WebHelp Is Creating Erroneous Filenames

I have a project that was originally named
"a-z_project_revised." I have since renamed the project
"a-z_project_chapter 238." The project file is called
"a-z_project_chapter 238.xpj." When I publish my project, the .hhc,
.hhk, .hhp, .syn, .glo, .cpd, .brs, .ign, .lpd, .log, .phr, .ppf,
.pss, and .stp files are being named "a-z_project_revised.xxx." I
am trying to figure out why this is occurring because I think it is
conflicting with another project that contains similarily named
files. Both projects sit on my Web server.
The problem is the search seems to be working on one project
and not the other, and I am wondering if maybe the projects having
the same named .syn file are in conflict one one another.
Here is the log file. If you look at the top line, you can
see that the project name is one thing, but the destination project
name is another. Why is that? How do I get the destination project
name to match the project name?

The files look the same on both my local drive and the
server.
I am using RoboHelp Pro, version 5.0.2.
The odd thing is if that natural language search to work fine
in both projects on the intranet server, but on our Internet server
the search functionality doesn't work in the other help file that
share the same .syn filename even though the projects are located
in different folders.

How to close pictures that are opened by JAI.create("fileload",filename)

After doing some deletion tests, it seems that all picture I'm loading with
JAI.create("fileload",filename) or JAI.create("filestore",pb) stay open and prevent me from deleting those pictures.
Do you have an idea on how I could close those pictures ?
thank you !
Edited by: dnlfrnc on Feb 13, 2008 10:42 AM

Short answer: you can't if you use JAI.create("fileload",filename) :you can't rely on making a call to the garbage collector, because you can't be sure it will work.
Instead, use the sream operator:
       FileSeekableStream stream = null;
        try {
            stream = new FileSeekableStream(sourceImageFile.getAbsolutePath());
            // use the stream operator because the fileload operator does not allow to release the handle on the opened file
            PlanarImage input = JAI.create("stream", stream);
            // do your stuff
        } finally {
            // close the stream.
            stream.close();
        } Why you don't have any means (besides gc, but I don't call that an option) of releasing the handle on a file you opened with the fileload operator is beyond me, though (especially as this operator is widely used in the tutorials, and thus is bond to end up in a lot of code)

Automatically creating data filename out of date and time information

I read somewhere (in a book, here ?) about a programmer who never keyed in a data filename to save his data file. He just used the system date and time to create his filename. For example: now would be 20028141032.dat (2002, August 14, 10:32 am)
I am looking to do something similar. I do want to add a spot of text after the date and time and save it as *.xls.
This way when you have a long list of data files, if you sort by name, they are sequentially in order.
Thanks for any help.
Terry

Hi Terry,
You can use "Seconds to Date/Time" Funtion along with "File Dialog" Function to accomplish your task. You Unbundle the cluster from the "Seconds to Date/Time" with Year, Month, Day, Hour and Minute Information Convert and Append into One String. You Can add Pre or Post text to this String. Wire this to File Dialog Box and it will Pop up the Window With File Name in it as Default. Also the extemsion of the file name can be specified here. The User has Option to change this or accept this default name.
I have attached an Example Vi to Illustrate this(LV6.1) Take a Look. To Use this Just Wire the Path Information to your Saving Functional VI. Also the Vi Checks if File Exists or Dialog Box is Cancelled. And You may Build Functionality for the
se if you need them.
Good Luck.

EEM variable for show command output and create a filename

I'm configuring EEM applet, example CPU High event. When it triggers the event, action is "show tech | redirect tftp://x.x.x.x/showtechoutput". The EEM event is working fine and triggered the show tech output into the tftp server. My question is, i'd like to add maybe date/time in the filename so it will not overwrite the file everytime there is a triggered event.
The EEM event variable i'm seeing in doc is "_event_pub_sec" but it won't work when i add after or before the filename. any idea?
thanks in advance ...

Adding $_event_pub_sec to the end of the filename should work:
action 1.0 "show tech | redirect tftp://x.x.x.x/showtech.$_event_pub_sec"
That said, TFTP is very particular about how files can be created. Typically, a TFTP server will require the file to exist before a remote host can copy to it. If the filename changes each second, this will not work. Using a protocol like FTP or SCP may work better.

Creating a filename based upon entered fields

Using Acrobat 7, I have two fields that I would like to draw upon to create a unique filename under which the document will be stored.
Field #1: Name.Last (no formatting)
Field #2: Date.From (formatted as mm/dd/yyyy)
If #1 = "Smith" and #2 = "02/03/2008", the unique name created would be "080203-smith".
So I need to concatenate and then store.
Any suggestions?
Steve

As Earlierly suggested, the Outputs PS from the ReadPropSet method does not match the fields defined in the init method.
And One More thing as i observed
var fileLoc = "c:example.xml"; ( As u Declared)
should be
var fileLoc = "c:\example.xml";
Just Try Once :-)

Creating weird filenames

Hi all,
After I read this article, http://www.dwheeler.com/essays/fixing-u … names.html (with which I actually agree in most points), I wondered how one can create files with such weird names.
I tried a lot, but did not succeed in it.
I am interested in this, because I am writing a php script that will parse user input to "ls". Allthough I guess I will just forbid all weird filenames and restrict them to the Portable Filename Character Set, I still was interested (just for the heck of it).
I guess such things can be done with C quite easily, but is it possible with Bash? Have any of you ever experimented with black arts like this?
Eager to know about your dirty hacks
jocom

You can specify any character in bash by the following syntax $'\xHH' (HH is the hexadecimal code of the character). Some specific syntax are also supported.
Some funny file names
touch beep$'\x07'
give a file name with a beep in it (echo * will give you an audible beep; ls seems to filter these funny characters).
touch Hello$'\n'World
give a file name with a newline in it (again visible by echo *).

Can java create unique filenames?

DataOutputStream out = new DataOutputStream(new FileOutputStream(fileName));
String fileName = "c:/" + Integer.toString(stuff) + ".txt";
out.write(stuff);
The reason that this is important, is because I want to be able to create a unique filename each time I run the program (which records important data). I dont want the data overwritten within the same file over and over again.
currently my program looks like this:
DataOutputStream out = new DataOutputStream(new FileOutputStream("c:/data.txt"));
out.write(stuff);
each time I run the program however, the data.txt file will just get overwritten. How can I make my program resemble the one above without Java rejecting the codeing?

I defer to DrClap - it does seem to work. Usingthe following codeimport java.io.*;
public class Test {
    public static boolean createTempFile (String prefix, String suffix) {
        try {
            File.createTempFile(prefix, suffix);
        catch (IOException e) {
            return false;
        return true;
    public static void main( String [] args ) {
        System.out.println(Test.createTempFile("foo", "bar"));
        System.out.println(Test.createTempFile("bar", "foo"));
        System.out.println(Test.createTempFile("foo", "bar"));
}I get files of the form
fooNNNNNbar created. So my question is when would his EVER throw an IOException?

After Leopard install "unable to create /folder/filename..."

I have upgraded my MacBook and iMac to Leopard, no problems. However, on my iMac (only), in many applications I get an error message when I'm trying to save a file. For example, in iPhoto if I export to desktop I get an error message "unable to create.... /folder/directory filename". Same thing if I export to an already existing folder. However, files I make and save with Word etc. work fine. Is there some selective locking device on Apple?

Hello Rollie2t,
Welcome to the HP Forums.
I see that you are having an issue with installing the printer on to your Windows Vista computer.
Please make sure that you do NOT have the usb cable connected to the printer and the computer when doing the download and the installation. You will be prompted as to when to connect the usb cable during the installation so please do NOT connect it before hand.
I also suggest that you disable the Windows Firewall and any anti virus protection before attempting to download the software and drivers.
Here is the link for the HP Deskjet Full Feature Software and Drivers.
If the troubleshooting does not help resolve your issue, I would then suggest calling HP's Technical Support to see about further options for you. If you are calling within North America, the number is 1-800-474-6836 and for all other regions, click here: click here.

Why we create Logical filename what is the significance.

Hi Friends,
What is the use of Logical file name. Where we use it.
Thanks&Regards,
Naren.

importance of LOGICAL FILE :
lets say we are in development server and the application files are in /int/D01/...../temp/file1
to read the file FILE1 above ,we have to give total path(we call it as PHYSICAL PATH) to the OPEN DATASET statement.
lets say we are working in the production server and the same file may be in different location. to read the file,again USER has to give the total path.then only OPEN DATASET can find the file.
/int/P01/...../temp
if we use LOGICAL PATH,
we are creating a logical path for a particular physical path.
lets say
zlog_path : /int/D01/...../temp/
we will create ZLOG_PATH as logical path and assign the value to that as above(the physical path).
lets say in production,
we will create the SAME LOGICAL PATH NAME but the physical path name will differ
zlog_path : /int/P01/...../temp/
the advantage here is,
user will give only the logical path and file name on the screen. he dont give the full physical path where ever he executes his report either in development or in Production.
we create a logical path using FILE transaction.
Re: logical path

Create a filename based on form content

Hello,
I always have a hard time explaining my question's but here goes.
I have a button which saves a form once filled out. I would like to take the thinking out of this when it comes to naming the file and it create the name based on a numerical field in the form (in this case a serial number). The example would be something like 00000_Inspection Form.pdf. I am certain this can be done with javascript but not being a programmer, I have no idea where to begin with this. I have a variable set up but no idea how to act upon it.
thanks in advance.

Create unique filename by auto-increment path

I needed a program that would take in a pathname, see if the file name already existed at that location, and if so it needed to auto-increment the file name. I wanted it to work the way windows inherently does when you copy a file of the same name into a location because that seems the most natural to me. I was running into problems with the ftp functions in the internet toolkit becaues if the local file already exists at the path you input, it just doesn't perform the get files function.
I discovered after searching the forums that a lot of people run into this all the time and usually the way they get a unique file name is by adding the date and time to the end of the file. This is both effective and informative, but results in unnecessarily long and ugly file names.
So I made a subVI and I wanted to share it with you guys. Hope someone finds it useful. Let me know what you think.
[will work for kudos]

Unique File Name.vi ‏34 KB

I took your suggestions
- appended (T) to the check existence input description to indicate its default position
- Created a "New Path?" output that idicates whether a new path was created (T) or if the inputted path was simply passed through (F)
And for all the users who dont have 2009... Here are some older versions for you
enjoy

Converting HLP to Webhelp - TOC has erroneous chm url

Hello,
We're looking to move from old winhelp (.hlp) projects made with an old (circa 1998) version of Robohelp, to html-based webhelp made with RoboHelp 11. I was amazed to see that you could import a winhelp project by specifying an hpj file. The conversion seem to go ok, but most of the entries in the new table of contents looked like they were trying to go to some other chm file (which is weird since we didn't use chm files before and I wasn't converting to chm based help). The TOC links are labeled as "Remote URLs" instead of local html files. For some reason it looks like it's treating most of the topics on the TOC as external topics, which they are not. Has anyone seen this before and know an easy fix?
Many thanks,
-Keith

In Snippets my site hosts an article written some time ago about converting WinHelp. Hope it helps.

Calling Webhelp over #id or #filename - still supported?

Hi all,
is used to be possible to call the starting page of a Webhelp and hand over the topic ID or file name of a topic using a hash.
Examples:
index.htm#123
index.htm#my_folder/my_topic.htm
Is this still supported? I recently had problems but I am not sure whether this feature was officially dropped or whether there are any other problems with the project.
Robert

Hi Robert
To my knowledge, the topic ID method you are stating was never a feature. Only the hash+PathAndFileName was.
Wondering here if you are confusing the WebHelp API method of calling Context Sensitive Help? I believe the WebHelp API method does use topic IDs, but they are called in a slightly different way. Something like this:
javascript:RH_ShowHelp(0,'HelpFolder/SomeFile.htm>SomeWindow', HH_HELP_CONTEXT, TopicIdHere)
Cheers... Rick

Lightroom creating EXTRA filename-1.xmp sidecar?

I just happened to look (with Windows Explorer) in a folder of CR2 files that LR is managing, and I see the following:
20110213-00491-1.xmp
20110213-00491.CR2
20110213-00491.xmp
20110213-00492.CR2
20110213-00492.xmp
20110213-00493.CR2
20110213-00493.xmp
20110213-00494.CR2
20110213-00494.xmp
20110213-00495-1.xmp
Why do I have two XMP files for some CR2 files? In some cases I have TWO sidecars (-1.xmp and -2.xmp). I've checked the file contents, and in general the only difference is a change in a parameter or two, and the dates match some point when I might have edited the file.
The first thing I thought of was that the original XMP was read-only and this was LR's attempt to bypass the problem, but I checked the file permissions and ownership and both are identical.
What's going on here?

Assuming you didn't have a -1.cr2 file at some point, and assuming the xmp file wasn't written by some other program, I'd say this is due to a bug in Lr.
I have seen Lr think it needs to use -1 for uniqueness, when it's not necessary (or -2...), although I've never seen it with xmp files.
I've personally seen it when renaming source files, but I've also heard about it during export. Add xmp to the list?

Create Filename from Data within IDOC

Good afternoon, All
In PI 7.0 we are sending an IDOC to a File. The XSL mapping between the two creates a structure like the following:
<resultset>
<row>
<fieldOut>xxxxx</fieldOut>
</row>
<resultset>
Content Conversion is then used on the outbound File adapter to create a .TXT file that is picked up for further process.
I now have the requirement to NAME the resulting .TXT file based upon information within the original IDOC.
I've tried Variable Substitution but it appears that this only applies to the resulting mapped results and not the original payload.
Any help that you could give me would be greatly appreciated.
Regards,
Chad
