List all files in a folder

Hi,
I am new to Director.
I am using Director to record/save/ listen to audio files.
I want to populate a list with all the files in a given
folder.
Anyone know how to do this in Director?
Thanks

> You could use the built-in getNthFilenameInFolder()
I could have been more specific:
on mGetFileList aPath
tList = []
repeat with f = 1 to the maxInteger
tFilename = getNthFilenameInFolder(aPath, f)
if tFilename = EMPTY then exit repeat
tList.append(tFilename)
end repeat
return tList
end
And call it with:
lFiles = mGetFileList(_movie.path)
However, the above will also list folders

How to Read all files inside resource Folder inside Jar?

I have a Jar file,,,, The program reads for resource files in the resource folder inside the Jar. I want my program to read all files inside this folder without knowing the names or the number of files in the folder.
I am using this to make an Applet easy to be updated with spicific files. I just want to add a file inside the resource folder and Jar the program and automatically the program reads what ever is in there!!
I used the File class to get all file names inside the resource folder. it works fine before Jarring the program. After I jar I recieve a URI not Herarichy Exception!!
File fold=new java.io.File(getClass().getResource(folder).toURI());
String[] files=fold.list();
I hope the question is clear!!

How to get the directory and jar file that you class resides in:
// returns path and jarfile (ex: /home/mydir/my.jar)
public String getJarfileName()
        // Get the location of the jar file and the jar file name
        java.net.URL outputURL = YourClass.class.getProtectionDomain().getCodeSource().getLocation();
        String outputString = outputURL.toString();
        String[] parseString;
        int index1 = outputString.indexOf(":");
        int index2 = outputString.lastIndexOf(":");
        if (index1!=index2) // Windows/DOS uses C: naming convention
           parseString = outputString.split("file:/");
        else
           parseString = outputString.split("file:");
        String jarFilename = parseString[1];
       return jarFilename;
}If your my.jar was in /home/mydir, it will store "/home/mydir/my.jar" in jarFilename.
note: getLocation returns "file:/C:/home/mydir/my.jar" for Windows/DOS and "file:/home/mydir/my.jar" for windows, thus why I look for the first and last index of the colon so I can correctly split the string.
If you want to grab a file in the jar file and get an InputStream, do the following:
import java.io.*;
import java.util.Enumeration;
// jar stuff
import java.util.jar.*;
import java.util.zip.ZipEntry;
public class Jaris
   private JarFile jf;
   public Jaris(String jarFilename) throws Exception
       try
                       jf = new JarFile(jarFilename);
       catch (Exception e)
            jf=null;
            throw(e);
   public InputStream getInputStream(String matchString) throws Exception
       ZipEntry ze=null;
       try
          Enumeration resources = jf.entries();
          while ( resources.hasMoreElements() )
             JarEntry je = (JarEntry) resources.nextElement();
             // find a file that matches this string from anywhere in my jar file
             if ( je.getName().matches(".*\\"+matchString) )
                String filename=je.getName();
                ze=jf.getEntry(filename);
      catch (Exception e)
         throw(e);
      InputStream is = jf.getInputStream(ze);
      return is;
   // for testing the Jaris methods
   public static void main(String[] args)
      try
           String jarFilename=getJarfileName();
           Jaris jis = new Jaris(jarFilename); // this is the string we got from the other method listed above
           InputStream is=jis.getInputStream("myfile.txt"); // can be used for xml, xsl, etc
      catch (Exception e)
         // this is just a test, so we'll ignore the exception
}Happy coding! :)

Printing a list of files in a folder

Is it possible to print a list of files in a folder?

Thanks for all your work-arounds. Here's a comparison which might be useful for others:
• Copying and pasting into a text file or word processor gave me a list of the titles;
• Dragging onto a printer in the dock gave me title, size and date; a little difficult to read across the lines as they are spaced across the whole width of my A4 page;
•Print Window (free version) gives a printout of the information in the window that you choose. The lines are quite widely spaced which makes it legible, but means it takes a lot of pages for a big folder;
• Print Window Advanced ($20) allows you to out put as a file, so you can design a format that suits you. I use Excel a lot for these kinds of tasks so this suits me very well. You can also print our a format for cd covers which—useful for archiving.

Convert list of files in a folder to text?

Is there an easy way to convert the list of files in a folder into a text document? In other words I would like to create a text list of the names of all the files in a given folder - just the individual file names, not the entire path of each file.
Any ideas? Seems like there should be some simple way to do this.
Thanx!

If you copy the desired items in a Finder window and do a *Paste and match Style* into a TextEdit document, the file names will be pasted in. If you have TextWrangler (or BBEdit), dragging a folder into a document will give also you a list of the contents.

[Solved] Foreach loop that loops over all files in a folder does not consider first file found

Hello,
I have a foreach loop in SSIS (as part of Visual Studio 10 and with SQL Server 2012).
It loops over all files in a folder (ForEach File Enumerator).
I set the folder: OK
Traverse Sub folders: OK
I have set up a Variable in Variable Mappings called FileName so it shows User::FileName: OK
Index of variable is 0: OK
It almost works ok. Except that the first file it finds is never considered.
I set a breakpoint then and the first file it finds, is shown in black in the watch variable window. All subsequent files found are shown in red font. When I change the names of the files so another file is the first file found then it skips the other one
which now is the first file.
What is going on here? Why does SSIS skip the first file it finds in a foreach file loop?
Any suggestions highly appreciated.
Thank you
Andi

"red font - interesting, any example to show us (image)
It would be interesting to share with us whether you use any file masks or expressions.

It appears a variable value turns red when it changes between breakpoints. It started black for the first value (the first file, obtained BEFORE the execution reached the breakpoint), and then turned red. I was able to reproduce this behavior on a test environment.
However, it did not skip any files.
OP, please set up the test shown in the image below. Create a breakpoint in the sequence container for the "OnPreExecute" event.

10.6.4: how to unlock all files in a folder

hi,
how do you unlock all files inside a folder?
thank you..

thank you.. (I wonder why you can't just do it by getting info on the folder, then saying, unlock all files inside.. (u can do like that in windows) this is always more practical than having to select all files (and accidentally opening them, or something...-) in windows you can select a folder and then say, (un)lock all files and and dirs -- and subdirs and files inside -- inside this folder.. can u do something like this in mac os? if not, that's not very good.. (I guess on the mac would need to find unix commands for doing something like this..)
they really need to consider this for future versions, this is a no-brainer...;-)
thank you..

Has anyone resolved the problems with using TNSFormat?
As is, I want to move to a shared server setup and to do that I want to use TNSFormat and point to a tns entry which is setup for IPC+Shared connection.
But the Oracle Home that has the Oracle HTTP Server (from the companion CD) does not have SQL*net installed and does not seem to understand TNS.
I have TNS_ADMIN setup, I have ORACLE_HOME_LISTENER poiting to the DB Home.
for the OHS home, using "sqlplus login/pw@ipcshared" works, but "tnsping ipcshared" does not, since tnsping does not exist in the OHS home.
I cannot install SQL*Net from the CD1, since it requires a dedicated/new home and does not want to install in the OHS Home.
The only format that works in a dedicated OHS Home setup is ServiceNameFormat.
Any help or input would be very helpful.
Regards
ps. This is a redhat linux setup.

List of files in Windows folder

Hi,
It wanted to know if it is possible to get the liste of file from a folder on the server with PL-SQL
Thanks,

A database is not a flat file system!
What relevance this sentence holds wrt OP's question ? Does "database being a flat file system" really help ? OP is asking for some way to list out files in a folder.

Add all files of one folder to aperture by running a script

HI,
i have a question:
I will make my Aperture Tethered more easy (with my Canon eos 30D) i have coded a script / folder action to do this but: this folder action does not import all pictures (wy ever, i think that the files coming in to fast were not recognized).
Now i will code a script which will include all files of a folder to aperture when it is run.
i will give it a try, and the import does function, but, i don't know how i can tell the script which files it should import (with a folder action its easy, with this line:
on adding folder items to this_folder after receiving these_items
but how to do this without the "on adding folder items" cause that does not happen in the case i will use it.
i'm looking forward to anthers:D
Best Regards
Christoph

yes i tryed this application, and there was the same problem as with my one (i have programmed my based on this application)
but both had the same problem they open on imageadd, but if i take more images in seconds (i think the script is still running => it can't recognize new images) it does not recognize the newly taken images.
and i hope some script that imports all images in the folder will solve the problem.
the more ore less only problem is to tell the application which images to import (like: on run import ALL files)

CDM 4650 / ACNS - List all files in a channel?

Hello,
I am looking for a non-cumbersome way to list all files in a channel. The only way I know of right now is to go to the CDM Admin Page, go to Previewer, and then view the channel, which is split among many pages and has much extraneous information I don't care about -- I just want the filename in the channel for any given channel.
I was given a way to do this by Cisco which doesn't work, so I was looking for any other solutions. Thanks!

I have not seen a non-cumbersome way to do this. You say that a Cisco engineer gave you a way to do it but it did not work. You should contact them to let them know it did not work and maybe they can work with you to get it to work.
