Launching an external file from jsfl script

I've written a jsfl script which exports the frames of a
Flash movie as pngs. I've also written a Photoshop .jsx script
which takes the pngs and processes them. I was wondering if there
was a command available in jsfl that could launch the .jsx file
once the Flash process was finished?
Cheers guys!

mburgos,
Take a look at this doc for starters:
http://download-east.oracle.com/docs/cd/B31036_01/doc/appdev.22/b28839/up_dn_files.htm
Unless the end users have mapped drives to those documents, that's not going to work. Is this path just a pointer to the file on the server (if so, why not a BFILE)?

  • Launch external files from a presentation

    preparing a long presentation with many external files (of many kinds: swf, quicktime, html, etc) as examples.
    I am trying NOT to stop the keynote, go thru the finder launching different files in front of the audience.
    I would much prefer if i can use a button inside my presentation to launch that specific file.
    Any ideas? 3rd party plug ins? automator script?

    Keynote has no scripting capabilities what so ever :/.
    Obviously some of the file types you describe can be placed into the Keynote presentation itself. QT, Insert Menu> Webview for web page inside presentation; with textbox selected... Insert menu >Text Hyperlink > Webpage to change to browser and link to url. Email message?! Not files as such though.
    I'm sure you could write an applescript to run in parallel to the presentation to handle all the file launching in a sequence for you or even with a list of buttons if you wanted to get really serious with UI builder.
    Flash support was dropped as a consequence of changes to QT. Flash support inside QT was discontinued (security?).

  • Launch External Files from SSRS

    I have a report that will list the names of files that are attached to this report in the database.  I would like to include the list of files from the database and allow the users to click or double click the file name and have the file load. 
    Is there a way for SSRS to do this?  The files can be in multiple formats, and in the project that adds the files we can use:
    System.Diagnostics.Process.Start(filepath)
    And it will launch the correct process to view the files.  I have stored the the file itself in an image column, and I also have the full path and the file name in columns as well so I could create a dataset to retrieve the file names and show them
    on the report.
    Anyone have any suggestions?
    Thanks.

    Hi katghoti,
    If I understand correctly, you want to embed external files (word, pdf, image etc.) into a report in Reporting Services. If in this scenario, I suggest that you can use the following two methods to achieve your requirement:
    Embed these files into database.
        1) Use the SQL commands to embed these files in database as the image data.
        2) Use the .net language (C#, VB) to convert this data into the image.
        3) Use the image control to show these images, which are files embedded in database.
    Reference:
    How to embed a pdf document in Reporting Services
    Upload these files in the report server, access them using URL.
        1) We can upload these files in the report manager.
        2) Adding hyperlinks to reports to link to these files stored on the report server.
    Reference:

    Hope this helps.

  • How can I write to a (external)file from a stored procedure

    I want to write some data to a (external) file. I have it working with the function UTL_FILE.
    My problem is I want to write to a file on a mapped drive (so a drive on a different machine). This is not working.
    Does anyone know a way to build this.
    Please send your responses to [email protected]
    Many thanks,
    Alex Nagtegaal

    an extraction out of expert one-on-one from Thomas Kyte
    <quote>
    when an oracle istance is created the services that support it are setup to 'log on as' the system (or operating system) account, this account has very few privileges and no acces to Window NT Domains. To access another Windows NT machine the OracleServiceXXXX must be setup to logon to the appropriate Windows NT Domain as a user who has acces to the required location for UTL_FILE.
    To change the default logon for the Oracle services go to (in Windows NT):
    Control Panel | Services | OracleServiceXXXX | startup | log on as; (where XXXX is the instance name)
    In Windows 2000, this would be:
    Control Panel | Administrative Tools | Services | OracleServiceXXX | Properties | Log on tab; (again XXXX is the instance name)
    Choose the This Account radio button, and then complete the appropriate domain login information. ONce the services have been setup as a user with the appropriate privileges, ther are two options dfor setting UTL_FILE_DIR:
    * Mapped Dirve: To use a mapped drive, the user that the service starts as must have setup a drive to match UTL_FILE_DIR and be logged onto the server when UTL_FILE is in use.
    * Universal Naming Convention: UNC is preferable to Mapped Drives because it does not require anyone to be logged on and utl_file_dir should be set to a name in the form \\<machine name>\<share name>\<path>
    You will of course need to stop and restart Oracle after changing the properties of the service.

  • How run a batch file from VBS script?

    I have written a script in which I create a batch file that I want to run. Running it from the Start menu with "Run..." works fine but I would like to do it automatically from the script. I can't find a command that works but I am a beginner, so I'm hoping someone's got a solution?!

    Hi again!
    Thank you for your help but I've just discovered that my problem probably doesn't have to do with the way that I call for the batch file. It's more like this:
    The batch file is run but it only does its job some of the times... The batch contains one name of a converter application (Convert.exe) and the names of some databases and files. I've been told that the conversion should work if Convert.exe is located in the same folder as the files. Which it also does, if I run the batch from "Run..." but not from my code.
    I had it working for a while when I had fiddled (as I said, I'm a beginner at this) with setting some drives, such as userDrv and changing some paths in the script settings. Since I didn't really know what I was doing though, I didn't save these settings when closing down DIAdem and now it's not working again. When it worked, it only worked for the file where my .VBS was saved. The point of the program is to convert files in different folders so that wasn't enough.
    Just for clearity: I can't write the name as "C:\My Folder..." because the batch file name and the folder it is situated in is different each time so I have variables for the path and the batch, but that part seems to work. (Call ExtProgram(batFilename_) where batFilename_ includes the path).  
    So I guess what I need to understand is how the different drives work or maybe I need to somehow change my path settings?

    I have seen this happen for two reasons.
    One reason is that a vary header is sent by the Web server. This can happen for a number of reasons. Lets say you are dynimically generating your JNLP file with PHP, and you call session_start() in the jnlp this will send some headers which cause IE not to properly cache the JNLP file. You probably want to send a send a few other headers in the jsp which generates your jnlp.
    However since this behavior is happening some times and some times not. My guess is that your IE cache is close to full or need so be increased in size.

    and http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.5.0/docs/guide/javaws/developersguide/faq.html#220
    session tracking sends no cache directive to i.e. which hoses it

  • Loading External Files From SWF Root

    Hi All,
    I do not know anything about flash.  I have been provided with some flash movies/apps to include in a web design that I am doing.  These flash movies load an external xml file.
    This is failing.
    The problem appears to be that when the flash movie goes to load the file using a relative directory path, it starts at the very root of the web directory, where the main jsp file is, instead of the where the .swf file is located.
    For example, say my website is www.mywebsite.com/mysite.jsp and I have stored the flash in a directory similar to /mywebsite.com/flash/movie1/movie1.swf.
    When the movie goes to play, I am getting a 404 error in firebug because the flash movie is trying to load the external xml from /mywebsite.com/file.xml instead of /mywebsite.com/flash/movie1/file.xml.
    How can this be corrected?  Is there a way for the flash application to use the .swf root directory instead of the .jsp file root directory?
    I hope this made sense.  Good chance it doesn't. 

    When you load the Flash file into a web page, the web page becomes its frame of reference for loading other content.  So to fix this situation you should either relocate things to where the Flash file lives in the same directory as the web page that loads it, or retarget the files that the Flash file is loading as if it were in the web page's folder (using absolute paths should guarantee correct targeting).

  • Lauching an external file from a JSP

    HI ALL
    I have a compiled HTML help file, which i would like to open from a web page through a simple hyperlink, but if provide it as a link the save it/open from location dialog box comes up. I dont want that to happen, is there anyway to directly launch that file from a JSP.
    Help is sincerely appreciated.

    If the .chm file contains HTML, and you don't want to rename the extension .html, you can write a simple JSP that opens the .chm file, and writes the contents out to the HttpServletResponse's PrintWriter object.
    Let me know if you want to see some code examples.

  • Launch an external file using Java

    I have an app that creates an .rtf file, I want to be able to open it up once it's created. How do I launch the file from within the app if I have the filepath?

    I tried the following with an .rtf file in the same directory,
    import java.io.*;
    public class Test {
       public static void main(String[] args) {
          Runtime run = Runtime.getRuntime();
          try {
             run.exec("temp.rtf");
          } catch (Exception e) {
             e.printStackTrace();
    }But I get a message telling me that temp.rtf is not a valid Win32 application. I don't want to specify which program the file opens with, I'd like it to launch with the os default as if I double-clicked the file.
    edit: is there a way I can get the exe that the system has associated with the rtf extension?

  • Launching various external applications from a java application

    I have several java.io.File objects displayed in my swing application. When the user double clicks any of these objects, I want to launch the external application associated with the file type.
    For eg. if the user double clicks on "one.pdf", I want to launch Adobe Acrobat to view that file. I dont want to hard code application and file extension associations, rather I want to launch whatever it is that the underlying OS would launch given a double click on a certain file type.
    Anshuman Taneja.

    Let me answer my own question. Did not know the solution would be this direct. On the flip side, this is not a cross platform solution, and perhaps, there isnt any cross platform solution.
    (in the code below, file is a java.io.File object.)
    // if the file is an "exe", then it is launched like this
    if(file.getName().indexOf(".exe") > 0 )
    Runtime.getRuntime().exec("rundll32" + " " +
    "url.dll,FileProtocolHandler" + " " + file.getName());
    // for files which are not applications themselves,
    // this will launch the application windows would've launched to open the file
    else
    Runtime.getRuntime().exec(new String[]
    {"rundll32", "url.dll,FileProtocolHandler",
    "file:///" + file.getAbsoluteFile()});

  • Trouble launching Illustrator CC files from Adobe Bridge

    Double clicking in Bridge does not work after a few sucessful "opens". Need to restart Ai CC to resolve. Works ok for a few opens then reverts back.
    Just started happening.
    Anyone else havingthis issue?

    Is this something that has changed from CS6 to CC?
    No, you either are trying to copy from a disk that does not allow you to copy or you don't have the correct admin permission for read write in Finder.
    Check the folder or disk with cmd + i (get info) and at the bottom check if you have the correct read and write permissions
    But the easiest way to copy to a folder on your system is opening the folder panel in Bridge with the wanted destination folder in view and drag and drop (with option pressed for copy if you are on the same disk) the file from the content panel to that folder.
