Various input  for filename

I have a program in java which takes the qualified filename as a string. I don;t want to change the string name every time in the code if I want to do the same processing on a different file. can you please tell me how can i give the user a facility to enter a filename on which i would do this processing and give him the result.
Thanks

Try organizing your code to allow your main class to process an input string.
public class MainClass{
  public static void main(String argv[]){
    String filename = argv[0];
    new MainCode().process(filename);
public class MainCode{
   public MainCode(){}
  public void process(String filename){
}

  • Extending flash: how do I set default values for filenames

    Hi,
    I am trying to set default values for filenames
    <choosefile> and <popupslider>s that will show up when
    my XMLpanel first loads in my jsfl extension file. It seems that I
    can only set default values for textbox items.
    How do I do this for filenames and popups?
    As a workaround, I also tried using a flash object dialog box
    to look like a <choosefile>, or any jsfl command, but then
    how do I return those values back to the XMLpanel that calls them.
    and pass the data back to my jsfl script.
    lemme know if you know a way,

    Create two constants for the Allocate Mode input (right click > create > constant). Place one in the true case of the case structure, and place the other one in the false case. Wire them to the same tunnel (border of the case structure), then wire the tunnel to the Allocate Mode terminal of the AO Config. I don't have Traditional DAQ installed, but that should do it.

  • Error while running a query-Input for variable 'Posting Period is invalid

    Hi All,
    NOTE: This error is only cropping up when I input 12 in the posting period variable selection. If I put in any other value from 1-11 I am not getting any errors. Any ideas why this might be happening?
    I am getting the following error when I try and run a query - "Input for variable 'Posting Period (Single entry, mandatory)' is invalid" - On further clicking on this error the message displayed is as follows -
    Diagnosis
    Variable Posting Period (Single Value Entry, Mandatory) is used as a lower limit (X) and an upper limit () in an interval selection. This limit has the value #.
    System Response
    Procedure
    Enter a different value for variable Posting Period (Single Value Entry, Mandatory). If the value of the other limit is determined by another variable, you can change its value also.
    Procedure for System Administration

    OK.
    Well, if the variable is not used in any interval selection, then I would say "something happened to it".
    I would make a copy of the query and run it to check if I get the same problem with period 12.
       -> If not, something is wrong in the original query (you can proceed as below, if changes to original are permitted).
    If so, then try removing the variable completely from the query and hardcode restriction to 12.
       -> If problem still persists, I would have to do some thinking.
    If problem is gone, then add the variable again. Check.
       -> If problem is back, then the variable "is sick". Only quick thing to do, is to build an identical variable and use that one.
    If problem also happens with the new variable, then it's time to share this experience with someone else and consider raising an OSS.
    Good luck!

    P.S: what fisc year variant are you using?

  • Can not select external input for sound

    can not select external input for sound

    Hey there RoosterMonkey,
    It sounds like you have Soundtrack Pro installed but you cannot select your external audio device as an input. I recommend the troubleshooting steps from the article named:
    Soundtrack Pro 3: Troubleshooting Basics
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht3659
    Update to the latest software versions
    From the Apple () menu, choose Software Update and make sure that you have the most recent updates for your versions of Soundtrack Pro 3, QuickTime, Compressor, Pro Application Support, and other important system files. Installing the latest updates ensures that your software has the latest improvements and enhancements.
    Note: Be sure the application is in the Applications folder and is named Soundtrack Pro before running Software Update.
    Check compatibility and driver versions for third-party devices
    If you're using a third-party sound card, MIDI interface, storage system, control surface, or plug-in, check the support area on the manufacturer's website to be sure that you're using the latest version of the relevant driver or other software for your product. For information on troubleshooting possible issues with Audio Unit plug-ins, go to Soundtrack Pro 3: Troubleshooting Audio Unit plug-in issues.
    Try a different Multitrack Project or Audio File Project
    Sometimes project files can become damaged, causing unexpected behavior in Soundtrack Pro. To create a fresh project, choose File, then New and select Multitrack Project or Audio File. Test to see if the issue is resolved in the new project.
    Delete the User Preferences
    You can resolve many issues by restoring Soundtrack Pro to its original settings. This will not impact your project files. To reset your Soundtrack Pro user preference settings to their original state:
    Quit Soundtrack Pro if it is open.
    In the Finder, choose Go > Go to Folder from the menu bar.
    Type ~/Library/Preferences  in the "Go to the folder" field.
    Remove the "com.apple.soundtrackpro.plist" file from the Preferences folder.
    In the Finder, choose Go > Go to Folder from the menu.
    Type ~/Library/Application Support/Soundtrack Pro  in the "Go to the folder" field.
    Remove the "EffectsCache.plist" file from the Soundtrack Pro folder.
    In the Finder, choose Go > Go to Folder from the menu.
    Type ~/Library/Application Support/Soundtrack Pro/Layouts  in the "Go to folder" field.
    Remove the "Soundtrack Pro.saved.moduleLayout" file from the Layouts folder.
    In the Finder, choose Go > Go to Folder from the menu.
    Type ~/Library/Caches in the "Go to folder" field.
    Remove the "com.apple.audiounits.cache" from the Caches folder.
    Remove receipts and reinstall Soundtrack Pro 3 and Compressor
    Another approach you might consider is reinstalling Soundtrack Pro and Compressor. To do this effectively, you need to remove the applications and their receipts, then install Soundtrack Pro and use Software Update to install additional updates. Compressor gets installed automatically when you install Soundtrack Pro. You don't have to remove everything that was installed with Soundtrack Pro, so follow the steps below to completely reinstall a fresh copy of Soundtrack Pro. Note: Make sure that you have your installation discs handy before beginning.
    In Mac OS X v10.6 Snow Leopard or OS X Lion
    Open the Terminal application and enter the following commands one at a time and an administrator password when prompted. Note: The commands are case sensitive.
    sudo pkgutil --forget com.apple.pkg.Compressor
    sudo pkgutil --forget com.apple.pkg.Qmaster
    sudo pkgutil --forget com.apple.pkg.VideoOutSupport
    sudo pkgutil --forget com.apple.pkg.PSTSharedA
    sudo pkgutil --forget com.apple.pkg.AppleHDVCodec
    sudo pkgutil --forget com.apple.pkg.AppleIntermediateCodec
    sudo pkgutil --forget com.apple.pkg.DSPPublishing
    sudo pkgutil --forget com.apple.pkg.SoundtrackPro
    sudo pkgutil --forget com.apple.pkg.Uncompressed422
    Then, reinstall Soundtrack Pro and Compressor using the following steps:
    Open the Applications folder. Drag the Soundtrack Pro and Compressor applications to the Trash.
    Insert your Logic Studio or Final Cut Studio installation disc and install Soundtrack Pro.
    When finished installing, choose the Apple () menu, then Software Update to update your software to the latest version.
    Open Soundtrack Pro to verify that the issue has been resolved.
    Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
    Cheers,
    Sterling

  • Get input for 100 dynamic fields in a single screen

    Hi all
    I got one requirement wherein i need to accept input for around 100 dynamic fields in a single screen. screen can scroll down if possible.
    Can anyone tell me whether it is possible. if yes please let me have the sample code.
    Thanks
    Ravindra Suvarna

    Ravi,
    Probably a TAB STRIP might help you.
    Seggregate your 100 fields logically, say 5 groups.
    Have a TAB STRIP CONTROL, with 5 tab strips and place 20 fields in each of the tabs. Each tab strip will have a sub screen.
    Regards,
    Ravi

  • Batch input for IQ02 not accepting "yes" for 'POPUP_TO_CONFIRM'

    Hello,
    I wrote a batch input for a transaction (IQ02) and all works fine except one thing:
    -when all data  is entered and SAVE button is pressed, there is an additional pop-up, from an user exit which needs an YES/NO answer.
    The function module used to display the popup is: 'POPUP_TO_CONFIRM'
    I do not manage to press the YES button. This is the data I receive when pressing F1 on YES button:
    Program         SAPLSPO1
    Function          OPT1
    Normally, in batch input, this is the way I pass user-commands:
    PERFORM bdc_dynpro USING 'SAPMIEQ0' '0101'.
    PERFORM bdc_field USING 'BDC_OKCODE' '/00'.
    But it's not working for this particular situation.
    Any ideas?
    Thank you.
    Edited by: Julius Bussche on Jan 5, 2009 2:07 PM
    Quality of subject title improved.

    Hi
    Find out under which condition popups appears.
    for that condition you have to put the following code
    PERFORM bdc_dynpro USING 'SAPLSPO1' ''<SCREEN_NUMBER>'.
    PERFORM bdc_field USING 'BDC_OKCODE' '=OPT1' .
    Hope this helps,

  • Thank youbfor optimizing the touch input for scrolling on my HP Slate 500, why wont the others do the horizontal scrolling feature enables?

    After testing all other available browsers the past month I have arrived at the conclusion that the Firefox browser is the only one that enables touch input for scrolling. Trying to navigate pages without this function using IE, Opera, Safari & Chrome is just tedious. I'm using the Slate as it was intended, business functions especially day to day charting for my patients in an online system.
    The larger tabs for opening new searches & sites. If Microsoft plans on making W8 truly touch enabled they need to take note of what FF has done here. The touch input is limited on W7 but you've succeeded where others have failed.
    3 cheers for FF! I couldn't do my job and document patient progress w/o your intuitive design. Brendan S. - Latham, NY
    I guess the question is why are the others not developing these key features for Windows based slates...are they ignorant or is FF that much further ahead.

    What does this mean? It is happening when I try to publish an OAM for Dreamweaver.
    Also: How can I specify the browser in Edge Animate? It is just going wherever. Are there no Preferences for Edge Animate?
    BTW. Just call it Edge. Seriously. Do you call it Illustrator Draw? Photoshop Retouching?

    No, my file name is mainContent.oam
    My project name is mainContent.an
    This error happens when I try to import into Dreamweaver. Sorry, I wasn't clear on that earlier.
    I thought maybe it was because I had saved my image as a png. So re-saved as a svg, still get the error.
    DO I have a setting is Dreamweaver CC that is wrong? Should I try this in Dreamweaver CS6? I might try that next.
    Why is this program so difficult? I know Flash. I know After Effects. I can work the timeline part just great. It's always in the export that I have problems.

  • Turn Off Distiller Prompting for Filename on MAC like you already can on windows.

    I've posted about this before, but with no useful reaction. There is a documented feature in the Windows Distiller, that would be just as useful on mac, but doesn't exist there. In the Adobe documentation, it's called "Turn Off Prompting for Filename".
    In short, I'd like a way to stop the MAC distiller from showing dialogs that are not needed when controlling it externally, when the options 'ask for pdf file destination' and 'view pdf when using distiller' are turned on by the user, like this is already possible in windows.
    Below is a copy of my original post, with more details.
    Distiller brings up dialog while running from applescript
    Arnt Witteveen - 06:08am Dec 19, 2005 Pacific
    Hi,
    I've read DistillerAPIReference.pdf (and DistillerParameters.pdf) from the developer documentation, and I have not found a way to do what I need: 'override' the distiller setting to ask for the destination filename and to open the pdf in acrobat when it's done. On windows, this does not seem to be a problem, it's documented under "Distiller API for Windows", in the paragraph "How to Turn Off Prompting for Filename". Even better, when sending the command line "/V /O outfile.pdf /J joboptionsfile inputfile" using DM_CMDLINE and WM_COPYDATA, it doesn't seem to bring up the dialog or open it, which is just what I need (even though I see no reason why it doesn't).
    On Mac however, there is no such thing (in fact, the documentation for controlling distiller in this way on mac is very short: 5 mostly empty pages, explaning only that you can start and stop it and pass it a file to distill).
    So, how do I stop the mac distiller from showing dialogs that are not needed when controlling it externally, when the options 'ask for pdf file destination' and 'view pdf when using distiller' are turned on by the user?

    sorry, but the 2880x1800 is hardware; in fact what makes non-optimized sites look (relativly) ugly is that to upscale the graphics to the apparent resolution of everything else each pixel is represented by 4 pixels, and as you know being in graphics, upscaling pictures is generally results in ugly. 
    Back to my point, there's no software to make the display lose 75% of its pixels; you'll either have to use another machine and/or wait for sites to optomize their graphics for the retina displays...which may or may never happen depending on the sites awareness/closeness with Apple's technology

  • GET_FILE_LIST action:Folder & Mask are the mandatory inputs for this action

    hi all,
    Iam using GET_FILE_LIST action to retrieve few files from a folder stored in WEB directory. Folder & Mask are the mandatory inputs for this action to read the files. To get any xml files we can use the Mask value as ".xml". Is there a way or any mask value which would get all the files from the folder and then using a condition or switch I can create a desired sequence based on file type.
    Thanks,
    Gilmour

    Hi Gilmour,
    Try with mask value  *  ("asterisk")
    or
    ("asterisk.asterisk")

  • In Lr 3.6 how can I search for filenames ending with a # character ?

    The text search seems to treat the # character in some mysterious way so as to not select the files that have it in their name. I cannot find any explanation for this in the documentation. Is there some other character(s) that I have to put beside the # to make it register as a normal character ?
    My specific problem is that I need to locate a bunch of files in my catalog that have names ending with a # character. I want to rename those files in a way that removes the trailing # but not other # characters that separate key parts of the file names. If I can't do that then I want to select that group of files and produce .xmp files for them (I don't normally use .xmp files) so that I can rename the files outside Lr and import them again complete with all previous tweaks and metadata.
    I dare say that I would not choose to name files this way if I started again but I've got far too many to change now. 
    There are also too many for me to want to rename them individually in the Metadata panel if I can avoid it.
    I'm using Lr 3.6 on Mac OSX 10.6.8

    You guys beat me to the answer, which I discovered more by accident than good management.
    Firstly, I had used the # characters because they looked good in list views such as in Windows Explorer or the Mac Finder. That was from before I got into using Lr and I was trying and using several different programs to manage my photos. Then I found that trailing # characters prevented Lr from recognizing the number at the "end" of the file name and so I wanted to delete them.
    Secondly, I got into the Lr rename facility initially to replace what I did with Downloader Pro before switching from Windows to Mac and subsequently found that there is no way to delete a trailing character, but it helped establish in my mind that to Lr the "filename" was just the first part of the name before the full stop and the extension (e.g. .cr2 or .nef or .jpg). Try it - there is a "filename" token for setting up a naming structure that ignores the extension and its full stop.
    This was further reinforced in Library Grid View where the filename and the extension are separated and the extension is not displayed.
    So having used F2 (rename) before I got around to playing with the text search I was set up for failure. Looking for {filename ends with #} or {filename ends with #.} failed because it found nothing as none of my files had a # or #. after the filename extension, and looking for {filename contains #} also failed because it found all of my files instead of just those with the trailing #. I wrongly thought that Lr had trouble seeing a # in the text search.
    Now I have been able to find and select all files with a trailing # in the base part of the filename by looking for {filename contains #.} and generate current .xmp files for them. Then I went outside Lr and used a utility file renamer to get rid of the offending # for the image files and the .xmp files in bulk. Then I re-synchronized the folder(s) in Lr to import those renamed files back into Lr along with all of the metadata, and get rid of the old files from the catalog. Had those files been a part of a collection or stack then I suspect that membership of the collection or stack would have been lost but it kept the keywords, ratings, labels, and image tweaks. Then I got rid of the .xmp files again because I prefer to work without them (less clutter and less chance of other software separating them from the image files).
    So much easier than doing it the hard way
    Thanks for your help.
