Placement of application specific property and xml files

I have multiple .jars inside a .ear file. These jars need to values pulled
from a xml file or a properties file. I need this file to reside in one
place and not inside each jar. What is the recommended way of doing so.
thx for any help.

Should the shared jar just contain the xml files or should they also contain
the classes to parse the data and return the results to the call ejb. Also
should I make class-path modifications to this manifest or just the manifest
of the calling ejbs.
thx

Have you tried putting the XML file in a shared .jar? And referencing
the jar using the Class-path entry in the manifest of each EJB's jar.
You should then be able to load the file as a resource.

  • I fouled up; erased library .itl and .xml files; need a little help

    I think I see what I did wrong (my issue relates to this reply post I submitted earlier today >> https://discussions.apple.com/message/16254985#16254985 but I don't think there's any need to go back and read that post to get the gist of my problem).
    So, after knocking around and reading a whole bunch of forum posts and Apple support pubs, I now know I did something dumb.
    Simply put, last night, in the course of attempting to delete from my MacBook Pro the iTunes library file residing there (the one designed to contain actual media files, i.e., music, books, podcasts, etc.), I also deleted the iTunes Library.itl and iTunes Library.xml files.  Yes, doh! is right.
    [BTW, the idea behind deleting the media library on the MBP was because my media files are -- and have been for some time -- located on an external hard drive.  So the good news is I still have all my media.  Of course, the bad news is I lost all playlists and a host of song-specific information and I'm sure a bunch of other stuff that is organized on the iTunes Library.itl file.  (Apple's helpful info sheet on the .itl and .xml files at >> http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1660)]
    So  I opened up iTunes today and there is nothing there, i.e., looks like just opened for the first time ever.  I now know that in the absence of the .itl and .xml files (which I trashed yesterday), iTunes went ahead and created new, empty versions of these files.
    HERE'S THE QUESTION: what should or can i do now to rebuild my library?  My media files still reside on my external HD and there they must stay because there isn't remotely enough room on the MBP hard drive itself.
    I'm just sort of stumped.  And skittish.  I don't want to make another dumb mistake that will make things even worse.  Any ideas?

    Hey, sorry to hear that, but good to know  that you have all your "stuff" and its just a matter of getting it all back together in the right place.  So, I have some ideas why it happened to me and maybe why this happened to you, which may be relevant later, but first I'll first explain how I got out of this jam.
    After much investigating, I finally did a search for .itl files and ended up "finding" one in the Media folder itself, specifically in the Music folder (yeah, should have done this much earlier).  Looking around, I also found the other files and folders that are supposed to be at same directory level as "iTunes Media." 
    At this point, I just moved them back to where they were supposed to be and opened iTunes and, voila, there was my stuff (albeit not quite all of it or exactly as it should be).  Then, after making sure my Media folder was properly identified in Advanced Preferences, I checked the boxes under File -> Library -> Organize Library and iTunes started doing some activity that seemed like it was reorganizing or rechecking the organization (you can see I am no expert here).
    So like I indicated, it wasn't exactly the way it was when I last used iTunes before I had the problems (e.g., various podcasts, books, etc. werent there -- so i just added them into the Library manually, i.e., File -> Add To Library, etc.).
    Anyway, I hope this helps if you haven't already fixed your problem.  If not, I might have some other ideas I came across while still searching for solution to my problem.  Best of luck.

  • Best way to handle .properties and .xml files

    Hi,
    I have an application which contains so many properties and XML files, these are a part of WAR file which we deployed in
    tomcat server. Whenever we make changes to these properties and XML files we redeploy the app and start the server.
    Is there any way we can make sure that these files can take changes without redeploying or starting the server?
    Please clarify.
    Thanks.

    Sure - keep them outside of the war. Pick any directory where you can put them (a directory where the server is allowed to read of of course), load them from that directory in your application. Make sure you can reach that directory through (S)FTP to easily be able to modify them. Then all you need is a way to reload them in the application, should the information be cached.

  • Have itl and xml files on external hd am running home premium. can  no longer access files, am told this is because they were created with a newer version of itunes. also when i try to download 10.3 it wont, just says invalid drive j and for me to try aga

    i am running vista home premium on desktop and vista basic on laptop. have placed my itunes music with .itl and .xml files onto external drive connected to another desktop running vista and can no longer access music on first two mentioned comps only on the one connected to external drive. always am told that the library cant be read because it was created using a newer version of itunes. have tried to download 10.3 but it always tells me that i have and invalid hard drive j and to try again. any ideas?

    Older versions of iTunes cannot read libraries created with newer versions of iTunes. You need to have the same version of iTunes on all your PCs. Is that the case?
    As far as the problem installing iTunes goes, see this article from b noir on dealing with the problem:
    https://discussions.apple.com/thread/2450004
    If you get to the point where you need the Microsoft Installer cleanup utility, you will need more help as it has been withdrawn by Microsoft. but I am hoping the virtual drive trick will work,

  • Forgot to backup itunes library.itl and xml files

    I backup pretty much everything. Unfortunately I forgot about the itunes library datase files, the itubes library.itl and xml files. The hard drive has been repartioned and formated, so it's gone. I do have all the music in the exact same directory structure though. Both versions are Windows 7 x64. I aslo have my iPOD.
    What I want to figure out how to do is import the database into a new install of itunes. So the music and stuff doesn't matter. It's all there in the same set of folders, with the exact same path as before. Is there any way to create the itl and xml files containing the metadata from the iPOD?
    I wouldn't even be all that bummed if I had to let my music import from the hard drive again. I just really really want to import my playlists. That would really suck if I had to type them all in manually from the iPOD. If anyone could point me int he right direction, I would really appreciate it.

    Ok googlers from the future, here is the sultion I used.
    This solution puts everything back to normal with minimal work, but it costs you however much disk space is on your ipod. I downloaded the copytrans suite off the piratebay. Then I used the ipod copy to back up my ipod. This will copy things to folders based on tags. So you have to have a second copy of your music. Once it is backed up remote the itunes library files from the top folder of the itunes library. Start itunes, and then go to import playlist. Then you select the xml file from your ipod backup. This will import the entire library into itunes. When you sync your ipod it will say iit is going to delete everything and reload it, but it doesn't. If there was stuff that was no in the library it would delete it, but there won't be because the library came from your ipod to being with. So it just copies anything to it that wasn't there, if there is anything.
    From that point, when you want to add stuff to your library/ipod, you have to put a copy of the music in the library you made. So all the music you want on your computer and your ipod will take up double space on your hard drive because you have to put a copy in the library folder. Once it is there, you just go to add folder and select your library folder. THis will make it rescan and put the new songs in the database.
    The good part of this is you don't have to do selective ipod loading. You make the selection when you copy to the library folder. So at that point you just sync your ipod making an exact copy.
    That was the best solution for me anyway, with a big library and lots of playlists. I also never use itunes. The sole purpose of having itunes is to load my ipod. My ipod I use daily though. I don't drive anywhere without it connected to my stereo. Being able to select anything in a massive music library from my head unit while driving around is seriously awesome.

  • New PC-do I need to transfer Itunes library files (itl and xml files?)

    Hi gang,
    I followed the Itunes tutorial for Windows and moved my Itunes music library to a EHD as it was filling up my laptop. I left the itl and xml library files on the laptop hard drive as instructed.
    However, this laptop is a work PC and if I change jobs I will need to download a new version of Itunes to the new PC. I know how to import the files from the EHD but my question is the following:
    1. Do I need to back up the itl and xml library files to the EHD before I give back the work PC? It seems likely since they contain info about the playlists.
    2. Once I download Itunes on the new PC would I just copy the library files onto the hard drive or can they remain on the EHD?
    It sounds like (from reading some info from Chris CA) that I need to make a copy of the Itunes folder (which includes the itl and xml files) from the laptop hard drive and put it on the EHD inside the EHD Itunes folder. Then with the new PC load a new version of Itunes and hold the shift key when launching. Then I would select the library from the EHD.
    Is that correct?
    Thanks!
    Any help would be appreciated as I cannot find anything on this in Itunes help or the forum.

    Assuming you start with a standard configuration which is:
    The iTunes folder in My music on your c: drive and all your music in the iTunes Music folder in the iTunes folder on the c: drive.
    Starting from there, with iTunes closed, you copy the iTunes folder to an external drive, this also copies the music in the iTunes Muisc folder.
    To move to a new PC, you install iTunes, then you drag your new iTunes folder to the desktop, then you replace it by copying the iTunes folder from the external drive.
    With this set up you can also run entirely on the EHD if you want to. Just start iTunes with the shift key held down, navigate to the iTunes folder on the external drive an choose iTunes Library.itl. This could be useful if you want to dake the EHD to work.
    If you are not starting from the default position I described, some adjustments would have to be made, but it would need an exact descripition of how your folders are set up at the moment.

  • Thread death and xml files when analyzing large datasets

    i analyze large data sets. for example:

  • Try to do my first XML Schema in SQL Server 2012 Mangement Studio(SSMS2012)-How to execute the xsd and xml files in SSMS2012?

    Hi all,

  • SAX and XML file, how to?

    Hi,
    I'm going to use JAXP and SAX to read my application XML config file.
    But I'm lost, I don't know how to read the elements.
    How does it function, do I have to put in the startElement() method as many "if" as entitys I need to process?
    And how can I guess if an element belongs (is inside) one element or another?
    Example:
    <program>
    <printer id="xx" type="aa">
    <path> /aa/cc </path>
    </printer>
    <source>
    <path> /aa/bb </path>
    </source>
    </program>
    for this XML, how would you code it? this way?
    startElement (String uri, String localName, String qName, Attributes attributes) {
    if (localname.equals("printer")) {
    //get printer attributes
    } else if (localname.equals("source")) {
    //get source attributes
    thanks!

  • How do the itl and xml files work

    Due to some problems I have been having (now solved) I have been trying to get to grips with how these 2 files work.
    I now have a library of 37000 some songs in q:\itunes\itunes music and everything is working fine.
    However when I look in the xml file some song pointers are still to my documents\my music\itunes yet itunes still finds them. How?
    Does itunes look for the location set in edit>preferences>advanced>itunes music folder location first and then check the xml file address if it cannot find them there?
    Also if the songs are in the correct location anyway why is the xml file pointer looking at my documents.
    Does anyone know if this is abnormal? Can anyone explain the logic to me please 'cos to me it ain't logical!!
    Regards,
    Andy.

    I think iTunes must have got in a muddle as a result of the way you transfered your files to the external drive.
    It is important to realise that the iTunes Music folder location as designated in your preferences tells iTunes where to add music in the future. It is quite possible to get in a situation where iTunes looks there for newly added music, but continues to look in the old location for previously added files.
    If the xml file tells you it is accessing files in iTunes iTunes Music on your c: drive, then that is it is telling the truth. However these files are not longer in THE itunes Muisc folder , that is to say the one set in your preferences. All very confusing I am afraid.
    If your file locations get corrected when you play a track, there is something you could try.
    First close iTunes and make a copy of your xml and itl files in case you don't like what happens.
    Now open iTunes and go to you music view and select your entire library with select all.
    Right click in the selection and choose Get Info. Say yes to multimle edits.
    When you see the multipe edit Get Into screen, simply exit with OK, do nothing else. This will force iTunes to reread all your tags which may take a while if your library is large. If I geussed right, it will also update the file locations. Although I have used multiple get into in this way to correct tag into I haven't tried it to correct paths so this is just a guess - it could only possibly work for files that are in the designated iTunes Music folder in the proper place, but iTunes is still pointing to an old loaction where the files no longer exist.

  • Retrieve / Search specific Node from XML File

    Hello,
    i have a question about reading (searching) XML File within PL SQL:
    There is a XML file with following structure:
    <root>
      <Hnode1 attr1="value1" />
      <Hnode2 attr1="value1" />
         <node1_of_Hnode2 id="10" personname="Steven"/>
         <node2_of_Hnode2 id="20" personname="Christian"/>
         <node3_of_Hnode2 id="30" personname="Arnold"/>
      <Hnode2/>
    <root/>How it is possible to filter a node by one of its attribute value. For example:
    I know the id of a person - lets say id =20. In this case i would like to get the whole node (in this case node2_of_Hnode2) to get the personname => "Christian".
    Just like a SELECT statement (WHERE ID = 20)
    Is there a possibility the get this by one command or should it be looped over all Rows of the Document?. Can you please provide an example for me.
    Thank you in advice!

    Database version is 10.Sorry, that's not a version.
    For example :
    SQL> select * from v$version;
    BANNER
    Oracle Database 10g Enterprise Edition Release 10.2.0.5.0 - 64bi
    PL/SQL Release 10.2.0.5.0 - Production
    CORE     10.2.0.5.0     Production
    TNS for 64-bit Windows: Version 10.2.0.5.0 - Production
    NLSRTL Version 10.2.0.5.0 - Production
    How to use the extraction of values?
    1.Better in Select statement; assigning directli in a variable or using xmlquery function?.PL/SQL or SQL calls to XMLType methods such as extract() or getStringVal() should be equivalent (putting aside the context switch).
    However, none of them is the correct way to retrieve a scalar value from a given node.
    You must use extractValue() function instead (SQL only) for release < 11.2 and XMLCast/XMLQuery starting with 11.2.
    One more Question:
    I have seen a lot of options to handle with XML Files.
    So in my case only querying data in XML Files is relevant.
    I have seen many APIs called XMLDOM, DMBS_XMLDOM, XMLTYPE...
    When to use these APIS. Can you give me some input on that please?That's a broad topic.
    A relevant answer will depend on your requirement.
    - Do you have to process large files, and if so how large?
    - Is performance/memory management a concern for you?
    - Do you want to extract single values, or process the XML content as relational data?
    If you have any specific test case to show us, please post in the {forum:id=34} forum, and make sure you include all the necessary details (see the FAQ).

  • How to open and XML file?

    Does anyone have a way on Mac to open an XML file for viewing. This can be done with WIN Excel and XML toolkit but doesn't exist for Mac Excel in Office 2008. I can open with TextEdit but would like to see the info with headers and cells without all the XML coding. Numbers 09 can't open it at all.

    Numbers uses XML to build the description of the documents but it's not an XML editor.
    A simple search in Google with the intricate key string xml editor AND mac return numerous interesting links.

  • Comparing an excel file to and xml file and appending data to the xml file

    I have an xml file (mapsource) and an excel file. One of the columns in the excel file matches up with a node in the xml file. I want to be able to loop through both files and add a new node to the xml file where the one of the columns in the excel file matches a node in the xml file.
    I can create a query object out of the excel dosument using the cfspreadsheet tag.
    I'm able to use xmlparse to create a xml document object from the xml file.
    What I would like to do is add col_3 from the excel spreadsheet as a new node when col_2 is equal to gpx.wpt.name.xmltext of the xml object.
    Any help or direction would be very helpful!
