Reading file Modification date

In Flash 8, I know there is the FileReference class but it seems to be based around downloading files. Is there a way to read a date of modification of the existing local files only? I have build an executable that loads a .swf file and the .exe has just need to know if the file has been updated. It checks periodically change, ideally. Any help would be appreciated with this. Thank you, Rob

Another thought... his was curious why you need this information...

I can only assume that its because some external process to the projector exe file creates a new SWF every now and then... one with the same name as the one you have loaded.

If so, could you not get this process (whatever that is) to also save a text file with the date and time at the time of the update the swf file?
Flash load this value from the text file when it starts with loadVars and (if you want more persistence a sharedObject allows you to retrieve/store the old value).
Regularly - check the text file and then compare with the old value each time. I know that this approach seems clumsy, but you are quite limited, unless you want to add some additional file systems api via a 3rd party etc. projector tool. Its also difficult to propose an option because I don't know why you need to do this... I'm just guessing.

  • File modification date/time problem

    Hello

    I'm trying to use file of a file modification date/time to fix a system of synchronization between a blackberry and a PC. However, the date/time of the file is not updated as I expected.

    The following occurs:

    -Using a program, a file is modifidied to make more than 100 bytes.

    -> When checking for windows Explorer (using the mass storage mode to access the file) the change date is updated

    -Using the same program, the file is changed to be the shorter of 50 bytes.

    -> When checking for windows Explorer, the change date is NOT updated

    -Using the same program, the file is modified to be more than 20 bytes.

    -> When checking for windows Explorer, the change date is NOT updated

    -Using the same program, the file is modified to be more than 100 bytes. It is now longer that he has never been.

    -> When checking for windows Explorer, the change date is updated

    The code that updates the file is basically something like this:

    FileConnection connection = (FileConnection) Connector.open (fileName, Connector.READ_WRITE);        {if (!) {(Connection.Exists ())}
    Connection.Create ();
    }
    OutputStream out = connection.openOutputStream ();
    Output PrintStream is new PrintStream (out);.
    output.println ("a lot of text ');

    Various printlns... followed

    output. Close();
    out. Close();
    Connection.Close;

    I use a v4.5.0.55 8310 platform, 2.7.0.68.

    BlackBerry JDE 4.5.0.7

    Any ideas what's wrong?

    Kind regards

    Anders

    Yes, delete the file is kind of a workaround. Last updated date/time will be correct. Created date/time will be of course lost, however, since the time created is generally much less important that her last updated date/time is better.

    I ended up doing the following whenever I change a file of Java code:

    FileConnection connection = (FileConnection) Connector.open (fileName, Connector.READ_WRITE);

    {if (Connection.Exists ())}

    Connection.Delete ();
    }
    Connection.Create ();

    Thank you

  • I want out emails in folders of ordinary files, but when I drag-and-drop, the "modification date" gets changed. How I can still see the date?

    To archive my e-mail files until I decided to switch to Thunderbird, I create regular folders in windows and drag and drop emails to outlook express in the appropriate folders. The "update" column displays the original date of the email... which is what I want to do with Thunderbird. In my view, that he treats it as a new file created today... that is not good for my archiving system of these professional work files that I need to find often in approximate date.

    I understand the forum that it is by default in Thunderbird. There is an add-on that can do what I'm doing?

    Thank you in advance,
    Netwon

    I think the reason what OE is the original date because each message is stored in a single file, while TB stores all messages in a folder in a file, an mbox file. Thus, when you save a message as a single eml file, its 'modification date' corresponds to the eml file date was written in the mbox file.

    You can find the ImportExportTools add-on useful because it allows you to add the date of the e-mail eml file name when enamel is exported ("Save selected messages" of the message right-click menu).

    It is an old method, using the utl_file_dir parameter that is now obsolete and which is frankly a waste of space when external tables can do exactly the same thing much more easily.

  • OS 6.5.1 setting of false creation/modification dates

    Just updated to 6.5.1 this morning and suddenly, all files in all directories have been updated with incorrect or false creation and modification dates. Using this one/mult shared defining where we rsync files between local system and the ReadyNAS, we have huge problems that all the files are in conflict. It also seems the files are updated with a user/group of root/root when each file should be owned by our own users.

    Help?

    It seems that the culprit was the Amazon Cloud Drive sync. I think that the reason 6.5.1 exposed the question was it introduced the 'support for two-way synchronization with accounts Amazon Cloud Drive' email release notes I got from Netgear.

    So, if you use the synchronization of Amazon Cloud Drive, I suggest not upgrading to 6.5.1 until you have disabled it. All then maybe after you upgrade, don't turn it back on? I'm not sure. I don't need to use it, so I'll leave it off.

  • global variable functional to read and write data from and to the parallel loops

    Hello!

    Here is the following situation: I have 3 parallel while loops. I have the fire at the same time. The first loop reads the data from GPIB instruments. Second readers PID powered analog output card (software waveform static timed, cc. Update 3 seconds interval) with DAQmx features. The third argument stores the data in the case of certain conditions to the PDM file.

    I create a functional global variable (FGV) with write and read options containing the measured data (30 double CC in cluster). So when I get a new reading of the GPIB loop, I put the new values in the FGV.

    In parallel loops, I read the FGV when necessary. I know that, I just create a race condition, because when one of the loops reads or writes data in the FGV, no other loops can access, while they hold their race until the loop of winner completed his reading or writing on it.

    In my case, it is not a problem of losing data measured, and also a few short drapes in some loops are okey. (data measured, including the temperature values, used in the loop of PID and the loop to save file, the system also has constants for a significant period, is not a problem if the PID loop reads sometimes on values previous to the FGV in case if he won the race)

    What is a "barbarian way" to make such a code? (later, I want to give a good GUI to my code, so probably I would have to use some sort of event management,...)

    If you recommend something more elegant, please give me some links where I can learn more.

    I started to read and learn to try to expand my little knowledge in LabView, but to me, it seems I can find examples really pro and documents (http://expressionflow.com/2007/10/01/labview-queued-state-machine-architecture/ , http://forums.ni.com/t5/LabVIEW/Community-Nugget-2009-03-13-An-Event-based-messageing-framework/m-p/... ) and really simple, but not in the "middle range". This forum and other sources of NEITHER are really good, but I want to swim in a huge "info-ocean", without guidance...

    I'm after course 1 Core and Core 2, do you know that some free educational material that is based on these? (to say something 'intermediary'...)

    Thank you very much!

    I would use queues instead of a FGV in this particular case.

    A driving force that would provide a signal saying that the data is ready, you can change your FGV readme...  And maybe have an array of clusters to hold values more waiting to be read, etc...  Things get complicated...

    A queue however will do nicely.  You may have an understanding of producer/consumer.  You will need to do maybe not this 3rd loop.  If install you a state machine, which has (among other States): wait for the data (that is where the queue is read), writing to a file, disk PID.

    Your state of inactivity would be the "waiting for data".

    The PID is dependent on the data?  Otherwise it must operate its own, and Yes, you may have a loop for it.  Should run at a different rate from the loop reading data, you may have a different queue or other means for transmitting data to this loop.

    Another tip would be to define the State of PID as the default state and check for new data at regular intervals, thus reducing to 2 loops (producer / consumer).  The new data would be shared on the wires using a shift register.

    There are many tricks.  However, I would not recommend using a basic FGV as your solution.  An Action Engine, would be okay if it includes a mechanism to flag what data has been read (ie index, etc) or once the data has been read, it is deleted from the AE. 

    There are many ways to implement a solution, you just have to pick the right one that will avoid loosing data.

  • How read file before executing all the rest in VI

    I use "The measures file read".vi for read read in a file .lvm containing the data I want to use my VI.  I have two different files, I need to read in VI.  When I click "run" prompt appears and I select my file of your choice, then another prompt appears, as well as any other in VI that is located in a while loop, but I don't want something to run in the while loop until the 2nd entry is selected.

    Is there anyway for the program to wait for these two files have been read in?

    These are 'read of the file as' vi I want to enter data with before you have it all to do in VI.

    simply wire the 'error' of the two readings at the edge of the while loop. This creates a dependency on the data and the execution order forces.

    Even easier, remove the local variables and wire directly from playback where data are needed on the inside all loop.

    (Why do you read the same data from the same terminal with each iteration? Makes no sense! Terminals belong outside the loop, unless you expect to change during execution of the loop. Doesn't it?  You can reach the whole VI? The table actually used as a control by the user? If not, do an indicator.)

  • How to read file returned by the file picker

    I'm going to obviously stupid here, but for the life of me I can't figure out how read in a text file returned by the file picker.  I am currently getting the good full path of the file in the file picker but where do I go from here?  BlackBerry.IO.file does not seem to exist in Blackberry 10 and I'm confused as to how I would use the HTML5 File API from only a file returned by the file picker path.

    Can someone please spit out a quick and dirty example showing me the rudiments of reading in the data file from a path returned by the file picker, please?

    Thank you very much

    DM

    Don't know if you have the path to the file, and then you left there. One thing to note. The file MUST be inside you bar (sandbox) OR you need to add the <> ermit > access_sharedermit >
    and then he can live the file in the shared folder on the device.

    Here is a code that you can use to read a file. I poached it our docs found here:https://developer.blackberry.com/html5/apis/blackberry.io.html

    
    
  • Read or write data in excel

    Hello

    I wanted to know if it is possible to read or write data in excel programmatically? And if possible how to do this?

    I searched a lot on this subject. All forums say how Sung some software. What I wanted to do is, I want to create an application in which I might be able to write data to excel and also read data from excel. Specifically, I can do Java using some jxl. Is there something similar to that?

    Please help me on this since it is a very urgent need for my client.

    Thanks in advance.

    There is no API to write files to Excel on the BB, and I think you will find that this jxl use J2SE functionality that is not supported on the BB, it will be difficult for this port.

    If you plan to be able to put an Excel worksheet on the SD card on the BlackBerry and directly using these data, there still, sorry this is not supported.

    I would investigate export Excel data to SQL and then using SQL on the BlackBerry.

  • In CloverETL how to read file xlsx with a column of type "long".

    I think the 256 character limit is a red herring.  All data is there, the front-end integrator is truncating only for display purposes.

    Your data is a string, it should certainly be classified as a string in the metadata.  For a long time is for numeric values.

    I don't think there is a problem here, if you were to write this data to the trash or a text file (after reading it in), you will see that your data is not truncated.
