Windows File Attributes in ZIP file

Is there a way to transfer the file and folder attributes when zipping them using the Add to ZIP function in LabVIEW?  I have a directory with some hidden and some read only files, but it looks like the zip function in LabVIEW ignores these.  I can see why they wouldn't have an input for that for cross platform compatibility, but the build should at least take a look at the existing attributes and use those if in the Windows OS.
Is there any other zip utilities written for LabVIEW that could accomplish what I need to do?
I'm using 8.5 right now, but checked it in 2009 with same results.
Thanks!

Forgot to look there.  It works nice.  It is a little slower then NI's version, but does what I want.  Is NI planning on updating their ZIP API's?
Thanks!

  • Windows file attributes not preserved

    Hi,
    When Windows(XP) clients connect to file shares (from a 10.4.7 server) and open the Properties dialog for a file, they are able to set the various Attributes (Read-only, Hidden, Archive).
    However, on re-opening the Properties dialog, they find that the attribute settings they have made have not been preserved. (ie. All attributes checkboxes are unchecked.)
    Does anybody know if there are any settings I need to change on the server to enable support for Windows file attributes?
    Thanks in advance,
    Rob.

  • Question about Windows File Explorer and offline attribute display

    In previous releases of Windows (including Windows 8), Windows File Explorer would display a small "x" icon if the offline file attribute was set.  In Windows 8.1, Windows File Explorer no longer displays the "x" icon if the offline
    file attribute is set.  Is there a reason this behavior was changed?  Is there an option to get the old behavior of displaying the "x" icon?

    Hello Ed Winn,
    What ‘x’ icon do you mean?
    Please share us the screenshots to compare.
    Based on my test, I can’t find the ‘x’ icon in the offline folder both in Windows 7 and Windows 8.1.
    Best regards,

  • Get windows file attribute?

    Is it possible to read the Windows file attribute "Owner" (or others, for that matter)?
    I'm writing a program that searches through a network folder and finds files that fit a certain criteria. When it finds it, it writes the name to an output file. I'd like to have the "Owner" in the output file, so I can easily see who the culprits are.
    Thanks.

    ikb,
    There's an RFC on it (outstanding for only six bluddy years): http://bugs.sun.com/view_bug.do;jsessionid=ef75e3d144bc88fba12783a55cf?bug_id=6309963 So I wouldn't hold my breath!
    On any of uncle Bill's monstrosities: You can use JNI to call the native windows API.
    On an operating system: You can use JNI to examine the inode.
    In either case I think it's best to "wrap" the API calls in C/++ library which exposes the most granular possible interface to your java application(s)... thus reducing the amount/complexity of platform specific code in your java application... and pushing the bulk of the implementation realities into an environment which is equipped to deal with platform specifics...
    If you require (and it sounds like you do) bulk file system information I'm imagineering a FileSystemIterator: which would do a breadth-first recursive directory descent... It's next method would return an INode object... because the unix file system is more feature rich, so it'd be easier to stuff winblows files into an INode's than it would unix files into a winblow structure. You might also have a DirectoryIterator which iterates the INode's in a given directory.
    Your C/++ libary(s) won't ever be platform portable... they will have there hands full being "version portable"... and that's really all that is required.
    Just an idea...
    Cheers. Keith

  • Windows File Properties vs. Content Services Properties

    Hi.
    On behalf of a customer I am evaluating Windows file properties vs. CS file properties.
    Client Environment: Windows XP SP2, O-Drive.
    Rightclick a File stored on O (O-Drive, Content Services).
    a Props. Dialog shows up, the first tab is General*. It shows several file
    properties among others the following:
    - Last Access Date: This always shows Wed. 1 Jan 1986 00:00:00
    Does this correspond to any content services file property? If so, why
    is it always 1-jan-1986 00:00.00 and does not change? Is it a bug?
    - Checkboxes Write protected* / Archive* / Hidden*
    Do these correspond to any cs file property? Do these have any effect?
    (I tried write protected, but it did not work as expected, I was able
    to overwrite the file) Bug or Feature?
    If these checkboxes do not work, could these be disabled through O-Drive,
    otherwise users might get confused...
    Regards, Tom
    * (I don't know the exact english labels as I am working on a german client... so
    I translated the german labels - sorry)

    Hi. Sure, here's some collateral information:
    We are evaluating Content Services for several customer projects.
    During a presentation I held 2 weeks ago a customer asked exactly
    those questions and I had to admit I could not answer.
    So I retried on our test instance and checked the docu and still
    could not get a clue how windows attributes and cs attributes correspond.
    Then I asked MJS during last weeks workshop he did not know exactly either.
    Hence I am asking on the forum.

    Hi Ganesh,
    this error message tells you that there is no user in your active directory that has the userPrincipalName xxxx.
    The SSO22KerbMapModule works as follows.
    1. It receives a SAP Logon Ticket from the WebDAV request.
    2. If valid the SAP username is extracted. In your case the SAP username is xxxx.
    3. It then searches for a user in AD. It does so using the attribute in the ini-file that has been specified to contain the SAP username. In your case the SAP username should be identical with the userPrincipalName.
    So you have to make sure that the portal user id (j_user) is mapped to the same AD user attribute  that is specified in the ini-file .
    Best regards,
    Andre

  • Question about change in Windows File Explorer in 8.1

    Windows File Explorer in Windows 8 (and previous releases) would display an icon if the file had the offline attribute set.  Windows 8.1 File Explorer does not show an "offline" icon if the file's offline attribute is set.  Is there

  • Windows File CS Content Crawler - How to change crawl method?

    Hi,
    I have encountered an odd issue. I am using a Windows File CS Content Crawler to pull in some PDF files from a remote folder.
    However I noticed the Windows File CS Content Crawler is crawling in the document title rather than the actual PDF filename.
    I have checked the admin screens and I cannot find any way to tell my Windows File CS Content Crawler portlet to grab filenames and use these as the file display name when crawled in.
    The business clients do not use the document title and meta features and will not use them in the future so the way the current Windows File CS Content Crawler portlet crawls documents into the portal will not work as most will not have a document title or will have some default internal name.
    For example the PDF documents I am crawling in have Document Title's that have no relevance to the document filename.
    We are only interested in the filename and not the document title (however we may use the field in the future for meta information). Apart from doing some development work to make a custom crawler is there any other way to change the behaviour of the Windows File CS Content Crawler.
    I had to go into each document property in portal and modify the name field to the correct filename as it was using the value found in the Document Title field (incorrect).
    This seems wrong to me, I can understand using the meta data information contained in files to do the crawling and make searching better however how do you do this with a PDF file that you cannot search against inside portal anyway?!

    You can acomplish by changing the Global Document Property Map.
    I don't have the specific screen in front of me so this is from memory.
    Change the Name property to File name
    Change the Title property to File name
    You might have to experiment a bit with some test documents.

  • Bridge(CS3) conflict with Windows file explorer

    Bridge will crash on me at least twice a day. I use Bridge and Windows file explorer simultaneously copying and moving files across a network. When Bridge quits I sometimes lose my network connection and have a lot of trouble re-connecting.
    I have done the usual delete preference, trash cache etc., nothing seems to be working.

    Not sure what is going on there, but have a suggestion. You are increasing your odds of Bridge crashing, and trashing the cache, if you move too fast. When in Bridge wait for the spinning arrow in lower left corner to stop (it is building the thumbs) before changing folders.
    Don't see any correlation between network connection and Bridge crashing. Perhaps if you have a slow computer you are overloading it with tasks and it can not keep up. Minimize programs running at same time.
    Also, run task manager and see what the processor is doing. If CPU useage goes up markedly that will confirm the problem.

  • Can I partition a hard drive so that one partition is for windows files and the other is for time machine backups?

    I have a 1TB WD passport that currently contains windows files e.g photos, documents, etc. Can I partition it so that one partition contains these files and the other partition is used for time machine backups? Also, how do I change the partition system on the hard drive so that it uses the GUID partition system?
    Thanks in advance.

    Yes, you can, though you need to format and partition the drive from the scratch.
    1) back up your PC data on other drive.
    2) partitioning your drive into 2 partitions with Disk Utility.
    3) format one partition by Mac OS extended (journaling) for Time Machine, the other by exFAT for PC data.
    4) restore PC data on exFAT partitioned drive.

  • Query on integrating windows file server into SAP KM using WEBDAV

    hi
    I have sucessfully integrated windows file server into SAP KM using WEBDAV. I have query in it regarding the possible validation against the portal Database user. Can we configure such that the user comparison happens for LDAP as well as database user. Have anyone configured such a scenario?
    Regards,
    Ganesh N

    Hi Ganesh,
    this should work in principle.
    However you would need a user in Active Directory for each user in the portal database that should connect to the file server if you are using the SSO22KerbMap Module as I assume.
    In my whitepaper I have mentioned this for the internal user index_service that does only exist in the portal database.

  • Windows file sharing can no longer work after tiger upgrade

    hi guys, ive been searching the web to find a cure on my problem for a long time now, but still no success, hope someone could help me out.
    ok heres my problem, before the upgrade, file sharing with windows is perfect, with no problems at all, but when i upgraded one of our mac to tiger, windows file sharing is not working anymore, i cant connect or see my windows xp computer on the network and vice versa, windows cannot see my mac with tiger on the network.
    Our other 2 macs here running in panther are fine( meaning, windows file sharing is working)
    Now we've bought a new computer which is a mac pro with fresh install of leopard, i setup the windows file sharing, but i was surprised that i cant see my windows xp box too on the network, and vice versa, the pc cant see my mac pro too on the network, whats wrong with tiger and leopard file sharing???? please help me, im so frustrated cant make it to work. i know, my pc computer has nothing to do with it, coz i can still connect to a mac with panther os. hope someone can help me fix this... please..

    This site has some information on file sharing and printer sharing between Windows and Macs for various combinations of OSs. The Leopard repository isn't quite as mature as the Tiger repository, but there's a lot of good information at this site. Hopefully, it will be helpful to you in resolving your Windows/Mac issues.

  • Bug? Folders created by transmission is read-only to Windows file sharing

    It's a nice thing that transmission is supported in the LenovoEMC version of firmware. The thing is, folders created by this transmission are read-only, which means file can't be added, deleted nor modified from Windows file sharing (They are still be deleted with transmission though, but that's irrelavant).
    From my experience, this issue is caused by the value of unmask not properly set up in the settings.json file. This file can be modified when transmission is not running, but I didn't find a way to stop transmission from running / restart itself even after being killed from SSH.
    Please help.

    You have to have root access (which will void your warranty) to modify settings.json, that's why I wish Lenovo can come up with an official solution.
    If you don't mind viod the warranty, then after you stop transmission, you can log in as root via putty, then use nano to modify settings.json as mentioned below:

  • When installing Windows 7 using Bootcamp, expanding windows files gets stuck at 65%?

    I was installing Windows 7 Home Premium 64 bit on my Macboom Pro Retina with Bootcamp, and when it reached the "expanding windows files" stage, it got stuck at 0%. I waited a few minutes, and the percentage began to increase until it got to 65%, at which it stopped again. I left it for a while, but after coming back nearly an hour later, it was still stuck at 65%, so I canceled the installation by clicking the close button of the installation window. It froze after that. I could move my cursor, but I couldn't click anything. I got impatient and held down the power button to shut it down manually. When I restarted the Mac, it played the normal startup sound then went to a black screen with a blinking dash symbol in the upper left corner. It's now stuck on this screen. I'm scared I might have really screwed up my computer. What do I do?

    Edit: Fixed it by just holding down the option key when it restarted. Don't know why I didn't think of that before. I also removed the partial Windows download and the whole Windows disc partition using Bootcamp.
    I think the reason why it didn't work is because I used an OEM version of Windows 7, which is to say I bought the licence key off of some website for $35 and they emailed me with the key and an .iso of Windows 7. I read somewhere that using OEMs with Bootcamp is not recommended. But that leads me to another problem - I really do want Windows on my Mac since I have some programs that would only run on Windows and I bought PhotoShop Elements 12 for the Windows platform and to switch platforms I would need to upgrade to 13, which costs almost as much as buying the original. And I don't want to go buy a proper Windows installation disc, that would mean wasting the $35 I already spent.
    So is there any way I can actually install Windows safely with my OEM version of it?

  • Windows 7 Pro 64 bit Expanding Windows FIles, reboots

    Trying to do clean install of Windows 7 Pro 64 bit to Lenovo Thinkpad  X140e laptop.  I boot up the DVD, get to windows advanced install, add AMD AHCI driver from CD and start installation. Anywhere from 7% to 70% completion of the "Expanding
    Windows Files" the laptop reboots with out displaying an error and because the install is not complete shows at "BOOTMGR is missing" message upon restart.

    I received an answer form someone in the Lenovo Support Community Forum.  Because this machine was a Preload Windows 8 with UEFI BIOS, he suggested opening a command prompt in the windows GUI installer (Shift -F10), run DISKPART with the CLEAN ALL option
    and wiping the disk.  Even though I had deleted all disk partitions via the Windows GUI installer, apparently there was a hidden partition causing a problem with Windows 7 install.  After wiping the disk, I went back to the Windows installer and
    clicked Next. It copied and completely expanded all the windows files!
