Is there a maximum size or the limit of text file during storage and data transfer?

HI -.

We used WriteExtFile and AppendExtFile to store data in a CSV text file in a data folder in the same location as the executable files of Authorware.

WriteExtFile ("data\\"^"Variable_Names.txt", Survey_Variable_Names)

AppendExtFile ("data\\Survey_DATA.txt", Survey_Data)

As a general rule, we always put our executable files on the hard disk of the computer (c) due to some issues we had with an incompatible network drive in the past.  Have the files on the C: drive, eliminated any network problem.  Our data has accumulated would be always stored on the C: drive as well.

Now, we need to store a backup copy of the data on a server, on the C: drive.

My question is: is there is a maximum file size that can be "read in" and then "written" using Authorware?

My thought was to use ReadExtFile to read the content of the 'Survey_DATA.txt' file and use WriteExtFile to write these same data on a drive on the network, by adding the date and time at the end of the name of the file as a backup file.

I used this logic, which is working to write on the "P": network drive

WriteExtFile ("P:\\Survey_Project\\BackupData\\DATA_BACKUP_"^Backup_Date^"_"^Backup_Time^".txt", Survey_Backup_Data)

Of course, the size of the original text on the C: drive file will continue to grow because "AppendExtFile" is used to add the data of every investigation file in the data file (CSV, each record on its own line).  If the size of the file we will read again (ReadExtFile) will also continue to grow.

Is there a limit to what we can read in and then write back?

Thank you!

Scott

My apologies, it has been a few years...

CopyFile is a function that you can load the WinAPI.u32

Once loaded, use it like this

Success: = CopyFile (FileLocation ^ "Sourcefile.txt",)

Destination ^ "DestinationFilename.txt") "

Remember that you must include WinAPI.u32 with your packed files.

  • Is there a way to prevent the deletion of a file during CHECKIN services?

    My scenario: I am creating a service that takes the current latest revision and creates a new one, using the same metadata and content. I'm almost done. The lack total that when I called the service (CHECKIN_SEL) the file whose path I provided in the parameter primaryFile:path is deleted. Of course, I can create a copy in the ~ temp directory, but I would rather prevent deletion. I have also observed that the log contains a line:

    (internal) / 6...    Files to remove: /app/domains/content/ucm/cs/vault/document/2001.zip

    I tried to analyze the service and I found the intradoc.server.DocServiceHandler.addFiles () method. This method calls another method, deleteFilesInDeleteList, in which the files appear to be deleted. It is, however, also an event filter, preDeleteFilesInDeleteList, triggered. So I created a filter code to undo the deletion, if certain conditions are met. The code looks as follows:

    public int doFilter (workspace workspace, DataBinder dataBinder,
    ExecutionContext executionContext) throw DataException,
    ServiceException {}
    BinderSnifferFilter.traceVerbose ("PreDeleteFilesFilter");
    Vector v = SharedObjects.getOptList ("dontdelete");
    If (v == null) {}
    return 0;
    }
    String prevID = dataBinder.getLocal ("prevID");
    If (v.contains (prevID)) {}
    BinderSnifferFilter.traceVerbose (prevID + "is confined (-1)" ");
    ((Map) executionContext.getCachedObject ("lockedIDsList")) .put (prevID, "1");
    Returns - 1;
    }
    BinderSnifferFilter.traceVerbose (prevID + "is not confined (0)" ");
    return 0;
    }

    Tracing orders help to confirm that the filter returns-1, I also found this thread:Re: what event of java filter is to remove which mentions the updated object cache of lockedIDsList .

    However, none of this seems to prevent deletion.

    I also tried to find a class that adds the "" files to remove: ' message in the log, without success. "

    Finally, I tried to lock the file by changing the owner/group/permissions in the file system. Curiously, the service has failed (the system could not read during CHECKIN), but in the end, the file has been deleted in any case.

    have you tried to change binder.m_tempFiles? You should be able to change the vector before cleaning module is called.

  • Hi, my places.sqlite file size is 30 720 KB I reached the maximum size, is there a maximum size for this. Visited links are is more changing color.

    Hello
    My places.sqlite file size is 30 720 KB I reached the maximum size, is there a maximum size for this.
    Suddenly the visited links don't change is no longer the font color, that I prepare for an exam, I need visited issues to change color, to follow up on issues that I ended. But if I delete a few days of history, then again once, most visited links change color and then it stops, it seems that something is getting full and not able to accommodate more? Why my visited links don't change color after a number of visits? I would like to make a back up of the file places.sqlite. So I tried everything to remove the profile, uninstalling reinstalling, creating a new profile, and then copy paste places.sqlite etc, but as mentioned after a few visits, visited links is no longer change color, if I delete a few days in history and then a few visits is again change color and then stop again, so what should I increase so that my quota of visited links is increased , I also tried tweaking about: config and there has been no result. Although I was not really convinced that _pages growing brower.history_max (don't remember the name, but I'm sure you get the idea) will help.
    Seems that while my visited links change color, quota is met and only if I delete the history of a few days will I get some links most visited to change color. Can someone enlighten us? As mentioned that my places.sqlite file size is 30 720 KB so I think maybe this has something to do with it? Would be very grateful if someone could help me. Thank you.

    Sorry it is not looking good.

    1. Unlike bookmarks history is not saved in Firefox.
    2. There is a possibility using Windows.
    3. Sync is not expected to back up things until the synchronization server
    4. If places.sqlite does not sort itself you may have to re-create remove it. You will lose your history, but can still access indirectly IF you have saved a copy of the appropriate
    5. Different databases to try to create new profiles
    1. History
      is rather less robust than bookmarks, you should deliberately somehow return it upward, but it's too late now
    2. Earlier versions of Windows
      This is really the last chance. Make sure you have some places.sqlite you saved. Always before and after any attempt to restore the backup. Windows must be able to provide a previous version. One of these versions may be usable as is; or can be used after a repair with housekeeping. Of course, this is not the latest version but it should help.
    3. Sync is not a server backup service.
      Sync is intended to save on another device, no backup is the fact that the second device then contains synchronized information. IIRC Sync development ceased, and the replacement when available may include a server backup option.
    4. Recreate the database of bookmarks (including history)
      Unfortunately, recess can only use saved bookmarks, there is no saved history to use. Once the database is re-created, it will continue to store the history but it loses the existing history. This time take steps to save on a regular basis.
    5. Use the new profiles for database testing.

    To simplify comparison of the results of the database different files create one or more new additional profiles. Then try to smash the places.sqlite file into the test profile with any other places.sqlite, you want to try. Allows you to directly compare the databases, without seeking to use sync and without changing the Firefox profile work unnecessarily. You can keep a reference profile of studies with the best of the profiles of any shows results of history; According to the best recreated or corrupted database is.
    • Use the Profile Manager to create and delete profiles Firefox
    • CARE, do not rename or delete profiles created once or use anything other than empty folders when they are created. Don't nest in the other profiles. (At least until you know exactly how it behaves - post back if you never consider such actions)

    Hello Neev,

    There is no coded limit hard for contacts in address book to my knowledge. As long as the device has enough memory, you can add as many contacts as you like.

    Just keep in mind that you don't want to let yourself get too low for some reason any.

  • Change the maximum size of the JVM heap to 1024 gives error

    Change the maximum size of the JVM heap to 1024 gives an error.

    Environment:

    CF9
    Windows 2003 R2 Sp2 operating systems
    XEON PROCESSOR
    RAM 2 GB

    After the installation of ColdFusion, one of the parameters that gets changed is:
    Server settings > Java and JVM > (MB) 1024 maximum JVM heap size
    ColdFusion Application service does not start with this setting. A file of errors is created in \ColdFusion9\runtime\bin\hs_err_pid1234.log (where 1234 number changes). The details of the log file are long so soon stick a sample.


    Arguments for the JAVA virtual machine are:
    Java.args =-Server-Xmx1024m - Dsun.io.useCanonCaches = false - XX: MaxPermSize = 192 m - XX: + UseParallelGC-Dcoldfusion.rootDir={application.home}/... /-Dcoldfusion.libPath={application.home}/... / lib - Dcoldfusion.classPath={application.home}//lib/updates, {application. Home} /... / lib {cation.home} / app... /Gateway/lib /, {application. Home} /... / wwwroot/Web-INF/Flex/Jars, {application. home} /... / wwwroot/Web-INF/cfform/Jars

    The JVM max 1024 m is one of the commonly recommended changes. Why change the maximum FMV of 512 m prevents ColdFusion from running?

    It is indeed a strange problem. Something does not seem right/normal.

    I did some digging and found a blog entry potentially useful:

    http://iamgoat.com/post/804922016/ColdFusion-application-server-wont-start-after-Windows

    It looks just like your problem, but it is true, it offers a quite specific problem/solution, that may not apply.

    Here's another question: are you looking in the \runtime\logs directory? The log files it may show more information on the problem, maybe before or after the time that develop these logs of PID? They may be secondary to another primary problem. Search specifically for the OutOfMemory string in the log files.

    If that can't find anything, I would suggest another thought: consider changing the JAVA virtual machine. I see you are using 1.6_0_14. There are several points between it and the last _21 you can try.

    Finally, a thought more to consider: since this is the Hotspot compiler which reports the error (SH in hs_err_pidnnnn.log), it is possible that the addition of a switch to turn off Hotspot, just to go beyond that, could give a different error message with perhaps more information. In the following (or the CF admin, if we in Standard mode or server), try to add - Xint.

    Let us know if any help.

  • HP Jet 13-c002dx: the maximum size of the map of adapters support

    I'm sorry to repeat a question already asked the existing question was marked as "resolved", but has not answered the question.

    The question was: what is the maximum size of the microSD, supported by this device? The answer, in so many words, was, 'well, it really works with the adapters of 64 GB card. I have not tested with the 128 GB card, so I don't know. »

    The original question still received no reply, which was what is the maximum size supported. What is 64 GB? Or is this 128 GB? (And the limitations of size due to hardware, software, or both together? Format SDXC UHS-1 the so-called supports more 128 GB, even if perhaps not for micro size?)

    Best Buy could not find this information. I was not able to find a certain answer online either.

    I bought a map of UHS - 1 128 GB adapters and don't want to remove the package unless I know WITH CERTAINTY that the device will support it. Otherwise I'll lose $80 + $. At the moment, with her, sealed in the package, I can always take back and exchange it for a smaller card.

    Thanks for your help.

    I just, I couldn't believe that this little piece of information that is important has not been printed in the user's Guide. Worse still, no one seems to know the answer - not the Geek Squad at Best Buy (for which I pay), not here on the forum or in the HP Solutions guide. Finally, I appealed to someone higher in the chain (I won't say how, because I don't want their flooded of calls!), because it really was an oversight in the User Guide. Less than an hour, I received a phone call and was corrected thanks to a support person.

    Thank you, HP! I think that they won't really the extra mile to help me solve this problem.

    Therefore, the maximum size that this HP 13-c002dx stream will support 64 GB. I took the card of 128 GB unopened back to Best Buy today and I bought the 64 GB.

    (Advice to people looking for a computer/phone/Tablet Accessories: do your homework before shopping at Best Buy.) They will tell you anything to make the sale.)

  • the maximum size of the data store in ESXi 4

    What is the maximum size of the image (in pixels) a height that supports the Muse? I noticed that if the photo is too high, reduce the Muses.

    Thank you

    If you place an image with a height or width greater than 2048 pixels - in Muse - Muse will scale the image down proportionately, limiting the larger size to 2048.

    However, if you want to use the picture to its original size, you can move the image to the desired size by dragging handles to resize, or by entering values for height and width in the strip control on top. After that, go to the active panel and locate the image, then right-click on this image in the active panel and choose "import of large size. Which would bring the image lost the original image information.

    Hope that gives you clarity on what you wanted to know.

    What is the maximum size of the LUN vmfs3 and vmfs5?

    Just to add

    In VMFS 3, you may have a data to 64, but this store will be on does not include more than 2 TB.

    This means that you will use 32 2 TB LUN 1 data store. It is not recommended. 1 LUN. bulk loose any data store.

    Where with VMFS 5 you can creat a TB 64 logic unit number (if storage supports) and do a data store.

    Keep the best ratio of 1:1 = 1LUN per Datastore 1 practice

  • Size (size of the incompatible displayed ico file) Windows icons

    Size (size of the incompatible displayed ico file) Windows icons.

    After resizesing my medium to large desktop icons I see several icons are not become larger. Unlike most of my icons, he remained the same size, but instead, they were in the Center and a greyframe. As a result, he started the project of change all the icons in some new. ICO files which would give them the great nice to register in the other size. After that my work was done, I had a nice full Office of the great pretty icons, all of the same size and none inside a gray frame. I reboot (restart) my computer and saw, to my horror, this (see photo) all of a sudden a random amount of icons has chosen to go back to being small and sit inside a gray frame. I don't see any explanation as to what size of icons changed.

    I try to change the display settings for size (control Panel\All Control Panel Items\Display) in 125% and 150%. Both times it switches around which the icons are large and small. so apparently no model at all. I restart again and find 2 icons went big and 4 other small. It's an amazing incompatible and it amazes me why windows this. Why can't keep windows icons (ICO) files to their proper size? (all my ico files support all sizes, as far as I know, and they have developed scale perfectly up down before the 1. Restart)

    It's incredibly frustrating. MY question is. Can I just to force Windows to use the maximum size, or somehow it resolved so that windows will scale icons up and down properly?

    Hi Benjamin,

    Please contact Microsoft Community.

    Just a few questions first, to get a clear picture of the issue;

    1. What is the size of ICO file? Is - this (256 x 256)?

    In Windows 7, App icons and Control Panel items must be in the .ico file format and all should includes following sizes of icons.

    • 16 x 16.
    • 32 x 32.
    • 48 x 48.
    • 256 x 256.

    According to the guidelines of the screenshot, there is a difference in size ofcon I have, I suggest you to download the package of icon for the application you want to change the icons according to the dimensions mentioned above.

    Note: Display in Windows 7 allows you to make text and other items large, such as icons, on the screen you, while keeping your display to its optimal resolution.

    We answer with the result, then we can help you further.

  • Is there a way to extend the layer of text in after effects 2015 beyond two paragraphs (or about 500 characters)?

    I work with a long scroll of text after effects CC 2015.  I'm creating an introduction of 'Star Wars' style based on a sample of YouTube project and I downloaded the file that the author of the project was created and, like my creation of the project, in my copy of AE it displays only the first two paragraphs.  Here is a link to the project of perspective on what I'm looking for: https://youtu.be/_x0ZOYrLiFQ

    The text has three short paragraphs and a total of about 500 characters.  The first two paragraphs show without any problem.  Type anything beyond paragraph 2 does NOT extend the area of text.  The text seems to disappear and the bottom line to the bottom of the text box does not move.  Yes, there is space in my Viewer to see the text I type if the bottom of the text box was extended downwards.

    By dragging the bottom of the text box changes only the font size of the two paragraphs that are visible.

    Is there a way to extend the area of text beyond two paragraphs or 500 characters?  I'm guessing that there is a mystery being here that I'm missing.

    Thank you, Rick.  Here's what I found which deals with this:

    1. Yes, it seems that it there IS a length limit initial with text boxes created in native mode, and it seems to be about two paragraphs or 500 characters (imagine that).
    2. Good news: it is not an absolute limit.  If you use the text tool (instead of the selection tool, as I did), you can drag the bottom handle on the text block to whatever length you want.  Note that from my experience, it was somewhat difficult to grasp it 'so' to be able to extend it.  However, with a few attempts, I was able to do.
    3. Imported text, as you do, seems to be immune to the original deadline, so it is also a workaround.

    I had not had before this project, a text box to the length I had, so I had never known/had to deal with it before now.

    Hope this helps other people who can hit the same rock to have more text to display their original text box will allow.
