Subdirectories and Files

I want to get a list of subdirectories and the files they contain. After I get the list I want to pass the subdirectory and filename values as strings (through a tokenizer, or an array of some sort). This will allow me to run another method on it that will need these two values from my list.
I have tried examples like: http://www.java2s.com/Code/Java/File-Input-Output/ListingtheDirectoryContents.htm but I have been unable to manipulate it to fit my needs. Any suggestions?

Any suggestions? Not really. Using the File.listFiles() is the correct method to use. I don't see what your problem is.
If you need further help then you need to create a [url http://homepage1.nifty.com/algafield/sscce.html]Short, Self Contained, Compilable and Executable, Example Program (SSCCE) that demonstrates the incorrect behaviour, because I can't guess exactly what you are doing based on the information provided.
Don't forget to use the [url http://forum.java.sun.com/help.jspa?sec=formatting]Code Formatting Tags so the posted code retains its original formatting.

How to copy the whole directory including subdirectories and files in java

i have written the code for copying the directory with subdirectories.but directory is copying .but its subdirectories and files are not copying.please tell me how to solve this problem
import java.io.*;
public class copy
private void copyFile(File src, File dst) throws IOException
InputStream in = new FileInputStream(src);
OutputStream out = new FileOutputStream(dst);
// Transfer bytes from in to out
byte[] buf = new byte[1024];
int len;
while ( (len = in.read(buf)) > 0) {
out.write(buf, 0, len);
in.close();
out.close();
public int copyDirectory(File srcDir, File dstDir) throws IOException
if (srcDir.isDirectory())
if (!dstDir.exists())
dstDir.mkdir();
String[] children = srcDir.list();
int c= children.length;
System.out.println(c);
for (int i = 0; i < children.length; i++) {
copyDirectory(new File(srcDir, children),
new File(dstDir, children[i]));
else {
// This method is implemented in e1071 Copying a File
copyFile(srcDir, dstDir);
return 1;
public static void main(String args[]) throws IOException {
copy c = new copy();
c.copyDirectory(new File("d:/puvvada/sub "),new File("d:/sub"));
c.copyFile(new File("d:/puvvada/sub/auth.html"),new File("d:/sub/auth.html")) ;

It is NOT a ""here's my spec". As simple as it is.
And of course I know help here is free as in other thousands of forums
That is not really the issue. You have already noted that this is not as simple as you thought. There have been at least three statements in reponse to your request. The reasons for these statements are that you are asking for someone to
write a script that is not a simple script. YOu canwrite a script and post it with questions and your questions will be answered.
I posted before that you cannot copy applications like Office between systems. They must be installed. Office and most other applications can g\be installed by Group Policy. This -is how we normally do this in Windows. There is normally
no other way to do this for a large number of systems.
For large numbers of arbitrary file we would normally use RoboCopy. The issues you have had with RoboCopy can be overcome by setting the correct options. If you are trying to copy Office or other applications you sill likely find that many files
are locked. This cannot be overcome by any copy method. This is one of many reasons why we use Installers for applications.
I suggest that you learn the basics of Windows and how it manages applications and files. Getting the fundamentals clear will help you to understand how to perform basic tasks in a Windows network.
If you really need help with this then you need to step back and explain exactly what is being copied and why. I can think of no real world scenario where what you are asking for is necessary. If you can explain that perhaps we can point
you at a usable solution.
Just keep in mind that you cannot remotely install Office or most applications by copying the files. This has always been true in Windows.

Set default directory and file permissions

I'm trying to use setfacl to set the default permissions for directories and files but I get an error saying "sudo: setfacl: command not found." What I am trying to do is share a specific directory on a local external drive connected by Thunderbolt. Everyone in the group has access to the drive and can view all the files but once a new file is created, the group permissions are not updated. Here is an example of two PDF file. The one created by userA only has permissions for that user where the file created by userB allows all users to open and modity the file.
-rw------- 1 userA staff 1988176 Feb 13 15:09 TestFile01.pdf
-rwxr-----+ 1 userB staff 1827102 Feb 13 15:05 TestFile02.pdf
0: group:MarketingGroup allow read,write,append,readattr,writeattr,readextattr,writeextattr,readsecurity
I can manually update the permissions through the Get Info window but this requires me to reset permissions every time a person saves a new file to the drive. There needs to be a way to do this automatically.
Here is what I tried but the setfacl command is not supported.
sudo setfacl -Rdm g:GroupName:rwx /DirectoryPath

Thanks Frank. I have an externat drive connected to my Mac via Thunderbolt. On this drive I have a specific directory that I'm shairing with Mac and PC users. I've created a group on the network to limit access to this directory to specific users. That works perfectly. The issue I'm having is when one of these users creates a new file in this directory or any of it's subdirectories, no one has permission to open or edit the file. Right now I'm using Get Info to modify the permissions of the folder and all enclosed items. When I check the permissions of the files I've "corrected" I notice this extra imformation "0: group:MarketingGroup allow read,write,append,readattr,writeattr,readextattr,writeextattr,readsecurity." This is not included when I check the permissions of items saved by other uses in the group.
So my question is how do I set the default permissions for this directory so every new file and directory will have the correct permissions to allow anyone in this group full access to open and modify every file?
Thanks for your help!!!!

Directory and file permissions in Oracle EBS R12.2.4

Hi there
I beleive that a typical R12.2.4 Linux x86-64 based environment has following directory structure under the installation directory (/u01/oracle/<SID>)
11.2.0 data fs1 fs2 fs_ne
So my question here is what should be the permission level of these directories (and their subdirectories) and the files underneath them. I am looking for permissions for both Database Tier and Application Tier directories and associated files. Is there a published Oracle Support document for this?
Regards
Kabeer

But by memory I recall that the files underneath the DB and Apps Tier's directories were having lesser permissions. And that's where I was asking to make sure.
The list of files/directories with the permissions are not documented and the only way to revert back to the original values which are set by Rapid Install is re-running the installation again.
If this instance is used for practice only you may keep permissions the way they are now as long as the application/database work with no issues.
Thanks,
Hussein

MY system folder, including hidden folders are littered with duplicate folders and files with the suffix (from old Mac) How do I remove them

I have a Macbook Pro running Leopard 10.5.8. I had a problem with my my operating system (my fault, I moved a file I shoudnt have) couldnt boot up but was able to boot up from a backup. I managed to repair my original system except now all the system folders, including hidden folders are littered with duplicate folders and files with the suffix (from old Mac). For the most part the dupes are an exact copy, but not always. I want to remove them to free up space and cant imagine duplicate folders in the /system/library are not hindering my computer. But I dont know where to start and am afraid of doing irreparable damage. Any ideas

pacull,
Use iCal>View>Show Notifications to choose what to do with the notification.

Can't read or write some files, internet is failing, youtube won't load, software I tried to install was in Slovenian, not dutch or english like in my systempreferences settings, pictures and files won't preview with spacebar, etc. Malware?

Specs:
iMac 10.8.5
3,4 GHz Intel Core i7
32 GB 1600 MHz DDR3
Can't read or write some files, internet is failing, youtube won't load, security software I tried to install was in Slovenian, not dutch or english like in my systempreferences settings, pictures and files won't preview with spacebar and are randomly corrupted, when I entered something in the Youtube searchbar (when it was still working) it send me to a site with sexadds.
I tried restart my iMac and when I was logged back in, my dock preferences were reset.
Also tried to download some security software to check my Mac for malware, but when I did, I tried several, I got a notification that said something like 'dumpfiles (don't know if this is the right translation...) damaged'.
I'm taking screenshots from all the weird notifications I get and even three quarters off the screenshots I took in the last three hours are already unreadable.
It started this morning when I tried opening a Premiere Pro file on which I worked the night before.
When I tried opening it, it said the file was damaged and could not be openend.
I tried opening it with AE or importing the file in a new project but nothing helped.
When I tried looking for autosaves, this is the really weird part, there were none.
Even though there are autosaves from my other projects, this one was completely gone.
It looked like the day before never happened on my computer.
Also when I openend Premiere all the recent projects had been wiped.
So at first I thought it was a Premiere Pro failure.
But than, later on the day, I tried loading some RAW files from my compact flash card.
This is where I would get an error (error -36) which said some data cannot be read or written.
I tried importing the files with a view different technics, from dragging to importing via Lightroom and I succeeded with Image Browser.
But when I tried moving the files to an other folder the same error occurred.
While dealing with this issue I wanted to put on some soothing music on youtube.
This is when the next weird thing occurred: youtube wasn't completely loading in Chrome. I refreshed a view times, checked the internet connection and still no difference.
When I tried in Safari it did work but when I clicked enter on the searchbar in Youtube, a page with sexadds appeared (I didn't install AdBlock in Safari...).
I read about this 'phishing' where you are redirected to a site were a possible malware installment can take place...
I don't know if it's connected to any of the problems I've been having but I just never experienced this on a mac, I have been a Mac user for 10 years now.
On top of it all, internet started working worse and worse and now it's not even working at all. I had to fill in the password over and over, normally it remembers.
Just like my system preferences, all the preferences I had with Chrome where also reset.
Also somewhere in between I got this notification: Mac OS X must restore library to run programs. Type your password to allow.
To me this is all very weird and suspicious. I have clearly no idea what's going on. Could this be another sort of trojan horse or malware?
Some background info which could be helpful for solving this mystery:
two months ago the one year old Fusion Drive in my iMac just broke out of nowhere.
I got it replaced by a qualified apple repair store.
When I got my computer back, all the files where gone.
I got on the internet without AdBlock installed yet.
A game or whatever it was, can't clearly remember, got installed by accident.
I deleted it immediately.
Only two weeks later, I couldn't log in to my account. It didn't recognize my password and username.
So I brought my mac back to the store.
Here the repair guy said it was a minor thing and he just needed to reconnect my account. He also mentioned he found a downloaded game name Sparta and it probably had something to do with the error.
I asked him; could it be a virus? He replied no way.
I don't know why I couldn't be a virus, just because it's a mac doesn't mean it cannot be done.
So today I tried installing anti virus software (such as avast- was in a weird language looked like slovenian, clamxav - was in slovenian) but I couldn't install them.
PLEASE help me! I don't know what to do anymore, I work fulltime and I need my computer, I have no time to bring it in for repair, are there other perhaps easier ways?
Could this be the work of a virus or a malware? Or is it a disk permissions issue?

It sounds like you may have multiple problems, but none of them are likely to be caused by malware.
First, the internet-related issues may be related to adware or a network compromise. I tend to lean more towards the latter, based on your description of the problem. See:
http://www.adwaremedic.com/kb/baddns.php
http://www.adwaremedic.com/kb/hackedrouter.php
If investigation shows that this is not a network-specific issue, then it's probably adware. See my Adware Removal Guide for help finding and removing it. Note that you mention AdBlock as if it should have prevented this, but it's important to understand that ad blockers do not protect you against adware in any way. Neither would any kind of anti-virus software, which often doesn't detect adware.
As for the other issues, it sounds like you've got some serious corruption. I would be inclined to say it sounds like a failing drive, except it sounds like you just got it replaced. How did you get all your files back after the new drive was installed?

Step by Step Guide Details for RFC to File and File to RFC scenario

Hi Guru's
Good day to you. I am tyring to develop some scenarios based on RFC adaptor. so i want to start up with basic scenarios like RFC to File scenario(Here i just want to pull some data from SAP using RFC and put it in destination folder as an text file) and FILE to RFC scenario (Here i just want to take some data from the file and update into SAP).
For doing these scenarios i would like to request you people to send me the step by step guide which explains me about the complete steps of configurations required to do the RFC to FILE scenario and FILE to RFC scenario.
I found some scenarios and i am in confused state. so i request you to please put your experience to help me out.
thanks in advance.
Regards

Hi Aaron,
I don't know your scenario and your ECC and PI versions but I learned how to use ABAP Proxy more than 1 year ago with the following tutorial:
Edit--> The forum doesn't allow me to post external link, just search "ABAP Proxy Communication Scenario" in google and visit the 1st result
The way to develop ABAP Proxys has changed a little if your PI is 7.1. In the ECC side, the transaction SPROXY looks much better too if you have a recent version of the ECC.
Edited by: Marshal on Oct 8, 2009 5:08 PM
I've found that SDN Document. Maybe the scenario is not the most simple to start with ABAP Proxy but is very well documented and is for PI 7.1. The document also handles the inbound and outbound proxys

I was told of an application that will allow the use of a second screen to view my data and files, but I forgot its name. I'd like to make the connection because my LCD is broken.

You don't need an application, just plug a compaitble monitor into the display port of your MacBook Pro, set the screen up in System Preferences>Displays

Can I use the new Time Capsule to backup my mid 2010 Macbook Pro? Also can I want to free up my hard disk, can I save my photos and files on the time capsule and later access through wifi?

Can I use the new Time Capsule to backup my mid 2010 Macbook Pro?
Yes, if you are asking about using Time Machine to backup the Mac.
Also can I want to free up my hard disk, can I save my photos and files on the time capsule and later access through wifi?
You are not thinking of deleting the photos and files on your Mac, are you? If you do this, you will have no backups for those files.
Another concern is that Time Machine backs up the changes on your Mac. At some point, Time Machine will automatically delete the photos and files from the Time Capsule.....you just don't know when this might occur.
In other words, only delete files from your Mac that you can afford to lose.

How to recover lost folders and files - Pls help, help...

Some days ago I lost all of my 15 GB folders and files that stored in my Macbook Pro hard drive called DATA. I brought my Macbook pro to an experienced computer tecnicians who providing data recovery services. To his and my suprise, after checking, scanning it a few hours, he said their is no way to recover because he did not find any trails at all. The computer still seems working properly - I have no problem with any applications. There are few other folders in the DATA hard disk containing pictures, computer programs still remain. These lost folders and files contain mainly documents (word, excel, power point, pdf etc) which I accumulated in my many years working !!!!. I did not make a back up since last September partly because I think Mac is very safe.
The computer with me all the time on that day and only my son used Power Point to make a simple presentation on that evening - he can not save it on the folders the he normally use - All the folders and files are gone.
I will appreciate it very much if any of you can tell me what would be the possible causes and more importanly how to recover the lost folders and files. They are very very valuable to me.
Many thanks for your kind attention

First, did the data actually get deleted, or is it still there somewhere? Try searching the drive for some of the documents, perhaps it's all just in another folder on that drive.
If it's truly gone, it's impossible for us to say what might have happened to make it unrecoverable. Perhaps someone using the computer used Secure Empty Trash, or securely erased empty space on the hard drive. Perhaps it was overwritten by other stuff before you noticed. It's possible the hard drive is starting to fail, though this seems like an awfully specific problem for that to be the issue.
Or perhaps the tech you took the computer to didn't know what he was doing. Why not try recovering what you can on your own? See Recovering deleted files.
You should be aware that no computer is safe. All computers rely on hardware that may fail and software that can have bugs. You absolutely MUST maintain a good set of frequently-updated backups... no fewer than two full backups of anything you don't want to lose.
