you have tables with different names that all need the same process doing to them?
Assuming it's a valid requirement (and 99% of the time doing dynamic coding implies it's not).... you could use dynamic code, rather than 'scripts'...
e.g.
create procedure update_table(tbl_name varchar2) is
begin
execute immediate 'update '||tbl_name||' set lastupdate = null';
end;
As you haven't bothered to provide a database version, any example code/data or explanation of what you're actually doing, you're not going to get any detailed answer. Please do take the time to read the FAQ and post appropriate details so people can help you.

public class Executeexe {

How to execute .sql file

hi,
i want to execute .sql files in sql plus from a fixed location whether it may be network location or from system drive. so that i can use it from other computers when i will be working on different pc.
so please tell me for network location solution and from drive. by default it fetch from BIN directory
i am using oracle 10g.
thanks

Hi FRNzzz!! wrote:
if the .sql files are placed on some network place then also i just need to put the path of that directory ? Sure. You can either set up a desktop shortcut for SQL*Plus using the remote folder as the "Start in" location, or (what I usually do) drag the script file into your SQL*Plus window.

How to execute .sql file using ODI

Hi All,
I need to execute .sql file using ODI.
I tried @{path}{file} command in ODI procedure selecting oracle technology.but it is failing.
Do any one have any other idea to execute .sql file.
Thanks in advance

Ohk...I think you can try creating batch file(.bat) if its Windows & call that from ODIOSCommand.
The bat file should contain scripts which call .sql file using sqlplus & there you can use @{path}{file} format.
See if this helps.

How to execute jar file

Dear all,
1. I am trying to import a .jar file and execute (run) in eclipse. I know it can be done from command window by java -jar z.jar . But I am supposed to do it in eclipse . I would appreciate your help.
2. jar files are supposed to be executable. But in my premium window vista as well as in XP it doesnot run by double click though I have given the class path. How can it be done?

jar files are supposed to be executable.Only if you have a file association for the extension.
Presumably when you double-click the .jar file, Windows pops up the "Open With" dialog. Select from the list or click Browse... and navigate to java.exe (javaw.exe if you are only going to run GUI applications) in the jre/bin folder. Select "Always use the selected program to open this kind of file" and optionally enter a description for the file type before clicking OK.
Note that a console application opened in this way may flash the console window and terminate i.e. the console will NOT remain open after the application dies.
I don't use Eclipse so I can't help on your other question.
