Uploading a text file with unknown number of texts

Hi ,
i have a flat file with around 10,000 record's.
each material number followed by different lengths & unknown number of text's separated by delimiter '$',
that need to be saved using save_text function module.
the file is as follows,
record 1 :     material1$text1$text2$text3
record 2 :     material2$text1$text2$text3$text4$text5$text6$.....
record 3 :     material3$text1$text2$text3$text4$text5
record 4:      material3$text1
- - - - - - - - - - - - so on ....
i created the following structure , to split and save each text separated by '$' , to save in TLINE of save_text function module.
types : begin of ty_file,
              matnr type mara-matnr,
              text1 type string,
              text2 type string,
              text3 type string,
              text4 type string,
              text20 type string,
           end of ty_file.
i have uploaded the file and saved in table it_file type ty_file.
loop it_file into wa_file.
   split wa_file at '$' in to matnr text1 text2 text3 text4 ....... so on.
endloop.
please, suggest me an alternate way to reduce the code, instead of creating a structure like above, so that each splitted text
stores in a single variable and is passed to TLINE of corresponding material, in save_text function module
thanks

Hi,
The flat file contains , material No. followed by it's text , each text sepearted by '$' symbol.
For each material i have to get all lines of text, and passed to tables paramter of save_text.
The Number of text' for each material is varying.
Please kindly suggest me , how many variables i need to create to hold each splitted text and store it in Tline
I wrote the below program assuming that the material number has maximum of 20 texts, it's working fine. But, what if the number of texts exceeds 20.

Importing text file (with file names) into Automator.. is it possible?

Hello all,
I have been working with Windows Batch files for my line of work. I have a couple of file names in a text file (a column), which I want to copy from one folder of one hdd to another folder on a different hdd. I have been trying to do this kind of work with a Mac. I already know how you copy and rename files in automator (which isn't difficult, of course) but you have to 'select' the files in the finder first (with get specified items).
But the only way i see that you can specify items is by selecting them... is there a way to import a text file with all the file names instead of selecting all the file names manually?
or is there an AppleScript alternative which I can use to import the text file (or just copy into applescript) and run before the query's of copying and renaming the files? I am kind of new to Apple programming.
The text file looks like this:
image1.jpg
image2.jpg
etc..
so there has to be a command to: 'goto' a specific folder as well.
Thanks in advance!

You can import text files, but if they are just names you will need an additional action to add the source folder path. A *Run AppleScript* action can be used, for example:
Tested workflow:
1) *Ask for Finder Items* {Type: files } -- choose the text file containing the names
2) *Combine Text Files* -- this gets the text file contents
3) *Filter Paragraphs* { return paragraphs that are not empty } -- skip blank lines
4) *Run AppleScript* -- copy and paste the following script:
<pre style="
font-family: Monaco, 'Courier New', Courier, monospace;
font-size: 10px;
font-weight: normal;
margin: 0px;
padding: 5px;
border: 1px solid #000000;
width: 680; height: 340px;
color: #000000;
background-color: #FFEE80;
overflow: auto;"
title="this text can be pasted into an Automator 'Run AppleScript' action">
on run {input, parameters} -- add folder path
add the specified folder path to a list of file names
input: a list of text items (the file names)
output: a list of file paths (aliases)
set output to {}
set SkippedItems to {} -- this will be a list of skipped items (errors)
set SourceFolder to (choose folder with prompt "Choose the folder containing the file names") as text -- this is the folder containing the names
repeat with AnItem in the input -- step through each name in the input
try
set AnItem to SourceFolder & AnItem -- add the prefix
set the end of the output to (AnItem as alias) -- test
on error number ErrorNumber -- oops
set ErrorNumber to (" (" & ErrorNumber as text) & ")" -- add the specific error number
set the end of SkippedItems to (AnItem as text) & ErrorNumber
end try
end repeat
ShowSkippedAlert for SkippedItems
return the output -- pass the result(s) to the next action
end run
to ShowSkippedAlert for SkippedItems
show an alert dialog for any items skipped, with the option to cancel the workflow
parameters - SkippedItems [list]: the items skipped
returns nothing
if SkippedItems is not {} then
set {AlertText, TheCount} to {"Error with AppleScript action", count SkippedItems}
if TheCount is greater than 1 then
set theMessage to (TheCount as text) & space & " items were skipped:"
else
set theMessage to "1 " & " item was skipped:"
end if
set {TempTID, AppleScript's text item delimiters} to {AppleScript's text item delimiters, return}
set {SkippedItems, AppleScript's text item delimiters} to {SkippedItems as text, TempTID}
if button returned of (display alert AlertText message (theMessage & return & SkippedItems) ¬

How can I upload and download files with uiXML?

I want to implement upload and download files with uiXML. In some previouse topic I got answare to look in AbstractPageBroker class in JavaDOC. I did it but this is a very-very little resolution description for this problem. I think for developers YOU (UIX Team) must in very quick time to put some examples on the NET because this is a nice technology but with adecvate samplase and developers guide it will be dead very soon. I digging this forum for information. I see many many people have same problems about this technology. They like it and want to use and try but documentation is very very poor.
WE WANT EXAMPLES and separate forum for UIX. I think it deserve this.
If You have any more detailed documentation would be nice to put on the net. I have uixdemo.zip file but this is in very early fase of development. I downloaded it before fwe months. And now I can't find it anymore on youre site. What happend?

Attila -
I went back and re-read the JavaDoc for AbstractPageBroker and MultipartFormItem and put together the following sample PageBroker based on the description from the JavaDoc:
import java.io.File;
import java.io.FileOutputStream;
import java.io.IOException;
import javax.servlet.ServletConfig;
import javax.servlet.ServletContext;
import oracle.cabo.servlet.BajaContext;
import oracle.cabo.servlet.Page;
import oracle.cabo.share.util.MultipartFormItem;
import oracle.cabo.servlet.xml.UIXPageBroker;
* An extension of UIXPageBroker which stores all uploaded
* files in the temporary directory.
public class UploadingPageBroker extends UIXPageBroker
* Override of AbstractPageBroker.doUploadFile() which saves
* all files to the temporary directory.
protected String doUploadFile(
BajaContext context,
Page page,
MultipartFormItem item) throws IOException
// Get the location of the file to create in the temp directory.
// Of course a real application probably wouldn't upload files to
// the temp directory - just using this contrived example to
// demonstrate basic uploading support.
File file = _getFile(context, item);
if (file != null)
// Create a FileOutputStream. Of course, a real application would
// probably want to buffer the output
FileOutputStream out = new FileOutputStream(file);
// Write out the file
item.writeFile(out);
// Close up the output stream
out.close();
// We can return a value here to add to the PageEvent
// if so desired.
return null;
// Gets the File for the item that we are uploading
private File _getFile(
BajaContext context,
MultipartFormItem item
// Get the file name
String name = item.getFilename();
// If we don't have a file, bail...
if (name == null)
return null;
// Get the path to the temporary directory
File dir = _getTempDir();
// Return the File object
return new File(dir, name);
// Returns the path to the temprary directory
private File _getTempDir()
// Get the temporary directory from the ServletContext
ServletConfig sConfig = getServlet().getServletConfig();
ServletContext sContext = sConfig.getServletContext();
return (File)sContext.getAttribute("javax.servlet.context.tempdir");
In this sample, each uploaded file is simply saved in the temporary directory. You'll want to replace the code that creates the FileOutputStream for the uploaded file to use whatever OutputStream makes sense for your application.
BTW - I used the following UIX page to test this out:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<page xmlns="http://xmlns.oracle.com/uix/controller">
<content>
<pageLayout xmlns="http://xmlns.oracle.com/uix/ui">
<contents>
<form name="uploadForm" usesUpload="true">
<contents>
<fileUpload name="uploadedFile"/>
<submitButton name="upload" text="Upload"/>
</contents>
</form>
</contents>
</pageLayout>
</content>
</page>
Hope this sample helps with the uploading part of your question. I'll see if I can provide a download sample in a later post.

Importing CD to Artist folder\Album folder\file with track number and name:

I have a problem then importing my cd’s to my harddisk using iTunes.
On my previous pc I got what I want, Artist folder, Album folder and file with track number and name:
e.g.
D:\My Music\B.B. King\Blues On The Bayou\01 Blues Boys Tune.mp3
D:\My Music\B.B. King\Blues On The Bayou\02 Bad Case Of Love.mp3
D:\My Music\B.B. King\Blues On The Bayou\03 I'll Survive.mp3
But now I get:
D:\My Music\Compilations\Blues On The Bayou\01 Blues Boys Tune.mp3
D:\My Music\ Compilations \02 Bad Case Of Love.mp3
D:\My Music\ Compilations \03 I'll Survive.mp3
In iTunes my settings are Edit -> Preferences -> Advanced: iTunes Music folder: D:\My Music and checkmark in both: “Keep iTunes Music folder organized” and “Copy files to iTunes Music folder when adding to library”.
My version of iTunes is 8.0.1.11
Thanks in advance
Peter

It will depend on the album. Gracenote considers anthologies, a collection of tracks by the same artist taken from different albums, as a compilation. In iTunes the compliation setting should really only be applied to a collection of tracks by different artists.

Reading dilimited input from a text file with tokenizer

i am trying to read in a text file with the following structure: 2 integers on each line with comma as the delimitor.
i am using the BufferedReader stream and Tokenizer to detect ",".
try {
BufferedReader in = new BufferedReader(new FileReader(filename));
//read in the data file
while ((s = in.readLine())!= null) {
int i = 0;
for (i = 0; i < 100; i++) {
t = new StringTokenizer(s,",");
A1 = Integer.parseInt(t.nextToken());
catch (IOException e) {System.err.println(e);}
When i print out A1[i], it only reads the last line of the text file. Please tell me what's wrong.
Also i'd really like A1[i] to store the integer before the comma and another array A2[i] to store the integer after the comma. Please help.
Thanks.
p.s. A1 and A2 are arrays...when i previewd message in Netscape 7 it left out the brackets and the index....

What is the for i loop for? If it is to read the next line from the file, then the while loop has taken care of it. Other than this there should be no problem with the rest of the code.
Just add another line to store the next token into A2.

Importing text file with variable spaces

Hi all
I have a text file with a varying amount of spaces in it. Typical output from the file is attached.
How can I separate the values into separate columns please?
Thanks in advance.

You're going to need some substrings:
DECLARE @flatFileLine VARCHAR(MAX) = '2002 01118511 0.00 0 0.00 0.00 PENDING '
SELECT
SUBSTRING(@flatFileLine,1,4),SUBSTRING(@flatFileLine,5,17),SUBSTRING(@flatFileLine,22,17),SUBSTRING(@flatFileLine,39,17),SUBSTRING(@flatFileLine,56,17),SUBSTRING(@flatFileLine,73,17),SUBSTRING(@flatFileLine,90,17)

Yes. In theme directory i put background.png shortcut for my wallpaper. So, when a change wallpaper, slim background change too.
Example:
ln -s mywallpaper.png /usr/share/slim/themes/default/background.png
So, Slim background always is my wallpaper.
So the wallpaper has to be a *.png ?
No, jpg is possible. But when you create a symbolic link, remember put the extension too. If change png to jpg, change a symbolic link extension.
But, remember if slim theme directory have background.png and background.jpg, Slim always choice .png. So, put only one this.

Exporting text files with song names and artist names only

I need help exporting a playlist as a text file. I know how to do this already,(right click playlist and select "export song list...") but when i open it up in notepad, it is unorganized and is very hard to read. I am burning a disc for my mom and pasting the playlist on the back of the cd cover. I dont want to type out every artist and song name. Help is appreciated.

do you have a copy of Excel (or a different spreadsheet) on the PC, kevin? if so, try opening the text file with that. then it's relatively easy to remove information by deleting the columns of info that you don't want.

How to create PDF from text file with specific layout?

I wanted to create the pdf from text file in specific layout - Landscape orientation and JIS B3 Page size while at Adobe Acrobat Pro.
In past, I could do a right click on a text file (desktop area) and select print to print out the document into .pdf BUT only if I set the Adobe PDF to Landscape and JIS B3 Page size BEFORE. And I could only do 15 text documents at once.
I wanted to see if I could do the create the pdf from text file with specific layout in Adobe Acrobat without having to go to Control Panel to preset the Adobe PDF to specific layout at every time. I would have to set Adobe PDF back to normal layout after I'm done with these pdf print outs. I do lots of pdfs in normal layout. Sometimes I would forget to do that.
So, How do I do that?

No such luck. It would output the contents in letter size even in JIS B3 Page layout at MS word.
Is there a script or action where I could set the orientation and page size before creating PDF on these text files?

Quick look for text files with non-registered extensions

It seems there was a way in 10.5 and 10.6 to register certain extensions with Quick Look to tell them how to preview a file. I have a lot of plain text files with different extensions that are not initially recognized by Quick Look. How do I hack the registry to tell Quick Look to preview a .cfg (or .aux, etc.) file as plain text?

Upload new pdf file with the same name

We are trying to upload a pdf file with a specific name (i.e
file.pdf) that has links to it on many pages of a website. We need
the pdf file to keep the same name but when we try to upload it,
Contribute is being 'smart' and changing the name so as to not
overwrite the file on the server. But we WANT to overwrite the file
on the server. Any ideas on how we can achieve this in Contribute?
Thanks so much (in advance) for your help!

Actually, we have the same problem and I believe the answer
lies in the abilities that your role has assigned to it. The
solution that ThinkInk gave works *if you are allowed to delete
files*. If your role doesn't have that permission, then it will
just upload another copy of the file and rename it.
It's rather irritating that there isn't more control over
this...our server is littered with *thousands and thousands* of
duplicate files that originate from this situation.
If your administrator wants you to be able to delete files as
well, then you could get him/her to give you that permission, and I
believe this will allow you to overwrite the file by using the
"Publish file from my computer" option described above.

Has anyone been able to upload an ibooks file with audio only files (m4a) in it? I keep getting the following error message during the upload in iTunes Producer: ERROR ITMS-9000: "Files of type audio/x-m4a are not allowed outside of widgets.

I keep getting the following error message during the upload in iTunes Producer: ERROR ITMS-9000: "Files of type audio/x-m4a are not allowed outside of widgets. then it names the file as an m4p file. Everything works beautifully on the iPad through Preview, and validates through iTunes Producer up until the attempted upload.

Hello Fellow iBook Authors!
Today I received the same error that you all have been discussing. I tried selecting the DRM
and this did not work for me, though I'm glad it did for some. Here's what I did as a work-around. . .
Since iBooks Author did not have a problem with Videos, I simply used one of my video programs, ScreenFlow to turn the audio into a video file m4v. I added an image and extended the length or timing of the image to span the length of the audio file. Then exported as an .mov. I then opened QuickTime and opened the file and exported the file to iTunes.
You can use iMovie, Camtasia or any other progam that will allow you to export the audio as a movie file. Does this make sense? I hope this helps, at least in the short-term.

Loading text file with flash lite 3.0 problem

Hello,
I recently ran into a problem with loading a plain text file with Flash Lite 3.0.
I know there is a way to load name/value pairs using LoadVars class or XML file using XML class. Both methods work great, but these classes parse the data loaded and I need to load just a plain text - no pairs or xml structure. (its because Im loading specific file format, so I can't make any changes to it)
There is a simple way how to achieve this in Flash using Actionscript 2 by extending the LoadVars class and overriding the onData() method. I used it plenty of times and it works fine.
There is an example of implementation:
// the PlainData.as file
class PlainData extends LoadVars {
    function onData(str) {
        trace(str)
        this.onLoad(true);
// now in the main file
var my_data:PlainData = new PlainData();
my_data.load("my3dmodel.obj");
This code traces unchanged content of my3dmodel.obj file.
The problem comes when I try to run this code using Flash Lite 3.0. The code stops working just by changing player version in publish settings to Flash Lite 3.0. It doesnt display any error, but also doesnt trace any content.
Is there a reason why you cant override onData method in LoadVars class in lite version of flash or am I doing something wrong?
(also overriding onLoad() method works fine in Flash Lite)
