To Find the path of the filename

Hi Guys!
Is it possible in D2K 2.1 to find the path of the filename entered by the user????
My problem is: I use DDE package funct DDE.APP_BEGIN to open a filename (e.g. in this case any HTML file) enterd by the user. But I do not know where the IEXPLORE.EXE lies on each client machine. I think while using this funct, I need to give the full path of the module I want to open the file with. Because when I tried to use following func it gave me some error.
DDE.APP_BEGIN('iexplore.exe c:\file_name');
I hope the prob is clear.
Thanks for the help.

I'm glad it worked for you too.
The thing with batch files:
Imagine you want to open to allow the user to open some files (with different extensions) with Wordpad.
My previous solution would work if all the files had .wri extension.
The directory for wordpad.exe is not the same for Windows 95 and Windows NT.
My solution:
create a batch file named vWordpad.bat:
@echo off
"c:\program files\accessories\wordpad.exe" %1In your form trigger,
DDE.APP_BEGIN('vWordpad.bat c:\file_name');Make sure vWordpad.bat in located in a directory included in the OS path (c:\windows95, for example).
Now, if you move your application to a Windows NT machine, all you have to do is change "c:\program files\accessories\wordpad.exe" to "c:\program files\windows nt\accessories\wordpad.exe". No need to change the fmb, recreate the fmx, etc...
Everyone, feel free to comment on this approach.

Hi,
You have to first upload this file using fileupload UI element.
Then you can do the rest.
Following tutorial will explain you it in detail

How to find the path where the program resides

I need to use the path where the running program file resides.
My purpose is to make a program where some parameters are in a separate file. I want to have it in the same directory as the .jar program is. This way I could start and run the program from a memory stick.
Is there a way to get the program path?

Displaying the path of the file selected by a FileChooser in a TextField

I'm just getting started with Swing. I developed a simple dialog box that has two text fields and two buttons. The objective is to open two files using those two buttons. I used FileChooser to select the files. Now, I want to display the path of the selected files in their corresponding TextFields. I use the following code to do that.
final FileChooser fc1 = new FileChooser();
final FileChooser fc2 = new FileChooser();
final TextField tf1 = new TextField();
final TextField tf2 = new TextField();
private void button1ActionPerformed(ActionEvent evt)
            int returnVal1 = fc1.showOpenDialog(labelPhpFile);
            if (returnVal1 == JFileChooser.APPROVE_OPTION)
                File file1 = fc1.getSelectedFile();
                String fileName1 = file1.getName();
                String filePath1 = file1.getPath();
                tf1.setText(filePath1);
private void button2ActionPerformed(ActionEvent evt)
            int returnVal2 = fc2.showOpenDialog(labelPhpFile);
            if (returnVal2 == JFileChooser.APPROVE_OPTION)
                File file2 = fc2.getSelectedFile();
                String fileName2 = file2.getName();
                String filePath2 = file2.getPath();
                tf2.setText(filePath2);
}The above code works fine only for the first file. Mean the path of the file selected using fc1 is getting displayed in the tf1 TextField. But, the file selected using fc2 is not getting displayed tf2 TextField. Please help me.
Thank you :)

When a file is uploaded, the file name is also submitted. The path of the file is available only to the machine within the Local Machine security zone. The value property returns only the file name to machines outside the Local Machine security zone. See About URL Security Zones for more information on security zones.
i need to know on how to get the compelete path /directory of the filename
using <input type="file"> tag You can't. Its a security thing.
is there any other way to get an input file from a local host aside from <input type="file"> tag?No. Not using just html.
You could always go into activex components, but thats different again.

How to get the path of the image stored in sap??

Hi All
The problem is
While making an entry in standard there is a field called documents through which we attach our images in sap.
How to get the path of the image stored with the corresponding order so that the image can be displayed while we are creating a report.
I know how to upload the image while creating a report using docking control.
I am not able to get the path of the image stored...
Please Help
Thanks in advance..
Pooja

I am not aware of exactly which tables are used for storing the attached doc. details, but we have worked in the similar requiremnent.
What you can do is .... before uploading the image to any order, try swich on the SQL trace ST05 and after upload switch off.
The log will display what are the tables involved while storing the image. And you can easily find out the image location.

How to get the path of the cache directory ?

Hi everyone,
I need to get the path of the cache directory to copy files into it (these files are security files that are necessary to encrypt data).
Maybe there is a jnlp.jar to have object that implements a method getCachePath() ? But I can't find it.
Any ideas ?. thanks.

you can find the cache location by finding the location of the jar file you are running from:
URL resource =
this.getClass().getClassLoader().getResource("testResource");
if (resource != null) {
String s = resource.toString();
if (s.startsWith("jar:")) {
int index = s.indexOf("!");
if (index > 4) {
String fileurl = s.substring(4,index);
if (fileurl.startswith("file:")) {
String path = fileurl.substring(5);
// now path is the path to the jar file in the cache containing the resource

Defining the path for the use of beans in a JSP

          Hello,
          I would like to use a bean in a JSP file, via the <jsp:usebean> directive.
          I didn't find any property (weblogic property) which could define the path
          to the directory of my beans classes.
          So :
          1) i have put the path of this directory in the weblogic classpath in the weblogic
          start script.
          2) i made the same with the java classpath.
          Both solutions don't work at all.
          Any suggestion would be appreciated.
          Thanks in advance.


          We use the \weblogic\myserver\serverclasses for beans..
          of course we pack beans into jar files, and these jar files are included into
          the wls classpath..

Problem with sqlplus with whitespace in the path of the @ command

I'm running Oracle 11g on Linux and I'm trying to run a script which will create my database. This script runs fine on windows, but when I test it on Linux, I get the following error:
SP2-0556: Invalid File NameThe problem may be that the path to the file name has a space in it. I'm going to simplify the problem down to one of the many commands I run in the file to make it simple. The sample command I'm trying to run looks like this:
sqlplus [uname]/[pw] @'../database/My Schema/create_sequence.sql'the create_sequence.sql file has two simple create sequence commands that run fine by themselves. I strongly suspect it is due to the white space because when I change the directory name from My Schema to MySchema and alter the above sqlplus command accordingly, the script runs fine.
Like I said, this script works in windows with the spaces, but not in Linux. I suspect spaces may not be supported, but I was wondering if anyone knew any different or it there is a work-around?
side note: running a command like:
more ../database/My\ Schema/create_sequence.sqlor
more '../database/My Schema/create_sequence.sql'prints the contents of the file to the console as you would expect. So, I think this is sqlplus (and linux) specific.

On linux, you can't create directory that contains spaces between letters, like let say : fol der. Doing a mkdir fol der would create two folders,
one named fol and the other named der.
By information you provided , it's obvious that the exact and the correct full path to the create_sequence.sql file is ...database/MySchema/create_sequence.sql.
Can you position yourself in the directory where create_sequence.sql file is and type pwd to confirm the correct path?

Can the path to the iTunes Music folder be locked?

I'm trying to simplify the results of my own occasional user error.
Can the path to the iTunes Music folder be locked?
I have my library stored on an external drive that I keep turned off when not in use. If I accidentally start iTunes with that drive off, it recreates the original iTunes Music folder and directs itself there.
Can that behavior be stopped? It seems like there should be a way for iTunes to send a pop up or something, rather than this automated over ride to manual settings.

Yeah, I know I don't have an end of the world scenario here.
But just remounting the drive doesn't do it. I have to go back into iTunes and reset the folder location. Then wait several minutes as it all reorganizes itself.
I know just leaving the drive on is the easiest answer. It causes too much of a domestic dispute about all the blinking boxes I have running all the time. I have convinced her that the green one on the AEBS has to be on if she wants internet.

Hi,
What is the path in the filesystem for the deployed Wendynpro application in the WAB AS
If you search for your component under the /usr/<SID> folder
We have a different version of webdynpro application running in production and non production , what is the process for overwriting the deployed application from one enviorment to another.
If you have NWDI in place CTS would help in this, else you can deploy your application using sdm.
in CE you can deploy the application from NWDS.
