Using the regex to match the file name with date time

Hello all,
currently I had problem to match the following file name with the date time. Of course I can use this regex like ""(\\\\w+|.+).(zip)" to match it. However in the current application i need to parse the file name and get the current date time to check if it is matched. Does anyone have good idea?
{code}
testfile10-08-09-2008-08-21-04-24-0443.zip
testfile11-08-09-2008-08-22-04-24-0441.zip
{code}
thanks in advanced!

- with "\\\\w" you probably meant "\\w";
- "\\w+|.+" doesn't make sense: you can simply do ".+" in that case;
- ".(zip)" will also match the string "%zip" or "Ezip".
However in the current application i need to parse the file name and get the current date time to check if it is matched. I don't know what you mean by that.

File name with Dateand time stamp.

Hi All,
I want to generate a file with a date and time stamp.
For that in File Receiver adaptor i am using option "Add Time Stamp" in File Construction mode. however it is generationg file name as: FileName_20082104_121211_645.txt . In this I don't know what these last three characters "_645" are? And In the File name i only want a file name with datetime stamp . I don't require underscore in between. for eg: FileName_20082104121211.txt (FileName_dateTime.txt)
Can anybody suggest me the way to achive this?
Thanks,
Atul

@FileName_20082104_121211_645
The date time stamp in XI's file adapter will be in that format. This is to avoid over writing of files created simultaneously at the same time. So the last 3 digits is a form of an unique id to distinguish between the same.
In case you want the format as FileName_20082104_121211, use the dynamic configuration and create the file name inside the mapping itself and pass it across.
To get an idea about the same, ref:
/people/michal.krawczyk2/blog/2005/11/10/xi-the-same-filename-from-a-sender-to-a-receiver-file-adapter--sp14 - an usage of the same.

Have file name with date working but appending the time to file name can't get a result

DECLARE @dt AS VARCHAR(26)
SELECT @dt = REPLACE(CONVERT(VARCHAR(26),getDate(),110),'-','-'
Have this appended to a filename like: log_01-15-2015. Don't know what to add to SQL code to get the get the time and append time in hours, min, sec. like: log_01-15-2015_10:01:33
DECLARE @dt AS VARCHAR(50)
SELECT @dt = REPLACE(CONVERT(VARCHAR,CURRENT_TIMESTAMP,110),'-','-') +'_'+ CONVERT(VARCHAR,CURRENT_TIMESTAMP,108)
EXEC master.dbo.sp_configure 'show advanced options',1
RECONFIGURE WITH OVERRIDE
EXEC master.dbo.sp_configure 'xp_cmdshell',1
RECONFIGURE WITH OVERRIDE
SET @bcpCommand = 'bcp "SELECT * FROM ##Temp ORDER BY barcode" queryout "C:\TEMP\Log\ContainerHistory_Log_' + @dt +'" -c -T'
EXEC master..xp_cmdshell @bcpCommand
I am trying to append to the file created with the date a time stamp but when appending the time part for the filename results aren't creating the file. If it's just doing the date part then it is working. Any idea what is wrong?

Since you added ":" to the file name, the file name is not valid. You can change ":" to "-".
DECLARE @dt AS VARCHAR(50)
SELECT @dt = CONVERT(VARCHAR,CURRENT_TIMESTAMP,110) +'_'+ REPLACE(CONVERT(VARCHAR,CURRENT_TIMESTAMP,108), ':', '-')
SELECT @dt

How to Use FULL TEXT Indexing Search on file names with brackets

I would like to use a FULL Text Seach query to find Files on a windows file system
The Problem is when the case comes up where there is a parentheses"()" in the file name. This example was created from a file copy being pasted in the same folder location as the original a few times.
Here is my code:
DECLARE
@SearchWord VARCHAR(50)
SET @SearchWord = '"KAP1556PP_P01(2).jpg"'
SELECT [FileName], [FilePath] FROM [dbo].[tblLegalPlan] WHERE CONTAINS(*, @SearchWord)
When I use Double quotes for the @Searchword I recieve no results.
SET
@SearchWord = '"KAP1556PP_P01(2).jpg"'
When I remove the Double Quotes for the @Searchword I recieve an error message:
SET
@SearchWord = 'KAP1556PP_P01(2).jpg'
Msg 7630, Level 15, State 2, Line 8
Syntax error near '(' in the full-text search condition 'KAP1556PP_P01(2).jpg'.
When I search for files containing TEXT up to the bracket i Get undesrired results obviously:
SET
@SearchWord = '"KAP1556PP_P01*"'
Results
FileName FilePath
KAP1556PP_P01(1).jpg BC\EPP\KAP
KAP1556PP_P01(2).jpg BC\EPP\KAP
I would like results where I can search for the file name and only one file is found matching the search word.
Thanks

Is this a SQL Server Reporting question? You maybe better off posting this in a more relevant forum.

Receiver File Name with date

Hi @,
I have a requirement where I wanted to genereate the recevier file name as TestYYYYMMDD.txt format.
Note that in Receiver target structure date is not coming and output file also we dont require date data.
I tried to put the Date root node and date field in target structure and in Receiver FCC i have not put the Date root node name but still date data is generated in output file.
Since its a Comma separated file hence I can not use CUT option which is applicable for Fixed length file.
I used the time stamp option but it is giving HH.MM.SS details which i dont want.
Is there any other options available.
chirag

You can add a node 'TRAIL' with 'FILENAME' sub-node; Your target format is like this:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<ns0:MT_FILE_STRING_OUT xmlns:ns0="HTTP://WWW.XXX.COM">
   <Recordset>
      <Row>3</Row>
   </Recordset>
   <Trail>
      <Filename>DFS-XXX-20090804173307</Filename>
   </Trail>
</ns0:MT_FILE_STRING_OUT>
When mapping, the UDF can be:
(imports: java.text.SimpleDateFormat;)
SimpleDateFormat sdf = new SimpleDateFormat("yyyyMMddHHmmss");
String ds = sdf.format(new Date(System.currentTimeMillis()));
String filename = "DFS-ADSFCL-" + ds;
return filename;
In file adapter, you can use the adapter attributes to get the file name and the conversion to cut the trail node in the file...
Done!

Implement check for File Names with data into TRG table

hi,
I am trying to load the Multiple files names & Autonumber to oracle table T1 which is further loaded the auto-number with data to target table TRG. My problem is when the same name file comes again due to size then load it again. & also don't insert Target (TRG) table rows with same data while insert the only those records/rows which are not in Target Table(TRG) .. Is this standard approach. becoz in this way I thing loading Performance speed will b down??
Any other or best recommended approach???/

Hey Jason,
Create a validation of type exists. in expression 1 put:
SELECT 1
FROM DUAL
WHERE UPPER(:P9_FILE) LIKE '%TEST.HTML';
{code}
change P9_FILE to your file browse item name and change '%TEST.HTML' to '%YOUR_FILE_NAME'
Hope this helps,

File name with latest time stamp for inbound interface

Hi experts,
I have a requirement to develop an inbound interface in which I need to fetch the all files from the physical directory, and then retrieve the one with the latest timestamp. I found out the FM 'SUBST_GET_FILE_LIST', but this FM does not gives me the timestamp.
Is there any other FM/table through which this can be achieved?
Thanks,

Reading from a file. How to ask the user for file name at run time????

I have the code to read from a file but my problem is how to prompt the user for the file name at run time.
import java.io.File;
import java.io.FileNotFoundException;
import java.util.InputMismatchException;
import java.util.Scanner;
public class FileRead {
    public static void main(String args[]) {
        Scanner scan = null;
        File file = new File("Results.txt");
        String number;
        try {
            scan = new Scanner(file);
            while (scan.hasNext()){
            number = scan.next();
            System.out.println(number);}
        catch (FileNotFoundException ex1){
            System.out.println("No such file");
        catch (IllegalStateException ex2){
            System.out.println("Did you close the read by mistake");
        catch (InputMismatchException ex){
            System.out.println("File structure incorrect");
        finally{
            scan.close();}
}Any hints would be greatly appreciated. Thank you in advance

I have read through some of the tutorials that you have directed me too and they are very useful, thank you. however there are still a few things that i am not clear about. I am using net beans 5.0 I have placed a text file named Results.txt into the project at the root so the program can view it.
When I use the code that you provided me with, does it matter where the file is, or will it look through everywhere on the hard drive to find a match?
This code compiles but at run time it comes up with this error
run-single:
java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: NamedFile
Exception in thread "main"
Java Result: 1
BUILD SUCCESSFUL (total time: 3 seconds)
import java.util.Scanner;
import java.io.*;
class NamedFileInput
public static void main (String[] args) throws IOException
    int num, square;
    // this Scanner is used to read what the user enters
    Scanner user = new Scanner( System.in );
    String fileName;
    System.out.print("File Name: ");
    fileName = user.nextLine().trim();
    File file = new File( fileName );     // create a File object
    // this Scanner is used to read from the file
    Scanner scan = new Scanner( file );
    while( scan.hasNextInt() )   // is there more data to process?
      num = scan.nextInt();
      square = num * num ;
      System.out.println("The square of " + num + " is " + square);
}his is the code that i used. It is the same as the code you posted for me (on chapter 23 I/O using Scanner and PrintStream) Sorry im just really stuck on this!!

Need help changing the setting to preview entire file names

Using Leopard, I would like to to be able to read the entire name of a file.
For example, my files might say (File 2.....609). What the file is named is File 2 Graphs 6209. How can I set up Leopard to allow me to read the entire file, so I don't have to guess the file?

Ah! I tend to avoid using column view for folders containing items with long names, because it increases the amount of horizontal scrolling needed to see everything, & because I'm usually interested in seeing & sorting items by the non-name columns available in list view.
FWIW, I tried the column view drag handle double click tip on one of the folders containing some of my extra long named items & it does expand to show the entire name, but I don't care for the result: the Finder window expands horizontally so much that it won't all fit within even a 24" widescreen display! So not only do I have to scroll the window's content horizontally to see everything, I have to move the window partially offscreen to do so. That is too much of a chore to make this a very good alternative for long path names.
It occurs to me that there might be a more elegant, subtle, & "it just works" Apple-like solution possible: instead of just abbreviating the displayed item name by replacing enough of the middle characters of the name with an ellipsis to make it fit, it would be cool if this were adaptive & tried first to abbreviate the non-unique parts of the name, relative to all the items in the column. So if say 3 files in a view contained the same 12 character sequence, that sequence would appear with the same abbreviation in each file, more frequently preserving the display of the unique parts of each file name.
Does this make sense?

File name and Date Display as an obj not the data

All,
     The issue that I am having is that when I view a Visio file hosted on SharePoint. The file was created in Visio 2007 and when it is opened by Visio 2007 and Visio Viewer in SharePoint. The file name field object and date
modified object show the information. The issue is when the file is opened by a device that has Visio 2010 the information does not show. Is there something that I can do for these users to have it show correctly.

Hi，
Which way did you open the Visio 2007 file in SharePoint？Opened it in the browser or downloaded it to open？ I had test in my environment. Insert a text box>Add a data/time field, it worked fine both in Visio 2007, 2010.
Thus, let‘s do some test to narrow down the issue’s reason.
1.Download the Visio 2007 file and open it with Visio 2010.
If it worked fine, the issue seems more related to Visio object and sharePoint connection.
If it does not display the information in Visio 2010 by a device client, the issue was more related to Visio 2010 client.
2.Create a new drawing included file name and Date
field in Visio 2010.
If the new drawing displays correct, the issue is more related the original, please try to repair the file or re-create the file name and Date filed.
If the new drawing still displays incorrect, please try to start Visio 2010 in safemode, some third-party add-ins my be casued the issue.
If the issue still exists, try to repair Visio 2010.

Make sure that '''''Print to File''''' isn't selected in the native print dialog box ''(see screenshot below)'' middle-right, and make sure your Printer is selected at the top of that dialog box.
